Ik las zojuist een mail in m'n mailbox van the awakening (organisatie waar ik in het verleden ayahuascaceremonies heb bijgewoond. Er zit een flinke waarschuwing in naar aanleiding van een aantal gebeurtenissen de afgelopen tijd, die denk ik nuttig zijn om te delen met de mensen die zich op dit pad begeven. Een gewaarschuwd mens telt voor velen namelijk...
Ik deel de brief...
Dear people of the Sacred Plants,
With this last newsletter of 2011 I want to inform you about some good things and about some bad things as well. At the moment I am in Africa and enjoying very much the peace, the nature, the sun and the easy way of living.
Fortunately I am on line every day and so I am still in contact with a lot of people. I recently have received the happy news that Peter Aziz will be released out of prison on the 28th of this month. So he will be united with his family and he shall start with his workshops and trainings again (of course without ayahuasca). He has already made a program for the coming months, but all his classes will be in England. Unfortunately I can not invite him to come to the Netherlands, since he is not allowed to travel till the end of the court case.
I will start with ceremonies around April 2012. Nanki Nantipia, a shaman from Ecuador is coming in April for ayahuasca-ceremonies and in May is coming Santiago Andrade, my favorite san pedro shaman. He likes to come for a couple of Red Path ceremonies in the tipi. I am also in contact with Javier Arevalo from the Shahanua tribe from Peru to visit us somewhere in Summer time.
And now, here comes the bad news. I am very shocked by the news, that a good friend of mine, a lady that is already many years on the shamanic path became totally psychotic after a week of ayahuasca and iboga. I can tell you that this lady was completely normal. She is married, she has a son, she was a very good healer and she had her own healing practice. She also organizes many shamanic courses and trainings with a lot of success. She has been drinking medicine many, many times in my ceremonies and she has been to Peru as well. She was in one word very experienced.
But she made this terrible mistake to do a week of ayahuasca and iboga with somebody who was not a qualified shaman. Besides that I also heard that ayahuasca and iboga should never be taken short after each other. Anyway, she is in such a bad condition that she has been taken into a mental hospital and it looks like she has to stay there for quite a long time. She is deeply psychotic.
I am telling you this, because this is not the only case that I know of. On my website: www.ayahuasca-ceremonies.org I warn thoroughly for this danger and I receive a lot of reactions from people that need help after a ceremony with an unqualified shaman.They are out of balance, they feel possessed by something bad, some are psychotic like my friend, it is all terrible what I hear. And than they ask me for help and the only thing I can do is send them to Santo Daime Church or to a very good shaman like Miguel Chiriap or Peter Aziz who can take the demonic energies out of them and restore the balance.
There are many therapists and healers that seem to think that they can use ayahuasca and iboga in a psychotherapeutic way and I can tell you no, that is not the way. These medicine plants come out of shamanic traditions and should be used in this way. These self made shamans have usually no idea from the spiritual realms and from the negative demonic energies that they have to deal with. It often goes wrong, maybe not in the first time but in the longer term. And many times these therapists have no idea what damage they cause.
Please take my advice, only drink medicine with a well trained shaman who has the protection from his tradition, who knows the songs, the prayers, who has the help of his ancestor spirits. And if this shaman is not available, than simply don’t do it. I want to take Iboga already for a long time, but I only want to it with a well trained Iboga shaman from the Bwiti in Gabon. And I have never met such a shaman till now, so I don’t do it. I know the dangers to well, so I am not going to take it such a powerful brew without proper guidance.
The only way to experience the healing powers of these plants is with a well trained shaman from an original tradition or with Santo daime church. Here in Gambia I do many small Santo Daime ceremonies for myself and my friends and they are absolutely wonderful, full of healing and light, with total guidance from my angels. I have an enormous respect for this tradition as well.
Unfortunately more bad news has come to me when I heard that Almasta, the spiritual leader of Friends of the Forest, who has been serving medicine for a long time, has had a terrible motor accident and died on the 13th of December after having been in coma for three weeks. I want to send my prayers for him and his family.
For me, it is clear that we are going through a very intense time and that specially people who are serving the Light and are trying to raise the human consciousness can be seriously attacked by the Dark Forces. The battle between Light and Dark is on its heights now and we are not on the winning side yet.
So my message for you for 2012 is;
Please take care of yourself. Don’t take too many risks, the energies are very intense right now, take time to relax, meditate and pray. Further, do not underestimate the power of prayer, it can be stronger than any medicine-ceremony.
Therefore as a Christmas present I send you all the prayers that I have received from Isabel Barse, from Santo Daime Church in Mapia, Brasil. These are channeled prayers with the help of the Santo Daime. There are different prayers for the Archangels, for Ascended Masters, Jesus Christ, the Light etc. They are very powerful and they can give you a lot of healing. Just choose a few that you feel really attached to and do them regularly to keep you in contact with these Higher Forces. They can help you moving during these intense shifts. .
Here under you will find some prayers. You will find more in the attachment.
With this I wish you many beautiful blessings for your ascension in 2012,
Much love from Hannah
