"DMT is the real reality."

"DMT is the real reality."

“Did it work?”

 

“Yes, Admired One.”

 

“Good. How long did it take?”

 

“Well, we started with a Bohemian Life Style. Then we got Flappers, then Beatnicks, then the “Tune in, Turn On, and Drop out.” Then we hit a snag because of the LSD fiasco. Luckily, mushrooms and the lure of DMT opening your mind to several levels of Reality beyond three dimension…well, that worked.  So about a century and a half in their time.“

 

“Good. So they all think Reality is a scam?”

 

“Yes, Admired One.”

 

“So they chase this “altered state of psychedelic spirituality” and forget that if they fall, they break. And if they don’t eat, they starve. And if they hurt someone…well that someone is hurt. And if they are on fire, reality is a burn, and something was really hot.”

 

“Yep. They consider all of that meaningless, trivial, and trite. They believe that “Reality is a dream. Just like a dream.”

 

“What?”

 

“Yes, they say when they dream, and they are being chased or looking at stuff, there is no air, there is no distance, there is no body…that everything in a dream takes place in their minds. So, after you take DMT, the same thing applies to their physical presence in this Dimension. “

 

“My God. Are they that stupid that a mind altering substance, that detaches them from physical reality - might, itself, be a dream?”

 

“No. Admired One. They believe that the “trip” they went on, without taking their body along with them, is the actual real meaning of all life. And where they will learn to live without war, pain, or suffering. That they will all become one. One part of a giant collection of empathetic, caring, loving beings…that welcome them to reality.”

 

“Okay. And you are certain that passing that “law” allowing everyone to experiment with DMT, will allow us to take over?”

 

“Oh, yes. For we are the Beings that they see in their “Trips.” 

 

They both laughed.

Clever stuff but also a bit scary. There definitely is quite a bit of this thinking running around in contemporary society.

Aloha Barry,
I first ran into DMT back in the mid 1990's...I have never done a drug of any kind, but from what I read and the folks I talked to: DMT is the Mother of all Psychedelics. And it is turning out to be useful for some Mental Illnesses - mainly depression, and psychic breaks. And almost every celebrity has jumped on the DMT bandwagon...some good changes in their thinking, but other things ...well, they lose touch with this Reality a bit. Clever and scary indeed.

Smiles, Kevin
