@Dolphin Thanks for sharing! Will try it for sure someday!

What do you argue about?

Really interesting how some people get no visuals from DMT. I am also one of them. Most I got where some rotating patterns on my wall or in the clouds, but with my eyes closed I don´t see anything. Just that indescribable feeling.

@Guru Fat Bastard @AlwaysBeNice Thanks for your replies! I won´t buy his course

So today I visited a little free lecture by a meditation teacher in my area about transcendental meditation. It was great, because me and my friend were the only people there so it was quite a personal meeting. It was really nice to talk to him about all these different topics and he made the impression that he really knew what he was talking about. He is 73 years old and teaches transcendental meditation for 40 years now. He was personally trained by Maharishi Mahesh, was really present and talked a lot about transcendence of self, connection to source and a few different concepts. I don´t think he is that awake when it comes to God-conciousness or Love but I think that I can learn a lot from him. The problem is that his little course for learning transcendental meditation (4 days - 2 hours every day) is heavily overpriced: 590€! That is really a lot of money for me at the moment... I would really love to learn from and talk to some experienced meditatiors in my area (and they are really rare here), because I want to learn some specific techniques and not just dabble around alone. What do you guys think? Is that investment worth it or should I look for some other oppportunities? I have a lot of ideas and possibilities to invest my money into (more about that topic in another post). Is it wise to learn meditation from a teacher or can I do it for myself ( well I already did for 2 years now but I think there still is a lot of potential for growth)? What do you think about transcendental meditation in general?

That is a really great idea! I would love to see that happen! But I think that the forum activity would drop significantly. I don´t know if that´s a good thing or not

Great article! “No valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.” "Tomorrow and plans for tomorrow can have no significance at all unless you are in full contact with the reality of the present, since it is in the present and only in the present that you live.” ~Alan Watts Or another way to say it: "No Self, No Problem!"

Well, I've only got one true friend at the moment so there's no chance that half of my friends don't like me However I think there's some truth to this in the context of a larger social circle. I would call these people in my life "friends" , but there's no deep connection and therefore no deep, real friendship.

@Mind of a beast You're welcome There are many ways and practices, you can explore what resonates most. Meditation, Mindfulness, Psychedelics, being in nature, doing retreats, journaling, Yoga, deep breathing, visualization, contemplation and self-inquiry are just a few examples. Learn how to get into Flow. Have an Awakening into the Nature of Love. Read and learn about self transcendence. Study your rolemodels. What have they done to write such phenomenal books? Find a mentor.

@Tobias L Hey, that´s a great idea! Really resonates. I am in a very similiar position, I think we can really support each other through a connection like that I´ll send you a message with my phone number! ~ Philip

@Mind of a beast Transcend yourself and work on raising your consciousness. Then write a book about your journey and what techniques you used to get there.

@danilofaria I guess it depends on the individual. Many people who put zero effort into their connection with God will never truly feel anything, but there are some religious people who put a lot of effort into their spiritual growth and for them it is possible to glimpse God. But sadly many will only see and interpret it through their specific religious lense and be so biased and closeminded that they never get to a full awakening.

@Ali T Follow your bliss. Do the practices that resonate. There is no need to rush. The result of awakening is the absence of fear and the presence of Love. Only ego fears.

Take 100% resposibility for your life, create a compelling vision and commit 100% to it. Also look into the topics of how you can raise your confidence and love yourself unconditionally. Self-Love is key.

@Mind of a beast Well, I guess through your zone of genius. What is your zone of genius and what is your ideal medium? In what way can you express yourself that helps other poeple transcend themselves? You need a be very specific with that .... That´s something I need to calrify for myself as well

@Leo Gura Thanks for your reply! Damn ... I find it really unfortunate that it doesn´t give me that visionary vibe and that it doesn´t put me even close to that God-state, but i guess that´s just the way it is Definetly But I wanted to go with the best that´s out there. I guess I can use it for many different things in the future. I´ll also try the vape pen. Well thanks, than that will be my next experiment Have you ever tried phramahuasca? Yeah ... It´s really hard to inhale all that vapor... @karkaore Thanks, read already through that Soon I will see if there are differences for me with the Vape pen or the Mighty.

