The medicine plant: Ayahuasca - the “Channel to the Invisible World
Ayahuasca allows the shaman to enter other dimensions where powerful healings, clairvoyance, initiations, ancestral knowledge exchange and communications with the plant, animal and spirit world is possible.
Ayahuasca is a cleansing medicine plant that works on different levels: it is a purge that cleanses the body from its toxins, it also frees the mind from different psychological traumas and is a tool to work on mankind's inner development. Diets are very important in the use of Ayahuaska and during ceremonies.
Master Healers who are initiated to use the “icaros” or Sacred Healing Chants to which they have access through the use of the Master Plant conduct these ceremonies.
The Ayahuasca is an ancestral medicine which, in some occasions, has the faculty of connecting some human beings with powers of the Spiritual Collective Consciousness, giving them access to primordial images or archetypes which influence humanity's most ancient, general and deep thoughts, as they are as much related with feelings as with thoughts. Furthermore, they possess something like their own independent life, as would that sort of partial soul that is described in all philosophical and Gnostic systems based on the perception of Higher Consciousness as the Source of Knowledge, as in Rudolf Steiner´s Anthroposophic Science of the Spirit, the representation of Angels, Archangels, Thrones and Dominations in Saint Paul's writings, of the Archons in ancient Greece and Realms of Light for the Gnostics, as well as of the Celestial Hierarchy in Dionisio Aeropagita, etc. All of these proceed from the perception of the relative independence of the Archetypes and dominating beings who evolve in Superior Realms and influence mankind's Spiritual Collective Consciousness. Ayahuasca, as it has the power of giving access to the dominating faculties of the collective unconscious mind, can be considered one of the most important tools for self-knowledge and as an option for humanity's spiritual development.
San Pedro (Hachuma) -- "visionary plant"
This Sacred Plant has been used for thousands of years by ancestral cultures and is one of the oldest magical plants from South America, where it grows in the mountains of the Andes. The effects of San Pedro are quite similar to that of peyote, but the spirit of San Pedro is more tranquil and in a certain way more friendly, and works especially healing and balancing on all the fluids in our body and also on our emotions, for example, it has strong anti-depressive and therapeutic qualities. The plant gives colorful visions and opens the heart in a very gentle and loving way.
Huachuma offers the option to some individuals to operate a connection with Archetypes and Dominant Forces of the Higher Collective Spiritual Consciousness. This powerful medicine can lead to states of Consciousness in which unconscious complexes deeply rooted within the human being, can be dissolved. However, in order to really obtain beneficial effects, it is necessary that its use should be complemented with techniques of psychic and spiritual mastery, which allow the achievement of a re-elaboration and re-integration of the altered state of consciousness which the person who has ingested the medicine has been lead to.
In contrast with the Ayahuasca, this medicine gives, in general, the capacity of movement and orientation in the light, intensifying one's senses and making them sharper. This is why many consumers of San Pedro like to use the medicine during daytime hikes in the mountains or in other natural landscapes. Huachuma is a Sacred Medicine which has allowed many “psychonauts” to undergo self-experiences.
What people have to say about the Powerful Sacred Journey in Peru
"Dear Lilly,
I felt drawn to Peru. All my dreams and visions about this place finally came true. The retreat is breathtaking. You can surrender your soul to this perfect decor of hummingbirds, orange delicate flowers, falling waterfall and the spirit of the mountains guarding this spiritual land.
You can sense Lady's K presence all around. She put so much work and energy into this retreat, that is impossible not to feel her guarding it. Thank you Lady K. for your visions, for your care and understanding of our deep connections with the Mother Earth.
My experience with the "vine of soul" (ayahuasca) was very subtle. I actually enjoy the taste . A little bitter, but smooth. My visions were bright and clear. The shamans songs were helping us to integrate the powerful healing and wisdom of the medicine. Their love and care made it easier to understand the process of awakening of my subconscious mind.
The Sand Pedro experience was fun. Lots of hiking, beautiful landscaping . The medicine was very gentle with me. My sense of smell , my vision, my hearing and my awareness increased 10 times. I could listen to the tranquility of the Eucalyptus forest, I could see a little bee from the distance and feel like we bond with each other. Again, the shamans work was very profunde.
Creative flow and awareness has been moving me since returning home. I am in deep gratitude and awe for my journey. Thank you Lilly, thank Lady K, thank you to the shamans, thank you to the Spirit of Apu, thank you Mother Earth.
I wish I can do this journey at least once a year. I believe every time you experience the medicine you go deeper and deeper into your soul, you have more understanding for yourself and others.
I am very grateful that my health problem went away, thanks to the shamans advise to take maca root , organic powder, full of minerals .
My health improved, my relationship as well. I listen now to my intuition, I listen to the natural flow of life. I am guided by the inner energy I feel every day I woke up, and I can't wait to fulfill more of my dreams.
Love and blessings,
Mara. "
