At any rate, the semitic languages are the bastard descendants of the first phonetic corruptions of the eldest children of the early sanskrit. The occult doctrine admits of no such divisions as the aryan and the semite, accepting even the turanian with ample reservations.\u00a0 The semites, especially arabs, are later Aryans-degenerate in spirituality and perfected in materiality.\u00a0 To these belong all the Jews and the Arabs.\u00a0 The former are a tribe descended frome the Tchandalas of India, the outcasts, many of them ex-Brahmins who sought refuge in Chaldea, in Scinde, and Aria (Iran), and were truly born from their father A-Bram (no Brahmin) some 8000 years B.C.\u00a0 The latter, the arabs, are the descendants of those Aryans who would not go into India at the time of the dispersion of nations, some of whom remained on the borderlands therof, in Afghanistan and Kabul, and along the oxus, while others penetrated into and invaded Arabia.\u00a0– Blatavsky, from the ‘Secret Doctrine’<\/em><\/p>\n

act<\/em><\/strong>ing at a distance<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0<\/em>bureaucracy overcomes pity by distancing the human subject and by spreading responsibility across the organization and diffusing it down the hierarchy. The distancing is accomplished in two ways: the human affected by our actions is redefined as an “animal”, as “the other”; and technology permits us to act upon humans who are at such a distance that we cannot directly observe what we have done to them. This last point–that the psychological consequences are less when technology permits us to act at a distance– is supported by studies comparing the post-Vietnam war suffering of infantry, who had shot people at close range, and of pilots who had dropped bombs on them from higher altitudes. Bauman says that animal pity is inspired by the proximity of the sufferer, and it seems contradictory but true that it is harder to kill one person with one’s hands than a million by pressing a button.\u00a0http:\/\/www.spectacle.org\/496\/dream.html<\/em><\/p>\n

In other words, a bunch of guys who spent their time running around the woods, hunting and fishing and trading meat for sex, one day saw someone hoeing weeds and said to themselves, ‘What a fine idea! Let’s go do that instead.’ Is it possible that the technology did not spread entirely by adoption, that hunter-gatherers were wiped out or displaced by an advancing agricultural imperialism?

allometric<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0growth<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0– the pattern of growth whereby different parts of the body grow at different rates with respect to each other.<\/p>\n

allometry<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0–<\/em>\u00a0 \u201c . . . this point is made most compellingly by allometry, when parts of the body grow at different rates. A familiar example is the slower growth of the human skull relative to the body in children, causing adults to end up with heads not much larger than those of infants but atop large muscular bodies. If the allometry of a species is strong, small adults can be strikingly different from large adults in many biological traits, even if they are all identical genetically in the trait under consideration. Among animals the process can be taken to bizarre extremes. In some stag-beetle species, such as the European Lucanus cervus, little males have relatively short, simple mandibles, while large males have more massive mandibles half as long as the rest of the body, an armament that gains them superiority in combat. What is inherited in the males is not one of a series of body types, and not necessarily even a particular body size, but rather the allometric growth pattern common to all the males. Males that obtain less food or terminate growth early end up small and feminized; those that reach large size become hulking, top-heavy supermales. The allometry itself is relatively simple, dependent only on differences in rates of growth among certain patches of tissue. It is easy to imagine a rapid switch of a magnitude often associated with the origin of species that is nevertheless based on the simplest hereditary change. Minor mutations in one or several genes might easily alter the allometric pattern, so that all of the males come to more closely resemble females. Alternatively, the change could push the pattern the other way, so that all stag-beetle males sprout huge mandibles. The social systems of ants illustrate the power of allometry even more dramatically. The caste system of each ant colony, from queens to big-headed soldiers to small-headed workers, is based on a single allometric pattern common to all female members of the colony. Depending on the food and chemical stimuli she receives as a larva, a female ant becomes a queen or a soldier or a minor worker. All fall within the same allometric framework. Genes have nothing to do with the caste determination of the female, but they do determine the allometry of the colony and thus the characteristics of the caste system as a whole. If the allometry is changed even a little by gene mutations, a different caste system emerges.\u201d\u00a0–\u00a0Edmond Wilson<\/em><\/p>\n

