DMT: The Spirit Molecule Page #7

Synopsis: The Spirit Molecule investigates dimethyltryptamine (DMT), an endogenous psychoactive compound, which exists in humans and numerous species of plants and animals. The documentary traces Dr. Rick Strassman's government-sanctioned, human DMT research and its many trials, tribulations, and inconceivable realizations. A closer examination of DMT's effects through the lens of two traditionally opposed concepts, science and spirituality, The Spirit Molecule explores the connections between cutting-edge neuroscience, quantum physics, and human spirituality. Strassman's research, and the experiences of the human test subjects before, during, and after the intense clinical trials, raises many intriguing questions. A variety of experts voice their unique thoughts and experiences with DMT within their respective fields. As Strassman's story unfolds, the contributors weigh in on his remarkable theories, including the synthesis of DMT in our brain's pineal gland, its link to near-death & alien-abdu

It's instructive, it's more supportive of futury evolution and the creation of future

and it is in itself, more of a mistery.

How could this little stuff produce something that

has intelligence.

It is actually a doorway to another reality.

So, what is the nature of reality?

And what is the nature of how we, as human beings experience it?

Can we understand it better?

Are we capable of understanding reality on some very fundamental levels?

And what we need to do in order to prepare for that?

You know, there are parallel universes, it seems, at least that's the theory in modern physics.

There is dark matter, which is

a huge amount of the matter of the universe, perhaps 95% or more.

It's radical a ideas just a logical extension in some ways of a

instead of using a machine to see more than we normally can see,

we're using the brain.

There are fields which are undiscovered so far

which have nothing to do with anything that is discovered so far.

The gravitational field, you know,

was unknown before the year 1604.

The electromagnetic field

unknown before the year 1830 or something.

All of these, what we call fundamental fields of mathematical physics

are new discoveries.

Dark energy is even newer discovery and beyond that are

maybe more discoveries yet coming beyond our cosmos itself,

and higher dimensions as they say.

I still don't have very much use for the concept of God

but I do believe that there are higher levels, transcendent levels of reality

and I'm now actually now starting to really believe that

the brain is not the source of consciousness,

it's not really who we are but

it's more like a radio tuner for something way bigger.

Are these experiences "spiritual experiences" or

otherwise are they created by physiological processes or

is the brain itself responding to something that's going on?

And the fact that somebody may actually find a way of "turning on" their brain

to spiritual experiences.

Again, I'm not sure that this necessarily diminishes the reality

or the realness of what these experiences are about.

If the pharmacology or psychopharmacology of

psychedelic experiences turn up to be

essentially the same as religious or spiritual experiences,

it would help us to understand where these experiences are occuring within the human brain.

I'm actually quite, quite convinced

that we're probing the biological basis of moral and ethical behavior,

I think that these primary religious experiences

really are a bed rock of the world's religions.

The research and knowledge, speculation about the pineal body and DM

is in fact

the hand of God, that is interacting with our natural evolution

to stimulate and accelerate the process of redemption

of individual and of collective global enlightment.

Because of my ayahuasca experiences I consider myself a

spiritual person, I know things now that I could never have known otherwise.

These experiences, so familiar for a lot of different people

and it's so easily aquired

and so much information come with so little effort, that it is a kind of a miracle,

it's a miraculous way for us to transcend ordinary reality and obtain

maybe an intimation of what's necessary for survival.

Ranging from new forms of medical treatment

to a better understanding of the Universe

to life changing spiritual revelations,

these natural tools offer us the ability to seek greater knowledge.

Tools that can positively effect life on our planet.

Let's answer Dr Strassman's question.

If so ... so what?

Because of the collapse of consciousness

spiritual and scientific knowledge split apart.

Both these modes of knowing have to come together in order to science and technology

from a traditional religious perspective is not an extra,

it is part of the process by which humanity is going to evolve into its next stage.

How do we find like the right form for psychedelics in the future?

Asssuming that psychedelics are part of the human future

at the moment they're still, you know, generally repressed and suppressed and illegal.

If that were to change,

how would we begin to construct a kind of a

system that would allow for, for kind of rational and mature exploration of the psychedelics?

I think that the name of the game is to

show science the pertinence of this somewhat outlandish realm.

It's not just crazy stuff.

It shouldn't be considered as, let's say, not even worthy of interest or illegitimate,

I actually think because it's

declared off bounds, it just makes it interesting to with start.

But one doesn't want to throw the baby with the bath water

and I think it's really important to

stay faithful to science.

What does it mean? why is there a part of the brain that seems to be

for lack of a better word "a God-detector"? You know.

What's the evolutionary advantage to having some part of the brain

that seems to, you know,

trigger and mediate experiences of the transcendent?.

The Kabbalah is revealing to us that the pineal body is actually

is the very edge of the higher dimension that is

penetrating into our lower dimension, and it is located

precisely in the middle of the brain

I can remember reading about Descartes,

thinking that is was actually the interface between

the spiritual dimension and the dimension of matter.

I remember studying that as a foolish idea from our history

and now it seems actually like a very interesting idea.

What we are looking for out there

is really in here.

It is the doorway, it is the gate.

So we focus on the transformative effect of the psychedelics

but it's also true, the reverse is true that

it requires transformation in order to

embrace psychedelics. You know.

It's one of the tricky paradoxes of postmodernism,

that psychedelics both require and produce a transformative effect.

We have severed our connection to spirit.

That's what our society has done,

it is sort to persuade us that the material realm is the only realm,

and the only way we're going to recover it is to reconnect with spirit.

And I truelly believe we need the help of the plants in order to do that.

Part of our work is to respect these, these medicines and then

to change the culture enough that, that people

doing them can be respected and healed and

not everybody

needs to do them, not everybody should or wants to but

there it isn't pushed to the side and so part of that

does involve then research, because that's how in our

reductionist society we validate things.

With the passing of the years, and the opportunity for sober reflection, I think

there's a groving appreciation that there may be something to gain

from studying these compounds,

there's a lot we can learn and there

may very well be treatment models, particularly for patient populations

for whom conventional treatments are ineffective,

for whom the psychedelic model were utilized optimally, may provide great benefit.

I think the most important thing that we could do right now that would be
