If you're reading this, thanks for being here

“Reality is already the greatest trip.” Love that.

“I’m not supposed to have access to all that wisdom right now” brilliant. I could never put in words why I stopped. It made the mind and soul TOO FAST to be here and experience THIS REALITY. Sure it feels amazing to know, really know in your soul that you hold infinity inside you…. But, you don’t fit in your spot anymore! Coming down was always such a relief because everything fit again! This is MY SPOT. Only I belong here and we don’t belong out there. We can visit. We will return. But we will miss everything given to us in this life if we stay there. Brilliant analysis thanks!

I agree. I love psychedelics. But. I’ve also have come to the realization that all that I experience and learn during the trips is never really gone once I come back down to base reality. It’s like the saying “As above, so below”. You kind of come out of it realizing you are the same entity in the psychedelic headspace as you are in base reality. Before you take psychedelics you have these grandiose expectations of what’s gonna happen during and how you are going to come out of the experience and be but you realize that the thing you are searching for is already inside of you but to get that thing is to completely let go of trying to obtain it. After going through an introspective psychedelic experience you come out of it changed and yet nothing has changed. It’s simply a shift in perspective and perception that results in profound realizations that helps orient oneself in their experience of life to live with meaning and a purpose to give one’s life to others.

I can't help but thank you man, you've helped me today. This video is some synchronicity at work.

My psychedelic journey was over a few years ago and I just ran across your video and I just want to say that this is a great video with a lot of dope insights and perspectives. You don’t need DMT, reality is the dopest trip, I felt that, my 7th or 8th DMT trip, about a year after my second 5MEO trip, while on DMT I interacted with a female, mother like energy who at first was so powerful and godlike that I got scored and in my trip I got on fetal position, and she told me, ahhhh, you’re still a baby, and the trip took a weird turn and I just felt loved and understood, felt like home, and she kept hugging me, loving me and told me, you don’t need this, you’re doing just fine and I’m happy and excited for you, I’m proud, you don’t need to come here anymore, and since then, I’ve never taken any psychedelics and I’ve been more present than ever before, I found peace with the idea of myself and my loved ones dying at some point because I have the deep believe that we’re all infinite. Thanks for sharing this man!

Smokes DMT for 30 days straight. First bit of advice is “You don’t need DMT” 😂

Excellent insights. I’m 71. Used to do psychedelics occasionally. Clean and sober now for nearly 37 years. Still learning. Appreciate your share so much!

This is really grounding and profound. Thank you for sharing.

Ur a fantastic speaker man, keep creating, what you’re doing is valuable

You are still a young man Tristan but your awareness is on par or beyond that of many people I've met who have been on their quest for many decades. As such, I agree with you that one doesn't need to take DMT or other strong hallucinogens but, let's face it, it DOES accelerate the awareness process…many times over. Yer, as for everything else, there is a price to pay when you accelerate so much: integrating it in a simple, grateful lifestyle can take a long and often painful time. Thank you for your clear explanation and for sharing the light of your consciousness. Bless you son. 🙏🏼

Great speech, we are all connected across the globe, some same thoughts over the last week's. Much love from Germany keep on going

This is one of the most insightful videos on psychedelics I have ever seen, I am only 6 minutes in. Thank you, very helpful video.

Hey I am Glad that you made it back, there IS wisdom in your words. I wish you the BEST LIFE has to offer. Thanks

this dude seems to be a musician

The thing with psychedelics is that people do then too often. Once or twice a year for a strong psychedelic (or once or twice a month for cannabis) teaches you a lot and is not overwhelming to integrate. DMT everyday for a month is really, really insane

On my way out the other side of this detour, your message is very helpful and motivating to keep walking back towards my own humanity. Thank you

Not only is it OK to fail, it's essential in order to learn the most valuable lessons in life where you know something because you experienced it and not because you heard it or read it from someone else. And congratulations on getting so many views and comments with so few subscribers. Your presentation style is concise and effective without any unnecessary filler that goes off topic or is designed to self-promote.

