DMT (N, N-Dimethyltryptamine) is known as the world’s most powerful hallucinogen. It gained popularity since the general rise of interest in psychedelics, like LSD, mescaline, and magic mushrooms.
DMT is a compound that naturally exists in our bodies and gets released when you actually die, but can also be awakened during deep breathwork sessions. Besides that, DMT can be found in ayahuasca, a toad in the Amazon, or in other types of plants.
It is so powerful because many people experience ‘ego-death’. You basically die, enter into a different Universe, and come back again reborn. Many people are not afraid of real death anymore after using this psychedelic, since they realize that there is much more life after dying.
My own DMT experience didn’t involve ego-death, but it did reveal some other interesting insights.
