REPORT
One fine autumn evening nearly 8 years ago, I decided that I was finally going to experiment with this pure DMT substance that had recently come into my life. I had experienced Ayahuasca and I loved it so, however the intensity of the Ayahuasca experiences made me leery of pure DMT, to put it blatantly, I was terribly afraid of the possibilities that DMT represented. I had been nursing my stash for almost two months by this time.

I thought ingesting some mushrooms might help to spurn on my adventurous side. So I ate
3 grams of over dried and seemingly weak P. Sclerotia stones along with two grams of high intensity Brazilian Cubensis caps. When the mushrooms took effect I played guitar for some time to take my mind off the nausea and then when I thought I had reached my peak. I attempted to meditate for a bit.

After I felt like I had reached a point of relative calm I pulled out a shiny new short glass oil burner DMT pipe that some friends had trained me how to use properly. I grabbed an ashtray and some matches, then I proceeded to make myself as comfortable as possible on a rather luxurious looking black lounge chair that I had.

I was sitting up in the chair, holding the pipe in my hand. I had prepared the pipe earlier by inserting the DMT into the oil burner using a long plastic straw. I warmed up the base of the oil burner slowly with a lighter and effectively liquefied the yellowish DMT powder that was inside the small clear bulb of the base pipe, I then sat the light down and struck a paper match. I held the burning match beneath the smoking apparatus and kept the pipe tilted downward so as not to get liquid DMT into my mouth.

As I began pulling air rapidly through the pipe, pillars of rolling thick white vapor shot out of the bubble of the pipe and into my lungs. The taste was not really bad, in fact it seemed to be almost non existent as I inhaled the heavy white vapor. Upon my first exhalation there was a slight taste, but I found that taste to be somewhat enjoyable. The taste may have been slight but I knew the effects would not be at all slight, I could feel the horizon of an imminent event arriving. It was a feeling like just floating in the water with my surf board and waiting for that huge wave that you know is coming for me. I can't see it yet but I know it's coming for me. I dove in and took another hit , I felt like I only had a certain amount of time, like the clock was about to expire. The second hit was bigger than the first, right away I began to feel unmistakable changes in my perception, I felt like I was beginning to float away. I took a third hit and it finished every last bit of whatever DMT was left in the bulb, the last puff had more of an unpleasant burnt plastic flavor because I had held the flame a bit too close at the end, but that is because it was difficult for me to focus as I was floating away rapidly.

After breathing out the third hit I laid backwards into the overstuffed black leather chair, I felt helpless at first and then realized it would be pointless to resist, like swimming upstream through a fearsome waterfall.

I made the choice to not fight, I allowed myself to resign completely. All at once the impending psychedelic tsunami wave came crashing gracefully right straight down on top of my head. I was caught up in a rushing riptide that seemed to proceed from everywhere and nowhere, my awareness became entangled in this torrential force and that force lifted my very consciousness up and carried it away from my body with an unfathomable speed. I truly felt like a leaf caught up in a tidal wave.

It was at this point that I became aware that my being was being transported. It was apparent that there was this other presence that was responsible for my rapid transportation. I realized that I was being taken for a ride by some type of seemingly gigantic blue-light creature that was radiating a feeling of ultimate benevolence, something like an electric whale. It glowed with a soothing and friendly light, it seemed like I was riding on this beings back.

Suddenly the ride stopped. The sensation of continuous motion or travel ceased and I found myself standing in what essentially seemed to be like another/ world or dimension. I now had the distinct feeling that I was being held up from behind by some force. I felt similar to a drunk person who could not walk on his own and so has to be carried by his friends, except I actually did not feel drunk at all, I felt a sobriety and alertness that far seemed superior to the by contrast cloudy day to day perception I was accustomed to.

My viewpoint of this place panned continuously back and forth in a 180 degree view. It was like my head was a high definition movie camera and was just moving very slowly from left to right As if in order to provide me with an absolutely flawless view of this unimaginable world, it was as if though some unknown force was directing the entire experience from behind the scenes and wanted to make sure I absorbed every single detail possible. I was a bit frightened by the fully immersive situation I was in but I knew I had committed to something major by smoking DMT and I was determined to see it through.

I allowed myself to helplessly witness as the details of this outlandish reality unfolded dramatically before me. I realized that I had next to no literal frame of reference for what I was seeing, it was apparently indescribable to an extreme degree. I thought about how I would ever describe something like this unfathomable place to someone.

There were certain things about this place however, that I noticed could be compared in one way or another to certain Earthly phenomena and concepts, but it was clear that any comparison I could make about this place using the English language would only be a shallow comparison at best. While there were many things about this world that were technologically advanced looking, "Spirit-like", "science fiction like", and "alien/extra terrestrial like", really these comparisons are not at all accurate, but indeed they are the most fitting words I could find to describe what I was seeing.