allopathy<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0– a system of medical practice which aims to combat disease by the use of remedies which produce effects different from those produced by the disease treated.\u00a0 It derives from the law of contraries, which aims to contradict or suppress symptoms.\u00a0 In the history of Western medicine, Galen (2nd century Greece), an exponent of rationalism in medicine, was the first to formally institute the law of contraries as the basis of practice.\u00a0 However, his opponents, the empirics, maintained that experience taught them that the law of similars healed, contrary to rational doctrine.\u00a0 The law of similarities treats symptoms as the body\u2019s adaptive defense against disease rather than the disease itself, and acts to express them. \u00a0It is the basis of homeopathy, and appears in many vitalistic medical philosophies which have made their way into contemporary discourses on holistic medicine.\u00a0 The doctrines that derive from the law of contraries or similars therefore define main streams of medical thought in Western medicine.\u00a0 Allopathy is now synonymous with modern biomedicine.\u00a0\u00a0– mb<\/em><\/p>\n

alternation\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– Alternation is a natural rhythm that is woven into the fabric of life on this planet. We go back and forth between day and night, the seasons of the year, breathing in and breathing out.

anamnesis\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– In modern societies, the successors to the shamans of indigenous peoples are the psychiatrists and psychotherapists, who seek to unravel the tangled skeins of dysfunctional mind-body patterns and integrate them into a more harmonious, less painful wholeness. The psychiatric anamnesis (\u201cun-forgetting\u201d) is exactly analogous to the shamanic soul retrieval, and the divinatory re-membering. The broken connections of one\u2019s past history to one\u2019s present condition are recalled and recollected, and can then be integrated and made whole again. Painful, traumatic or confusing experiences tend to freeze or distort the normal processing of our experience. –\u00a0Ralph Metzner<\/em><\/p>\n

ancestral chi\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>~ ‘In Taoist medicine we find that one of the descriptions of our life force includes our “ancestral chi,” and that one of the images of chi is the vapor that rises from the warmth of the blood. How interesting then, that Mayan shamans would retire to fast and pray in deep caves, and in a moment of ecstasy sprinkle drops of their blood on coals in sacred altars, and see within the rising wisps of smoke the spirits of their ancestors taking form, and hear them speaking wisdom that only those gone beyond could possess. I heard something similar but different from Tibetan doctors in the Himalayas, who claimed that once, when physicians were more spiritually developed, a sick person did not need to travel to receive a pulse diagnosis, but a close relative would suffice, so deep and intimate is the entwining of our energies. Knowing that our ancestors live on inside us can illuminate many mysteries of karma, both individual and familial, and it is not difficult to see blessings and curses passing through the generations. We need not feel envious of those families of extreme but ill-begotten wealth, for it is accompanied with much spiritual sickness; it is enough to know that whatever seeds of goodness we plant in this lifetime will not only bear fruit for ourselves but also for our descendants, and there is always the possibility that a descendant may actually be our future self.’ ~\u00a0David Crow<\/em><\/p>\n

ancestors<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0–<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0 The Ancestors are a spiritual experience not common to most modern religions. (They are the same thing as “the Saints” in Catholicism, but the Saints are little appreciated nowadays either.) The Ancestors are not easy to describe, but the following could be said about them. One’s beneficent genetic ancestors, as well as the people who inhabited one’s homeland in the past, as well as one’s personal spiritual antecedents and inspirational guides, whether genetically related or not, comprise the Ancestors. In addition, the animals and plants of one’s homeland would also have to be included here\u2014or rather, they include themselves, because they claim to have helped build our bodies and the bodies of our ancestors up from the soil. The Ancestors are an indispensable part of life, material and spiritual. They are not some mysterious people out there to spook us (though that is possible to the careless), but they are the people who went before us, who kept alive the traditions of fairness, decency, love, compassion, and spiritual wisdom, so that we, who came afterwards, could have a world that was worth living in. By being good, kind, spiritual people, the Ancestors earned the respect of the Creator, so that after their death they were allowed to continue as sentient beings. And now, from the other side, they still look over us, guiding, protecting, teaching, loving us. But of course, they can only be perceived by people who are, like themselves, dedicated to humane and spiritual purposes. The Great Creator respects the Ancestors. Because of their spiritual activities they stand justified before him. Because he respects them, and because we stand on their shoulders, we are required to acknowledge and respect them as well. The Indians would say that it is not possible to communicate with the Creator unless one has this connection. The Ancestors are braided into the over-all human divine interconnection. In Indian ceremonies they act as a channel between us and the other world. The Indians never held that they were gods, except in periods of cultural degradation, but only that they are an indispensable part of the link to God. As an Indian medicine man once said, “The whiteman has his medicine, but he will never be able to heal because he does not know the Ancestors.” –\u00a0Matthew Wood<\/em>\u00a02) ‘It is important to understand the increasing light vibration (of planet earth) will call all of us to take responsibility for our ancestor’s deeds, words and actions through bringing them into our hearts with compassion, love and forgiveness and through enacting the wisdom to not create the same reality through fear that some of our ancestors have created for our collective here. –\u00a0Qala<\/em>\u00a03) For our ancestors and guides who are always with us are exactly this… our past and and future selves guiding us because they ARE us and we are interdepent, interconnected and all evolving as one united being comprised of infinite manifestations across dimensionality and the constructs of form and time, as they exist within each level of existence. –\u00a0Jessica Begin<\/em><\/p>\n

