[Ontoseismic]

Hello. So I was reading through the Hyperspace Lexicon and found an entry of particular interest. It was the characterisation of a bizarre experience I had whilst smoking DMT roughly 18 months ago.

The entry I read I put as my user name: Ontoseismic

For those not familiar with it, allow me to quote.

When entering hyperspace for the first time, or entering deeper levels of hyperspace for the first time, there can be a "psychedelic shock". The paradigms and worldimage of the individual is shattered, obviously no longer 'works' in these realms, and the individual traveler is left with empty hands staring at the fragments of what he formerly knew as 'truth'. This experience can, in the first moments, be seemingly traumatic because of the inabiltity of the traveler to process his experience, leading to the feeling of being absolutely overwhelmed. Yet, when the traveler can reach a certain inner concentration, a firmness, while being and experiencing these newer and deeper levels of truth, the psychedelic shock turns out to be utterly freeing. The paradox is that the experience has the disturbing effect of a trauma, yet the cause of the trauma is an Platonic experience of total truth, beauty and love (see also kalonkinesioöptic ). The experience is intenser and deeper than 'mindblowing', 'disturbing' lacks the insight&beauty that accompanies the experience. Ontoseismic is composed of a merging of 'ontos' (greek for 'being') and 'seismos' (earthquake, from 'seiein' (greek for 'to shake').

This is exactly what I experienced. I liken it somewhat to being hit by a truck.

It jarred me enough to have me give away almost a gram of beautiful DMT. Of quality I will likely never find again, but this was a nice thing to do none the less. From what I understand there were a lot of beautiful experiences had.

Anyway. I feel better having realised that I'm not the only one this has happened to, and that someone figured out how to describe it.

I shall be travelling shortly Thanks for having me on the nexus.

Hello Ontoseismic,

Welcome to the Nexus. Thank you for that Introduction Essay. When I read that definition, I smiled and said to myself, "Heh - I'll bet a lot of Nexians have felt that way." It was a great description and one that I personally did not remember encountering in the Hyperspace Lexicon area.

Sounds like you have started taking a good look around here, which is always a good idea. This place is chock full of well-researched information, as well as amazing trip reports, funny links, cool art, etc. I hope you will like what you see.

So, did you just have that one amazing experience about 18 months ago? Was it smoked or oral? Did you extract your own DMT? Have you tried it since? What other psychedelics had you tried?

Anything else you like to share with us so that we can get to know you a little better would be great, .

Again, welcome to the Nexus.

It was about 50mg of beautiful DMT crystal, white and flakey. Smoked through a bong with no water, cannabis on the top and bottom. I acquired it through a dealer but as I said I gave most of it away. My friend has one dose left for me, I think I'll be smoking it over Easter at a transformational festival.

I very rapidly smoked a joint of changa shared with that same friend, and it produced a BEAUTIFUL but mild experience that was sort of shared. The life within all matter became very apparent in this crystalline sort of sheet. It was a really interesting experiment. This DMT was given to me as a gift.

I started (and continued) my psychedelic career so to speak with LSD. A beautiful and yet abrasive and perplexing drug that never ceases to amaze me. I always sense the personality of the Jester in my LSD experience.

I've had incredible experiences doing self directed casual sort of emotional counselling with MDMA, and the combination of LSD and MDMA. Almost always ends positively for me.

Mushrooms have always been like a role of the dice to me, and have a dark shadow side. That being said I'm extremely excited for the upcoming season.

These many experiences have led me to a great passion for the responsible use of psychedelic drugs. I'm the kind of guy who takes LSD to work through my recent thought patterns rather than see the pretty colours (although it wasn't always this way), or rather than take MDMA at a rave and dance (although also really fun) I feel it's better used in small amounts to aid powerful and life changing conversations with fellow loved ones.

That Ontoseismic experience was very bizarre. I remember physically getting up out of my chair and trying to get the hell out of it, I was literally thrown back down as if with the force of a full grown human and was telepathically communicated with. This is what I wanted, so this is what I was getting and I was going to have to deal with it. I did it so callously. A momentary lapse of patience and judgement taught me a VERY good lesson.

After I accepted this, a warm glowing light filled me, a Buddha gyroscopically unfurled behind my eye lids as if saying, find your peace then come back.

Since then my psychedelic ventures turned into spiritual ventures. Alan Watts was a fantastic and well found guide to help integrate the experience.

I smoke a fairly large amount of Cannabis and also revisited this experience when I accidentally got very, very, very high in the same place. It was if someone took the flash of hyperspace and stretched it out and slowed it down in order for me to navigate the previous experience slower and more carefully to really get the message.

Anyway on I ramble. Thanks again guys This is indeed a fascinating corner of the internet.

PS I'm 20 years of age also. I suppose that's relevant. Had a very sudden shift from being very against drug use thanks to the bad examples of an addict relative, to realising that the issue was not one that was black and white. Oh, quite the contrary
