A friend sent me this today and it proved to be one of the most interesting things i've read about in like 6 months.
It's hard to explain it. Just begin reading, it'll either spark something in you and you wont blink until the end, or you'll get a quarter way through, laugh, and close it. It'll be interpreted in a range of different ways depending on who you are, but i'm absolutely certain that there will be a select few out there who will get something from this.

I met god the other day.
I know what you’re thinking. How the hell did you know it was god?
Well, I’ll explain as we go along, but basically he convinced me by having all, and I do mean ALL, the answers. Every question I flung at him he batted back with a plausible and satisfactory answer. In the end, it was easier to accept that he was god than otherwise.
Which is odd, because I’m still an atheist and we even agree on that!

Clip: DMT - The Spirit Molecule
This is easily the most interesting documentary i've seen in 2010.
If you have a curiosity of psychedelics and their affect/role in the world, then this is a must see.
Personally, i'd heard of DMT before and became curious to learn more about it, to see whether it was something i wanted to eventually experience or not (always research a psychedelic before trying it!). So this documentary was particularly interesting for me. But whether you've heard of DMT or not, as long as you've got an open mind, totally give this doco a viewing! For this will definitely challenge your understanding of reality and attempt to open your eyes & mind (or, for some, it may tell you what you already know! ;) ). Either way, I believe this is an important documentary for people to see atleast once.
It's not a quick viewing (5 parts of 14 or so minute vids), but it's worth it. I recommend chucking youtube on full-screen and sitting back and getting comfortable...
Part 2
Part 3
Part 4
Part 5
It's particularly interesting when they interview the volunteers who took DMT and told of their experiences, but my favourite quote/thought came from some writer of the name Graham Hancock:
"Our society values 'alert problem-solving' consciousness, And it de-values all other states of consciousness. Any kind of consciousness that is not related to the production or consumption of material goods is stigmatized in our society today.
Of course, we accept drunkenness. We allow people some brief respite from the material grind.
A society that subscribes to that model is a society that is going to condemn states of consciousness that have nothing to do with the alert problem-solving mentality. And if you go back to 1960s when there was a tremendous upsurge of exploration of psychedelics, I would say that the huge backlash that followed that had to do with a fear of the part of the powers that be, that if enough people went into those realms of those experiences then the very fabric of the society we have today would be picked apart, and most importantly, those in power at the top would not be in power at the top anymore."

Book Recommendation: The Holographic Universe
'The Holographic Universe' is the book i'm reading right now. It's seriously mind blowing, aswell as mind opening.
The Holographic Universe is a "must read" for anyone with an open, inquiring mind and a curiosity about the cosmos in which we reside. You are likely to find the material presented here to be nothing short of astounding. The ramifications for humanity are staggering as this book seriously challenges the basis for our cultural view of reality: materialism. After reading The Holographic Universe, you will understand why so many people are starting to say that a paradigm shift in our science and culture is at hand.
