Rob Konrad's video: DMT our Brain and the Prophetic Experience Dr Rick Strassman Rob Konrad: Conversations 012

Apologies for the bad video / syncing issues in this episode. We had some connectivity issues. In the early 1990s Dr. Rick Strassman, was granted approval to conduct research with one of the strongest hallucinogens, DMT. At the time he was the first scientist in over 2 decades allowed to test the effects of psychedelic drugs on live subjects, and his results were groundbreaking and led him to call DMT the “Spirit Molecule”. But after he completed his research he still felt that a major question had been left unanswered: Could the vivid hallucinogenic experiences caused by DMT possibly be more than just hallucinations? Rick started to notice that many of his subjects had strikingly similar experiences, regardless of the life experience, culture, or religious background of the person taking the drug. These experiences are often described as “more real than real”; they’re different to what people experience on other psychedelic drugs. Could it be that DMT doesn’t simply TRICK our brain into dreaming up another reality - but is actually the key to “tuning” our brains in to another reality? Rick was compelled to ask if DMT, in fact, enabled us to see aspects of reality beyond the horizon of what we can usually perceive? Determined to join the dots, Rick ventured into researching the similarities between DMT experiences and the prophetic states described by people throughout history - and particularly in the Hebrew Bible. In this fascinating conversation, Rob and Rick deep-dive into the results of his research, discuss the validity of his underlying assumptions, and go on a journey that explores the boundaries of our understanding of the human brain and spirituality. ▶▶ NEW EPISODE EVERY WEDNESDAY! ----- ▶▶ SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL - Conversations with extraordinary people that motivate and inspire you to make a change.
