This Study Uncovered Common Words That Appear to Have Survived from a Mother Language That Existed During the Last Ice Age | The Daily Grail

This Study Uncovered Common Words That Appear to Have Survived from a Mother Language That Existed During the Last Ice Age | The Daily Grail | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it
We are all aware of similarities in words between different languages, and also how much some words vary between cultures separated both in time and location. Often it is the most common words in a language that retain a strong similarity to their origin languages: for instance, the English word brother and the French frère are derived from words in ancient languages: the Sanskrit bhrātr and the Latin frāter. It is obvious, therefore, that the distinctive sound of a word can remain associated with the same meaning for thousands of years. But how far back in time can we go to find common words?

Takiwasi - Tales from the world » Affected lifes 

Takiwasi - Tales from the world » Affected lifes  | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it

La Ayahuasca no crea ninguna dependencia y exige “pagar el precio” para acceder al conocimiento. Esa exploración de las profundidades de lo invisible personal, colectivo y transpersonal requiere coraje, perseverancia y humildad. Solicita una alta cuota de sufrimiento y exigencia, la confrontación con el ego y los miedos más profundos como una especie de “suero de la verdad”. Es nada menos que lúdico. Abre las puertas a una vivencia mística de contacto directo con el mundo espiritual que conduce a una encarnación cotidiana con el sufrimiento del otro y el desarrollo de una compasión activa. No es una droga en el sentido popular de la palabra pero como cualquier cosa de la creación, aun las más sagradas, puede transformarse en instrumento de poder, de inflación del ego en vez de ampliación de la consciencia. Todo depende de la actitud interior, la sinceridad, la humildad, y de un uso guiado y correctamente ritualizado. La Ayahuasca “enseña el camino” pero no lo recorre a nuestro lugar… sin invertir en lo cotidiano, sin seguir las indicaciones y las reglas ancestrales de uso, como toda medicina se puede transformar en veneno, y en este caso un veneno del alma.”

Jerónimo M.M.'s insight:

I've always been a big follower of światosław's blog and his travels around the world of ayahuasca. He passed by Takiwasi and did a beautiful portrait of the place

Painting - “Templo Sacrosanto” by Pablo Amaringo

There are a number of human experiences — I am thinking of such things as hallucinations, lucid dreams, visions, out-of-body experiences — that are characterized by presentness, detail, externality, and three-dimensional explorable spacefulness. We can call these visionary experiences. Such visionary experiences appear to be a central and consistent component of shamanism generally — most prominently, for example, in the ayahuasca shamanism of the Upper Amazon

Manuel Hipólito de Araújo (10.06.1921 – 17.08.2000), o Velho Pastor | | Jornal Grande Bahia – JGB | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it
Manuel Araújo, o Velho Pastor Com dificuldades no seu casamento, problemas de alcoolismo, tabagismo e jogatina, Manuel Hipólito de Araújo muito sofria e desejava mudar de vida. Certa manhã, passando pela porta da Catedral de Nossa Senhora de Nazaré (Rio Branco-Acre), rogou a Deus por uma luz, um conforto, e quem roga com firmeza, amor e fé obtêm a resposta Divina. Foi levado por um amigo de trabalho — Edson Castelo Branco — para conhecer Mestre Daniel Pereira de Mattos. No dia 3 de outubro de 1956 Manuel Araújo foi recebido pelo Mestre, a quem contou toda a sua situação, sendo encaminhado por ele até o Altar da Igrejinha para que rezasse a São Francisco das Chagas. Neste dia bebeu Daime pela primeira vez. Em miração recebeu esclarecimentos sobre a sua vida e ali começou o seu preparo para cumprir importante compromisso dentro da Missão de Frei Daniel. Nos mistérios da Santa Doutrina ele foi consagrado Frei Manuel (10.06.1921 – 17.08.2000), o nosso Velho Pastor. Testifica Manuel

I lay down on the floor, on a comfortable mattress in the center of the room. And I waited. And waited. Eyes closed, I began to see things: patterns of light and energy moving in time with the music. This continued for about half hour, and then a thought came to my mind: "This is too much." ... nd then, something miraculous. I heard, as though from outside myself and within myself at once, a soft voice.
