[quote:1b3f07217b="XENONSION"]a breakththrough is breaking through the veil. the veil is like a large wall of geometric shapes..rotating and changing. morping and spinning around. sometimes it looks sort of dome shaped (the dmt dome) when you breakthrough, you reach the other side of this veil, smash through it. This is where the elves and other creatures lurk. Things on the other side seem just as real as anything. You are totally enveloped in this world. You can't open your eyes and make it go away. You are in a trance.[/quote:1b3f07217b] I thought that people encounter "the dmt dome" once they've broken through the veil, not that the veil itself consists of it. Mckenna says: [i:1b3f07217b]When you break into this space, you have several impressions simultaneously that are a kind of gestalt: First of all (and why, I don't know) you have the impression that you are underground - far underground - you can't say why, but there's just this feeling of immense weight above you but you're in a large space, a vaulted dome. People even call it 'The DMT dome' I have said, had people say to me, "Have you been under the dome?" and I knew exactly what they meant.[/i:1b3f07217b]
