Can Psychedelics Unlock Hidden Languages for Humans?
In this episode of Reality Check, Ross speaks with Danny Goller, an independent researcher and non-profit owner who claims to have discovered a hidden subconscious language using lasers and the mind-altering drug, DMT. Goller describes seeing intricate patterns resembling ancient, structured scripts, which he says are not hallucinations but a universal code. He suggests that DMT might reveal the brain's true language and that the holographic principle could explain these observations despite skeptics.
