DMT: The Spirit Molecule (2010)
Every now and then, humankind experiences leaps and bounds into a higher level of knowledge, maybe not so much of wisdom. Still, they discover, one by one, about things around them; the laws of motion, thermodynamics, nuclear fission and fusion and quantum physics. The more they learn, the more they realise that there are things that they do not know! Perhaps they should now look inwards, introspect into their good selves to reach heights beyond their wildest dreams. DMT seems to be the linking bridge towards this end.
DMT, N, N-dimethyltryptamine, is a compound widely found in nature; in plants and animals alike. It has a ring structure with four attachable poles and is converted to tryptophan, a building block of life. Scientists are wondering if it is indeed the common language between beings.
Dr Rick Strassman, who spent a good five years of his life experimenting on this hallucinogenic agent which is an analogue of serotonin and melatonin. As it alters perception and consciousness, it is said to be somehow involved in our of body experiences, alien abduction, communication with alien life forms and perhaps understand birth, life, death and even God! Practitioners of Kabbalah and even Descartes pointed to the pineal gland as a gateway to Divinity and a bedrock of morality and understanding life.
In humans, DMT originates in the pineal gland and is secreted in certain situations. Interestingly, all over the Hindu scriptures, the pineal gland is the centre of the human energy and one who can control that organ, which appears as the third eye in Lord Shiva, has attained divine realm. The pineal gland is also the highest of chakra of Man's inner energy. Being the organ with the highest rate blood flow and rudimentary photopigment cells, it may indeed open the mystical third eye to more significant inspiration, intuition, and inner vision to improve our existence.
DMT potions have been prepared by Native Americans for shamanic rituals for ages. Their hallucinogenic drink, Ayahuasca, helps to create a psychedelic experience that forms a doorway to a plane quite different than our dormant pure mind can comprehend. Aztec descendants still brew this concoction for their annual ultramarathons in the deserts.
Of late there has been a resurgence of usage of psychedelic drugs in medical treatment. After marijuana has been accepted for treatments of uncontrollable childhood seizures and terminal cancer patients, psilocybin (mushroom) and LSD are lobbied to be returned to mainstream use, not so much as for recreational reasons but for specific indications like bipolar disease and as a form cognitive therapy. Latest studies even find it not as addictive as previously thought. Nobel prizes winners, like Francis Crick, used LSD to explore the secrets to the seed of life. Steve Jobs and Beatles' members are great uses of this drug for their creativity and groundbreaking feats in human history.
“All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.” -Arthur Schopenhauer, 1788-1860.