And you will be more resourceful in how you deal with the challenges you are facing. . . .\u00a0How do you escape the negative, imprisoning forces that continue to confine you and the human spirit? The most efficient and simple way is to cultivate appreciation \u2014 as ridiculous as that may sound in the face of the immense challenges facing your earth. Appreciation is a key that will unlock the doorway to the new world, even as the old world dissolves and falls apart, as it must. . . .\u00a0If you learn to live in appreciation, you will enter a domain, a vibration that will carry you through the chaos of these times. You will find a type of solace and comfort, and the vibrational rate of your energy body will increase. At some point you will reach what we call escape velocity. You will easily step out of the illusions and the lies of the old world.

One can think of them as primordial instincts, as Freud did, or as transcendent first principles as Plato did, or as gods of the psyche as James Hillman does. Archetypes (for example, Venus or Mars) seem to have a transcendent, mythic quality, yet they also have very specific psychological expressions–as in the desire for love and the experience of beauty (Venus), or the impulse toward forceful activity and aggression (Mars). Moreover, archetypes seem to work from both within and without, for they can express themselves as impulses and images from the interior psyche, yet also as events and situations in the external world. Jung thought of archetypes as the basic constituents of the human psyche, shared cross-culturally by all human beings, and he regarded them as universal expressions of a collective unconscious. Much earlier, the Platonic tradition considered archetypes to be not only psychological but also cosmic and objective, as primordial forms of a Universal Mind that transcended the human psyche. Astrology would appear to support the Platonic view as well as the Jungian, since it gives evidence that Jungian archetypes are not only visible in human psychology, in human experience and behavior, but are also linked to the macrocosm itself–to the planets and their movements in the heavens. Astrology thus supports the ancient idea of an anima mundi, or world soul, in which the human psyche participates. From this perspective, what Jung called the collective unconscious can be viewed as being ultimately embedded within the cosmos itself. –\u00a0R. Tarnas\u00a0<\/em>7) “Freud, who started as Jung\u2019s mentor and later became his rival, generally viewed the unconscious mind as a warehouse for repressed desires, which could then be codified and pathologized and treated.

A<\/em><\/strong>.S<\/strong>.C<\/strong>. (altered states of consciousness<\/strong>) –\u00a0<\/em>1) is an arena outside time and space, containing metaphor and imagery as latency.\u00a0 Metaphor here is an external mental form which corresponds to latent symbolic structures.\u00a0 It is being in energy, thru a ritual focus that engenders an ASC, which in turn translates the \u2018numinous\u2019 qualities of metaphor into human experience, that the initiate then integrates with physically.\u00a0 Knowledge therefore becomes deeply embedded in the body as physical experience.\u00a0 *The importance of ASC is that it lessens taints from accompanying \u2018projections\u2019 into the energy state.\u00a0 In this process the qualities inherent in particular metaphors can be eventually given form .\u00a0 ASC permits shifts in cognitive\/perceptual mindstates and permit the initiate to see a larger picture of interconnectedness that was formerly not possible (or \u2018noteasilyaccessed\u2019).

