“An autonomous entity can be defined as the experience of perceived contact with a hallucinatory being that appears to be sentience and autonomous in its behavior. And while most famously associated with dimethyltryptamine, it is a relatively common experience at heavy dosages of a wide variety of psychedelic compounds, particularly those which are more prone to inducing hallucinatory states, such as ayahuasca, psilocybin, and mescaline.”
“Autonomous entities and internal hallucinations in general are usually comprised from condensed psychedelic geometry. This is in a manner which can give them an incredibly complex, incomprehensible and otherworldly aesthetic. But as for the specific forms in which they present themselves, while they can include literally anything, certain archetypes are definitely present and commonly include: Humans. Aliens. Elves. Animals. Giant spheres. Insectoids. Beings of light. Plants. Cartoons. Robotic machines. Gods and demigods. Biomechanical intelligences. Anthropomorphic beings. Jesters. Demons. Indescribable monstrosities. Spirits. Angels. Shamans. Fantastical or mythological beasts. Abstract geometric forms. And many, many more.”
“During their apparition, autonomous entities will frequently be presented as the inhabitants of a perceived independent reality, which is often subjectively interpreted as a different dimension or plane of existence. These inhabited hallucinatory realms can include anything, but common archetypes often include cities, temples, rooms, circuses, caverns, natural landscapes, and abstract geometric structures.”
“And while they most commonly appear alone within these spaces, they can also often be within small or large groups alongside of other entities, which may take similar or completely different physical forms of their own. Now as for their response to the Tripper, some entities do not seem to be aware of a person’s presence, but many others are often precognizant of a person’s appearance into their supposed realm, and usually choose to interact with them in various ways. For example, they will often display behaviors such as showing a person around the realm that they inhabit, presenting them with objects, holding spontaneous celebrations of their arrival, merging into and out of the person’s body or consciousness, engaging them in conversation, and attempting to impart knowledge of various kinds.”
“Overall, the general appearance, personality, and behavior of an autonomous entity often correlates with the psychological state of the person experiencing it.”
