The Amazon jungle holds many secrets, one of which is a drink with a thousand-year history - ayahuasca. “Spirit Vine” - no one will remember how the Indians of Peru combined 2 plants: chacruna and ayahuasca vine, but for more than 6 thousand years, Amazonian curandero healers have been treating not only physical problems, but how they also claim mental illness.
A decoction that contained the “spirit molecule” 1000 years before humanity learned of the existence of not only DMT (dimethyltryptamine), but also molecules as such. Ayahuasca, yahe, daimyo and 39 other less popular names, none of which are able to convey the power contained in this drink. Technically, it is a decoction of the “spirit vine” (Banisteriopsis caapi) and chacruna (Psychotria viridis or Diplopterys cabrerana) that takes a person on a psychedelic journey lasting 4 to 6 hours. Essentially, this is a drink that allows you to interact with the spirit of the “maestro” Banisteriopsis caapi, see the true essence of things, heal the mind and body, find answers to any questions and achieve what is commonly called enlightenment.
Ayahuasca was discovered by the Quechua, one of the indigenous peoples of the Amazon, who were ahead of the Mayans and Aztecs in cultural and state development. They carried the magic of this decoction through the centuries and are still faithful to Pachamama (Mother Earth) and vegetarian traditions. Neither the spears of the conquistadors, nor the fires of the Jesuit inquisitors, nor propaganda, nor the state machines that banned the sacred drink in almost all countries broke them. Select people from all over the world travel a long way to the Amazon jungle to undergo a ceremony with a real shaman.
