Ayahuasca -- visions of jungle medicine: Adam Oliver Brown at TEDxUOttawa

[@GarmischGator]

I was in the darkest time in my life and ayahuasca helped me heal and advance. I have so much love and empathy now and was able to cleans myself of dangerous trauma. This is the hope of our future by going back to the past.

[@1magnificentreg]

i think EVERY U.S. president should have to use ayahuasca PRIOR to holding office..

[@RainaEmeral]

Agreed! It's an extreme imbalance for our leaders to have a huge amount of power over the outer world, and little or no power or even awareness of the internal world. Then, on top of that, to make psychedelics illegal--- it's an insane culture

[@1magnificentreg]

Ayahuasca was the most religious experience of my life!

[@drummerrrrrrrrrr]

I think the correct term would be spiritual.

[@socraticproblem86]

What does spiritual mean?

[@ChrisM-bn5vr]

Sean Champion-Taylor Spiritual means you believe in something more, whether it be a higher power, after-life, god, the universe being alive. It just basically means you believe in more then what you can perceive with just your 5 senses. Usually the difference between someone who identifies as spiritual and religious. Is a religious person usually gets their form of spirituality through a church or other people, not from them-self. While a person who is just spiritual, believes that it is just between them and the universe. I am the latter.

[@socraticproblem86]

I respect that answer, so why not delve deeper? I have a friend who learns about herself through studying chemistry. Would a scientist also be considered spiritual?

[@666katch]

For me, the word spiritual and religious means sacred.

[@Michel_Moutouse]

Magnifique discours. C'était génial !

[@nedthumberland]

Many of my "Christian" friends are on a crusade against Ayahuasca. My response is usually this: Why? How does it threaten your religion? Are you genuinely concerned about the spiritual development of others? Or are you worried about how it would diminish the power your religion holds on people?

[@mysteryandmeaning297]

Some of the shamans peru blow or pray their spirit guides on you. Involving spiritualism. And chants similar. They are big on spirits. And ayahausca is a spirit they shamans believe.

Welcome to Native American psychology. Further proof that our ancestors were advanced scientists. They had to perform analysis and studies to find the plants to combine to produce ayahuasca. It wasn't created by accident. They had to use the "scientific method" to derive our medicines and medicinal practices.

[@leilanilight475]

Jose Carcamo no. The indigenous will tell you that the PLANTS themselves told them to take the vine and the chacruna leaf and to boil them together and make the brew. They were and are ONE WITH NATURE and they LISTEN to what nature tells them. This is how they formed a library of plants that heal different things in the Amazon.

[@melis6294]

I would say instead welcome to South America native medicine.

[@squirlmy]

It wasn't created by accident, for sure. There are at least hundreds of thousands of plants in the Amazon, and they found just the right combination of natural MOA Inhibitor, and DMT containing plant. Not to mention having to find whether the flowers, bark, leaves or roots had the right ingredient, and whether orally, topically, or other "routes of administration" were required. And that vomiting and purging were a desireable part of the process, rather than indicating a poisonous nature (which would be the obvious conclusion of trying nearly any other "tea") The "scientific method" alone does not explain this discovery. I think it would be more correct to say that our scientists are extremely primitive "shamans" than the other way around.

[@macintoshimann9892]

I had a disease called dystonia I was going mad trying to beat. It’s similar to Parkinson’s disease but I wanted my life back so bad I kept pushing through the ticks doctors tell you not to fight. Around the time I was starting to get somewhere I took ayahuasca a handful of evenings. The most powerful experience shut down the movement disorder and I was able to experience the same sensations that cause dystonic movements while the illness was unable to figure out how to do its thing. From this place I dug in deep and learned I shake (tremor) because of fear. Fear of pain. I worked on my perception of pain, making it a rule that pain should only serve to show me where something is out of place. These experiences did something drastic to my illness. The pain did not come back the same way, instead it transformed into something actually helpful. That was about a month ago. Everyday it takes less effort to accomplish more and more. Yesterday I deadlifted 300 pounds! For about a week I’ve been thinking I could get a pet time job no trouble now and plan to start putting in applications in about 2 weeks so long as things keep on going the way they have been!

Only one correction: the Tambo is the hut where you sleep at night, the ceremonial Hut is called Maloca. Also, the part of the vine that it’s used is not the bark, but what inside, the core of the vine, which is like smaller vines interwoven as to recreate human DNA

[@adambrot]

we did our ceremonies in the hut where we slept at night, so they were calling it a Tambo. However, I was not aware that it was the core of the vine that was the source of the harmaline, thanks for pointing that out.

[@jeanneratterman]

Without drugs, but through remote viewing protocol meditations and other meditations, I have had some of these experiences, the clarity of vision, the colors, the depth and dimensionality, even the purge effect. One teacher laughingly told me, the 60’s were good to you! But i didn’t use drugs then either. I got information that I could not have, but did. I saw visions of the future, but did not understand them. Only in hindsight did they make complete and accurate sense. My fear held me back from seeking answers at the times, especially regarding the future. The past is not nearly as hard to face when i have strong intention of healing myself. More, I am required to be humble as I see events of the past from other perspectives beyond my own limited memory of them. Innocence, ignorance, misunderstanding, denial of culpability, anger with others, anger with situations prevent clarity. Letting go attachment to what I think or think i remember is another humbling requirement. Also, have compassion for oneself as well as others, no matter what is revealed. This is Earth School 101, lessons upon lessons, and hopefully evolution of spiritual life.

