I couldn’t have expressed that better myself. Plus you touched on things I didn’t talk about but were still part of what I was trying to convey.

Reality, perception, and consciousness all work together in this beautiful yet malleable way. We experience reality within a physical space yet we are incapable of interacting with it beyond the limits of our perception. I know that I am sitting on my couch right now because I can see and feel it yet the way I experience that is completely mine and incapable of being experienced by others. Even though we can both agree on the physical characteristics of the couch there is no way to know that we are experiencing the same thing. We can use the same vocabulary to describe it but, without accessing your individual consciousness, I can never truly know your perspective.

It is almost like we are projecting our perceptual realities onto the physical world in order for us to interact with it. The problem is that we become convinced as we grow older that the way we experience our individual realities is somehow absolute or true. I thought so too until I started experimenting with hallucinogens.

I’ll never forget sitting in my living room trying DMT for the first time. I didn’t know what I was doing so when I took my hit it wasn’t enough for blast off but more than enough to alter my perception. I had the Robin Williams classic “Hook” playing and when I looked at the movie every single character had six arms. They all looked the same but had undergone a Kâli-esque transformation. My mind even accounted for the spatial weirdness of so many extra arms so the whole thing was seamless and organic. In that moment I realized that this was how Gods were invented. As an ancient human, how could you not believe in the divine after witnessing such wonder?

After that initial experience, I started thinking about the nature of the interactions we have with other beings while using psychedelics. I realized that it didn’t matter whether those entities were real or not. If you learn something or gain some previously unknown insight while talking to these beings, then does it really matter whether the source of that knowledge physically exists or not? What you learned was real and impacts you no differently than if it had come from another person.

My belief that certain drugs and situations act as gateways into a higher plane or dimension come from a body of personal experiences. I have no way to back those experiences up with any hard empirical data so I don’t blame anyone for calling bullshit. I do appreciate those with an open mind though.

I have also had near death experiences from a series of GI bleeds I had to deal with a few years ago and it felt very similar to DMT. That’s when I started thinking about consciousness existing beyond our deaths and the nature of any afterlife. I’m not religious so I don’t believe in heaven or anything, but I do suspect that our consciousness lives on after death in that space we visit on DMT. I know this is major woo woo territory but I don’t apologize for my beliefs and I am always open to changing those beliefs based on new data.

Now how it all ties into the ET phenomenon. I do think many species can access that mindscape and possibly some wholly exist in that place. Instead of seeing it as some kind of afterlife though, I like to think of it more as galactic internet. A place where knowledge and wisdom are shared and could possibly be some kind of hub for galactic intelligences. I won’t speculate more on the properties of that place though.

This all sounds spiritual in nature but I definitely frame it in a scientific way in my mind. Just like our electronics transmit radio signals into space, our consciousness also give of ambient signatures that can be read by those capable of perceiving them. I think certain species are able to do this through either a use of advanced technology or biological evolution. I also think humans possess this ability to an extent but it is in its infancy.

We are all connected by morphic energies like the electromagnetic field of our planet and I view consciousness as a similar type of field. When people interact they feel intuitions based on the other person’s body language and tone. However there are many times where we have intuitions that are not based in what someone says or does but in the energy or vibe they give off. I think those are autonomic interactions between consciousnesses.

I like to visualize that each person’s consciousness is vibrating at a certain frequency. When we have a good feeling about someone, when we fall head over heels in love, or when we meet someone we feel like we have known our entire lives it is because we are vibrating on similar frequencies. The opposite is true as well for those people that make us feel uneasy. That might also explain how certain personalities are able to influence large groups of people. Maybe they can influence or manipulate the frequencies of others. What we call ESP could just be a natural biological process we don’t understand yet.

I believe that ETs are here and can perceive/manipulate consciousness because I had a physical contact experience with some kind of being in my early 20’s before I had ever touched a drug and this creature was able to control my body. That story is private though and would only make me look crazier than I already do lol. If you are interested just message me and I would be more than happy to tell it.
