Psychedelic Experiences

People who undergo psychedelic ego-death with DMT, across vastly different cultures and religions, consistently describe the same experience — their human self completely dissolving, then becoming a bright boundless light or energy, which is often one with everything, and emits total unconditional love.

This page contains the stories from the individual psychonauts I’ve found so far that report this incredible experience. I believe most people around the world that take enough DMT will experience something like this — and that this tells us something incredibly profound about that molecule, the mind, and potentially the nature of God and ultimate reality.

Especially because, as I will continue to stress, this experience isn’t unique to DMT trips. It pops up across completely different paths — from past-life regressions, near-death experiences, mystical union with God in religions, 👁‍🗨remote viewings, and even spontaneous mystical experiences after a difficult situation or during everyday activity. This is the pattern, this is the connection, and this is the viewpoint from those who experience it after taking one of the most potent and mysterious psychedelic molecules in the world, one that’s even potentially found naturally in the human brain…

5-Meo-DMT (variant of DMT), also known as “The God Molecule”

5-Meo-DMT (5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine) is likely the most potent psychedelic in the world. It’s a natural psychedelic found in certain plants and most famously, the venom of the Sonoran Desert toad (Incilius alvarius). Often called the "God molecule", it causes almost instantaneous ego-death and profound mystical experiences.

Scuba instructor takes Toad poison containing 5-Meo-DMT — says he “died” — became “light and energy” — when returned felt “born again.”

Neuroscientist Christof Koch takes 5-Meo-DMT — experiences ego-death — becomes a “singularity” or “a point of radiant energy” perceived as “white light” — feels “terror and bliss,” and just “being.”

Nikolai takes 5-Meo-DMT — experiences “brilliant light” that’s “overflowing with unconditional love.”

Ayahuasca Tea (contains N,N-DMT), also known as “The Vine of the Soul”

Ayahuasca is a psychedelic tea made from a vine (caapi) and leaves (chacruna). The leaves contain DMT, while the vine contains compounds that act as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), which block the body from breaking down DMT. When brewed together, the vine allows the DMT to reach the central nervous system, creating the profound psychedelic experience. The term “Ayahuasca,” literally means "vine of the soul" in its original Quechua language. Traditionally, the tea was used in South American healing and spiritual ceremonies as far back as 1,000 years ago.

Digital marketing agency owner drinks ayahuasca in the Amazon — experiences “dying at least 100 times” — then reaching an “unending loving creation.”

Neo-shaman drinks Ayahuasca — experiences “ego-death” — then becomes “bubble of light in an ocean of light” — feeling complete “bliss.”

N,N-DMT (regular DMT), also known as “The Spirit Molecule”

Person takes DMT — experiences “shimmering, vibrating darkness” described as “the same thing as the white light.”

Michael smokes DMT — “spirit leaves body” — then is “consumed by a white light that came from everywhere.”

Tony smokes DMT — consciousness “floats out of body” — then experiences “loving union with everything.”
