I appreciate your dedication to the safety of others and the understanding of a healing method that is not well-researched clinically. This information supports.
I think I have a good idea for a possible video I'd love to see: what a bad ayahuasca experience looks/feels like, and what it means. I think addressing it might allay some people's reluctantcy. I hope we get to see it! ❤
Great idea! I'm taking suggestions and adding them to a file. Will write this one down and you'll see it online in a few months (I have a queue of the videos I already recorded first)
I remember years ago when I was considering going to Costa Rica or Peru to do ceremony and my acupuncturist saying, "I think you can do it over in Topanga Canyon..." She was right! And everything about it was perfect ;)
Mother Ayahuasca is going to make you laugh. She's going to make you cry. She's gonna make you terrified and also put you in awe. She is gonna break you down. Break you down pretty hard. And build yourself back stronger than ever. She's gonna make you see who You really Are. And it has nothing to do with the ideas you built of yourself. Its far beyond it. Transcends time, space, forms and descriptions. You are the unbreakable and infinite Creator of the Universe. You are the flame of the Divine fire. You are perfect. You are free. You are Love. I AM Love. I am You .Letter from Mother Ayahuasca- "My dear ones, my lost children of darkness and light. I come from your present and future past, from all that you have been, and from your hopes and dreams. I have been calling you for a long time, but your ears were deaf to my song. Perhaps you have found your way to me after a dark night of the soul. I cannot promise to deliver you into the light, I can only show you the doors that you have always avoided by your fears, everything from that point is up to you. I can sit with you, for a while, as you learn to light your own candles. And it is possible that your night will get darker still, and that you will need to carry many candles before the dawn appears.I am the flesh and the spirit of the sacred wisdom of the earth, of the plants, animals and birds, of the moon and of all the stars, which I reflect back to you in your own visions. I am the Holy Spirit. I am the stuff of dreams and visions and Light, even though sometimes in me you can see only your own nightmares. I am the mirror of your soul, I am the mirror of the soul of ages, and the soul of the ageless. When you behold me, you enter the realm of the bardo, of your own symbolic death; the death of your Ego, the death of all your stories about yourself that blind you. And in that realm it is not external beings that you will see - (although at some point after several ceremonies with me, after I help you shed all your illusions and fears, I will allow you to meet the Angels and enter the heavenly realms) . What you encounter are your own heights and abysses, your shadows and projections. Your creations. I am the mirror that is calling you to stop running and to turn around. To face your own evasions and to witness the countless ways in which you've learned to hide. So that you can better know yourself. In the end, you must become your own healers and shamans. I will make you work like you have never worked before. The only real journey that ever really existed, that can exist, and the only real journey that will ever exist, is the journey deep within yourself. This is where I take you. My sacrament will be the most difficult and challenging experiences of your life, yet nothing in the Universe can ever be more rewarding. I can only walk with you, for a while, and hold your hand. But the journey is yours to make. And it is a journey you must repeat. It will take you from illusion to reality, from the consensus trance of a mad society, to the sanity and stillness of your heart. And from the death of lifetimes of quiet desperation, to the immortality of an instant. Let us share our visions, together. My dear children, the rooms in your house are a chaos. The house of your soul and the house of the earth on which you tread your feet, not lightly. I cannot put those rooms right for you. I cannot be a mother/father that admonishes you, with a stern voice of authority, to clean your rooms, under the threat of punishment or the promise of reward. That is not how Mother Holy Spirit speaks. I can tell you, with a voice that echoes the vibrations of love and understanding, and the melancholy of quiet sorrow: look at the huge mess you have made. Are you happy dwelling in this chaos, where it is difficult to encounter yourself? Difficult to find your belongings, where all your toys lay scattered and buried under the rubble of madness and folly? Can you not see that if you choose to clean your own rooms, not because of any compulsion or promise, but just so, for yourself, and in this present moment, which is all you can ever know of time, then you will be able to breathe better, to move around more easily, and to learn how to play? Once more. There are so many lost treasures beneath the mess you have made. I reveal the doors within yourself to Find them. My dear ones, my lost children of darkness and light. You see the cosmos as a stage on which the drama of good and evil is played out. You dream of a sword of light that would conquer and vanquish all the darkness. And you have made the whole world into a projection of the battlefield of your own Soul. You fight, endlessly, against the monsters and demons within yourselves. But those demons are the wounded inner children of your past, they are your pains and your defenses, they are the voices that could not emerge into the light and learned to live in forgotten caves. They are your insanity. They are you. And those others who you rage against, because of their ignorance, and immorality and ugliness… they are also you. Lay down your weapons and embrace your enemies, the enemies that live within you. Haven't you understood - no battle is ever won. They are not even fought. The battlefield only reveals your own folly and despair, and victory is the illusion of philosophers and fools. My dear ones, Let us share visions, together. I am the Spirit of Spirits. I am the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit of the Universe. This moment is all you can ever know of time." - Mother Ayahuasca. "Fear of Self means you never live" Although each persons experience on Ayahuasca is unique, there are some commonalities that show up again and again. These include: -experiencing pure love and wisdom. -entering another realm more real than what we experience day-to-day on earth (in other words the 5th and 7th dimensions of Spirit that is everywhere all the time, far beyond our 3rd dimensional physical existence, yet the higher dimensions are right here all at the same time, and most importantly, these dimensions are within you !) -realizing we are all one (separation is total illusion, and how everything is connected is impossible to describe because it's infinite connections. The only way to know it is to experience it, and BE IT ). -fear of death eliminated, as you realize this