Today, I saw the information that the US DEA plans on placing this precious substance into Schedule 1. It breaks my heart.

From time to time in the past several years I have had the privilege to partake in personal research with 5-Meo-DMT. I recall my younger days in college when LSD was available. I remember how, at the trailing end of the LSD experience, there was an emergence back into the reality of things. During this process of 'coming back', my priorities were re-considered. Truth and honesty, work and dedication, the natural order of things, and love were raised to a higher level in my consciousness.

My experience with 5-Meo-DMT brought the same. 5-Meo-DMT causes in me a sensation of being zero and one at the same time.

I feel as if I am one with everything. I feel both large and small - simultaneously. I feel bliss and know sublime. I experience the mystical connection with the entire universe. I awake on 'the other side'. I break from my ego. My thoughts stop for a moment and then re-start, they reset, with the resulting emergence back. It is at that time that the insights come. They always do. It is at that time there is a chance to fix things - to make the resolutions. My focus always ends up on the subject of the important things and what to do about them. I have written the insights down. I have acted upon them. I wrote and published a book on the subject.

While emerging, the interconnection of things is clear. The reasons for truth and honesty becomes clear. A failure to be truthful to myself or others will break the natural order of things. A failure to work and commit will cause my dreams to not be realized. And a failure to connect with the ones I love has a cascade effect.

5-Meo-DMT has shown me things in a different perspective. It deserves to be respected because it literally tears me apart. But then, my thoughts have a chance to start from the beginning, without mistake, without taint. It has helped me find my way.

I will find a way to know it again.