I was standing/being propped up at the center of this extremely expansive vast enclosure, everything around me had a very cosmic feeling like it was all existing somewhere smack dab in the middle of infinity, deep in stellar space, but it felt like it was also indoors somehow.

The far apart, very high reaching walls of this place were not solid walls but were made up of a tightly placed and intricately elaborate system of super-shiny metallic pipes that seemed to turn, twist, intertwine and interconnect in just about every conceivable way like the configuration of the connections on a circuit board. I had the realization that I was standing inside of some type of colossal machine that felt like it was free floating in outer space.


It was obvious however that the purpose of these shiny pipes was something far beyond my human understanding. Each pipe had a very ornate line of unknown hieroglyphic characters that seemed to breathe and radiate with their own living light. The pulsing shine of the space age looking letters synchronized perfectly with the shimmer and shine of the silver tubes.
I did not recognize the specific language that was on the tubes but it was indeed similar to many ancient Earth languages that I had seen. The conglomeration of glimmering silver tubes looked like they were part of some larger mega, super sophisticated machinery apparatus of some kind.


It rapidly became obvious that this mechanized astro-dome I was standing in was a very, very busy place. All along each of the thousands of twisting and turning silver tubes there were these small beetle type beings. There were hundreds upon hundreds of them, they all looked identical clones of one another with the exception of very slight variances in coloration. All of their eyes were like perfectly reflective amber mirrors, almost like they were all wearing bionic sunglasses.

They were hard at work doing something that somehow seemed like it must have been incredibly important although I had no Idea what that thing was. The electric blue and neon green and black super shiny looking hive of space pipe beetles were calmly yet frantically moving around and maneuvering every which way.

The futuristic looking walls around me were so crowded with these cosmic beetles moving over and through the metallic pipe system in every direction. It was somehow clear to me that the beetles seemed to be performing some of ongoing cooperative maintenance procedure on the machinery.

I thought that they would have a hard time getting around yet they seemed to operate with a flawlessly absurd synchronicity in their movements. I was witnessing a type of bio-mechanical symbiosis The bio-android beetles were some type of high tech space pipe traversing specialists, It was clear to me but I could also sense that the hive of clone beetles seemed to be performing some type of continual maintenance procedure on the machinery.

I started to think about how I had never been involved in a vision that was so completely immersive like this before in my life. I started to wonder if I had actually died
"Maybe the DMT was made wrong." I thought,.....I began to panic.
The beetles instantly sensed the fear I was experiencing, and immediately every single one of them halted whatever involved space tube business they were busy conducting at the same exact time. I felt the strange peering sunglass looking eyes of a thousand shiny amber eyed space beetles all turn and look at me at once. I was reminded of the classic western movie scene were a stranger walks into the local saloon and the piano player stops abruptly.

Despite the fact that these beings had no facial expressions per say they all gave me this "look" that seemed to express a statement like:
"Hey, don't do that here, why are you disturbing us with this, can't you see we have work to do?"
They did not seem angry however, they seemed to be making fun of me in a mocking sort of way...their expressionless mirrored eyed faces seemed to be sort of grinning at me as if though they were somehow incredibly amused by the fact that I was horrified by them.

I was aware of the fact that my physical heartbeat back in my body had become double speed, sort of like how one might be partially aware of his physicality in spite of being in a heavy dream state. I wanted to run away but knew that was no option. I considered forcing my eyes open in order to end the all consuming vision and that was when a very soft and gentle voice spoke directly into my right ear. "don't be afraid, they will not hurt you, just relax and watch.", the voice was male sounding.
I understood right then that the voice speaking in my ear and the force that was propping me up and "showing me around" were one and the same.

The reassuring voice served to reduce my terror to a level that was now semi manageable. I decided to try and remain as calm as possible and witness everything around me as best that I could. I knew that I had been brought here for a reason, I recognized this as a gift of power from the universe and I did not want to mess it up. I did not want my needless fear to prevent me from properly absorbing the information that my strange environment had to offer my perception. I committed and re-surrendered my self to experience and resolved to pay close attention to my surroundings so I would be able to recount my experience.


The slow motion 180 degree, back and forth pan-o-rama view of the ultra futuristic space hangar around me went on unceasingly. Once I had calmed down, the hive of metallic bio-robotic maintenance worker beetles rapidly went back to their individualized tasks as quickly as they had stopped.

