From what I have read,DMT is only present in large quantities in our bodies when we are born,and when we are dying.I can't verify that,but do find it interesting!

From my understanding, it is always there in large quantities, but it increases at night during REM sleep, leading to theories that astral travel, dreams and so on are really just heightened DMT levels...Originally Posted by Captain Beyond
Anyone interested should read the Lycaeum I posted, and check out everything by Terrance McKenna, especially his talks in universities.
Alpha, do you make a distinction between psychedelics? Psilocybin vs. DMT?

Did psychedelic drugs inspire art, religion ?
Hallucinogens such as magic mushrooms and DMT may have been responsible for the wondrous cave art of the Upper Paleolithic, and even ultimately the rise of modern human behaviour. That's the opinion of Graham Hancock, the best-selling author of 'Fingerprints of the Gods', who is famed for his alternative ideas about ancient history. In his new book 'Supernatural', Hancock explores the 'neuropsychological model' of cave art, proposed by South African scholar David Lewis-Williams. In this theory, which is now gaining wide acceptance, geometric symbols and drawings of therianthropic beings are equated to the visions seen by shamans while in altered states of consciousness.As part of the research for his book, Hancock ingested both psilocybin mushrooms and ayahuasca - the shamanic brew of the Amazonian jungle. His experiences led to him to question the current paradigm's conception of what 'reality' is composed of, and how we as humans have discovered new ideas and evolved our thinking. He points at the strange fact that Frances Crick - the discoverer of the double-helix structure of DNA - made his breakthrough in a sudden instant of realisation while under the influence of LSD.
In a wide-ranging interview in 'Sub Rosa' magazine (http://subrosa.dailygrail.com), a free PDF magazine designed to professional standards, Hancock decried the current laws regarding psychedelic drugs. "It's absurd and crazy", he said, "in countries which call themselves advanced and democratic, that there should exist medieval laws that will send people to prison for years, simply for exploring their own consciousness."Other parts of the book explore the alien abduction phenomenon in the spirit of Jacques Vallee's pioneering investigation in 'Passport to Magonia', as well as the idea that our DNA may carry a message designed by our creator - whoever that is.

Had my first Ayahuasca experience last year on November, guys this thing is so powerful , I mean it, you know you are not the same person after this experience.Well I had a very bad experience; I was trapped into a strange world, maybe a dual reality. Although it was a bad experience, I was happy because it showed me many aspect of life, of my body and energies.
Impact : I don’t take alcohol anymore ( I take care of my aura)

P. S. - A "DMT (Dimethyltryptamine)" journey is my ‘consciousness expansion’, chemical brain endorphin of choice, of which I've yet to experience.
Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), also known as N,N-dimethyltryptamine, not to be confused with 5-MeO-DMT, is a psychedelic tryptamine, similar in structure to the neurotransmitter serotonin. DMT is created in small amounts by the human body during normal metabolism[1] by the enzyme Tryptamine-N-methyltransferase. Pure DMT at room temperature is a clear or white crystalline solid. DMT was first chemically synthesized in 1931. It also occurs naturally in many species of plants. DMT-containing plants are used in several South American shamanic practices. It is one of the main active constituents of snuffs like yopo and of the drink ayahuasca.

Arcturiah, thanks for sharing this.
If you're comfortable, I'd like to hear more about your experience...where did this happen?....any details that you can or will share.
I haven't hear about negative experiences so far, although I know they exist.
David Icke talked about his experiences back in 2004. Some of you may find this of interest.