“We’re always in a conversation with God.” As a Christian, this is really interesting. If everything I do is being observed by Him and if I know this, then everything I do is being communicated to Him. Everything he created (everything) is constantly reflecting patterns of His own creation back to itself. Beautiful

from psychonaut to psychonaut i couldn't agree more on the first point. What most people don't know (or for the sake of sour grapes, act oblivious to) is that you can get a psychedelic headspace and the introspective qualities through meditation. Reader, you don't have to go through the herculean task of hyperfocusing on one sense or feeling for 1 hour a day, just do 10 mins, and forgive yourself if you get sidetracked :)

I hady first trip the other day. Definitely can confirm. You don't need to smoke it. Amazing experience. Don't get me wrong. But it was unnecessary. I realized immediately I'm already alive. I didn't need to be there. I was welcome to be there, but it showed me that I've been doing much better and should just keep doing what I've been doing to prepare for whats next. I'm just excited to be alive. I am very grateful that you have had the experience you did, and I'm so happy you shared.

I really appreciate this video man, i couldnt put into words the experience of having so much wisdom and knowledge beyond the spot i am supposed to be in. It feels like I took a shortcut and mentally im 10 years ahead of the life i should have lived. Im not grounded anymore and im battling my own brain to stay grounded in reality

When you sent you went on a detour, I greatly felt that. I was in the same place and now I am back on track. Presence is the greatest gift

For as true as it is that you do not need to smoke DMT… I’m not sure I’ve seen anyone articulate these fleeting and formless and abstract thoughts as well as you have. This vid, your vibe, and your channel are awesome.

hey man, I really vibe with your balanced take on life. It is refreshing to hear someone speak so honestly about psychedelics and their place in people's journey through life. It is a tool, like anything else can be, to help us become more aware of ourselves and thus connect more to our infiniteness. Anything in life can be that tool too. Anything in life can also distance us from that as well. It depends on how we use our God given awareness and what we choose to focus on. I am saying this from a place of still learning how to do that better! I love your ability to be real with all of this. Thank you.

brilliant talk ! I am grateful for you sharing your experience. I was floored when you mentioned this is your first video; you absolutely have a propensity for speaking in a deft, composed manner on camera. One recommendation I have is, experiment with adding time stamps. I just finished the vid and in an attempt to recall one of your previous lessons, it hit me to shoot you my feedback. Keep creating! I would love to dive deeper into your cultivated perspectives.

An yet you took it for 30 days. And you would have never gained these insights otherwise.

That was your first video!? Damn man, bravo. Well shit, I'm subscribed. Can't wait to hear what else you have to say. I stumbled here because of DMT but I just want to say that I and I think many others would love to hear more about your views on life in general. Not necessarily in direct relation to DMT. (If you're wondering what direction this channel should take). Best of luck to you man!

I never bother to comment, but I wanted to say I love your energy and I have subscribed. So keep making these exactly how you are😊

fuck yeah man, definitely anyone whos done enough psychs has resonated to your message and experience in some capacity. Thank you for sharing, i hope the good finds its way to you!

This is an amazing video. So full of real, spiritual wisdom. You have a really mature understanding. Thanks for sharing!

This video was amazing. The bravery you showcase in being so open is inspiring.

spoken with gentle presence, well done

This video really helped me remember this type of perspective as sometimes it’s easy to forget this knowledge and wisdom. Thanks 🙏🙏🙏

Love the Aurhenticity and courage to post! “Truth needs no defending!” No defending needed here

I’ll be here for more content, this really helped. Thank you for sharing.

Also, I use Psilocybin for depression... every 1-4 weeks. When I need a booster in between doses, that's when I break out a single 20-30mg dose of DMT, and I'm back in the moment in 10 minutes. The key is using it every couple of weeks, in a single moderate dose... don't chase brealthroughs. I was aphantasic before I had ak NDE... That occasional dose, has imcreased my ability to form mental pictures.

Great video, I agree with a lot of what you had to say and appreciate you posting your thoughts/lessons. Great job for a first video!

