"I was eager to dive in, so I went first. I smoked DMT in a snake skin pipe, with some ground Banisteriopsis cappi root bark, used as an MAOl to extend and inhibit the breakdown for a longer experience. I proceeded to have an Instant breakthrough into a full Out of Body Experience.

It started with accelerating geometric shapes exploding outward until a powerful sound/vibration shoved me through like a portal. Then came a parade of recognizable mandalas and intricate geometries. Mischievous digital-like elves jumped in and out of me playfully, until I figured out their 'language' and communicated back. They all then cheered in excitement.

Suddenly, I entered an ultra-real realm, like Isengard meets ancient Atlantis, a stunning Greek-inspired city. Beings there felt more real than anything in ordinary life. They greeted me warmly but gently explained I wasn't supposed to be there yet and guided me away. Things got even wilder: I dissolved into pure energy and met a tall, emotionless but straightforward mantis being.

We conversed telepathically. He asked, 'What do you want to know?' I half-jokingly asked if they had computer games there. He scoffed like it was absurd, then showed me a real-time galactic-scale simulation of asteroids hurtling through space. I then got serious and asked to see the true nature of Earth.

'Now we're talking,' he said. He revealed a torus structure with Earth at the center, a hollow form with a massive waterfall cascading through the core, and what felt like the World Tree rooted right in the middle.

He explained that everything in the universe is ultimately one. Then came a profound life review: some choices l'd made would harm my physical body over time, but emotionally, I'd be okay and there's no need to worry.

Finally, I was transported to a stone circle of glowing runes, my ancestors resting place. I became deeply emotional. I then returned through a peaceful peach-colored light, snapped back into the room, and immediately burst into uncontrollable tears. This was one of the most intense, meaningful experiences of my life."
