How To Induce A Near-Death Experience?

[fromthatshow]

So I've been trying to induce trance states/near-death experiences... whatever arises.
Last night I smoked pot, used one of those night masks to black everything out, put on some repetetive soft sounds on headphones, and took a nitrous oxide hit. I was in heaven for a while.

I'm trying to figure out ways to go deeper. To have a near-death experience. I'd like to try to find ways to do these things without drugs, but if I can get the drugs and it's not too dangerous that's cool too.

Any suggestions?

I hear astral travel is the near death expearience.Ive wondered is lucid dreaming the same thing.Ive had dejvou expiriences that I remember being part of lucid dreams.If astral travel and lucid dreaming are the same,I suspect they are but have read they are different things,you could try a dream mask.They detect REM then stimulate your brain.Ive never tryed one but would be interested to know if they work.; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hv4lUSfxlfo&eurl ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wz2CWUa9nuA

smoke some Salvia, not the strongest one, just a mild 5x should give you a buzz and funky dreams too

remember to sit somewhere comfortable when you smoke

No idea. Rumour has it the ancient egyptians used to do this to their political leaders tho via asphyxiation and then resuscitation...

wow, its an out there concept, so just be safe.

I remember taking Mushrooms 3 times in one day and the last dose was approximately 600 mushrooms, now I'm talking about the Liberty cap kind not the potent Cubensis kind, then on the point of absolute mental collapse I took a huge hit from a gravity bong and before I passed out I had a hallucination of pure blackness with this rainbow colored wave just humming on for ever in the infinite blackness, I could even hear it. Next thing I remember was my friends screaming at me that I was spilling the bottle of orange flavored soda I was holding all over the carpet.

It felt to me like the hum of the life when I thought about it later, slow strong and never going away. Not a near death experience but a pre unconscious one.

Never tired DMT, (except in the natural way of sleeping) though I hear very profound things happening on this substance, and from what I gather it is completely harmless to both body and mind. A very rare claim for any substance really. True or not I just don't know. Maybe a lot safer than risking a premature death, and again just be careful.

I would be all ears to hear what you experience.

Maybe after a long nights rest then stay up for 24 hours, to induce the state in between being asleep and awake. At least in that state you should be more open to more than just what the 5 senses are sensing.

Hmmm that does sound a heck of a lot safer :o

Meditate.

Sounds boring but it's much more useful.

...it sounds like you are trying to perform Hatha Yoga,where you better be careful,as you can shut your own organs down and have a death death
experience....get some training,under a very experienced operator.

...The other way,is submersion in water,drown,bring you back to life,repeat that so often,you get conditioned to leaving the body and walking amongst other realms...again,strongly advise you not to...

...trance,Alpha and theta states of mind,can be achieved through meditation
and the focusing of inner peace,takes practice and will fall asleep a few times,but brings no harm to you,unless you focus negatively,which defeats the purpose again.When it is time for you to reach certain realms or practice psychism,it will happen.Force it...I have no idea...what could happen.

Good luck and hope all goes well...regards J.

You Could Try Ketamine, be careful and look it up on the internet first find out all the facts, i`ve used it a few times and had some amazing results, you get a lot of deja vu type expeiriences, i had a few friends round about a week ago and we all had a few good lines, as they were telling me what they did that day i pointed out i was having deja vu, but something amazing happend, when i was telling them about it i actually got ahead of myself and started telling them things that they had done in the day before they told me,and told them thing they were going to say before they said them, i know it`s not a near death expierince but i thinks its another plane of consciousness, and it`s probably quite close as it shuts the body down but the consciousness keeps going, also when your in a ket hole time seems to stop or at least slow down, on a seperate occasion i was having experiences and visualls that seemed to last more about an hour, but when i asked my girlfriend who was straight she said it lasted about 10 minutes, i`m not saying it`s for everyone and if you do want to try it research it first

The problem with any drug-induced mystical state is that you need to keep re-using the drug - usually with increased dosages - to reach those same levels of insight again and again.

thank you guys :D

very true, which is why i only take it very occasionaly, but once you`ve reached your place of destination, the road is always easier to follow the next time, which ever way you travel:)

You don't need to have NDE to go deeper.

I haven't been able to get there without drugs.
Nitrous Oxide is the closest thing that's brought me there. I just haven't really read into the side affects. I know it kills brain cells, which I'm not too worried about, but I'm not sure what else it could do to me.

Smoking weed and doing nitrous is not taking you to heaven, dude.

Salvia will not take you to heaven either.

If you want to experience other dimensions you should immediately stop labeling the places you go. They are not what you think.

Not all hallucinations are experiences of other reams. Some are just hallucinations.

If you want a near death experience you could simply go on a roller coaster ride at Rhyl pleasure beach.

Smoke salvia ,Turn out the lights and close your eyes. Its hard to explain exactly what happens but you will leave yr body and become everything that exists, the world, the whole universe you just seem to melt into it and become it. In fact the universe feels like a tiny little part of you. Its scary as fuck the first few times but once you get used to it its fucking amazing.

Your body gets used to the salvia really quickly so best to leave about a week between each trip. Start with x5 untill you get used to it then move up. X20 seems to work the best. If you do it right it takes a week to get your head round what just happened to you.