Thanks for sharing. Great advice as well. You talking about synchronicity reminded me of my limited DMT experience. The gist of it, ran across this guy I was friends with but haven’t spoken to in like 15 years, twice in 2 weeks. Very random spots I never go. We connected instantly on T McKenna and psychedelics. So we end up linking and he shared his stash with me. Wicked experience but that’s not what I’m here to talk about. The day after smoking with him I got a strong feeling/message saying that the beings I met in the experience were behind those synchronous events. So after work that day I went to a typical spot I go to ground and play guitar after work. I typically park in the same place but had a desire to change it up and parked a little further from my normal spot. Got out of the car and on the curb next to my rear tire had graffiti ‘DMT :)’

Thanks for sharing, you’ve put it into words perfectly. I’m excited about upcoming videos!

Thanks for sharing your experience. You can’t believe how much it resonated with me. Synchronicity at its best.

Loved the video dude, thanks for the insights. Keep em coming!

Thank you for dropping this video! 😤 amazing content. I love the authenticity

That was excellent! Very well thought out. I genuinely enjoyed watching this video.

Thank you for sharing this with the world, Tristan. Your messages in this help crystalize lessons that I've learned myself during my experiences but could never put words to them. Everything is already inside of you!

The lessons are for you. They're not for anyone else.

So enlightening, and soo soo refreshing not hearing someone on youtube covertly begging for us to like and subscribe at the end. So for that reason i did!🎉

Thanks, Tris. That was beautiful. Was a reminder of what I felt on my journey. I needed to hear those things. Thanks again.

I relate/agree with everything you have to say! So lovely that you felt like sharing with everyone. Feels like this came exactly when it needed to! Best of luck with everything you do next ❤

Tristan .. Educating the world on the Potential positive & life changing benefits of DMT along with outlying your experiences first hand is brilliant. I would love to continue my journey with DMT - I think it will take off in a massive way over the next few years. ❤ Thank you for your video .. I’ve used the expression in attempting to communicate the powerful effects of DMT To a unlikeable human ‘ I said ITS YOU, ME & DMT .. said with confidence using the knowledge - no one can escape their mind when experiencing the trip. They have refused to take me up on the offer. Which I confidently knew they wouldn’t. I am at peace with who I am, A good person. When there is evil. DMT has the reputation of breaking that person. Facing one’s self can put the absolute fear of god in some people ..& so it should. But then, who is he to judge ?! 🦋

Great video. Thank you for sharing your light. Your insight deeply resonates with me. You came at the perfect time. May you always be blessed. Thank you for blessing us. Thank you.

Wise words homie, keep it up 🤙

I'm just wondering, would you have come to these realisations if you didn't do DMT in the first place? Because I think if you already had these realisations before first using then you wouldnt have done it. I used Changa through lockdown & I have to say my life changed in a major way for the highest good, integrated much of what I learnt through the experiences & now have no need for it. I think that's the purpose of psychedelics, to go within, change what needs to be changed & move forward in a different & more intentional way, they are a tool, a key to unlock parts of ourselves that we didnt know we needed to. They are not a recreational plaything. Just thought id add my bit 😁🧙‍♂️

Very well said, my friend. It's even written in a good book: be wary of those who lead you astray. As you mentioned, your shaman or teacher was more concerned with validating himself as a self-appointed shaman than with truly caring about you. Back in college, I experimented with acid and mushrooms and had my share of really bad trips. I received the same message: don’t mess with things you don’t understand. During one of those trips, a demon appeared to scare me away from shortcuts to knowledge. It became clear that the higher powers disapproved of my attempts to shortcut my way to understanding. As a result, I’m dealing with these bad trips. I turned heavily to alcohol to cope with the flashbacks and residual damage from the trips. It was through alcohol withdrawals and crossing the line into delirium tremens that I experienced a spiritual awakening. Synchronizations began occurring, and the same message you mentioned started echoing in my mind: everything you need is in reality. It took 25 years of heavy drinking to start listening to my spiritual self. By the way, if you’ve never experienced delirium tremens, thank God you haven’t. It is the most horrifying, realistic trip you could ever imagine. Just ask any alcoholic who has gone through this experience; it puts any bad trip to shame. You can find plenty of accounts of this on KZfaq. In a joking way, I would remind myself to take it slow. Ever since then, I’ve found peace within myself. I no longer need alcohol or drugs to gain knowledge. It's all here. We just need to be aware and study our surroundings. The universe is around us.

