Hello Nexus,

I have been a fan of the site for a while now, I wouldn't know what I know now if it hadn't been for this site and you guys, so I thank you for that.
About me, I have been smoking the spice for 8 months or so now, finally perfected 'my Tek', a lot of thanks to Cyb and the other guys who have put so much helpful information out there.
I have managed to acquire the perfect glassware and tek equipment from online and now my tek's are a lot cleaner and easier than previously.
I have not broken through yet, I was caught off guard and shown the power of the spice early on and that has still left me feeling apprehensive. Slowly getting more confident while under the influence so I guess the break though will happen when its suppose too.
I have changed my smoking method to a cheap glass pipe found online and its working wonders, so much easier than all the other "tools" i have used, it also helps that I am getting regular crystals and not the goo :-).

Things I have learnt as I have gone on is journey -

Don't smoke spice when you have a lot going on around you, a clear mind leads to a peaceful happy trip.
Don't worry about whats happening during the trip, enjoy it as it happens, focusing too much on what happened and is happening will just add confusion to the trip and make it uncomfortable.
IF panic starts to creep in, focus on your breathing...this is something that has helped me a lot.

What do I think DMT is?
My first ever thought while under the influence was that I am seeing my mind, that DMT is a mirror to the mind or inner being. The reason I had this thought was that I seen a face made from cogs and wheels, as I smiled (eyes closed at this point) the face smiled back at me. Rather than thinking that this random face is smiling back at me because I smiled I felt it was more of a reflection of my own feelings.
There have also been other instances where my trips have been heavy influenced by my feelings around that time.
My last few trips have been about love, there was women, in fact my ideal women was there and they were all blowing kisses and so on. This was due to the fact that my girlfriend is now living with me so again I was seeing my inner self.
Anyway thats my theory at the moment but I am still open to other ideas.


To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.

Hello!

I just want to comment on your theory about seeing your mind. I feel that the purpose of the journey is to find yourself in this whole of existence. So you must confront your own mind and ego. I had a heroic breakthru and saw my mind and soul at their basic point in space and time. I saw the good in me and also the bad that I was never aware of. I came face to face with my ego and inner demons and was able to come out of the portal with the tools to change myself.

Safe travels, May light be with you and within you

Hi there, Reflection,

What do you mean by a breakthrough? Sounds like you are having interesting enough experiences to keep you going for 8 months...

I like to meditate a little before journeying, and I find darkness to reduce distraction.

By break through i think he means when you get to the point where you feel you are in a new dimension, To be fully submerged in the experience. Rather than feeling its effects on youre perception of what most people refer to as reality.

I get it.

Just curious to hear Reflection communicate on the topic.

Hello, and thanks for your replies.

Waitwhatwhere, Growingpassion hit the nail on the head.

But to answer your question the visuals I experience start off as everything outlined with colour, very basic simple holographic colours in the air, with a heavy body load which is quiet uncomfortable but bearable. 1 step further would be the electric hum noise followed by strong visuals of people and text been shown to me (eyes closed). Everything is rotating on a axis and morphing out of itself into other people/shapes/text. The colours are vibrant but soft at the same time, lots of patterns and shapes going into the distance. The noises I hear are the bleep bloop noises but also the noise if you were to stick your tongue out ... bluaaaaaa type noise. I still feel as if I am in the room and with my body although I am not focusing on it but I know if I move it will feel my body.

I think my problem is I have got too comfortable smoking low doses and am not pushing myself or preparing myself to take the plunge. I have had two experiences where I left my body and knew that it was leading to a breakthrough I just had a very strong feeling that thats what was happening but I stopped it and fought it as much as a could, why....not sure I think it was the fear of completely becoming detached from myself. The first time I ended up freaking out and totally confused, the 2nd time was similar but I managed to calm myself down but I never went beyond I guess I need just that little more.

I mean when I had my 2nd experience I new that I had gone further as i felt completely different a lot more relaxed, I remember rolling over and everything was in super fast motion and every motion had a swoosh noise not sure if anyone had experienced that. My eyes were SUPER heavy and closed straight away and I was in a orange room I felt detached from my body as if I was just energy or a presence.

Anyway I am looking forward to breaking through... time to man up
