what is the cause of "CEV perception level 1: visual noise"? Tentative candidates are:

  1. cortically generated
  2. autofluorescence in visual organs
  3. red blood cells visible somehow
  4. light through eyelids

[edit] Poor Article

This article really needs a clean up. It reads like somebody copy and pasted a bunch of text from erowid.org. The article should have names, descriptions of the hallucinations, causes. It should read like an encyclopedia entry. It is also factually incorrect. I have personally taught several hundred people how to reach the so-called "level 4" in a single meditation session -- with no drugs.

As I'm not qualified to fix it myself, I'm putting the cleanup template up. 216.99.209.252 09:20, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree that this article is lacking credibility. The statements made in the article can not be attributed to erowid. There are major contradictions between the article and information available at erowid. Since erowid does provide information on the effects different substances I placed an external link. There are things that I personally feel is not correct based on my own experiences. I will try to find legitimate references before making changes. 65.43.32.36 08:16, 8 February 2007 (UTC)


I would be interested to know more about the causes of these hallucinations, as I experience them mildly in abscence of drug use.68.253.32.54 09:37, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