Interesting point. I might tentatively guess that Graham offers more negative criticism and pressure towards the current system and and highlights the immorality of state control over our consciousness'. Whereas Adam Oliver Brown, although taking away negative stigma for psychedelics, and using the language of recreational drugs along with that of science, doesn't have the same impact or far reaching implications.

My question is, how did these people from the Amazon, so long ago discover that mixing two plants together, negates the effect of the intenstines on DMT, and why do our intestines have a defence mechanism against it, but not insects? its a a very fascinating subject for me personally, and i need to find a way to get to Peru and experience this for myself.

[@PetrosGolt]

+tallaganda83 Here is an explanation; people mix drugs together all the time, just check how people today mix different drugs to get a good "high". And to say that our intestine has a defense mechanism against it is a bit simplified. Our intestine is constantly flooded with serotonin and it uses MAO to break it down. Thats why we humans have MAO, why bugs dont have it is a question I cant answer.

[@TomYawns]

+tallaganda83 They discovered it because they were guided by the spirits after going into a trance. They say the plants can communicate with them after they enter a dream-like state which allows them access to the spirit world that presides right alongside ours. Look into some youtube documentaries about Shamans to hear the way they experience life and how they are able to consistently help their fellow villagers. It's the oldest way of life for humans, so my suggestion is to suspend your disbelief for at least while they share their methods and beliefs.

Psylocibin is also a very good plant for your consciousness...i did both here in Brazil... ahyuasca is a stronger experience in every sense, more intense... You people who are paying for ahyuasca be aware of the people who are providing intention. If your shaman has duality in their mind, the trip maybe more unstable. And go to meditation...do something like the vypassana course and do it everyday..ahyuasca can cure, but education and discipline is something for everyday in our lives.. the ill mentality of not seeing we are not separate from nature...and the ill mentallity of wanting to obtain a certain drug ( so you can be happy forever) its ignorance.

Don't let his account make you think you know what Ayahuska is. His account is personal and is different for everyone. Each time you take it is different depending on what you need at that time. It will heal you and make you more whole. It's as if it is reconnecting the fragmented soul that comes from being human. I did it 20 years ago in Brazil and several times since and it changed me for the better in a profound way and showed me what was most important. I stopped because I felt strongly that it was done with me. If you are called to do it and are emotionally stable and strong enough do it. If you have doubts stay away. BTW it was never terrifying for me only very intense in a beautiful and loving way that can't be described. Always do it with an experienced shaman and stay away from commercial hucksters catering to tourists. I've done it both ways. The latter is dangerous.

It's useful, because it'll push you to do positive things in your life, like quitting smoking or drinking, exercising, dieting, meditation, healthy and wholesome living. What ayawaska does is taking you through death and showing that everything is connected. It's scary because it so vast all-inclusive encompassing, dissolving all your boundaries and self-images (that's why it's so absolutely scary, not because of vomiting, although vomiting plays its role too :) It won't solve your problems, but it will definitely show you a totally different outlook on things and yourself. It's not magic, but the closest thing to it.

[@AyahuascaVideos]

Every Ayahuasca experience is personal and unique. Set and setting, positivity of the group and dynamics, quality, experience and intentions of your Shaman, Icaros and quality of the medicines affect the experience. Hearing other people's experiences creates awareness, but doesn't mean you will have the same experience. Seek healing, the truth and authentic Shamanic Healing Journeys, not the promises of visions

Finally, someone used the words that first came into my head when watching this talk..... “Set and Setting “ with Set being your interior mindset at the time, and Setting, which is the exterior around you, place, people etc. so if you are in a bad mood and in a place or location where you don’t feel safe, you are more likely to have a bad trip. If you are in a place of peace and with people you trust, you are more likely to have a good trip. Set and Setting!

I have seen the insects that he was discussing on psilocybin and they were primarily beetles and inside of those beetles, I could make out other patterns. I have even seen the alien archetype. The first time I saw this mental being, I became afraid because it surprised me. It resembles a lotus flower and as I was moving into the mandala, the lotus began to open more and more, inviting me to come closer and closer. I could never get to the lotus being but I found it almost as a game of chase. Very interesting stuff. The most I have taken is 2.2 grams on an empty stomach. I do not think I would go as high as 3.5 even though the heroic dose is always in the back of my mind. These organic chemicals are teaching tools in my opinion. I found that understanding the septenary nature of man as described by the Eastern Mahatmas has helped me tremendously in my experiences. Its as if it connects you directly with your soul and works out things through the vehicles from which the soul controls the body. The constitution of man is described in two sections: A triad that is immortal and moves on from body to body and a lower quarternary that is impermanent. According to the teaching the higher triad consists of: #7. ATMA - The Divine Part #6. BUDDHI - The Spiritual Part #5. MANAS - The Intellectual Part then to the impermanent parts: #4. KAMA - The Passional Part #3. PRANA - The Vital Part #2. LINGA SHARIRA - The Astral Part #1. STHULA SHARIRA - The Physical Part For more information on these, you can read some of Blavatsky's works or Manly P Halls works. Very interesting stuff and even though this could never be proven from a scientific standpoint, it is a framework that allows us to understand our constitution and how we grow and unfold through time.