atomism<\/em><\/strong>–mechanism<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0<\/em>The belief that the universe is divisible into simple and similar particles and that all wholes (forms) are fundamentally made up of these particles and nothing more can be termed atomism. The different concrete wholes, like rocks, trees, planets, and air, are simply different configurations of these particles; and change in wholes, such as the growth of a rose from seed to flower, comprise only changes in the configurations of particles.\u00a0 Atomism began with the philosophy of Leucippius and Democritus, who found a compromise between the universal unity and unchangeability of Parmenides and the commonsense world of diversity and change. Their argument was that the sensory world was reducible to indivisible particles, called atoms, which themselves were identical and unchanging–hence providing a fundamental unity and unchangeableness to the universe. Thus, nature’s wholes were simply a sum (configuration) of its parts (atoms).\u00a0 From its beginning, this basic doctrine has undergone a number of interpretations as it was espoused by such as Epicurus, Lucretius, Gassendi, and William Boyle. However, its core notion of irreducible particles common to all wholes became a general theory of mechanistic science in the seventeenth century, underlying the philosophical perspective of, say, Hobbes and later Holbach and La Mettrie. This view was pervasive in nineteenth-and twentieth- century physics, chemistry, and biology, and we are now seeing its influence in the social sciences (behaviorism). Essentially, the mechanistic philosophy \u00e0 la Hobbes sees commonsense wholes as made up of patterns and motion of basic particles. The fundamental laws involve the motions of these particles and their configurations; regularities found for wholes should be reducible to these laws. Moreover, causes are simply the action of one particle upon another (action-at- a-distance, such as gravity, was indeed troublesome to this philosophy, and led to imaginative attempts to define a corpuscular ether transmitting such causes). Things themselves can only act as a consequence of being acted upon.\u00a0 Because particles were considered similar, if not identical, this mechanistic perspective generally led to emphasizing quantity over qualities, “primary” over “secondary” characteristics. Mass, length, and velocity become fundamental concepts of reality, superordinate to “subjective” qualities like color, texture, odor, taste, and shape. Reality was seen as a universal machine, set in motion, perhaps by God, constructed of elementary particles, governed by mathematical laws, and fully determined.\u00a0 Mechanism, while still a popular commonsense philosophy and a methodological paradigm for social scientists, has lost its scientific base. Few physicists accept it today. The mechanical view has failed in its attempts to construct ethers, light corpuscles, and mechanical models to account for physical phenomena. Scientists increasingly have had to employ constructs without mechanical meaning (such as electromagnetic field) whose interpretations lie wholly within the mathematical equations of which it is a part. Mechanical models are no longer felt to be needed, even if at all conceivably possible. The focus is now on mathematical abstractions–functions, not material particles.\u2013\u00a0rj rummel<\/em><\/p>\n

autopoesis\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– Teachers of biology used to teach a list of properties of living things to distinguish them from non-living things, because it simply had no basic definition of life. This list included such properties as irritability (reactivity), mobility, growth and reproduction. A few decades ago, two Chilean biologists, Humberto Maturana and Francisco Varela, gave us our first basic definition of life as autopoiesis, a Greek word meaning “self creation.” The definition that goes by this name is as follows: A living entity is one that continually creates its own parts. Note that this basic definition says nothing about growth or reproduction, which may or may not be properties of a living system. Some of you may be happy to know that you can be alive whether you reproduce or not. In any case, this definition seems to apply admirably well to our planet Earth, which scientists used to think of not as a living entity, but as a non-living geological ball upon the surface of which, by some miracle, life sprang from non-life.\u00a0Now we can see that the Earth constantly creates itself from the inside out, lava erupting from its molten insides to form new rock, while old rock is eroded, carried to the oceans and remelted at the subduction zones of tectonic plates, where the edge of one slides beneath the edge of another. This great recycling system of magma to rock to magma is joined by those of Earth’s waters and atmosphere as the sources of endless creativity, endless supplies of materials to be incorporated into microbes, plants and animals. The entire planet regulates its temperature like a warm-blooded creature, which indeed it can be see to be, as well as regulating the delicate chemical balance in the composition of its atmosphere, seas and soils, further evidence that it is a great living cell or body. Note well that it can function as such only because all its parts are in constant communication and because of the ceaseless planetwide flow of its energy and materials. Life will never evolve naturally on one part of a planet; planets either come to life as wholes or do not come to life at all. \u2013\u00a0E. Sahourtis<\/em><\/p>\n

