To
say Ayahuasca has changed my life would be the biggest understatement. It has changed me on a molecular
level. I not only see the world
differently but possibly also my purpose.
A few months have passed by and in that time I have found myself
thirsting for more knowledge and understanding, not only in the medicine, but
also in myself. I now know that I
have only scratched the surface of my true potential. My mind has never been sharper and I am now living my
manifestations instead of waiting for them to happen.
I
have watched many more documentaries since being back, focusing more on the Shaman’s and their importance and connection to Ayahuasca. The more I learn and study, the more I
begin to understand that I am just stepping into a much bigger world. I have come to learn the purpose for
the medicine and how the Shaman’s use it to communicate to the spirits. These spirits guide them to be
medicine men and know what plants cure what ailments. They also use the medicine to find strength within their
communities and have even used it to strategize against governments that look
to destroy the earth. I have
also seen time and again the hundreds of lives who have been transformed from
the profound experiences and teachings of Mother Ayahuasca. There is no doubt that it is a sacred
plant that its use should never be done in vain. It is not for a good time, it is work, it is a means to face
fear and overcome insecurity.
There
is so much I do not yet know about myself I am learning everyday. I also have no excuse to say that I am
set in my ways and that I cannot overcome challenges that have been plaguing me
for years. It is time I sit face
to face with everything that stops me from achieving that which I was born to
do. I believe that it is my path
to vanquish all fear, doubt, pain and anger so that I may be able to put myself
aside and help others to face their demons.
There
is much I want to accomplish in my life and one thing that was affirmed to me
in my second ceremony is that what I am doing with my life has meaning. Arts are the way in which countless
civilizations have documented their history. It is the way that the early man communicated was through
song and art. I do have a purpose
in this life but my purpose has grown much larger. This purpose is one I now share with an amazing fiancé. We are planning our wedding for this
coming January 2014 in the Bahamas. For our honey moon in June we will then journey back to Peru where we will climb the Inca Trail up
to Machu Pichu and then off to the Andes mountains for another retreat after a
stop in at the Tierra Vida for a ceremony with old friends. Stay tuned I have a feeling that the next
Ayahuasca journey is where the real adventure begins.
Stay
tuned for An Ayahuasca Journey Part 2
