A DMT trip 'feels like dying' – and scientists now agree
&gt; “There is nothing here to begin to enable us to propose that on DMT, you literally transcend the laws of this universe and do actually go to another world,” he says.<p>This is faulty thinking. An afterlife doesn’t presuppose a violation of natural laws, or a separate world. It just means you continue living in a different form.<p>The only thing that would be required for that is a causal relationship (yet to be observed in science) between your dying mind and some other living structure.<p>The causal eelationship needn’t even be mind-out. If your mind is caused by the enduring structure and you experience its presence at death, that would be physically indistinguishable from you becoming that thing.<p>Given that we continue to discover entirely new structures in both the biological world and our own bodies, which were hiding in plain sight, I don’t find this implausible.<p>That’s not to mention psychoaocial structures which science hardly can model, and to which our individual minds are very tightly coupled.
