Unnamed Speaker 1

Well, I think you need to know what's going on when you're interacting with the being. What you were describing reminded me of Zechariah, one of the prophets in the Bible, who was experiencing a vision of horses. Well, of horses, one time, another time it was the menorah, the candlestick in the temple.

vision of that and he was speaking with an angel and the angel said to him what do you see and Zechariah said I don't know that's why I'm asking you and the angel says well do you know then don't you know why don't you know and he said I don't know that's the reason I'm asking and then the angel describes the meaning of the vision

vision of that and he was speaking with an angel and the angel said to him what do you see and Zechariah said I don't know that's why I'm asking you and the angel says well do you know then don't you know why don't you know and he said I don't know that's the reason I'm asking and then the angel describes the meaning of the vision

vision of that and he was speaking with an angel and the angel said to him what do you see and Zechariah said I don't know that's why I'm asking you and the angel says well do you know then don't you know why don't you know and he said I don't know that's the reason I'm asking and then the angel describes the meaning of the vision

Yeah. You know, so if you know what to ask or if you know how to ask, I think it makes it more likely you'll get, you know, an answer that you can use.

Yeah. You know, so if you know what to ask or if you know how to ask, I think it makes it more likely you'll get, you know, an answer that you can use.

Yeah. You know, so if you know what to ask or if you know how to ask, I think it makes it more likely you'll get, you know, an answer that you can use.

You can do knockouts, knockout mutations. You can develop, let's say, a strain of rats that is knocked. The gene for the expression of a certain protein, like a receptor, is knocked out. Oh, really? Yeah, they're called knockout genes, knockout mice, knockout rats.

You can do knockouts, knockout mutations. You can develop, let's say, a strain of rats that is knocked. The gene for the expression of a certain protein, like a receptor, is knocked out. Oh, really? Yeah, they're called knockout genes, knockout mice, knockout rats.

You can do knockouts, knockout mutations. You can develop, let's say, a strain of rats that is knocked. The gene for the expression of a certain protein, like a receptor, is knocked out. Oh, really? Yeah, they're called knockout genes, knockout mice, knockout rats.

Yeah, you knock out the gene. For example, for the serotonin 2A receptor, you can breed animals Yeah, there's an enzyme that's involved in the synthesis of DMT. You can make knockout mice that don't make that enzyme.

Yeah, you knock out the gene. For example, for the serotonin 2A receptor, you can breed animals Yeah, there's an enzyme that's involved in the synthesis of DMT. You can make knockout mice that don't make that enzyme.

Yeah, you knock out the gene. For example, for the serotonin 2A receptor, you can breed animals Yeah, there's an enzyme that's involved in the synthesis of DMT. You can make knockout mice that don't make that enzyme.

They never have the enzyme. Right. No, no. And they still make DMT, which is very interesting. It's a it's an enzyme called indole and methyl transferase. And that's the way that tryptamine is methylated into DMT. In making DMT, the body first takes in tryptophan from the diet, which becomes tryptamine, and then two methyl groups are added on to the tryptamine to make dimethyltryptamine.

They never have the enzyme. Right. No, no. And they still make DMT, which is very interesting. It's a it's an enzyme called indole and methyl transferase. And that's the way that tryptamine is methylated into DMT.

In making DMT, the body first takes in tryptophan from the diet, which becomes tryptamine, and then two methyl groups are added on to the tryptamine to make dimethyltryptamine.

Yeah, and there's an enzyme, INMT, which you can knock out the gene that produces it, but they still produce DMT.

Yeah, and there's an enzyme, INMT, which you can knock out the gene that produces it, but they still produce DMT.

Yeah, and there's an enzyme, INMT, which you can knock out the gene that produces it, but they still produce DMT.

No, it just continues. Nick Glenos in Ann Arbor did his doctoral work looking at those knockout animals. And they still make DMT. Yeah, you were saying that you had Dave Nichols in the other day. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, you know, so, you know, what is endogenous DMT doing? Which is a, you know, its own conversation. Yeah. Yeah, you know, concentrations in the brain actually are rather high, Nick.