To usher in new techniques. Really enjoyed the video, thanks.

[@Dc328]

Excellent video!

[@DorothyGTyas]

A wonderfully informative talk❣

[@Josytt]

Everybody who turns 21 in the world should be forced to complete a ayahuasca ceremony or 5-meo bufo toad ceremony. This would allow us to let go of dogmatic religions a lot faster and realize that in the grande scheme of things, religion has little to do with anything.

[@letmeoff6447]

Forced?

[@perezsage6366]

I always hear so many good stories about experiences with ayahuasca but to be honest I am terrified to try because I am convinced that I will have the most traumatizing experience possible and never recover...

[@pedroz3891]

If you drink it with an experienced healer, i'ts quite the opposite! You will heal and forgive your traumas, faults and fears in a profound and loving way!

Great talk, mostly spot on about Ayahuasca, but there is some misinformation. The brewing process is way more complex and ritualistic than that, and the thick Ayahuasca he came across in his ritual is actually a result of a process we call "graduation". The first result of the brewing is actually a very liquid, light brown Ayahuasca. There are a few other inaccuracies there, but great talk!!!

[@duncanbananatyne3890]

Oooh, do they do a little dance around it and blow some smoke on it from their bumhole? wooooooo

[@TruthFreedomFighterZ]

Any thoughts on salvia and out of body experiences ? Do you think it is more intense than ayahuasca? The Aztecs used it.

[@Sardonic1981]

yah! UOttawa, or as I like to call it, University of Zero.....I'm a grad 2004.

[@QUINTUSMAXIMUS]

Whether Ayahuasca is the most potent is debatable. It is definitely powerful. But what about Bufo Alvarius? That is quite powerful, as well, though it's toad medicine, not plant medicine.

[@PhoenixAurelius-138]

Lately, I've really felt drawn to the idea of using psychedelics as tools. After years of therapy and a daily spiritual practice, I feel I've hit a wall. I can't seem to go much deeper. I've also never taken drugs for my anxiety or ADHD because research has led me to believe that they don't work very well and/or have pretty negative side effects. I've done mushrooms once, and it was a beautiful experience, with no side effects other than a stomachache that lasted a couple hours. Might something a little more powerful be in order?

[@francoisrademeyer3235]

I had PTSD, was suicidal and had severe anger issues.... i was advised against it, being in a negative state of mind, but went ahead. it was incredibly hard the first night, i actually walked out, but the guides helped me and i broke through and was healed, enlightened and saved all at once

[@PhoenixAurelius-138]

@@francoisrademeyer3235 that's incredible. I asked a friend of mine if he'd ever consider joining me at a ceremony sometime, but he struggles with ptsd, depression, suicidal tendencies, and he said the same thing: that he'd been medically advised against any psychedelics. It would make everything worse, he said. So he'd rather be on prescription drugs. But I have this strong feeling he would have a similar experience to yours.

[@tblightningbolt8902]

I think people should drink 30 times plus and then wait a few years before they start educating others on ayahuasca. It’s not a cure all. It’s not instant and it’s way to much to process in a short time. Takes years.

[@wasbtf]

i wonder if you'd still see insects if done in a place that doesn't have much bugs like Ottawa, Canada. either way i'm not too found of seeing big bugs and vomiting, but the benefits do seem worthwhile.

[@benjim195]

[@lullemans72]

if someone would be kind enough to answer this question: i've read in the past that people sometimes participate in several ceremonies of ayahuasca. why is this the case? is one single ceremony not enough to change someone's life?

[@lullemans72]

***** thanks for answering. the reason i ask is because i saw a documentary about ayahuasca on (i think) national geographic some time last year. it seemed like the people in the program only did it once.

[@pedroz3891]

​@@lullemans72 After a lot of time, but it may be worth for anyone that reads it from now: Yes, one cerimony can change your life and the way you view the world, but after that you will go back to your life, your routine, your job, the ads, social media...And if you don't work hard to maintain what you have learned, you might fall back to the same life that was making you harm. And Ayahuasca is not only for healing traumas and addiction. It's a tool for self discovery and spiritual growth, wich is infinite. You might want to drink one time to heal a childhood trauma, but another time you might want to work your relationship, your fears, your anxiety... It's a path of growth you can take, drinking ayahuasca responsabily for how long you feel like you need it.

[@JC_Revan]

By taking Ayahuasca, we place our tiny hands in the palm of the Goddess

I hope whoever reads this remembers these words as they come from Medical Medium who receives truth from above. Ayahuasca damages the brain and burns out neurons overtime. Stay safe and protected with the Truth. God bless ❤️