Daring Discussions with David Icke - Living in a Dream World
Excerpt:
"I remember saying to my wife when I was coming to the end of the book before the last one – Alice in Wonderland and the World Trade Center Disaster -- that if I was going to go to the next stage of understanding all this, I had to experience other realms. And not in some dream state in sleep like ‘did I really experience that?’ but actually in solid awareness. And as coincidence would have it, I was invited, just after I finished that book, to go to the Amazon Rain Forest in January of 2003 and take something called Ayahuasca which is a plant – a rain forest plant – which they turn in to what they call a turn and Shaman in South America have been using it for centuries at least to take people into other realms of reality.
I could have taken it (Ayahuasca) about four times but I took it twice and it was an experience – particularly on the 2nd night – that completely transformed my view of life. What it did was take my intellectual understanding o that the world is an illusion into the realms of knowing it’s an illusion and there’s a difference between intellectually understanding it’s an illusion and this level of knowing it because you’ve experienced it. I got to the age of 50 without taking a single magic mushroom and I never even had one smoke of pot or anything. I’ve never taken any of this stuff but I just felt that the synchronicity of this whole situation - I was going to go with it. So I took it and on the first night I took this tea that tasted a bit like licorice and for about 2 hours or so, I went into other realms and some amazing things happened.
First of all, I felt this enormous energy coming out of the heart chakra area, or into the heart chakra area and then out again in an arch to my head and it was so clear feeling that arch of energy from my heart chakra to my head and other energy coming into the heart chakra. I was in this dark room – just me and a guy who was observing me and who is an expert in this whole Ayahuasca stuff --- and suddenly out of no where, this strip light came on, and then a 2nd one and then a 3rd one. The energy in the room was extraordinary!
I remember laying there. What happens when you take Ayahuasca is when you close your eyes, you’re in another realm and when you open them , you are back in five sense reality and it’s very very interesting to observe the two. . What happens, however, is your eyes don’t want to stay open that long. They want to close, so you go back to where you were. But I remember opening my eyes and seeing these strip lights coming on and thinking what the heck is the guy turning the lights on for? It turns out he hadn’t. He hadn’t touched the strip lights at all. They’d come on all on their own. And the music he was playing – that kept stopping and starting without him doing anything to it., so the re was a tremendous energy in the room.
Over that night and particularly on the 2nd night, where I went into this other state of awareness for like five hours, a voice spoke to me. It was a very clear female voice or a female form is what it took as clear as mine is now in which it talked to me for all these hours about the nature of reality and how we create it. It was pointing out that this world we think is real is actually an illusion generated by our minds and, not least, generated by our belief in what is real.
Basically, what we believe to be real is what we experience as real.
But it’s just a figment of our imagination.
And the “Matrix” as I refer to it (and the voice referred to it as the Matrix as well) is actually a gigantic thought form which we got caught in and what’s catching us in the web, if you like, is that we think what we’re experiencing here – what we’re seeing - is real.
And, as it was pointing out, the only difference between the dreams we have in sleep and the dream we’re having now is we take this dream to be real. And illusions can only control us when we think they are real. When we know they’re illusions , they lose their control over us. And so we’re living in a world that is so similar to the world portrayed in the first matrix movie - a world in which we’re in a dream world that we think is real."

I am skeptical about drug induced experiences being presented as glimpses through a keyhole of truth... I find their stories interesting, but I just don't know.
WATCHER
Arcturiah, I am very much interested in your own experience with the 'Ayahuasca' vine.
Actually, 'we' are interested.
* * *
Note to all: This is a site where humans can go to read about the personal experiences of other humans, and therefor, vicariously, 'live through' the same experience themselves.
It is my belief that this is the main reason for writing: To spread human lore, for both current fellow kind and posterity, so that we who aren't as fortunate, or unfortunate, to experience 'first hand' what is written before us can at least go through the same emotions, the same grandeur, the same drama, the same pain, etc.; experience what the writer went through, so that we ourselves can also be enlightened.
I, myself, have gone though the intense trauma of Salvia Divinorum and I'm NOT going back. But I know that what I learned while 'trapped' within it's EXTREMELY non-negotiable hold on me, others also should know, so that they can 'go there' without having to personally suffer. . . and I am most SERIOUS here. . . .
I save that post for a time when I am can ably reach that far, down deep in side of myself and bring it into the light for you all to behold and consider.
I've heard of youngsters, minors that be, committing suicide over Salvia Divinorum use, and I, being who I am, had to see why. . . .
I will relate to you, as best I can, my life-changing experience with it in the very near future.
If you are of timid mind, please don't try it - just wait for me to explain and ‘provide’ that. . . that. . . Jesus, I have no words for it at this moment.
Just give me some time. . . and know that I love you. . . .

(Also, Alpha has posted info on David Icke above. My personal advice to you is to be most studious with his works. If nothing else, his writings will allow you to view our world in a way that has been purposefully hidden from you. You don't have to 'believe', just consider the possibilities.)
Waiiting for your recount Terras, whenever you are ready.
