Perception of interdependent opposites is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of [[psychedelic]] [[tryptamine|tryptamines]] such as [[psilocin]], [[ayahuasca]], [[DMT]], and [[4-AcO-DMT]]. The effect is commonly accompanied by other [[transpersonal effects]] such as [[unity and interconnectedness]] or [[perception of eternalism]].