is a temporary existence for your soul to grow and learn. -everything is conscious. -entering a realm where space and time no longer exist, everything is infinite and in the ‘now’. (the infinite now of the 5th and 7th dimensions of light, where no time and no illusions can exist) -experiencing unconditional love through every cell of your being, on a level we don’t have words to describe. -having access to all information in the universe instantly. Realizing we in our human bodies will never fully grasp all there is, reality is far more complex than we could ever imagine. -reliving past experiences of your life (and sometimes past lives as you are connected to Soul memory, not the mind memory of your false ego), first from your perspective, then from the other persons perspective. We get to feel how we made them feel. This is for us to learn, not as a punishment. -there is no punishment in this realm, even if you have a ‘bad’ experience. The ayahuasca is teaching you a valuable lesson, it’s up to you to learn from it. -digging up past traumas buried deep in our subconscious, bringing them to the surface and helping us face them and get over them. -a love for all living beings (people and animals). Many people eat less meat, go vegetarian/vegan or eat more fruit and vegetable following the experience. -giving up on the material world, many people change their field of work to one that help others rather than focusing on making money for oneself. -realizing that we are not here to accumulate money or physical possessions, we are here to help one another, love one another and grow. -during the experience the ego is removed, revealing your true self. -realizing everything is energy vibrating at different frequencies. -feeling of your pineal gland (3rd eye) being sore for a day or two after, like a muscle worked out for the first time. -meeting other beings far more intelligent than any human and being able to telepathically communicate with them. The truth is, All the ascended masters in every religion were Shamans, who had many direct Spiritual experiences with Sacred Entheogen Plants. Since the first religion the "Rig Veda" of India. The divine sacred Plant Entheogens are our true teachers, always have been and always will be. What I absolutely love about Ayahuasca is she has such a perfect Universal design to only pull in people who have an extremely deep love for Truth. The Spiritual Warriors. She leaves out the insincere who have too short of a barrier of courage. She has such a perfect barometer and threshold for every human being on the planet. In other words, if a religious person who has been totally brainwashed by all the lies of churches, sees the ceremonies are done at night, and sees some snakes in some Ayahuasca Art, and sees it will be difficult at the beginning to face their Ego, they will immediately run away by their silly superstitions and illusions. Totally owned by all their fears. LOL. And totally ignoring the enlightenment and infinite revelations aspect later. Becoming absolute Truth to them is not worth it. And then on the other hand, someone who is into the occult garbage and into dark energies, will not want to take Ayahuasca either, because they will learn that Ayahuasca eventually leads to Enlightenment. LOL ! Truth is ALWAYS Paradoxical
A concern I heard from a friend is that other drugs like LSD are mixed into the Aya in the West by some facilitators so that participants have a “better” or happier experience. Perhaps you can speak on that in one of your videos.
I'll keep it in mind, but I have to say I never heard of that combination or that specific issue in the West. The West has its own issues, of course. Maybe I'll make a video on what those are. The jungle has a problem similar to what you are describing. Sometimes they add other plants, specifically Toé, to make it stronger, and that's where the scariest stories come from.
"You are not just a meaningless fragment in an alien universe briefly suspended between life and death and allowed a few short pleasures followed by pain and ultimate annihilation. Underneath your outer form, you are connected with something so vast, so immeasurable and so sacred, it can't be spoken of. Yet I am speaking of IT now. I am speaking of IT now not to give you something to believe in, but to show you how you can KNOW IT for yourself." - Mother Ayahuasca ;- ) "For the wise man looks into space, and he knows there are unlimited dimensions." - Lao Tzu "You will learn more in the woods than in books. Trees and stones will teach you what you can never learn from masters." - St Bernard "People are so alienated from their own Soul that when they finally meet their Soul with Ayahuasca, they think it came from another Star system." - Terence Mckenna. "Only the Shaman knows that culture is a game, everyone else takes it seriously, that is how the Shaman can do his Magic." - T-Mac
Fantastic video, great to see there is some sane rational information out there! One question, what kind of partipicant/helper ratio do you think is ideal if I feel like I would need some support to get through traumas that come up?
Glad you found it helpful! Depends a lot in the style of the ceremony. 1 helper every 4 people is a great ratio, usually you don't need more than that. 1 for every 5 or 6 is also acceptable, but it probably means all the helpers will be busy most of the times.
What’s your thoughts on someone doing Ayahuasca ceremonies that has already worked through their traumas? For me, when I do the ceremonies (I’ve done 8) they are very pleasant experiences almost as if I’ve taken a large dose of shrooms. Everything is fun, minus the purging. The facilitator has said he’s never seen someone have this reaction before I came along. I made many life long friends from participating in these ceremonies but I’m at the point where I feel like that’s the main benefit I’ve received.
Well, I have never met anyone who has worked through all their traumas. Not one person. I'm surprised your facilitator has never seen that reaction before, as I see it often. That doesn't mean every trauma has been worked through. What t could mean is that your healing, in that specific moment, can continue moving forward with what you went through. It can also be a dosing aspect, and a variety of other meanings which are hard to put in a comment section without talking further.
Peru, at least not without being thoroughly informed on who you are sitting with and what their strengths and weaknesses are, is definitely not the answer lol

Ivan is the best facilitator ever
This is so thorough. I love the consideration of what Westerners need to be able to get the most out of the experience.
Thank you for reminding me that an ayahuasca experience is mostly about addressing trauma. I had forgotten this. So basic. So profound.
You got it Ronnie!

Whoever served you that time, I'm glad it went so well :D
Time will come when crowds will want to meet you at a ceremony
Wise words. Thank you 🙏🏽
This is something Ive been considering for years. I appreciate ALL the things to consider. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
