By the way, this research on DMT experiences could certainly be a partial  for 
the study of dreams.  Notice, however, that with the DMT, I guess, the "dream" 
would be going on in real time?  So we could see the degree to which the 
dreamer behaved consistently with the dream, as he is relating it.

Taking (inhaling) DMT seems to induce a belief in "higher spirits" e.g. "God."

Since human brains naturally produce DMT (some controversy about this 
assertion); that is why all human cultures — historic and prehistoric — 
incorporate beliefs in the supernatural.