Some people see the whole of their body as a double; some see only parts, perhaps only the face. There is an internal form in which the subject can see his internal organs; and a cenesthetic form in which he does not see, but only feels the presence of his double. There is even a negative form in which the subject cannot see himself even when he tries to look into a mirror. –\u00a0http:\/\/www.psychwww.com\/asc\/obe\/faq\/obe19.html<\/em><\/p>\n

avatar\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– ‘Whenever righteousness wanes and unrighteousness increases I send myself forth. In order to protect the good and punish the wicked, In order to make a firm foundation for righteousness, I come into being age after age.’\u00a0(4.7\u20138) – Bhagavadg\u012bt\u0101 2)\u00a0<\/em>Theologically an avat\u0101ra is a specialized form assumed by Vi\u1e63\u1e47u for the purpose of maintaining or restoring cosmic order. The form is suited to particular circumstances, which vary greatly, and therefore the different avat\u0101ras that Vi\u1e63\u1e47u assumes also vary greatly. All the avat\u0101ras, however, perform positive functions vis-\u00e0-vis the cosmic order and illustrate Vi\u1e63\u1e47u’s nature as a deity who is attentive to worldly stability. Historically the different avat\u0101ras of Vi\u1e63\u1e47u often appear to represent regional, sectarian, or tribal deities who have been subsumed by established Hinduism under the rubric of one of Vi\u1e63\u1e47u’s many forms. By viewing these regional deities as so many varying forms of one transcendent deity, Hinduism was able to accommodate itself to a great variety of local traditions while maintaining a certain philosophic and religious integrity. This process also obviated unnecessary tension and rivalry among differing religious traditions. Although the number of Vi\u1e63\u1e47u’s avat\u0101ras varies at different periods in the Hindu tradition and in different scriptures, the tradition usually affirms ten avat\u0101ras. While the sequence in which these avat\u0101ras is mentioned varies, the following order is common: fish, tortoise, boar, man-lion, dwarf, R\u0101ma the Ax Wielder, R\u0101ma of the R\u0101m\u0101yana, K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a, the Buddha, and Kalki. Traditionally, each avat\u0101ra appears in order to perform a specific cosmic duty that is necessary to maintain or restore cosmic order. Having performed that task, the avat\u0101ra then disappears or merges back into Vi\u1e63\u1e47u. –http:\/\/www.bookrags.com\/research\/avatra-eorl-02\/<\/em><\/p>\n

Ave Marie\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– Ave Marie is a common mantra chanted by Christians around the world. The Angelic Salutation, Hail Mary, or Ave Maria (Latin) is a traditional biblical catholic prayer asking for the intercession of the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus.
\nIn Latin ~ Av\u0113 Mar\u012ba, gr\u0101ti\u0101 pl\u0113na, Dominus t\u0113cum. Benedicta t\u016b in mulieribus, et benedictus fr\u016bctus ventris tu\u012b, I\u0113sus.

\nIn English ~~
\nHail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
\nHoly Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.<\/p>\n

avenues\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>of thought<\/strong>\u00a0– \u2018<\/em>If one does not reject patent and observable facts, we are inevitably led by these considerations on\u00a0ayahuasca<\/em>\u00a0to a necessary epistemological revision of modern science, especially medicine. Conceptual frameworks, experimental models, and classic paradigms are all shown here to be inadequate to explain such an experience. Aristotelian thought, the foundation of modern science, provides an inadequate system of coordinates. It appears to us that one cannot undertake a serious and audacious (and ambitious) study of phenomena in the modification of states of consciousness without previously accepting an eventual change of paradigm. The pertinence of these themes enlarges the concepts currently in vogue in order to open up new avenues of thought.\u00a0Ayahuasca\u00a0<\/em>constitutes an intellectual challenge for our time. We cannot overemphasize the need to approach the study of\u00a0ayahuasca\u00a0<\/em>through experiential practices enriched by generations of Amazonian therapists and\u00a0ayahuasqueros<\/em>.\u00a0\u00a0J.