Loved this. You're super well spoken and i feel like you articulated your experience really well, i definitely got a lot out of it. Stoked for more videos!

Good shit! I totally agree. Thank you for the wisdom.

Awesome video brother!!!

Cheers on your exploring spirit! If done right, do the work, there is no "short cut" with dmt. Dmt is here and is part of reality, part of us. It's supposed to be here at this time for us to work with. For me, it is one tool in the tool bag. 16yrs of yoga/ breath training has been essential for me in this path

This is the best video about psychodelics I've seen, Amazing!

"You are eternal, you are infinite." Fuck yeah, brother. My greatest realisation, too.

Thanks for sharing man Appreciate it ❤

*DO MORE VIDEOSSSSSSS* REMEMBER TO KEEP YOUR HEAD ON STRAIGHT, YOUR VALUE COMES FROM YOUR INNOCENCE & INSIGHT

its absolutely beautiful coming to these realizations after all these years of using the medicine. i relate heavily to your path on this video. i was a floating head day in and day out. being rooted and grounded again feels incredible but the detour is most definitely necessary. long live the side quests 👾👽

You look like jesus

Taking psychedelics is like having a dream. An important dream once every now and then can be insightful and motivate growth. An important dream every night will crowd your headspace and distract you from the majority of what you’re learned. Slow and steady brother.

I’ve never taken DMT but, this is simply just a great video. Thank you

Thank you :) I appreciate you and this video :D

Everything you said resonated with me. I love you, kind stranger. Thank you for your help!

THANK YOU I WATCHED IT MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE MEDITATING its good to hear and understand again and again LOVE

I had two or three bad mushroom trips, and for me, the greatest thing about it is how they force you to mature faster. There's no way you'll see reality and people the same way after passing through such an experience

Hey brother. i really enjoyed this video, i have some xp with substances... but that was after years of being ''spiritual'' it seems that we have come to many similar conclusions :) That was cool and nice to hear from another. Thank you so much for posting this :D Have an amazing DAY!

You are a very enlightened person, this was a wonderful and insightful video. Much love.

Def resonated bro. I think it would be helpful if you shared more of your experiences. I’ve done many different psychedelics many different times and my last “medicine” of choice is was ketamine. I feel you what you said about discernment. Something was telling me it was ok to do it as often as I did but my body would take a day or two. Even more to recover. I’m almost a month off of it and staying strong. I’m clean off heroin and alcoholic. I have heavy trauma I’ve dealt with. I have memories of my soul team. I came here w 5 others. Anyway. I learned some things from your video and your sharing helped me out. And I’m sure you have much more to share. Thanks

loved how genuine this dude is. no bs just genuine experience. clearly not trying to inflate his ego or get recognition

Great insights! Thank you!

Thank you brother for sharing this insightful message. You have a great calm energy in you, and lot of inner wisdom. Keep on sharing your light to the world, this helped me in this moment to realize something that enforced my path. If you gained the wisdom to share this to the world, you did not fail, althought it can feel like that sometimes. Thank you 🙏💜

Good vibes brutha.👽 good first vid. ur a natural. 👏👏

Agreed! Thanks for sharing. Being present is so important. Things needing to prove themselves are not truth. Very deep realizations.

very nice.. for a first vid really clear calm and no bulshit.. well done.. i think a lot of people will benefit from your insights and honesty..

BRO all these lessons are when you have deeper understanding of islam, crazy how there is a perfectly preserved book stating this 1400 years ago we are indeed infinite and its so beautiful, the most beautiful part about all of this, is that allah ﷻ is all forgiving and most merciful. i am in awe dude, great video.

Thanks, that was nicely articulated and resonated with me. Just like the quote from Alan Watts that starts "If you get the message, hang up the phone".

