In a similar fashion, shamans take Ayahuasca, in order to meet with the ancestors during an 'altered state of conciousness'. Ayahuasca produces DMT in the brain - a chemical which is naturally produced in the brain but in minute quantities in normal circumstances.

I do take your point, and accept all that.
Though logic takes over, and tells me there isn't really a nowty owd git sat in the corner of my sitting room.
These hallucinations happen in some people with Parkinson's pre-diagnosis, when there's no drug interference. They did with me.
Another common hallucination is rats/scurrying animals.
I see them very life like rats, but the ones I see have long, finger like claws. Odd.
It does suprise me, logic, being an arty-farty old romantic.
But seeing as I don't believe there's any life after death, I'm going to need to see for myself, something spectacularly unexplainable, to believe it.
