Thank you to everyone who's made me feel welcome already! It's reassuring to know that people here maintain that sense of objectivity concerning models of reality.

I'm also glad that my suggestions regarding my own experiences haven't been taken literally and that people understand that it's purely speculation (particularly since I have no experience of DMT and can't make any comparison). This is one of the main reasons I joined up, the comfort of knowing that an outlandish theory can be voiced and discussed without fear of having to repeatedly state that it's just a theory! Ha!

I was particularly interested in what Endlessness had to say about the "realm of the dead/souls", especially having read about how Tibetan monks pointed out the similarities with the first Bardo and hyperspace.

Anyhow, thanks again for your welcome and I look forward to talking more with you all in future!

O.A.C.
