How exactly do you achieve 'ego death'
#23921989 - 12/13/16 09:05 AM (7 years, 1 month ago) |

Okay.. I like to consider myself a seasoned psychonaut.. Been doing mushrooms for half my life (current age 30) with my standard dose being 7 grams, and highest dose being 14 grams.. I have smoked DMT on at least 300 occasions in my life with the average dose being two tokes, with 4 tokes being the most I have managed.. Not a whole lot of experince with LSD as trying to find it around here is like trying to find a unicorn but my largest dose is 4 hits..
Out of the thousands of psychedelic experiences I have had over the years, I have never experienced an ego death, or if I have, I was completely unaware.. A couple questions..
1) How exactly would YOU define ego death, and what does it entail?
2) Are there things you can do to make yourself more mentally susceptible to experiencing ego death?
Maybe it's just that my ego is too big to kill

lack of 'self', when the term 'I' cannot be understood anymore. when you have no knowledge of what you were before there was no 'I'. the sense that you are part of the 'whole', but nothing else but it. you are the whole.
those are the best words i could put it up onto. I had some trips that were like that but I really don't know if that is really ego death, just seems like it.

1. Ego death is when you are so obliterated you no longer feel a sense of self anymore, or in some cases you just feel like you've died or are dying and you accept this in a positive manner. You come out of it relieved, thankful, and rebalanced. If you're looking for a more intense experience in order to obtain a more proper ego death, I would suggest eating more shrooms obviously, and supplementing with a few grams of Syrian rue.
2. Setting is everything when tripping. It is different for everyone, a proper setting for an advanced user could just be having good friends around. I can do a lot of things when tripping now that I'm experienced, like river tubing and movies.
Some of my friends like to trip in silence or alone so they can go into deep trances of self discovery. I think these particular settings would be more in line with what you're trying to achieve. I had to find a nice quiet back room for my ayahuasca trip.

I never "tried" to get ego death it just happened.
To me ego death is basically forgetting who and what you are and ime I lost the ability to have thoughts because me and my mind were no longer present, I was basically just pure awareness.

I always cease to exist as a body and completely detach. Its not the same as an oobe because I don't have a specific focal point. I would immediately become the whole room then the town and eventually all of everything until I wasn't anymore and nothing existed then it would repeat or i would manipulate it somehow in the trip

1) Ego death is when you don't only forget who you are specifically, but you also stop distinguishing between phenomenon and experience, between your body and the grass, your ind and the sun, your self and the person next to you, and are living completely in the moment as pure undefined and undivided experience. 2) Take mushrooms
I've only had what I consider ego death once, strangely on about 2.5 g of mushrooms in lemon while 4g never did it to me Melted in the grass for about half an hour, at the peak of it i literally forgot i was a different person than the friends lying next to me, as well as the plants around and the ground below, like we were all one huge being that included at least the globe. In a lot of ways I've kinda been chasing that feeling for the last 3 years without complete success

7 grams of mushrooms didn't give you ego death?
Not that I'm recomending it but it seems like every time I achieved full ego death ( complete loss of who I was or what I'm doing, even thoughts become meaningless because they have no relevance to anything) I was always smoking cannabis as well.
A good bong and decent weed goes a long way on a psychedelic trip IMO.
I don't even smoke on my trips anymore until the comedown because anything before the peak will floor me.

I had a pretty ego suppressing or humbling experience while almost completely sober, still slightly high from smoking hash hours before but I was just waiting for the bus staring up at the stars trying to contemplate how much space was between each star so I could add them all up and be hit with the reality of it all at once and I just pictured a massive ocean between each one which really really made me feel so humbled and when I added them all up my mind was literally blown and I felt so incredibly small. Obviously the spaces between stars are much much bigger than that but allowing my mind to use something that it can vaguely comprehend like the size of the ocean it allowed me to have a more realistic view of how massive it all was than before.

I hear you Space Coast. I think "ego death" is a term that a lot of people have used to give context to experiences that are deeply personal and probably experienced differently by everyone. The way "ego" is used in terms of "ego death" is really a Freudian concept and that in itself is problematic.
But I think that when someone goes really deep into the psychedelic experience words cease to function in the same way (or even function at all), your mind's defenses and deeply embedded patterns (i.e. the foundations of your worldview) are temporarily stripped away, and there you are... the real you, naked and exposed, so to speak. To me that is ego death... or so I've heard. Good luck!

