| | | Strassman''s research connects DMT with the pineal gland, considered by Hindus to be the site of the seventh chakra and by Rene Descartes to be the seat of the soul. "DMT: The Spirit Molecule" makes the bold case that DMT, naturally released by the pineal gland, facilitates the soul''s movement in and out of the body and is an integral part of the birth and death experiences. Annotation: If the body has a soul and a spirit, then where is it located? This is the question on author Rick Strassman's mind as he recounts his studies of the powerful hallucinogenic known as DMT. Strassman suggests that DMT, a chemical found in the pineal gland (also believed to be the location of the sixth chakra according to Hinduism), may be the key to understanding the notion of the soul and related therapeutic possibilities for the mind and body. In controlled scientific studies over a five-year period, sixty individuals took DMT and consistently related near-death experiences, powerful personal transformations, and profound enlightenment.
