I went to my room and listened to some medeski, martin and wood and I really didn’t feel anything. So at about 6 in the morning, maybe a little later I went to bed because I was so tired. Next thing I know I wake up and I’m rubbing my hands all over my body, I can hear birds chirping, but I don’t open my eyes. I’m semi-consciously rubbing myself and finally I come to realize that rubbing myself should not feel this good and the birds chirping should not sound so beautiful, it was unnatural how good the morning felt. I open my eyes and look at my clock and it says 7:30. Then I look up at the ceiling and notice some patterning, real clear feeling.
At this point, I knew the stuff was working. The next 20 minutes I felt like I was in heaven, total ecstasy. I just laid in bed and closed my eyes, sometimes, sometimes opened them and had the most amazing visions. After 20 minutes, I realized I needed to piss and that I’m not as high as I originally felt, figured it was just a morning thing. I figured I woke up with DMT running through me so I must have felt the rush of waking up and now its gone. I get up to go to the bathroom, come back, lay down and close my eyes.
As I tried to sleep the stuff really kicked in. Long story short, I spent the next 6 hours rolling around in total ecstasy, having the wildest visions, writing the coolest poetry I’ve ever written. It was mother’s day and I made my mom a card that she absolutely loved. Everything was infinite, and everything was one. At the same time everything was constantly changing but yet it was all the same because it was all one. I felt like this giant jellyfish creature that extends infinitely and the visions were so colorful and amazing; kaleidoscope versions of Alex Grey's paintings -- that guy hit DMT experiences right on with his artwork. Everything made sense to me, my whole life, everything I ever did, every choice I ever made.
It’s now the day after and plenty of sleep since and I feel like a different person. I have this inner peace I never felt before. I have taken plenty of LSD and mushrooms, smoked a bunch of DMT, but never have I had such a spiritual experience in my life. I felt like I was underwater but at the same time on the shore of what I called the “shoze-oac” sea, a word that somehow just came into my mind. I was completely out of body, in the sense I couldn’t feel my body, I could just feel my visions slicing through me in waves, but yet I could hear myself “sniffle,” but I couldn’t feel it. All the sick sounds my body made showed me that my drug habits are hurting my body, my soul may be clear for I felt blessed to have this trip, but I was warned that I was damaging my body by this black figure of some woman that kissed me cheeks behind closed eyelids and whispered some sort of warning, which I think pertained to how I need to treat my body better.
I was thinking of people in my life and I felt like I understood everyone and I fell in love with them. I just wanted to tell everyone I loved them, of coarse I didn’t because that would be ridiculous at the given time under the given circumstances. I’ve never felt such love for myself, and I think that’s the answer to life. Love yourself, take things as they come, be patient, and take care of what you need to take care of. Don’t procrastinate; there’s always reasons not to do things, and you need to quit looking the other way on them and get them done.
It was the most beautiful and loving morning I have ever experienced. I could have slept through it, but whatever god or force (or vine) decided to wake me up to experience this pure form of bliss had blessed me. I felt like I was kissed by god and selected for this experience.
Something I didn’t mention earlier about this trip because I wanted to make the story brief, but now I’m on a roll, is I cooked it with a friend from work. We went out drinking the night before (hence the spuradic dose, which was more like 20 grams of syrian rue and probably close to 40 of mimosa, I wanted it to work real bad). Anyways, when we were listening to music at first he started talking about how he was already feeling it, I didn’t believe him. He was younger than me and makes up a lot of stuff. Anyways, after I went to sleep and woke up again, he was asleep. I woke him up to tell him he’s missing out on the most introspective experience of his life and he wasn’t feeling it! I couldn’t believe it, I was feeling amazing and he couldn’t feel it and slept right through it! Weird, huh? So that adds to my feeling that God chose me for this experience. During my trip I felt I could pass positive energy into his dreams so I did so and I think it worked, we’ll never know, he can’t remember. At this point I thought I had mind connections, telepathy, with everyone since everything is one

That stuff is no joke and don’t do it until your ready. Everything has a new “love” light to it and I feel at peace. I know what I did was spuradic at the moment at 3 in the morning making it, but I had been meaning to do this forever. And maybe, trips are better when they’re not planned. I noticed that when I plan out a date and place to trip, and who to do it with, it adds anxiety because everything has to be perfect. I think I just need to do it when the time is right. As Dr. Hunter S. Thompson says, “You don't look for acid! Acid finds you when *it* thinks you're ready.”
And when it thinks you’re ready ayahuasca will find you and the great vine will speak to you and change your life. Don’t be impatient, if you want to try ayahuasca, you will. Pleasant trips fellow people. Oh yeah, I’m never touching heroin again because of this :).
