I have researched for hours on end about N,N-Dimethyltryptamine and they way it effects up when we are asleep.

Also people say that when they have a near death experience (i.e they have a car accident and they are Dead on Scene, but they come back alive) they experience extreme euphoria in a dream-like state. People who have taken Morphine in thier life compare it to this.
The only explanation is that huge amounts endorphins are being released as we die.

People say that when they have a NDE and they feel like they are in a peaceful ecstasy, in another world (basis of heaven maybe)

But it is actually; when the body determines that you're dying, it releases huge amounts of endorphins, that put you into a relaxed peaceful state (why most people look peaceful when they die) and the brain releases huge amounts of N,N-DMT to "fire" you into this dreamworld (AKA HEAVEN)

But, some people actually have extremely terrifying experiences, it's when the endorphins don't release properly, and you get put into what can be called a "bad trip".
(AKA HELL)

So the basis of the idea of "Heaven" and "Hell" could stem from people having Good and Bad NDE's, but...
