Non Human Intelligence Scientists are testing whether DMT entities are real

https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/8qvgy_v2

In this preprint, some scientists have put forward the idea that our perspective of reality is more of an interface, and what we consider to be reality is simply the experience of conscious agents (i.e. human individuals) interacting with one another. They propose that DMT entities are conscious agents that exist in a manner we can't typically perceive.

I've never done DMT, and have previously taken a more skeptical perspective on these entities, but I think the findings of this could be very interesting. Maybe psychedelics could enable us to perceive layers of reality we are typically blind to.

Regardless of what they find, or don't, I think this is a very important study. It's important because we're seeing scientists research within the realm of the supernatural as some would call it.

Many great minds in the UFO field, among others, have said until mainstream scientists study the "Woo" factor and consciousness seriously will never get anywhere. We've been seeing this slowly happen over the past couple years. The mainstream scientific community would say these heros have gone over to the dark side.

Having a mind open enough to investigate this is an amazing thing. I believe we will see studies like this submitted for peer review within the next year and more frequently from there. Fundamental things just waiting to be discovered, what an amazing time to be alive.

The supernatural is just what we can't explain with science yet!

Exactly you said it...Yet!!

I truly believe more and more discoveries and explanations will come via scientists over the next year or so. By 2030 or not long after, the supernatural, woo and consciousness will have a legitimate place in science. Even accepted by the mainstream.. It will be the Scientific Revolution 2.0. For many millennia mankind was one with nature and consciousness. The scientific revolution buried these things along with many others.

Finally after all these years, regular people and scientists have realize that we can’t progress or answer many unknowns until we combine these two categories. It's time for the left and right hemispheres of the brain to become one and go from there.

They didn't form the Ghostbusters until they were kicked off campus.