Appreciate your subtle wisdom articulation brother🔱

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences! It'll be great to dive deeper into Lesson No. 2. - I also experienced that, but still can't believe in the eternity of the soul or consciousness since I explain it to myself like: Yeah for sure, the Ego dies, therefore it feels like real dying, but my brain is still intact so I'm not fully dead and my consciousness is still on. If one could understand what I mean. Like the pure fact of my ego dying and I'm still able to be aware, doesn't convince me because my body and my brain is still alive even when my ego dies.

What a lovely video. You have very enjoyable serene energy! Very good points you made, I have not yey tried dmt or heroic doses of shrooms/lsd and I can't wait to experience them, but I also already know that I don't necessarily need them! Hahah, life literally is a trip!

After having a bad trip off 🍄s and feeling disconnected from reality this really helped me get back on track with myself and made me realize that everything has its reasons good or bad!!!

Thank you for sharing this wisdom brother, profoundly beautiful and helpful. Keep on creating and sharing.. you will help many along your path

10:51 same thing happened to me, I lost my job at Walmart. I smoked dmt before my shift and quite my job. Posted embarrassing posts on social media embarrassed my girlfriend and broke up with her. Told my boss I smoked weed and everyone at work should too. I lost everything and was very embarrassed and ashamed of how I acted. My personality changed and I moved out of state, lived in an RV had no plumbing and went to a 24 hour gym to shower and use the bathroom. I worked at a job for my uncle that didn’t care about me. I hit rock bottom and moved back and I got a better job. Im happier to be with my family. I lost everything but I gained gratitude. I can go on about my sob story but I’m not sad. It feels like the weeds were pulled out of my garden. I gained more experience and know what it’s like being unwanted not having anyone. I realize why people cut the dead leaves off a tree, so more leaves can grow.

Dude I am a New Subscriber, I watch a ton of NDEs and I mean a TON anyways what you said is exactly the same as most if not all of the NDEs I watched. We are eternal and we can create lives with thought. I haven't tried DMT but I have eaten mushrooms. Anyways you are 100 % right on this! God bless you dude!

This medicine helped me tremendously in my early recovery of addiction. It intuitively led me forward in the right direction helping set a healthy new path of life. It's not a cure-all but accompanied with the right therapy and hard introspective work has done wonders for me. Forever grateful for figuring out if you can literally make and bake a cake you can access this medicine. Determination and intentions create manifestations! 🙏

Theres some great nuggets in this video and I related quite a bit to what you were saying. Esxpecially the detour being needed.

Thanks for sharing Broski!

good video man! thanks for sharing.

Tristan, thank you for being so honest about your experience and making this video. You seem like a very thoughtful and reflective person, I hope you continue to make videos. What you say about the Truth is spot on. Many blessings!

You are profoundly insightful and will go on to do great things. Thank you

wowie that was so impactful for me. your way of speaking your experiences is so beautiful. Thanks so much for the video

We are not alone. That is food for thought for me. Thanks brother...

Thanks for sharing your experience and your very well-spoken.

good video, ive learned many similar things through my experience taking acid as much as i could for months on end, including how much i didn’t actually need psychedelics. but i do feel personally they have benefited me on my mental health journey in irreversible ways and i wouldnt change that for anything

When I started my psychedelic journey around 8/9 years ago, I used to talk with my mother about my experience. She helped me to understand, that you can't fully take the conclusion in, without knowing how to get there just by your own. With this kind of short cut, you will always lack the wisdom about how to reach whatever point. The difficulties and effort you need to take in order to fully grow on any subject cant be avoided. As you mentioned, your consciousness cant keep track with the speed and amount of information you give it while tripping. You'll always need to give yourself time to rethink and evaluate your experience afterwards. If you learn to do so properly, eventually you wont feel the need anymore to get your groth out of psychedelics. It sure can help, but only up to a certain point. Like taking the elevator to the upper floor but then still needing to take the stairs/ladder to the roof top.

Your perspectives, pontifications and feelings expressed in this video, are something of true joy, beauty and grounded-ness. I truly love the way you have put together this entire mosaic of experiences. Thank you Tristan.❤ This has given me more clarity on similar things I've been dealing with.
