The Mechanisms of Psychedelic Visionary Experiences - Frontiers frontiersin.org 2 facts
claimEgoless experiences, measured as 'oceanic boundlessness,' are associated with alterations in the frontolimbic-parieto-striatal network and are positively correlated with cerebral glucose metabolism in Default Mode Network regions (anterior cingulate cortex, hippocampus, inferior parietal cortex) and prefrontal cortex areas (frontomedial superior, frontolateral, and left inferolateral).
referenceThe Default Mode Network primarily involves connections among the thalamus, posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), and areas of the limbic system (parahippocampal cortex and the hippocampus) that function as a network for information routing and integration, as described by Buckner et al. (2008).

claimClassic psychedelics initiate a cascade of altered neural connectivity and blood-flow across brain regions including the default-mode network (medial prefrontal cortex, posterior cingulate cortex, inferior parietal lobule, lateral temporal cortex, hippocampus, and precuneus), the amygdala, the thalamus, and the claustrum.
