CHAPTER

What's the Base Line Rate of Entity Experiences?

Survey can in no way tell us how common entity encounter experiences are. It can only say, ok, if you've had an entity counter xperience, this is what the landscape looks like. But there's still value in delving in just to describe the landscape of these stories when they do happen. Although again, i think we get the dose high enough, it's typically not oring.

People say,

vefoa a good to know. So in this tis, in this a survey, was it only of people who had had om entity experiences, or was it of people whether or not they'd had an experience, right?
Speaker 1
So that's a great question, and relates to kine of my discussion about the breath work and psychodelicum current surveys, this was only amongst people reporting an entity experience? So this um can in no way tell us how common entity encounter experiences are. It can only say, ok, if you've had an entity counter xperience, this is what the landscape looks like. And that can be very valuable, just like in survey work i've done where o saying, if you've overcome an addiction because of a cychular experience, you dont complete the survey. And that's not telling us anything about how likely it is, at a population base line level, of having that effect. But there's still value in delving in just to describe the landscape of these stories when they do happen. So, you kno one could do another survey of of looking at more of that base line rate, of saying you kno, of trying to more broadly look at people who have gotten d m t. But there's n eno, there's no such thing as a perfect experiment, because you might be more inclined to fall out a survey if you've had something more interesting, having, like anany encounter experience, than if you had a more boring experience. Although again, i think we get the dose high enough, it's typically not oring. That's tatis, magiscrator of d m t experiences, right? Super chill.