aversion\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– aversion is attachment standing on its head.<\/p>\n

awakening\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– to actually wake up does not result in an awakened self. Rather, it results in the disappearance of the self that had been seeking. After awakening one sees, for the first time, that that seeking self is not one\u2019s actual true identity. Normal life, pre-awakening, is life within the dream of separate self and personal will. To awaken from that dream is to awaken to reality, and that reality does not include an improved or wiser separate self. Upon awakening to reality, it can be seen that awareness is the ground of all being. It can also be seen that ultimately there is only one awareness. That is, \u201cI\u201d do not possess an awareness of my own. Awareness is basic, and the notion of \u201cI\u201d is now seen to be the central illusion of human existence. This could be expresses as: Awareness is real, but \u201cI\u201d am a dream. . . Living in reality means identifying as the All and not as any particular. It means seeing that there is only one awareness, and that everything is that one awareness. As the years post-Awakening pass, this knowing is more and more omnipresent-\u00a0Donovan Thesanga<\/em><\/p>\n

awareness\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>flows<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0<\/em>Integrative (as opposed to adversarial) approaches to truth might benefit a population that is becoming increasingly congested in its planetary home. Freeing epistemology from the so-called ‘Age of Reason’ might even bring scholarly benefits, such as opening areas of inquiry notoriously resistant to logical investigation, e.g., the visionary quests of sorcerers, the meditational insights of lamas, or just those evanescent understandings people sometimes grasp in that never-never land between sleep and waking. It might also help us understand those awareness flows that can occur across seemingly impenetrable cultural and cognitive barriers. Inquiry into such matters has long resisted both syntax and logic as well as the crucial pillars underlying them: e.g., quantification, measurement, and classification.\u00a0–\u00a0Sorenson, R.<\/em><\/p>\n

