Hello all, thanks for reading my introduction.
First off I have to say I have little experience with exogenous psychedelics, and have never tried DMT in any form. When I was younger, I dabbled in mushrooms and LSD with mixed results but that was over 12 years ago. I was never really compelled to explore further (as many of my friends did) and soon travelled a different path towards meditation. There arised in me a definite internal compulsion towards meditation along with seemingly external synchronicities which foster continued practice even to this day. I can't even imagine what my life would be like without my practice and insights gained and am eternal grateful for being shown the way.
Anyhow, I have noticed strong synchronicity in my life again and the familiar internal compulsion which all point towards DMT (almost like the universe is yelling "Hey! Hey! Over here!" with blinking/flashing lights). Just researching the information and reading about others experiences with this enigmatic molecule puts me into a very warm pre-meditative state. Reading numerous experiences on this forum I am in awe of the intelligence, love, and reverence going on here with many members. The feeling I get is of being "home" if that makes any sense, and I haven't even experienced DMT!
I plan to take my first journey in the next couple of weeks and would greatly appreciate any advice for a first timer. I am interested in launching from as close as I can get to a state of samadhi (concentrated meditation) with the goal being to integrate my experiences into my primary meditation practice and thus out into my life. I know I can't TOTALLY prepare myself but I would like to attempt a positive experience.
Thanks for reading and for any advise you have. Be well and be safe!
