This is excellent. DMT is the active ingredient in all the useful herbal solutions used and using it in the pure form eliminates the nasty byproducts of those same herbal solutions. vomiting is really unnecessary anyway.
I idea of an alien experience surprises me and i leap immediately to an important conjecture. It is that all alien abduction experiences are driven by the effects of the natural DMT inside ourselves. The mere fact that a controlled event generates an alien entity powers this argument.
This eliminates the very troublesome need to also add in space vehicles and their like in order to set up the contact which is also timely. However it also leads to another more powerful conjecture. It is that this chemistry opens up direct communion with alien entities who wish to communicate and act upon us.
Thus aliens are also interacting directly in a mind to mind manner and are also able to somehow do physical interventions as well. No wonder physical evidence is scant.
Brief Overview of DMT

What Is DMT?
http://www.wakingtimes.com/2014/07/25/brief-overview-dmt/
NN-Dimethyltryptamine, or DMT for short, is a short acting
psychedelic entheogen that allows a person’s consciousness to encounter
some of the most incredible experiences, visions, thoughts,
and dimensions imaginable.
DMT is without doubt one of the most powerful, yet mysterious,
psychedelics in existence, but to classify it as merely a drug would be
to do it a great injustice. DMT is more of a trans-dimensional key into
experiences so profound and awe-inspiring that it raises many questions
regarding the nature of reality and our place within it.
DMT is naturally occurring in every human being and is also prevalent
throughout the plant and animal kingdoms. It has been found in many
mammals, marine animals, trees, grasses, and flowers.
DMT is closely related to serotonin, the naturally occurring
neurotransmitter that psychedelics affect so widely. The pharmacology of
DMT is similar to that of other well-known psychedelics. It affects
receptor sites for serotonin in much the same way that LSD, psilocybin,
and mescaline do. These serotonin receptors are widespread throughout
the human body and can be found in blood vessels, muscle, glands, skin,
and even in the gut.
What Are The Effects?
Depending on the dosage, the effects of DMT can range over a
multitude of sensations; from bizarre, beautiful, and even ‘impossible’
visions, to literally jaw-dropping awe, as one is seemingly propelled
into other dimensions of existence that human language and logic cannot
even begin to describe or comprehend.
The following is an excerpt from Psychedelic Monographs and Essays, which discusses the different levels of a DMT experience:
Level I: Pre-Hallucinatory experience
This stage is characterized by an interior flowing of
energy/consciousness. It may be extremely intense. It may have a
positive feeling content.
Level II: Vivid, brilliantly colored, geometric visual hallucinations
Here one is observing a patterned field, basically two dimensional,
although it may have a pulsating quality. One may remember having seen
this before.
Transitional Phase (Level IIB?): tunnel or breakthrough experience
One may see or fly through a tunnel (a passage to the next level). A
veil may part, a membrane may be rent. There is a breakthrough to
another world (or perhaps even a series of breakthroughs).
Alternatively, it may also happen that the transition from Level II
to Level III is abrupt, almost instantaneous, with no experience of
transition.
Level III: Three- or higher-dimensional space, possible contact with entities
This stage is characterized by the experience of being in an
“objective” space, that is, a space of at least three dimensions in
which objects or entities may be encountered.
Sometimes the entities appear to be intelligent and communicative
beings. This stage may be extremely energetic with an experience of
everything happening incomprehensibly fast. Alternatively it may be
relatively coherent.
Travel is possible at Level III. One may, for example, assume [other
forms and/or consciousnesses and experience the physical or emotional
content of these forms/consciousnesses.] The limits of this stage, if
any, are unknown. There may be transitions to further stages.

Is DMT Dangerous?
The feeling of doing DMT is as though one had been struck by noetic lightning. The ordinary world is almost instantaneously replaced, not only with a hallucination, but a hallucination whose alien character is its utter alienness. Nothing in this world can prepare one for the impressions that fill your mind when you enter the DMT sensorium.
The extraordinary brevity of the experience argues that it is incredibly harmless. It virtually disappears from the organism in about ten minutes. The paradox is that DMT is the most powerful yet most harmless of all these things. This is probably because, for reasons which are mysterious to us, DMT occurs in normal brain metabolism [in Serotonin].
– Terence McKenna
Even though DMT is one of the most intense psychedelics in existence,
it is one of the safest, physically. Because the human body already
contains DMT in trace amounts, the brain knows exactly how to utilize
and metabolize this compound and it leaves the system in a matter of
minutes. In fact, the brain actively transports DMT across the
blood-brain barrier, an incredibly rare phenomenon that evidences the
paradoxical nature of this endogenous compound that induces such
otherworldly experiences. In fact one could say that since DMT is
endogenous to the human nervous system it is one of the safest
psychedelics available, far safer than common alcohol and cigarettes.
Mentally, DMT is extremely intense. One of the few dangers that one
may encounter is a lack of preparedness for the intensity of the
experience and may have trouble integrating it into their waking life.
It may be helpful to have some grounding in esoteric or psychedelic
states of mind before embarking on any DMT voyages. Set and setting also
play a big part in facilitating the most positive, insightful, and
enjoyable experience possible.
How Can One Acquire DMT?
There are a number of ways to acquire this entheogen. The first and
most difficult way is to have some substantial chemistry knowledge and
experience and actually synthesize pure DMT in a laboratory. This is a
rather tricky and time consuming process and requires access to some
rather obscure and hard to acquire chemicals.
