About this listen
A clinical psychiatrist explores the effects of DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known.
- A behind-the-scenes look at the cutting edge of psychedelic research.
- Provides a unique scientific explanation for the phenomenon of alien abduction experiences.
From 1990 to 1995 Dr. Rick Strassman conducted U.S. Government-approved and funded clinical research at the University of New Mexico in which he injected 60 volunteers with DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known. His detailed account of those sessions is an extraordinarily riveting inquiry into the nature of the human mind and the therapeutic potential of psychedelics. DMT, a plant-derived chemical found in the psychedelic Amazon brew, ayahuasca, is also manufactured by the human brain. In Strassman's volunteers, it consistently produced near-death and mystical experiences. Many reported convincing encounters with intelligent nonhuman presences, aliens, angels, and spirits. Nearly all felt that the sessions were among the most profound experiences of their lives.
Strassman's research connects DMT with the pineal gland, considered by Hindus to be the site of the seventh chakra and by Rene Descartes to be the seat of the soul. DMT: The Spirit Molecule makes the bold case that DMT, naturally released by the pineal gland, facilitates the soul's movement in and out of the body and is an integral part of the birth and death experiences, as well as the highest states of meditation and even sexual transcendence. Strassman also believes that "alien abduction experiences" are brought on by accidental releases of DMT. If used wisely, DMT could trigger a period of remarkable progress in the scientific exploration of the most mystical regions of the human mind and soul.

Amazing
Rick Strassman MD absolutely amazing work. It’s a shame that there is still so much controversy behind psychedelics. A great insight into DMT. I’ve done Ayahuasca a few times it is the best medicine for my chronic pain and severe depressive disorder.
What’s a damn shame is how many people during the 60s to now have lived difficult lives due to the ignorance of others who disagree with the use of psychedelics.

Looking forward to more Strassman
I was pleasantly surprised to see Strassman's perspective dance so delicately between the scientific, spiritual, and otherworldly. It has left me wanting more, and should be required reading for anyone actually wanting to conduct scientific experiments in this field (if only to hear about Strassman's own pioneering experience). The narrator was mostly suitable in an inoffensive sort of way, but with some odd pronunciation of a few words repeatedly (treating some nouns as verbs).

Whether You Have Tried DMT Or Not...
... this book will be fascinating either way. The book is methodical and takes you all the way through a fascinating multi year study into DMT.
I love the epilogue, and wonder what some of the participants could be doing now. I think the content would be accessable to most people regardless of your background.
Enjoy!

An Excellent Read
A very interesting analysis of DMT and psychedelics from a scientific and spiritual view, explaining the hows and whys of the trip experiences. I love the theory link to quantum theory and multiverses.
The story seems to waffle on a bit in the beginning but then I realised later that this was to explain the analysis approaches and later.
Definitely a great listen and helps to make sense of the purpose of life and beyond.
