Entering a trance may seem difficult and even scary to some people the first time, but it's really the most natural thing in the world.
Humans are hard wired for trance. Western culture is the only culture that rejects trance as a valid form of spiritual expression. This may be why so many people seek unhealthy ecstatic experiences and become addicted to drugs, alcohol, sex and pornography and thrill seeking. All of these fulfill similar needs as trance as all produce an ecstatic state, but they may have harmful affects on the body or on the person's life and relationships. There are several ways to enter a trance or ecstatic state. Not to worry, however, there are many other safe methods of entering trance. Drowning out environmental noises with some sort of repetitive sound is much more affective than eliminating them. Your body is also sending messages to the brain. Was Psychedelic Guru Terence McKenna Goofing About 2012 Prophecy? Rational Scientific American readers surely scoff at claims—based on ancient Mayan calendars and other esoterica—that life as we know it will end this December, especially now that NASA experts have “crushed” the prophecy.
But many folks out there are reportedly worried. Perhaps I can allay their anxieties by relating my encounter with a prominent popularizer of the 2012-doomsday meme, psychedelic guru Terence McKenna. In his books and lectures, McKenna extolled psychedelic drugs as a spiritual path superior to that of any mainstream religion.
His book The Food of the Gods (Bantam 1992) was a rigorous argument—complete with footnotes and bibliography—that mind-expanding plants and fungi catalyzed the transformation of our brutish ancestors into cultured modern humans.

Psychedelic trance (also known as "Psytrance" or "Goa trance") is a form of electronic dance music that has been parting hippies from their hard-bartered cash since the early 1990s.
It combines a pattern of repetitive beats and melodies with a lot of weird noises, which supposedly lull the listener into a trance-like state. When combined with various recreational drugs, visual and aural hallucinations that appear to follow the same pattern as the music can supposedly be experienced. Generally, this results in the listeners either staring vacantly into space, or dancing like a drunk elephant wearing shoes that are too tight for their elephant feet. (Hey, atleast it's not dubstep.) It was born on the beaches of Goa, India, by expatriate hippies (such as Goa Gil), who combined the sounds of late-60s and 70s psychedelic rock with the four-on-the-floor rhythms of techno from Detroit and Chicago. The main features of psytrance are the percussion, bass line and random noises. [edit] Darkpsy.
