What has DMT taught you about yourself?
- Thread starter Aftermath
- Start date
DMT has taught me MANY things:
I have fear, fear of being high, fear of being judged
I am too judgmental.
That I worry too much and need to be more care free and less careful ( with certain things)
It has shown me things that I already knew as well, but now better understand cause I got to SEE them
That I am capable of anything I put my mind to, you just have to adjust your thinking accordingly.

Loads, psychedelics in general have redefined who I am completely.
It taught me I am capable of more than I thought I could possibly imagine. After a solid breakthrough I am left utterly speechless or fumbling for words to somehow box the experience into this primitive language. Doing this too soon for me results in a loss of the integrity of my memory of the experience. Replaying it in my memory works well for me, but I'm naturally a reflective thinker. Regardless of how I recall or explain the experience I can even come close to doing it justice in its fullness. That we are capable of this experience and, as I believe was mentioned in The Spirit Molecule, are apparently wired for this experience is what blows my mind each and every time.
It redefined many of my world views which I guess is a part of who I am. I experienced myself solely and purely as awareness/consciousness, which is also who I am and somewhat contradicts my last statement as I had no world views in this state. I've learned that my 'self' is composed of a number of 'selves' with particular personalities. Don't know how strongly that holds, but I entertain it.
I am capable of smoking a bowl of DMT/changa and experiencing something that pushes the boundaries of what I think I know. And I can reliably reproduce this result.
Theres a huge list of small changes and realizations that DMT has brought about for me and listing them would take far too long. I'm always surprised by how easily DMT can reveal some things. Although there are certainly enough cryptic experiences to make me do some footwork.

DMT obliterated my old world view. It swiped it clean. I was in a dark mental place, I was never the same since and I was able to kick my anti-depressants and things to fill that void in me I thought was there. I have since realized THAT I AM THE VOID that is be filled with experiences and creating. How wonderful!
It's ok..

That when confronted with love there is nothing to fear and that there is love at the very center of every intention no matter how difficult that is to see. That we're all the conscious manifestation of "god" and that at the core of our being we all have the knowledge of good and it's only diluted by our ego. Our ego's and discontinuity of all sorts are an illusion.
I guess where this mess of a ramble is leading is that at the very core of our existence we are "one." All made up of the same very fundamental component which constitute the reality of everything we know. So no matter how much we wish to separate ourselves we are still the same as eachother and every material object. All different branches spiraling out from one truth or "god." And because of that everything must be perfect no matter how badly diluted our egos perception of our world is. And if everything is perfect there is nothing to fear but fear itself.

Reminds me of a puzzle door end of humanity. The hilarious part was that at that point both me and the 6th level me knew about the "loop" (reality) but I still didn't dare ask the same question with eyes closed. Since my dominant thought was " keep your eyes open" meaning pay attention...
I can best answer this question with:
An interpretive dance.
Followed by getting everyone naked, covering 'em in paint and then Chuck Norris side-kicking 'em into a canvas. This is done with cartoon rules, no-one gets hurt.
And in conclusion, I'll need to gibber some glossolalia for a minute.
Taught me plenty! Some of it not-too rational, or not fully processed yet. Also, some personal stuff about letting go of old pains, accepting the world as it is while still working to make it better. Not taking myself too seriously....of course another time kali manifested and harshly commanded me to "start taking yourself serious!". So yeah, balance is maybe another lesson.
And no-one else said this but....how 'bout a "hooooo-ray, a new way to say oooooooohhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyyyyy"

It taught me how arrogant I was about how much I "know" about anything, I was incredibly scientific before taking DMT, an agnostic but still incredibly fact based and needed hard evidence to prove things.
DMT showed me how arrogant I was for thinking I knew anything and how much abuse I imposed on myself, it also showed me how brave I actually am and how I need to find confidence in myself.
It's completely redefined who I am.

The most profound thing these substances have taught me is how little I actually know. I don't mean that to sound cheeky or Zen deep I mean it quite literally.
We all go so caught up in our experiences and start to think we have some clue as to what's going on. The truth is we don't know as much as we think we do. In fact its probably not even possible to have significant comprehension of the absolute nature of reality.
DMT has taught me to humbly give opinions on subjects with massive disclaimers of agnosticism on all matters.

Very well put. I think you summed it up perfectly.olympus mon said:
The minor things that can be learned aren't nearly as profound as this humbling realization in my experience.
I might add that I along with it I get a profound sense of being lucky to experience everything that I've been lucky to experience.
I don't know much of anything, but I know I'm lucky breathe, feel, experience, and share.

It has humbled me and changed the definition of "self". And like olympus mon said, it has shown me how little I know and how beautiful life is.
