Dimethyltryptamine have been identified as normal constituents of human blood, urine,cerebrospinal fluid.Dimethyltryptamine is an N-methylated indoleamine derivative, a serotonergic hallucinogen.It apparently acts as an agonist at some types of serotonin receptors and an antagonist at others.DMT is traditionally associated with indigenous Amazonian people, who consume a bitter decoction of at least two types of plant material, known as ayahuasca.
DMT is capable of transporting the user, within seconds, to what appears to be a fully autonomous alternate reality.
There is term called consensus reality the world we live in an imagination of our brain. DMT is capable of building this alternate reality with which in normal circumstances we don't feel or perceive it. DMT can cause such dramatic shifts in consciousness, such that completely novel worlds appear.Our brain use various approaches,to create a mental field which gives a unified world and these two can be classified as functional segregation and integration. As humans we are very much visual creatures and the cortex region of our brain helps us in doing that. Our brain continues to develop, changes throughout life and across the span of evolutionary time. It becomes absolutely critical in determining how the brain interprets and categorizes sensory information and thus builds the consensus world and we reach a point where our brain can create or is capable of building worlds without extrinsic influence or data.
These are the findings that were reported from the DMT studies
1.Hallucination—visual, physical, auditory;
2.Entering other realities, sometimes including having contact with other sentient beings, which were described as true or real experiences rather than hallucinations;
4. Affective distortions;
6. Extreme intensity;
7. Spirituality, learning, or being taught about truths of the universe or self;
8. Distortion in sense of time, space, self;
9. Sense of familiarity
This is also being reported by research group.
- Merry-go-rounds, fairgrounds, clowns/jesters, circuses;
– Mischievous or playful elves/dwarves/imps;
– Insectoid and reptilian creatures, aliens;
– Futuristic hypertechnological buildings and cities;
– Complex machinery, hyper-advanced technology;
– Being observed and/or experimented upon;
– Unknown places apparently on Earth.
So due all these mechanisms and effect of DMT I can say that when we are on the verge of our death our brain produces DMT in higher amounts in order to ease the pain which I assume and at the same time the alternate reality or the alien reality is something which is not yet thoroughly investigated. So I would say if an alternate world exist where humans go after death then DMT is the molecule which helps in doing it.
