DMT is naturally produced in the pineal gland of the brain, which is also found in substances like ayahuasca. When a person dies, it is believed that the body releases DMT among other chemicals. While there is a concept that tripping on DMT is similar to the experience of dying, it is mentioned that the sensory inputs during a trip and at the moment of death are different due to the shutdown of senses during the dying process. Thus, the experiences are not directly comparable as they do not function in the same manner.
