Did DMT Help Write the Old Testament?

Hey everyone!

You know... when we first started working with Dr Rick Strassman we we're just loving every second of it, but we never imagined we'd get to make three whole videos with him! It's been a wild trip... and we're really about to breakthrough with this finale ;)

For centuries the hallmark of spiritual experience has been the entering of a Mystical or Prophetic state where you become open to the Divine and allow its wisdom to flow through you... unhinged... unfiltered and unapologetic. 

In Ancient Times, people who would enter these states and return with writings were often called prophets or mystics... but as far as we knew, the Age of Prophecy had ended... after all, there hasn't been any new great testaments or religious texts in centuries.

But... what if it was returning?

Rick's new work has been looking at the different models for how we can interpret a Psychedelic Experience. Since the 60s we've had the typical scientific approach of 'it's all just your brain creating stuff'... but what if the brain was in-fact designed to facilitate spiritual downloads from a higher source? Naturally... the Spirit Molecule would play a huge part of that, right?

We've looked at Buddhist and the other East Asian interpretations... but no one seems to acknowledge the founding Western Religions as a framework for Psychedelic Experience. The Hebrew Bible is filled with prophecies, mystical visions and experiences of meeting angels, demons and God... and if you really take a second to look at the visions of Ezekiel or Moses on Mt. Sinai, you might notice something...

They're pretty close to a modern day DMT experience...

That's what Rick noticed too... and that's when he came up with an entirely new framework, one that finally accounts for endogenous DMT and how the beings of Higher Planes can use it to engage with us... which has huge ramifications for our own personal relationship with the Divine... and he can't wait to tell you all about it in today's video!

Were the Ancient Prophets simply activating their own endogenous DMT when they went into their temples? Or maybe... being in the right place at the right time... with the right tools, a Higher Force could boost our connection to the Divine and reveal true Prophecy...

As always,
Love & Light
