Facts about the ayahuasca in Peru

Ayahuasca in Peru is a sacred brew that everyone should experience and take advantage of the multiple benefits in the spiritual, physical, and emotional states. The brew is provided on a pre-determined agreement that he/she needs the help of the mother Ayahuasca, this approach is important to underline, the brew in Peru is provided to the participant for healing purposes not with psychedelic intentions. The Shamanic vine spirit or rope of death is a female energy that receives the individual as it comes, with their fears, and issues and cuddles them as a mother providing a rebirth perception.

Ayahuasca vine & Chakruna: Ayahuasca is made by combining 2 master plants and water: the Ayahuasca vine (Banisteriopsis caapi), the vine looks very much like a rope hanging from different emergent trees in the rainforest, and the leaves of the Chacruna plant (Psychotria viridis DMT), the plant looks more like shrubs and the leaves are similar to the Coca leaves but bigger.

How is the Ayahuasca collected and prepared; Ayahuasca in Machu Picchu, the thickest Ayahuasca vines are collected in the rainforest by the knowledgeable locals, in most cases they have to hike into the depths of the rainforest, identify the vines, chop them, and cart them in sacks. Then the vines and the Chacruna leaves will just boil on fire for nearly 24 hours, until they have the thick essence Ayahuasca.

DMT and altered states: The active ingredient in ayahuasca is DMT (N,N-Dimethyltryptamine). We often say that Ayahuasca is the book and the DMT is the torch. At a ceremony, the participant can feel different stimuli at once, among them are; mild to extreme feelings of euphoria, connectedness to the universe, love and empathy, and profound life-changing spiritual experiences/realizations/thoughts. Sense of inner peace and acceptance of self, others, and the world. Strong visions, auditory hallucinations / sound distortions; visual “noise” Feeling sleepy / yawning. Sedation, altered sense of space and time.

If you drink only the Ayahuasca vine without the Chakruna (DMT): The participant will only weep and have not the healing or visionary effects, the Ayahuasca and Chakruna are always boiled together in order to collect the desired Ayahuasca concoction.