So I have finally been able to get my hands on some N,N-DMT and want to share my first few experiences. The first 3 attempts I tried vaping it with an oil pipe. Dosages ranged from 20mg to 50 mg. All I felt was a low body high, no visuals, nothing special. As the dose increased, the body sensations got stronger. I guess my technique was quite bad and I burned some of the DMT and did not inhale deep enough. Because I did not want to waste more DMT, I decided to order the Mighty-Vaporizer from Storz& Bickel. I saw some good reviews and thought it would work way better for me, because I don´t have such strong lungs. And it did. I started with 40mg, set the temperature at 180°C and took 3 big tokes. The vapor was really pleasant and smooth to inhale. I felt this body high again but 1000x stronger than the last time. Still no visuals or insights. Still in my room. 1-2 hours later I put another 65mg in the Mighty and inhaled 3 times. Now I heard a light tingeling in my ears, and felt a very high vibration energy. It was even hard to take the third toke and my body was shaking and vibrating like crazy. Nothing unpleasant but nothing pleasant either. I laid back and was very very slightly introdcued into some kind of "space", but it was a very short experience. 1-2 hours later I tried it again with another 40mg. Kind of the same results but a little bit stronger. I was happy about the progress but not quite satisfied or fascinated. So I tried it again a few days later. This time with 80mg in the Mighty. I took 3 big tokes and it shot me right out of my body into .... whatever that was First toke: Tingeling in the ears, weird feeling in the body Second toke: lights intensified, became more orange/yellow like and I saw some light patterns Third toke: I did not know where the vaporizor was anymore and was completely in another "space" It´s very hard to describe these experiences, but there was a feeling of "Wow!". I lost the sense of time and asked myself: "Am I dreaming right now?" It felt like a quick rolercoaster, but a very fast one But there were still very very little visuals in that "place", it was more like normal darkness with very distant shapes and patterns. I came back and saw really beautiful shapes and geometry on the walls and laughed very loudly after I thought about what just happened. I found it quite interesting and wanted to take it further, because it definitely did not feel like a "breakthrough". A few days later: Around 85mg in the Mighty. --> Kind of a similar experience. My thoughts after i came back: "What just happened? I don´t know... It fades so fast. It feels kind of sacred, alien and mysterious, but I don´t know what to make of the experience. So I tried it again and again (3-4 times) over the course of a month or two. With dosages from 90-115mg. The results and conclusions were kind of the same every time. For me it just feels so beyond ... I always got that feeling that I left my body and was going somewhere, but with very little/ near to no visuals (which I find kind of strange from what I´ve heard about NN-DMT), no entities and no special insights. So I just don´t know what to take away or learn from it other than that I am not the body and that it is really fascinating that a substance can take you so far out of your ordinary reality so fast It´s quite interesting but for me it was nothing that changed my perspective radically and it is definetly not a fitting tool for this work. I guess I need to get my hands on some 5-MeO One day a friend of mine who in not really into psychedelics tried 30mg in the Mighty (he just took 1-3 very weak tokes) and was gone into elf-land, saw magical animals and talked to trees.(He had open eyes all along and was in the forest, and I only experienced it with closed eyes in my bed). It´s really interesting how different DMT affects different people. My plans are to make changa and pharmahuasca, play around with mao inhibitors and try different vaping methods. What are your favorite/ most successful vaping methods for vaping DMT? And what do you guys think about my experinces? Has anyone had similar ones? Any other tips? It´s really hard/impossible to describe these experiences but I tried my best. Forgive me for my not so perfect english-skills.

Haha, yeah. All of a sudden everything you see is about awakening