I was still, being propped up, standing in the center of the same large flat area, it felt like I was at the center of some type of arena, even though this arena was surrounded by the ultra high wall of pipe works, the floor of the arena was made of some kind of earthy-organic substance, I felt as though I was standing barefoot in it, it felt like cool, soft prairie clay or moist morning beach sand. I became aware that I was not the only one in the arena there were three other very large, (roughly twice human sized) beings standing and sitting on the opposite side of the arena area from where I was. They seemed to be calmly conversing to each other, one was drastically different than the other two by way of appearance.

All 3 beings were very large, roughly three times the size of humans. Two of the beings were quite similar to one another. They were both somewhat humanoid looking in some ways, They were mostly blob like in nature, as if they were filled with a living blend of concord grape jelly and ectoplasm. They were both short fat and squat and they seemed to wriggle and jiggle around a lot they squished about in a strangely graceful way in order to move so they had no legs that I could see. Their large bulbous heads were riddled with indecipherable facial features of some kind.
They were blob like in nature, they seemed to be covered in a sort of shiny oozing substance but actually did not really look slimy at all, it was more a highly organized rather than chaotic blob form. The form and shape of these two creatures very much reminded me of man of war jellyfish. They were wearing these "suits" made of a robo-bionic armored type substance, there seemed to be a lot of technology going on with the way their suits functioned that I could not decipher. These suits seemed to serve as some kind of protective device but it also gave the two purple blobs a very neat uniformed sort of appearance.

At first I thought that they were some kind of guards or sentries judging by their bionic uniforms as well as the enormous size of them. After watching for a moment a could tell that they were actually just relaxing and going about there own business, by contrast to the beetles who were seemed hard at work maintaining this strange facility, these larger beings seemed to have a much more leisurely demeanor. .
They were both engaged in some type of discussion with the third beings. They seemed aware of my presence but were just sort of ignoring me at first. It then occurred to me that this place I was in was some kind of meeting area for different types of non-organic life. It reminded me very much of the intergalactic space bar in Star Wars, except these creatures were far more proper about there behavior. More like C3-P0 rather than Jabba the Hut when it came to manners.
Although I could not understand it I observed that these three beings clearly exemplified some type dignified customary behavior, it's like they were extremely cordial with one another.

The third being that the two well mannered purple jelly creatures were conversing with was not at all like the blobs. This being took the form of a perfectly straight vertical black very metallic line, The dark line had a consciousness and reminded me of a stick figure.

I watched in absolute aw as these three intelligent life forms carried on some kind of in depth discussion, they were communicating using telepathy and I could "hear" that they were talking a lot but I could not decipher what they were saying, it was like they were communicating on a different wavelength that was beyond my reception capabilities and I could only translate it as some kind of high speed gibberish.

One of the fat purple jelly fish beings suddenly looked over at me inquisitively and made eye contact with me, even though there he had no eyes to make contact with, it was as if though his entire see-through bubbly jelly head functioned as an eye. It became obvious at that point that they had been discussing my presence in this place, they seemed extremely curios about me, I got vague the impression that the third being was most curious of all and was asking the other two purple blobs if they knew what I was.

It then seemed as if the curiosity regarding my presence seemed to get the best of the narrow being and began to move towards me. As it turned slowly away from the two blobs it changed positions and as it did it revealed that it was not just a narrow black, metallic line but it was also a large circle. It dawned on me that I had been looking at the side profile of a two dimensional circle, it just looked like a line from the side. This third being was actually a perfectly round pitch black interstellar hole of some kind, the hole that had tremendous depth to it, I considered the notion that perhaps this being functioned as some kind of living hole in the fabric of time/space.

As the two dimensional black hole being began to move slowly towards me it stretched itself out to demonstrate that it was in three dimensional. It looked like it was now perhaps ten feet long and eight foot wide at the furthest point of the open circle, it was very ultra metallic and glimmering and very much reminded me of some kind of mega sized living space slinky. The perfection of the beings physical geometry reminded me of art class when I learned to sketch cylinders.

As the black hole cylinder being floated closer to me I became aware of a highly charged electrical feeling that the tube radiated, like a robotic electric eel of some kind. I could "feel" that the awareness of this sentient being emanated from the emptiness that resided inside it's own portal like tube. In spite of the fact that this thing looked like it could have easily swallowed me down and digested me alive in it's endless void within two seconds. It was not threatening at all to me but seemed kind and gentle. It seemed more timid than I was in fact, it approached me with an air of caution like a hungry wild animal might skittishly approach a human that is attempting to feed it.

The outer space metallic slinky entity floated up to within a few feet of me and paused as if though it wanted to thoroughly scrutinize my very being. I could feel the awareness of the empty hole peering straight through me, probing my consciousness. After some time of this examination I heard the tube speak. Like a slow motion voice effect, in a very tinny, and mechanical voice that at the same time seemed to vibrate with life, it addressed the other two blob beings by flatly announcing:
"It's a mortal."