ayahuasca\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– 1) can be viewed as a cleanser; infiltrating and clearing at every possible level of being, chelating wherever darkness hides in the body and energy field, and expelling it. –\u00a0http:\/\/www.realitysandwich.com\/how_shipibo_healers_cured_my_brain_tumor<\/em>\u00a02) A gateway –\u00a0Deborah Frances<\/em>\u00a03) Despite its growing popularity Ayahuasca remains an exotic mystery. Still used as an important part of spiritual life in many tribes of the South American rain forest it acts as an\u00a0ethnobotanical medicinal system, in which the tea is the key for healing and progression of human consciousness. Ayahuasca opens the doors and leads to a state where the crystal energy fields of our environment are perceived. The usage of the force of words and sounds in the work with this mystical substance manifests clarity about our mission and the development of the human species. Therefore it transmits huge individual changes. No other substance known to us includes such a wonderful progressive effect on daily-life like it is the case with Ayahuasca. Ayahuasca is regarded by its consumers as the real manifestation of god on earth, thus it is the essence of the two Amazonian plants \u2013 the mariri and the chacruna. The unification with the tea elevates our consciousness and sensitizes our perception. That opens the opportunity to understand the simplicity of life and the miracle of being itself. Ayahuasca awakes us. It helps to realize the importance of life, the respect towards our body and mind, charity, passion, love and forgiveness. Consequently for everything that stands in relation with survival of humanity and our planet. \u00a0The tea is divine for Ayahuasqueiros, because it catapults consciousness out of the material world into spiritual realms. Suffer, conflicts, physical and psychological injuries are reduced step by step depending on the individual degree of readiness of each traveler who had chosen this path to walk on. Taking Ayahuasca is like receiving a divine gift; drinking its own sacral light transmits peace for the spirit, opens the heart and manifests wisdom. ~\u00a0From a Brazilian website ~~ mic@ish.de\u00a0<\/em>4) How can I best describe the ayahuasca experience to one who has never encountered? We are used to our normal 3 dimensions in this reality with time being the fourth, with ayahuasca feeling becomes the fifth dimension. Imagine being a flower opening under the dawn suns rays; actually try to experience the feeling of being that flower. Feel joy in opening, being. Now imagine being that flower located in the center of the Amazon jungle. The sun rises and you are now the entire jungle, from horizon to horizon, opening in joy. Can you feel being the entire jungle? Inner vision and physical sensation synthesise to create a new sense.-http:\/\/aaaummm.wordpress.com\/tag\/ayahuasca\/<\/em>\u00a03) ‘A prasad of the queen of the rainforest, a gift from this queen. Of course to those who are in tune to this frequency of work. It is a spiritual remedy, that works with the fear of healing, potentializing the process of healing. The goal of this medicine is similar to meditation, but acts thru different paths. Ayahuasca goes thru the path of healing, as it purifes the system, helping you to identify the miseries of the soul, the ‘open accounts’, hurts, resentments, and helps you close these accounts thru forgiveness, while opening the channels of gratitude, thru which spiritual ascension can happen. This is about making the transition from fear to trust, which means liberating yourself from the fears from the past, that only possible thru forgiveness, experiential (thru deep comprehension), not intellectual forgiveness. Ayahuasca has fulfilled its work when you are able to look back, thru your parents eyes, thru the eyes of each person of your family constellation, and you are able to sincerely give them thanx for everything. When you are able to see God in your mother and father, in all members of your family, then you are ready to be reborn in spirit. This the gift that thre Amazon rainforest brought to the world. –\u00a0Prem Baba<\/em>,\u00a0Maui Satsang 5\/10<\/em>\u00a04) ‘ . . . when the team (of scientists) then gave the volunteers a dose of ayahuasca and repeated the experiment, they found that the level of activity in the primary visual cortex was virtually indistinguishable when the volunteers were really viewing an image and when they were imagining it.
\nAccording to the researchers \u2013 \u201cThis means visions seen have a real, neurological basis, says de Araujo \u2013 they are not made up or imagined.\u201d One may however question this interpretation of the findings \u2013 why should visions that have a measurable neural correlate be considered more \u201creal\u201d that those in the inner vision? One might instead say that the power to image or imagine is amplified by the medicine, just as it amplifies other modes of perception and cognition. ~\u00a0Aran Frood (http:\/\/www.newscientist.com\/article\/dn20978-drug-hallucinations-look-real-in-the-brain.html) \u00a0<\/em>5) \u00a0magical pipeline to the supernatural realm ~\u00a0Sachahambi \u00a06) \u00a0<\/em>As an embodied plant deva, this cosmic intelligence helps us heal from the human enigma and fast track our progress into illumined understanding. . . a gift from both Mother Earth and our star lineage to transform our human consciousness and ways\u00a0~ Tiara\u00a0Kumara<\/em><\/p>\n

ayahuasca’s helpers<\/strong>~\u00a0<\/i>The leaves were Ayahuasca\u2019s \u201chelpers,\u201d I was told, and their purpose was to \u201cbrighten and clarify\u201d the visions. The vine is like a cave, and the leaf is like a torch you use to see what is inside the cave. The vine is like a book, and the leaf is like the candle you use to read the book. \u00a0The vine is like a snowy television set, and the leaf helps to tune in the picture. There was a subtle attitude that the need for strong leaf was the sign of a beginner: An experienced ayahuasquero could see the visions even in low light. ~ Gayle Highpine<\/em><\/p>\n

ayni\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>– ” . . . This state of harmony is epitomised by the sacred law of Ayni, a law taught within this tradition but essentially one of the most sacred universal laws governing life. ‘Ayni’, simply put, means reciprocity. This law ensured, in its practice, social balance within the Incan empire. At its core, it is the act of giving, and the honour that exists with this act is the sole motivator for the giver. In the west we tend to lean towards energy exchange – ‘A’ gives to ‘B’ and ‘B’ reciprocates. Ayni expresses this differently – ‘A’ gives to ‘B’ motivated purely by the love of giving. This law teaches that what has been given is an energy, no matter its form, and cannot be kept. So ‘B’ is obliged to give to another who may have need, at any time. This law is supported by nature and is obvious in our natural surroundings. A tree does not hold jealously to its fruits but gives to the birds, insects, earth, and so on, its excess. In return the tree receives what it needs to grow – water, sunlight, and minerals, for example, from nature. And so the cycle of life perpetuates in flow and harmony.’ –\u00a0http:\/\/www.inkari.co.za\/info\/aboutus.htm<\/em><\/p>\n
