N,N-Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is a psychedelic tryptamine. Dimethyltryptamine is widely regarded to be the most powerful hallucinagenic drug known to man. It is generally extracted from plants. DMT is normally either smoked in it’s pure form, or taken orally as part of a drink called ayahuasca.
DMT’s effects are more bizarre than can possibly be described by human language.
Reports often include: transportation to other planes of existence, contact with non-human entities, profound spiritual experiences, and open-eye hallucinations of impossibly complex geometric displays. Surprisingly however, DMT is widely unheard of, even among the psychedelic community. Visions are similiar to the artwork on our site, which where drawn by a shaman Pablo Amaringo. These where his visions during ritual ceremonys using ayahuasca.
The first art of mankind, in the painted caves and rock-shelters of southwest Europe and South Africa, dates back to the time of the great change. Why do these ancient paintings, tens of thousands of years old, depict beings of a kind that are never found in nature – strange and eerie hybrids with the heads of animals and the bodies of humans?
Every human being has DMT in their body.
It is thought that DMT is produced by the pineal gland, located in the center of your brain. The pineal gland itself has historically been shrouded in mystery. It has been called "The Seat of the Soul" by renaissance philosophers, and "The Third Eye" by Tibetan monks. In certain species of reptiles, the pineal gland is an actual light sensing eye, with a cornea, retina, and lens. It has been suggested that the pineal gland releases dimethyltryptamine during sleep (partially in response to low light levels) and that DMT plays a major role in visual dreaming, as DMT levels in the brain are higher during REM sleep. DMT levels in the brain are also higher than usual during birth and death. It is also theorized that spontaneous, natural DMT releases are responsible for near death experiences, natural mystical states, and even reports of alien abduction. Dr. Rick Strassman (born 1952 in Los Angeles, California, United States [1]) began the first new human research with psychedelic, or hallucinogenic, drugs in the United States in over 20 years. These studies investigated the effects of N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), an extremely short-acting and powerful psychedelic produced by the human brain and an active ingredient in ayahuasca, an entheogenic brew consumed by Latin American indigenous peoples as part of religious ceremonies. During the project’s five years, he administered approximately 400 doses of DMT to 60 human volunteers. This research took place at the University of New Mexico’s School of Medicine in Albuquerque, where he was tenured Associate Professor of Psychiatry. Strassman has conjectured that when a person is approaching death, the pineal gland releases DMT, thus accounting for much of the imagery reported by survivors of near-death experiences.
DMT-containing plants have been used in South American shamanic practices for thousands of years.Ayahuasca is used largely as a religious sacrament, no matter which culture it is associated with. Those whose usage of ayahuasca is performed in non-traditional contexts often align themselves with the philosophies and cosmologies associated with ayahuasca shamanism, as practiced among indigenous peoples like the Urarina of Peruvian Amazonia.Ayahuasca was made more widely known by Terence and Dennis McKenna’s experiences with Amazonian tribes as detailed in the book Invisible Landscape, which they co-authored. Their journey to the rainforest to search for Ayahuasca was spurred by their reading of Burroughs and Ginsberg. Dennis later extensively studied the pharmacology, botany, and chemistry of ayahuasca and oo-koo-he, which were the subjects of his master’s thesis.
In the depths of the Amazon rainforest tribal shamans drink a powerful hallucinogenic brew called Ayahuasca (“the vine of souls”) in order to induce visions. When they return to normal consciousness, after experiencing what they believe is out-of-body travel in the spirit world, they make paintings of the “intelligent beings” they have encountered. Why are many of these beings also depicted as uncanny hybrids with the heads of animals or serpents and the bodies of humans? And why do the shamans say that they have taught them everything they know about how to live in the jungle, and about the medicinal value of rainforest plants? Why do Western lab volunteers, placed experimentally under the influence of hallucinogens such as DMT, psilocybin, mescaline and LSD, report visionary encounters with “beings” in the form of animal-human hybrids – beings identical to those the Amazonian shamans claim to meet and to those painted by our ancestors in the prehistoric caves?
Why have eminent scientists at the cutting edge of consciousness research, especially those who study the ways that hallucinogens work in the brain, recently begun to question long-established theories about the nature of reality? Why are some now even ready to consider the possibility, long ago embraced by shamans, that, far from being “false perceptions”, what we see in the strange imagery and experiences of hallucinations may be real perceptions of other “dimensions” and the beings inhabiting them? Could the “supernaturals” first depicted in the ancient painted caves and rock shelters – and still accessible to us today in altered states of consciousness – be the ancient teachers of mankind? Could it be they who first ushered us into the full birthright of our humanity? And could it be that human evolution is not just the “blind”, “meaningless” “natural” process that Darwin identified, but something else, more purposive and intelligent, that we have barely even begun to understand?
Dimethyltryptamine is illegal in the US, UK, and Canada.
