Neuroscientist Describes Her DMT Trip

Migrated topic.
All in all, not a bad trip report. It'll be interesting to see how much circulation this kind of thing gets under the reset.me platform.
 
Thanks for sharing that it was interesting and she described it well. It was also interesting to note that she was raised Catholic and percieved part of her experience as being part of the last supper and heaven she also mentioned gods, another religious connection. Ingrained religous conditioning? Or just the only thing she could relate it to? Who know...nice to see her perspective on her own proffession changed.
 
I think background has a lot to do with it... People raised in heavily religious backgrounds naturally will use that language set to describe a transcendental experience. it's only natural... Whereas those of us raised in secular households are more likely to use language that is maybe a little more sci-fi. There are really no words for the experience- we use what we've got.

I'm not sure about that. I've seen both sides of the transcendental spectrum. I've seen a godhead infused with technological elements, with white light, etc...but I've also had experiences that were like sunsets in the clouds of purples, pinks and golds with harps gloriously arpeggiating...I wasn't raised Catholic, but I was raised Jewish and was a sci-fi nerd in my teens, so who knows?
