Page 1 of 2 Several years ago I became attracted to the ayahuasca temples. It was part of my search to find a doorway into the mirror worlds. Aya' is a sacred brew from the Amazon used by the shamans as a medicine and also for awareness.
The main component of the ayahuasca brew (DMT) is found naturally in the body, so while governments like to insist it's a drug, most people consider ayahuasca a sacrament, albeit a powerful one. In Brazil it is legal and there it forms part of the ceremonies of the Santo Daime church. In some countries like Switzerland, Holland, and Australia it is semi-legal; in so much as there aren't any seizures of the brew.
In America, where the doctors and the big pharmaceutical companies have everyone under tight control, everything is illegal, but the UDV another ayahuasca church, have won several court cases against the government and the DEA (see below). So in the States ayahuasca rests in limbo for the moment with the legal position still rather unclear.
The Aya' vine has an intelligence of its own. If you take one journey and you wait a year before you take another, the ayahuasca knows where you left off, and it picks up from there. Aya' rest in a rotation through a hyperspace of super knowing, and that knowing has a curriculum of its own. I have the deepest respect for it. I see it as the university of the mother-goddess; the manifestation of the feminine spirit teaching us about her world.
Just as the fractal pictured here is a mathematical drawing of the spaces between our three dimensions, the goddess Aya' carries you into that same transdimensional gap. Imagine going into this fractal–pick any spot. As you go deeper and deeper, there are more and more fractal pictures, one inside the next. You might be looking at only a few square inches of a picture whose total size could be as large as the entire universe.
