This borders highly theoretical yet hardly objective, nor rational; consider; Experience integration difficulties. Friend seeking help making sense of what just happened to them. Assumption I make is to start from a white sheet incorporating all ethnic / religions / fanciful sensitivities. Start with identifying the psychological makeup considering emotional / & personal "developmental" difficulties. I use a few test questions in order to ascertain their familiarity level with the belief systems, world views, religious beliefs I feel might contain the memes (as well as archetypes and scientific understandings they will grasp that contain the principles we will use in metaphor for relevancy) that I feel will be useful in making relevancy. Consider cultural indoctrination, as well as dialectics. Energy work can be as much helping a person to understand the landscapes of dreams as much as it can be making sense of traumatic events in the past. Sometimes regression within ones self can find proclivities to suppress even the most mundane of beliefs questions the simplest of accepted values we cherish. I ask a series of questions to drill down a person into categories while making it appear as idle chit chat (doing it with love) trying to gauge resistance. When I mean resistance I mean cognitive dissonance not expressed outwardly. Once I understand that, I often will give explanations of how the brain mechanically works. Psychedelic information theory (and half a dozen other buckets of information all go into here) as well as help in transcending whatever is hanging them up spiritually for often the reason why these experiences are so hard to integrate is that they can shred somebody's belief system, strengthen their convictions, or shake their resolve in their personal beliefs, so we should be sensitive to this as well as considerate in how we might be of service for them. I would have to say that in all regards, it's more like keeping a close friend or companion engaged in multiple directions where they can apply themselves, (self monitoring one's self for one's improvement in said field all the way up to 2 months after one experience to see if cognitive abilities and traits have not increased) document how thinking is streamlined, take notes, post at DMT-Nexus!
Let's say somebody tried out of body experience using said x technique in order to assist said friend in preparation towards getting ready to launch in order such that it would be less of a traumatic experience. For example, my post of my experience here:
https://www.dmt-nexus.me...;t=23550&find=unread goes into analytical detail of my experience. Imagine helping to dissect the experience in a more scientific manner (Not that we can dissect someone's brain, but rather through scientific speculation) If these assumptions get out of the way of what work is there to be done, then we could get onto defining the perimeters of where that work goes. Collaboratively I feel a piece of online web2.0 mind mapping software that doubled as a forum would be really cool so the structure of information could grow like a neurological network!
Now the gold in all this is when you can sit down and type up, (or record with permission) and then transcribe (from voice recorder) the contents of "interesting spiritual talks".
This is such a drop in the bucket of what could be done. I have reading resources coming out of my ears. Part of me feels like starting up a tracker for this site & me just seeding 3TB of stuff in order to help folks evolve themselves if they so choose. Information / knowledge is power after all, and DMT does unlock the mind, so it only seems logical. (To myself) Input?
* Did that help to answer your question, or at least vaguely clarify? I know I am still being general. The more general I start, the more specific in different areas I can become.
I= SWIM = Not Me. The I AM I Does Not Exist, and is Referenced to SWIM Who Is Not A Friend I Never Met, Nor Hallucinated While Imagining The Is-ness of Suchness That Is SWIM Who Is Not Me, Myself, Nor I As The Expression Of Non Dual Aspect of Non-Dual Reality Subjectively Denied By Swim, or accompanying Me-Anti-ness'es. =) All Credit Goes To The ANTI-SWIM'ness of SWIM's cousin's room-mate's uncle's deceased cat's in-law's second removed nephew's aunt WHOM authored SWIM's 2000 Year Old Desert Scribblings from a drunk rabbit in the Serengeti desert found in an insane asylum under water, on Easter eggs, crucified by the on fire pagan music listening christian maniac from India running around believing he was Jesus repenting this bush he called the Acacia tree; So I Heard from a bum who claims to be SWIM, But I Forgot... And Again, "I" Refers To Someone Who Is Not Me.
