Watch: DMT: The Spirit Molecule 2010 123movies, Full Movie Online – The Spirit Molecule investigates dimethyltryptamine (DMT), an endogenous psychoactive compound, which exists in humans and numerous species of plants and animals. The documentary traces Dr. Rick Strassman’s government-sanctioned, human DMT research and its many trials, tribulations, and inconceivable realizations. A closer examination of DMT’s effects through the lens of two traditionally opposed concepts, science and spirituality, The Spirit Molecule explores the connections between cutting-edge neuroscience, quantum physics, and human spirituality. Strassman’s research, and the experiences of the human test subjects before, during, and after the intense clinical trials, raises many intriguing questions. A variety of experts voice their unique thoughts and experiences with DMT within their respective fields. As Strassman’s story unfolds, the contributors weigh in on his remarkable theories, including the synthesis of DMT in our brain’s pineal gland, its link to near-death & alien-abduction experiences, the history/future of psychedelics, and the uncanny likeness to ancient religious texts describing prophets with DMT-like experiences. Additionally, the intriguing similarities to the “many-worlds” interpretation of quantum mechanics lead to other fascinating discoveries. The experts offer a comprehensive collection of information, opinions, and speculation to help understand the nature of the DMT experience, and its role in human culture and the life force of our planet. Due to the profound nature, and visual phantasmagoria, of the DMT experience, the visual landscape of the film features stunning visualizations from Scott Draves (Electric Sheep), as well as a cutting-edge motion graphics, which demonstrate DMT’s conceptual link to human evolution, construction of the universe, advanced neuroscience, and other alluring theories. Finally, stylized scenes reminiscent of Rod Sterling’s famous Twilight Zone bookends, Joe Rogan (actor/comedian) serves as tour guide, helping navigate the expansive realms of Strassman’s DMT universe. Dimethyltryptamine: a simple molecule with enormous implications. The Spirit Molecule’s subtle combination of science, spirituality, and philosophy results in an abundance of incredible ideas and theories that could alter the way we understand the universe and our relationship to it..
Plot: THE SPIRIT MOLECULE weaves an account of Dr. Rick Strassman’s groundbreaking DMT research through a multifaceted approach to this intriguing hallucinogen found in the human brain and hundreds of plants, including the sacred Amazonian brew, ayahuasca. Utilizing interviews with a variety of experts to explain their thoughts and experiences with DMT, and ayahuasca, within their respective fields, and discussions with Strassman’s research volunteers, brings to life the awesome effects of this compound, and introduces us to far-reaching theories regarding its role in human consciousness.

Spreads, rather than dispels ignorance around DMT
This documentary is yet again another example why one of the biggest obstacles to dispelling societal ignorance around psychotropics is often the users themselves. If you’re looking for scientific explanations around the properties, effects, and potential side-effects around DMT, look no further. Instead you’ll discover the film begins to devolve into various sweeping statements ranging from the pseudo-scientific to the completely unscientific ramblings of mystics.The film begins to explore the idea that we can use psychotropics –DMT in particular– for the sake of exploring and discovering aspects of reality that might not be available to us in ordinary perception. Fair enough, as long as we keep in mind what we’re “discovering” are interesting chemically induced perceptions, and not, as many of the film’s most wildly metaphysical poetic-waxing statements claim, real parts of the universe “out there” that are hidden from us with the “ball and chain” of reason and scientific confirmation.
The way that it presents these musings is through interviews of various psychologists, “writers”, mystics, and “shamans” interspersed between what seems to be winamp animations and art taken from Alex Grey. Sure, okay, it’s a film about DMT. But it’s hardly inventive compared to the master Gaspar Noe film Enter the Void where the drug is featured heavily.
People’s perception of psychotropics is an erasing of reason for New Age tarot-card reading “channeling” of other dimensions by hippies. It’s an unfortunate misperception, one that this film surely would confirm even to the open minded. In the end it adds to the list of the pseudo-scientific New Age “what the bleep” nonsense that attempts to pass off as credible. Instead of dispelling the ignorance, it reflects this society’s scientific illiteracy in an unfortunate postmodern age where drug induced fast food religious experiences pass as empirical research. But you know, as the postmodernists will tell me, “well, that’s like…your opinion…man…”
Hard to take seriously due to the editing
It seemed like this was filmed almost for children, the cheesy graphics, Joe Rogan segues where he’s in a lab with chemicals set to grainy black and white, what was the age group they were trying to cater too?I have such a problem with the way drug culture is shown. Here we have a bunch of old and intelligent people talking about DMT with their pool of knowledge and experience on the subject matter… and while they’re talking there’s this background ~*trippy music*~ and quick cuts to graphics and the generic drug fueled imagery. This would have worked with Alex Grey’s segment as he’s an artist who specializes in creating art much like the transitions, but when it’s filming old doctors talking about it, it’s just embarrassing.
Very informative, shame about the editing.
