“I Let Scientists Inject DMT Into My Vein" - Batuhan Bintas EP 63

In this episode, we sit down with Batuhan Bintas - one of the participants in the groundbreaking DMT studies at Imperial College London.Batuhan’s journey sits at the intersection of technology, consciousness, and psychedelics. Raised in Turkey with Sufi spiritual influences, his early curiosity about hidden dimensions of reality later evolved into a deep exploration of psychedelics, neuroscience, and emerging technologies.At just 23 years old, Batuhan participated in Imperial College London’s DMT research trials, where scientists administered intravenous DMT while monitoring brain activity. The experience profoundly reshaped his worldview, influencing his understanding of consciousness, spirituality, and the nature of reality.In this conversation, we explore the nature of psychedelic experiences, encounters with non-ordinary realms, the science behind DMT research, and the deeper philosophical question many listeners care about most: what does it mean to understand ourselves?Topics Discussed• Batuhan’s participation in the Imperial College London DMT trials• What happens during a clinical psychedelic study• The concept of the “curtain of perception”• Encounters with entities in the DMT realm• Similar psychedelic experiences across cultures• Psychedelics and religious symbolism• How psychedelic experiences can reshape personal values• The relationship between technology, consciousness, and human evolution• Whether profound spiritual states require psychedelics📌 More Information about Batuhan:https://www.instagram.com/batuhanbintas/📌If this episode resonated with you, subscribe to the Triangle Theory newsletter for more insights on self-awareness, psychology, and human growth:https://tr.ee/KM1Gr5S8lG📌If you enjoyed this episode, you can support us by buying us a coffee! :)https://tr.ee/maaifQETDlTimestamps0:00 - Intro01:46 - Mind/Body/Heart ReflectionEPISODE STARTS11:22 - Batuhan’s Imperial College DMT Study16:44 - The DMT Injection Experience Begins18:39 - Meeting God & Experiencing Unconditional Love22:12 - Integrating the DMT Experience24:01 - Ancient Civilisations & Shared Psychedelic Patterns27:27 - Is Consciousness Produced by the Brain?38:01 - Why Would God Hide the Truth?47:17 - Reincarnation & Childhood Near-Death Experiences58:41 - DMT Entities: Mantis Beings, Machine Elves & Hierarchies1:09:24 - Ayahuasca Stories & Mystical Guidance1:19:12 - Dark Psychedelic Experiences & “Purgatory”1:21:36 - Why Batuhan Stopped Using DMT1:28:46 - Future DMT Research & Batuhan’s Work----------------------------You can also support us at:Subscribe to our Newsletter: https://3-minute-theory.beehiiv.com/subscribeInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/triangle.theory_/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@triangle.theorySpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/50RW93YVyR3YgEIuNdKIAZ?si=d77d72433a074a34Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/triangle-theory/id1769204627Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TriangleTheorypodPlayer FM: https://player.fm/series/triangle-theoryListen Notes: https://lnns.co/bdxlCwfrYN8Podchaser: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/triangle-theory-5790906LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/triangle-theory-podcast/
