Put your (cosmic) thinking cap on and give yourself an extra hour this weekend (an hour and 13 minutes, to be exact), to have a look at this fascinating, mind-bending, and visually compelling documentary.

This is a documentary about Dimethyltryptamine (DMT) found in various plants of nature, and most of all, actively in Ayahuasca.

“The fractal nature of reality,” is how one person describes dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a psychoactive compound found naturally in a multitude of plants and animals – and all humans. In the mid-1990s, Dr. Rick Strassman began the first government-sanctioned, human studies on psychedelic drugs in the USA in more than 20 years. His focus? DMT.

In this video called “The Spirit Molecule”, don’t expect any Leary-esque, “turn-on, tune-in, drop-out” 60s sound-bytes. But DO expect profound insights and spiritual “aha!’s” from ‘serious’ scientists in fields as far apart as psychiatry, pharmacology, ethnobotany, radiology, anthropology and even mathematics.

Where do science and spiritually meet? It may be right here.

Get ready to re-think your ideas of reality. Join UCSD physicist Kim Griest as he takes you on a fascinating excursion, addressing some of the massive efforts and tantalizing bits of evidence which suggest that what goes on in empty space determines the properties of the three-dimensional existence we know and love, and discusses how that reality may be but the wiggling of strings from other dimensions.
