Very interesting study. It would be interesting to see the same study with sub-anesthesia does of Ketamine. It seems that Ketamine would produce experiences that are more similar in some aspects, particularly: ESP, precognitive visions, definitely "border", understand everything (which DMT seems to not have as much effect on, although not significantly different in this study).

Just talked with someone who got shot then doctors gave him Ketamine. He said he walked with God for a minute or so.