1. i'd define ego death as a state of being completely independent from all physical stimuli, past, present, and future events, and your sense of self. your thoughts begin to manifest independently from the shadow of your experiences and preconceived notions about how you perceive this existence, allowing for less creative resistance and more potential for profound and enlightening revelations, imo.
2. certain mindful people can achieve a similar state of "ego death" through sober concentration. although your dose definitely matters, your set and setting are the key to dissolution from reality. i'd try meditation, controlled breathing, minimal external stimuli (silent darkness perhaps), and patience. it's not just some level of a conventional experience you'll be stepping into, it's an abstract and, honestly, sometimes frightening state of being. just be careful and tread lightly!

The way i have achieved EGO dissolution the last 5-6 trips is by taking 5g, and after about 90-120 minutes (at the point when i start to feel comfortable and "brave") i ingest usually 13g.
Another usual dose is i start with 8g and then re-dose with 13g. What happens most of the time after i ingest the second dose, is about 30-60 min into the dose i can't figure out if i'm sitting or standing, then it gets more and more confusing to the point that i don't know if im real or not, and about 75% of the time i end up with Christ Consciousness for about 30 min. One time i sort of had Buddha consciousness cause i mostly felt like i saw the world trough Buddhas eyes, but usually it's Jesus.
I think that Jesus and Buddha had total EGO dissolutions at some point and their teachings originate from that state of consciousness. When it happens to you YOU CAN NOT mistake it for anything else really.
For me this is complete EGO dissolution, and always right before the BLISS i am in deep despair and anxiety EVERY time. Only when i accept my faith (that i have overdosed and i am going to die physically or forever be mentally damaged) only after accepting this fact, the EGO dissolves.

Holy fuck that sounds amazing! I've had similar religious experiences after double dosing in the middle of my trip. You just reaffirmed my desire to do so again. Thanks for being awesome

To me, "ego" death starts with seeing the Inner Light of the Entheogen.
Next is seeing that the Entheogen is a Being - a Teacher.
Finally is the understanding and belief that this Being is the God of all the "religions".
At that point, your old "self" has died.
"Let your thoughts be on heavenly things, not on the things that are on the earth, because you have died, and now the life you lead is hidden with Christ in God." Colossians, 3,2 (St. Paul)

I define 'Ego death' as ID death in reference to the Freudian theory it's based on.
With the ID being the primitive and instinctive component of personality i.e. gut instinct, it's no surprise that ID is related to the fight or flight response.
Since psychedelics like magic mushrooms are anxiolytic(effect nervous system) and sympathomimetic(acts on sympathetic nervous system) they can act to stimulate and influence the sympathetic nervous system which is responsible for governing the fight or flight response.

To me ID death entails a temporary inhibition/numbing of the fight or flight response with sympathomimetic psychedelics.
Alphablockers are sympatholytic drugs that act in a similar way by inhibiting the sympathetic nervous system and hence the fight or flight response.

Ive had numerous experiences where I was tripping so hard I felt like I ceased to exist, like the consciousness that made me Fennario was gone and something else more raw was in its place, like I was one with the visuals I was having, kind of hard to explain, but one time I was aware I was this raw bit of energy, but that something that I was, was not the same something that I am now sitting here typing this, it was like I had evolved into some other form for a period of time, learned a lesson, then brought that lesson back into the form I know as Fennario, does that makes sense? It was almost as if I wouldn't have been able to have been taught the lesson if I had been the normal Fennario, I had to be that raw bit of energy in order to process the information which was being shown to me, because the ego attached with my normal earth bound Fennario consciousness, would not have been able to process that information, I don't know, this sounds really weird.
I do know this, ego death changed my life, gave me the will to overcome addiction, gave me the will to think better about myself and the world around me, so I think there's something to it.

Drug science is probably a good answer, especially seeing as how psychedelics like magic mushrooms work to inhibit the fight or flight response.

In my experiences it's when your identity that you label as your ego dissolves away and things like death and not existing any longer give no fear or consequence based reactions.

I haven't feared death in many years, in fact I have tried to talk with a couple of my family members about the type of thinking which helps me maintain this way of thinking day in and day out. I feel like many people fear death, fear aging, but for myself I attribute my lack of fear for these things with having consumed psychs from a young age very frequently.

Pretty sure Ego death is what I experience on acid sometimes where everything starts racing so fast and eventually your mind dissolves and no longer contains thought only awareness you are no longer sure of what you are or if you have a body anymore to me it felt like someone scrambling my brain and becoming a mental vegetable only able to view but not process what is happening. It scared the shit out of me.
Don't really like acid to be honest it lacks the euphoria of psilocybin and doesn't feel natural nor did it make me feel connected the way shrooms do.

