Consciousness is kind of like the interaction.

Reality kind of emerges by the interaction of all of these perspectives, these conscious agents, if you like.

Everyone, all these points of subjective perspective.

I think that's probably closer to what ultimate reality is.

But I think it's very difficult.

I'm a neuroscientist.

So I focus on not consciousness per se, but on what I can get my teeth into.

I can get my teeth into the content, into the structure, the actual meat and potatoes.

I've never used that phrase before.

It's a good phrase.

Yeah.

The meat and potatoes of the DMT experience, things that I can talk about and analyze.

That's, you know, what I'm trying to do, I think, is I'm not trying to tell people what I think DMT is.

I'm just trying to convince them that it's not what they think it is, that it's not just hallucination, that it's not these are not dreams, that kind of thing.

Yeah.

No, it's impossible to do.

No big deal.

I was interacting with a guy on Twitter and X who referred to entity encounters as illusory social events, ISEs, which to me was just the most absurd watered down.

I mean, this guy had obviously never encountered a fucking DMT entity or he wouldn't.

But the idea that this is just an illusory social event just seemed to me absurd.
