A New Theory Says DMT Entities Might Be Real, and Proposes How to Test It

Theory Briefing

  • About 45% of DMT users report meeting vivid, autonomous entities — a rate too consistent to dismiss as random hallucination.
  • The new theory posits these entities exist in a parallel layer of reality, accessible only when normal perception is chemically suppressed.
  • Researchers propose a coordination test: if two DMT users independently describe the same entity details, the reality hypothesis gains hard evidence.