You don't label your own identity, you simply have three parts that make up your personality, as described in Sigmund Freud's Theory of the Tripartite Personality.
The simplest way to interpret Freud's model of the human experience is as such.
- Super Ego is your moral judgement/Neocortex.
- The Ego is the emotions and feelings of your heart/Cardiac.
- The ID is your instinctive gut feelings/Fight or flight response.

To me ego death is when u destroy your own sense of self. Your name and identity become meaningless and u are juat thought or awareness.
In ego dissolution there is no thoughts of "im tripping" its only "i am the trip now". U become the trip itself.
Its called ego death cause it feels like u are actually dying. It can be quite scary if u are not ready.
Its poasible u either have a very strong ego, very strong tolerance or mentally cannot go there.

I hate the term ego death, but what people say is ego death is what I have experienced so I just go with it. even on low doses I start to feel like my life is an illusion and I don't actually exist as a person. ON hihg doses I become convinced that I am disconnected from my regular life and am not a real person anymore. Can be scary.

Psychedelics don't cause ego death because in Freudian terms the ego is related to the cardiac system and psychedelics work to effect the sympathetic nervous system which is responsible for digestion and the fight or flight response which is the instinctive part of our personality or the ID as described in Sigmund Freud's theory of a Tripartite Personality on which the whole 'Ego' idea is based.

Its called Ego Death because it removes our sense of self, our sense of individuality, the Ego.
The Ego says "I am". But in Ego Death, there is no "I" or "Me" but instead just "Am". So its not "I am dead" instead its just "dead", or what it feels like to die.
It has everything to do with how you view yourself.
I prefer the term Ego Dissolution, since its the proper term and Ego doesnt actually die, its simply temporary removed.

The only reason any experience while using psychedelics like magic mushrooms would simulate death is because thev temporarily inhibit the sympathetic nervous system(fight or flight response) with anxiolytic and sympathomimetic properties like those of psilocybin.
Sympathetic nervous system or ID dissolution is the only explanation that makes anatomical sense.

How to?
You take a whole lot more psychedelics than you are comfortable with. That is indeed how it happens and it is not safe for a great many people to be doing that. Many will become violent even. Not everybody, but you could probably pick them out if you know your people and your psychedelics.
It is best to take it slow and work with the whole idea of knowing your psychedelics, while avoiding the baseness of attributing the "level" of your trip to words people just play around with. Ego-death has no real meaning anymore. The whole idea has been kind of destroyed.
You can try to get there with really high doses and might approach some form of this "ego-death", on doses you have managed to become comfortable with, ie high doses. Doses that are high for you.
Just an off the cuff few words about it. You can probably overdose yourself anytime. Nobody understands what the fuss is about. You will know it when you find it and when you see how to exist there for a small time you will figure out what it means to stay there for a great while.

For shrooms you need to eat something like 2kg dry at once to OD.
Even on 2g there can be an experience of ID dissolution.

5-7 dried grams if you haven't dosed in a while is enough for most people to have a full on out of body psychedelic experience where nothing in your vision remains of this realm all you see are fractals both with eyes open and closed and can feel very similar to DMT and give the user the so called sensation of " ego death" ...since it is in essence just orally active DMT, 4-PO-DMT to be precise. It would only make sense since regular DMT( NN-DMT) provides users quite often with what they call ego death that the same be true for shrooms.
I just think people are so overwhelmed with what occurs at the higher does of mush and DMT that they don't know what to call it...quite often if you try and get someone to describe to you what their DMT experience was like they will tell you there really aren't words to describe it. Joe Rogan talks about this all the time words just do not do the experience justice. It very much does feel initially though with a breakthrough dose that you are dying( or what you perceive it would feel like to die since with no frame of reference you wouldn't know
The near death experience and full psychedelic experience are so similar in their stories that you really do start to think they may be one of the same....it's just with one you are able to come back and tell the tale....somewhat.
Shit...all this talk got me wanting to load up the GVG with some spice.

Keep working with the DMT if this is something you want to experience. DMT FORCED ego death upon me, in a good way, sorta. Best experience of my life. Also the worst.

The term ego death suggests a transpersonal experience, and probably would not be experienced from the sperspective of the ego, as such.
It is possible that in states of interconnectedness, such as can be had on psychedelics or in various sorts of trances arising from meditation, hypnosis, or other methods, the question of an individual existence as separate from the interconnected experience might cease to be a relevant concern.
That aside, most people, who I have met, who have claimed to have achieved such a thing seemed to be prone to intense egotism.
Some people just use ego death as a way of bypassing their better judgement and removing themselves from interconnectedness.
It is probably just best to try to find a way to be in a state of harmony and balance with the universe. Then continue to follow that way unimpeeded.
Love.