The most common and easiest method to acquire DMT is to extract it
from the various plant species that contain the compound. The various
plants and extraction techniques won’t be expounded upon here, but come
on…you’re reading this on the Nexian, right? Maybe check out the DMT-Nexus forums and wiki.
What Are The Implications Of DMT?
The DMT experience remains one of the most baffling and amazing
enigmas of the human experience. The realms one breaks into are
frequently described as “amazing,” “incredible,” and even “impossible.”
Many, if not most, who have taken DMT and experienced the phenomenon
known as a “breakthrough” feel that their experience was not mere
“hallucination,” ”hypnagogia,” or even material from their subconscious
mind.
Some common ideas of what might be occurring are expounded upon below
from an excerpt of Psychedelic Monographs and Essays. It should be
noted that the following by no means encompasses all, or even the
majority of DMT experiences:
“Although the amazing geometrical hallucinations experienced under the influence of DMT are sufficient in themselves to command attention among students of psychedelics, the really interesting part of the experience is the apparent contact with alien beings.
Since some may feel reluctant to admit the possible existence of alien beings [let alone their contacting human beings under the influence of DMT], we should consider all hypothesis that might explain the observations, or at least, those that are consistent with them.”[ this might be a good starting point for understanding the abduction expereince as well - arclein ]
Several questions can be distinguished. First, there is the question
of the independent reality of the entities. Subjects report experiences
of contact with communicative beings whose independent existence at the
time seems self-evident. It is worth noting that at this point in time,
we have no ability to verify claims about the independent reality of
consensus reality, and should therefore not be too hasty to make such
demands about the DMT experience.
These
experiences are not described as dream-like. If these entities have an
existence independent of the DMT-influenced subject, then a realm of
existence has been discovered which is quite other to consensus reality,
which many assume is the only “real” plane of existence. The discovery
of a “separate reality” would directly challenge the foundations of the
current Materialist paradigm.
Additional questions arise, regardless of whether the entities are
independently-existing or not, as to what they are seen as and seen to
be doing? What is happening, for example, when some subjects report
seeing thousands of these entities simultaneously? Even more interesting
is the phenomenon of communication, or attempted communication, which
many people report. Some people also report seeing the entities
communicating with each other, in some kind of mutual exchange — but of
what?
This matter can also be approached from the point of view of
neuropharmacology. What exactly is going on when DMT molecules are drawn
across the blood brain barrier and into the brain, causing it to
function in what appears subjectively to be a radically different
manner? Why does the brain seek out this molecule with an affinity
normally reserved for glucose and other compounds understood to be vital
to the functionality of the brain?
A Few Possible Interpretations of the DMT Experience
Listed below are eight possible interpretations of the DMT experience
which imply answers (true or false) to some or all of the questions
raised above. Some of these, like the experience itself, are bizarre,
but at this stage, any idea should be considered since in this matter
the truth (to paraphrase J.B.S. Haldane) probably is not only stranger than we suppose, but stranger than we can suppose.
1) There are no entities at all; it’s merely
subjective hallucination. The DMT state may be interesting, even
extremely interesting, but really, there are no independently-existing
entities to be found. Such a possibility might lead us to conclude that
DMT is, at its minimum, neurochemical art; some of the most beautiful,
interactive, awe-inspiring art available to the human mind.
2) DMT provides access to a parallel or higher
dimension, a truly alternate reality which is, in fact, inhabited by
independently-existing intelligent entities forming (in the words of
Terence McKenna) “an ecology of souls.”
3) DMT allows awareness of processes at a cellular
or even atomic level. DMT smokers are tapping into the network of cells
in the brain or even into communication among molecules themselves. It
might even be an awareness of quantum mechanical processes at the atomic
or subatomic level.
4) DMT is, perhaps, a neurotransmitter in reptilian
brains and in the older, reptilian parts of mammalian brains. Flooding
the human brain with DMT causes the older reptilian parts of the brain
to dominate consciousness, resulting in a state of awareness which
appears totally alien (and sometimes very frightening) to the everyday
monkey mind.
5) A
non-human intelligent species created humans by genetic modification of
existing primate stock and then retreated, leaving behind
biochemical methods for contacting them. The psychedelic tryptamines are
chemical keys that activate certain programs in the human brain that
were placed there intentionally by this alien species.
6) The realm to which DMT provides access is the
world of the dead. The entities experienced are souls or personalities
of the departed, which retain some kind of life and ability to
communicate. The realm of dead souls, commonly accepted by cultures and
societies that do not ascribe to a materialist worldview, is now
accessible using DMT.
7) The entities experienced are beings from another
time that have succeeded in mastering the art of time travel, not in a
way which allows materialization, but in a way which allows them to
communicate with conscious beings such as ourselves.
8) The entities are probes from an extraterrestrial or an extra dimensional species,
sent out to make contact with organisms such as ourselves who are able
to manipulate their nervous systems in a way which allows communication
to take place.
These interpretations in no way reflect the entire myriad of
possibilities surrounding the DMT experience, but are intended to serve
as a jumping off point for those interested in such thought experiments.
These hypotheses can be expanded and are, of course, open to
objections. It may be that one day we have sufficient evidence to pin
down a certain hypothesis as a reasonable assumption as to “what’s
really going on,” but today is not that day. It’s quite possible that
such a day will never come.
The important thing to remember is that, whether or not these
experiences are “real,” or entities “exist,” these experiences are
available to the human consciousness. The real question is not the
objective validity of these experiences, but the subjective effects of
these experiences. What can we learn from these experiences? What can we
do with these experiences? How can we use these experiences to catalyze
change in ourselves and the world around us?
Happy Journeying and Stay Safe.
