À propos de cet audio

A clinical psychiatrist explores the effects of DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known.

• A behind-the-scenes look at the cutting edge of psychedelic research.

• Provides a unique scientific explanation for the phenomenon of alien abduction experiences.

From 1990 to 1995 Dr. Rick Strassman conducted U.S. Government-approved and funded clinical research at the University of New Mexico in which he injected sixty volunteers with DMT, one of the most powerful psychedelics known. His detailed account of those sessions is an extraordinarily riveting inquiry into the nature of the human mind and the therapeutic potential of psychedelics. DMT, a plant-derived chemical found in the psychedelic Amazon brew, ayahuasca, is also manufactured by the human brain. In Strassman's volunteers, it consistently produced near-death and mystical experiences. Many reported convincing encounters with intelligent nonhuman presences, aliens, angels, and spirits. Nearly all felt that the sessions were among the most profound experiences of their lives.

Strassman's research connects DMT with the pineal gland, considered by Hindus to be the site of the seventh chakra and by Rene Descartes to be the seat of the soul. DMT: The Spirit Molecule makes the bold case that DMT, naturally released by the pineal gland, facilitates the soul's movement in and out of the body and is an integral part of the birth and death experiences, as well as the highest states of meditation and even sexual transcendence. Strassman also believes that "alien abduction experiences" are brought on by accidental releases of DMT. If used wisely, DMT could trigger a period of remarkable progress in the scientific exploration of the most mystical regions of the human mind and soul.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Fascinating and provocative. A remarkable exploration of the boundaries of science and consciousness itself."
"Rick Strassman's pioneering research work with DMT, a natural psychedelic drug used by Amazonian Indians, raises fascinating questions about the neurochemical basis of experience and the feasibility of conducting human research with mind-altering drugs in a university medical center. Truly adventurous reading!"
"This book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in the mind, philosophy, the nature of reality, and spirituality."
"DMT: The Spirit Molecule points the way beyond the present impasse of the reigning 'drug abuse' paradigm."
"The most extensive scientific study of the mental and perceptual effects of a psychedelic drug since the 1960s."
"Strassman's important research contributes to a growing awareness that we inhabit a multi-dimensional universe."
"Strassman raises vital questions about the origin of spiritual experiences and the nature of consciousness."
"DMT: The Spirit Molecule is a fascinating journey into the research of psychedelics. . . . The questions and possible explanations about the endogenous presence of DMT that he raises not only enlarge the discussion about psychedelics but also expand our understanding of the nature of consciousness."
"This book will be of profound interest to . . . anyone with a deep interest in the study of consciousness, visionary states and/or psycho-pharmacology."
"Strassman's psychonauts regularly found themselves hurtled into alien laboratories, high-tech nurseries, and Day-Glo hieroglyphic hypercubes."
"DMT: the Spirit Molecule is an enriching journey into one scientist's courageous attempt to solve a bit more of the brain/mind/spirit mystery at the center of human existence."
"What you will find is a thoughtful, well-written report about another of life's mysteries."
"Strassman's research was an important step, one that will potentially illuminate the path for future researchers and volunteers alike, and this book is a great contribution to the ongoing dialogue surrounding psychedelics."
"This is probably the most thorough book on the psychedelic, DMT--its history, chemistry, uses (legal and illegal), and its effects. This is a very compelling, thoughtful book, written by a scrupulous scientist with the soul of a meditator."
"The account of the project is an excellent inside view of human drug studies, especially those with psychedelics."
"This book is a highly readable, intriguing, provocative description of Rick Strassman's theories and research concerning the effects of DMT."
"Rick Strassman's experimentation with the psychoactive substance DMT is taking up where Leary's 1950/60's LSD experiments stopped."
"[Strassman's] account, written more for the layman than the specialist, is ground-breaking, and raises the interesting question as to what is truly a psychedelic experience."

I've been fascinated by psychedelics for a while and this book was amazing with recounts of the trips by patients very good insight to the dmt realm

psychedelics are great

The stories are very interesting and draw you into more questions than answers. Book
Is a bit long winded.

Good read

As others have said, the user experiences are the highlight. But good chunks of the history of making this research happen are interesting too. Yea some of his theories are pretty out there, but worth exploring (dark matter? That one was too far out for me, but who knows).

The lowlights for me were the narrator’s fairly chronic mía-pronunciations of many, many words. It got absurd at many points. I like his easygoing and gentle voice, but the mispronounced words are too many to disregard. Does no one review this before release?

Great stories, nice voice, pronunciation problems

some of his theories are out there. the clinical research documentation is very thorough. some questions he asks are fascinating.

dont expect to be wooed by this book, only better informed. be skeptical of things said that even strassman identifies as philosophic investigation and not real science but be open minded as well.

the user experiences are the best part of the book by far.

A Thorough account of clinical research into DMT

I really enjoyed hearing about the clinical trials. I could have done without the mysticism bits however.

Gets pretty space cadet-ey by the end
