N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT) is a Schedule I hallucinogenic drug that occurs naturally in some plants but also in the human brian. The effects of DMT are varied but often leads to experiences where the user believes himself to be in an alternate reality, often described as more real than normal reality. And while each person's experience is unique, what is perhaps the most surprising of all are people's accounts of meeting and talking to sentient beings who impart wisdom, and sometimes predict future events. Is this something that exists entirely inside the mind or is DMT a gateway to a different reality? And is there any correlation to the similarities between DMT experiences and Near Death Experiences, the Faerie Realm, and the Alien Abduction Phenomenon?