In a very casual un-interested fashion the slinky being turned back around, floated away and calmly rejoined his purple friends. The three then re started conversing again about some new own topic. I got the distinct impression that humans were somehow an incredible bore to these three beings.

I was pondering how humans are more than likely the most boring creatures in the universe, when out of nowhere came the most unbelievable looking creature that I had ever laid eyes on. From out of the tubular slinky's intergalactic portal emerged this colossal fluorescent rainbow colored plumed serpent. It's eyes looked like strange jewels and its face was very fearsome yet quite friendly at the same time, I knew it meant me no harm by it's face and eyes, it's eyes had a very playful shine.

With great speed this divine looking being shot straight upwards and presented me with a breathtaking acrobatic display of it's fantastic aerial prowess. The way that the creature flew straight up and down and then in loops reminded me of a Chinese dragon during Chinese new year. The face of the creature were also in ways similar to the traditional image of a Chinese dragon at the same time it definitely had features that were identical to Mayan statues of snakes and dragon as well

It was clear to me that the plumed serpent was pleased to see me and that was the purpose of it's serpentine dance. I knew then that human beings were not considered dull by every being, This charming entity seemed to in fact be overjoyed by the presence of a "mortal" human.

The plumed serpent had a narrow body much like a snake, the feathers or plumes or this being were the most vibrant colored feathers I had ever seen, they reminded me of the feathers of many different exotic rainforest species such as Parrots, Tucans and Birds of paradise.

The scales of the iconic Mayan looking serpent were made up of the most intricate color sequence that I had ever seen in my entire life, it was similiar to a rainbow but somehow went way beyond that. This rainbow dragon had control over which ones of his scales or feathers would illuminate brightly and with different neon color at any give time it used this control to create sort of a chasing lights effect as he commenced a series of highly impressive acrobatic manuvers in the air directly in front of me. Exhibiting amazing displays of dexterity and flexibility

As a grand finale the giant rainbow colored feathery dragon snake shot straight up into the sky to the very top of the space hangar area. It then did a nose drive straight downwards and proceeded to do a vertical u turn just a few feet in front of me shooting right back up into the air again. It did this in order to give me a perfect view of the vibrantly colored scales on his belly. The incredibly vivid colors of each scale was like it's own florescent strobe. Each colored scale also seemed to correspond to a haunting brief melody, it was like extreme synthenasia where sound and color were one thing.

I became aware of the fact that the plumed serpent was trying to communicate something to me by flashing its melodious rainbow scales in a perfect, very sophisticated synchronized rhythm. As the long belly of the serpent flew upwards past my face I began to understand the message. The message was hope.

-The Return Trip
I opened my eyes and I was sitting in my overstuffed chair. There were still very intense visual distortions taking place, everything around me had an extremely phony look to it, like reality had in essence transformed into an impressionistic painting of itself while I was away.
I closed my eyes for a moment and had the sensation of being swung around 180 degrees very quickly. I opened my eyes and found that I was looking at my own self right in the face, into my own eyes in fact.

Even thought there was no mirror in sight, I had somehow morphed into a mirror image of myself, it appeared absolutely clear as waking reality in every way. I was looking at myself looking back at me and every detail of the image I was looking at was exactly correct right down to the patterns of my tye died shirt. I quickly became confused as to which version was me and which version was a reflection. I was aware of being both sides of the mirror at once. This became very disorientating because I completely lost sight of where I was actually sitting in the room and I could no longer tell what direction I was actually facing.

I was pretty shocked by the drastically intense nature of the visuals I was experiencing at this point so I decided it was less physically confusing to have my eyes closed.
This time when I closed my eyes I was not taken anywhere or swept away by anything. The closed eye visuals were phenomenal however and it became very similar to some of the lower dose Ayahuasca trips I had had prior to this experience. It felt like many different formless kaleidoscopic type entities were trying to impart different information to me all at the same time. One voice told me "Yes, hello...we have been expecting you.......... for thousands of years."
After a while the visuals experience dwindled into nothing and I returned to reality once again. A few years later I came across a recording of Terrence McKenna talking about his first DMT trip and I noticed he mentioned that the "elves" had told him something similar about anticipating his arrival to their dimension. Not that I am comparing myself with Terrence McKenna, I am just wondering if this is some sort of standard hyperspace greeting.


So this is my first official DMT trip report ever, hope everyone is appropriately entertained by this piece....thank you for looking it over.

EDIT: also feel free to comment if you actually made it this far through my ramblings.

Great read, thanks

Outstanding!

This sounds like the greatest trip EVER! It made me happy to read it!!!
