Is DMT a shortcut to God, or something far stranger? In this rare interview, Dr. Rick Strassman — author of DMT: The Spirit Molecule — joins me to explore what people actually experience during powerful DMT trips. From visions of non-human entities to biblical-level encounters, this conversation will shake up everything you think you know about spirituality, science, and consciousness. We talk about: * Why DMT experiences aren’t always blissful * Biblical visions (like Ezekiel’s) and DMT parallels * Whether these beings are “real” or archetypal * How Strassman’s views have evolved since his original research * What this all means for the psychedelic renaissance
