Toward a Multidisciplinary Approach to Ayahuasca Studies

Toward a Multidisciplinary Approach to Ayahuasca Studies | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it

Ayahuasca had slowly been working its way into the popular awareness of the world outside the Amazon for about twenty years. We can in fact date the beginning of that awareness, with unusual precision, to the 1991 publication of the beautifully produced book Ayahuasca Visions (Luna and Amaringo 1991) a collection of vibrant paintings by former shaman Pablo Amaringo, depicting visions he had received during his years of practice as an ayahuasquero, accompanied by his own explanation of each painting and the annotations of anthropologist Luis Eduardo Luna.

Jerónimo M.M.'s insight:

Steve Beyer does an excellent summary of the arrival of ayahuasca to the mainstream

Bebida de poder inacreditável. A terapeutização da ayahuasca  empobrece a experiência | Ayahuasca News | Scoop.it

Falar de ayahuasca ou beber ayahuasca é, inevitavelmente, adentrar o campo do conhecimento humano ao qual denominamos de religioso. Religião é uma forma de representação do mundo, de concepção do mundo. A religião ajusta as ações humanas a uma ordem cósmica imaginada e projeta imagens da ordem cósmica no plano da experiência.
