My article for the Center for Syncretic Studies on the World Ayahuasca Conference in Ibiza, Spain that just passed. This was the only board besides the intro open to me to post. Moderators are welcome to put it on another board if it is not appropriate here.

Damn. It doesn't surprise me that the world's self-proclaimed elite were represented there. Bothersome nonetheless.

Thanks for your article and insight!

Interesting article Smile

As a complete noob on the subject, I' d like to ask you to expand on why is George Soros and his foundation bad? I really don' t know much at all about him, and the wikipedia article doesnt give many clues to me.

Thanks!

I was looking for an abstract and a summary. Would you mind giving one?

Btw, that's actually the most interesting piece of your article:

Quote:
In March 2014, Grand Ayatollah Rohani formally issued a fatwa (a legal pronouncement of Islam emitted by a religious law specialist) determining that the use of hallucinogens and psychoactive substances is lawful (halal) and, therefore, its use is permitted for Shiite Muslims, under the supervision of qualified experts, and that these botanicals do not damage the mind. Furthermore, the declaration specifically emphasizes not finding objections to the visionary component of these plants, with which people have reported contemplating heaven and hell.

Same here;

what is the deal and why should we be concerned? I read the linked article but I failed to grasp what the fuzz is about.

I first recommend a read of the following article as orientation about what Soros and his ilk are really all about, and then we can get the ball rolling: http://www.swans.com/library/art16/barker51.html

"the Western Ayahuasca community now finds itself in with these big corporate NGO trojan horses entering into the fray and breaching its walls on every side in order to represent the interests of Transatlantic plutocrats such as George Soros; 2) the direct dangers that such developments pose to the future of the Ayahuasca itself as well as to both Mestizo and indigenous communities alike within the Amazon; and 3) the manner in which the globalist Transatlantic polyarchy via organizations such as Soros’ Open Society Foundations is now overtly and quite brazenly positioning itself within the global Ayahuasca sub-culture in order to marshal and ultimately coopt the global Ayahuasca sub-culture en toto for the purposes of its larger Transatlantic economic and geopolitical agendas, whether in South America or beyond it."

Because of both the economic commodification of ayahuasca, and the regulatory systems that have stolen the rights of the individual to act as sovereign beings and make use of entheogens how they see fit, I really feel we need to return to more grass-roots, decentralized folk movements in our approach. It's the only way to avoid being co-opted.

In my article with Nen888 titled "Entheogenic Tryptamines, Past and Present: Folkways of Resilience" I wrote this, and it rally sums up how I feel about the whole issue..

"What entheogenic practice represents, for those within this culture of mounting economic insanity,is a system of folk knowledge reaching back to the earliest traceable evidence for spiritual and religious practice. In our state of disconnection, we suffer a sort of collective trauma, imprinted onto our very sense of identity and mirrored in the world we have created around us. This trauma is what we carry through the world as initiation into the cycle of adulthood. Lacking rites of passage to signify critical points of transformation in our lives, we are left only to express our trauma as
misguided emotional projections and hysteria, leading to profound disconnection that inevitably results in the pillaging of the body to which we owe our own animation—the Earth herself. Through the revival of entheogenic practices, we become like archaeologists of the soul, rediscovering the foundation of unity between the mind, the heart, and the spirit that exemplifies health and harmony in our lives. As we begin to peer into the depths of our own shadows, we see in their wake a trail of tears, shed by our former selves in a desperate cry for attention.

It was not merely the appropriation of imposed cultural ideologies and ways of being that led to the conservation of the traditional folkways of indigenous peoples such as the Mazatecs and Wixaritari(Huichol). It was the relative isolation of these peoples that kept them reliant on land-based ways of life, and the clever shrouding of these ways in the empty shell of the oppressors’ paradigms. Cultural modalities, when exported to exotic places and not integrated into the local ecology in ways
that are self-sustaining, tend to become nothing more than empty projections. In time, they are packaged and consumed by cultures growing ever more removed from the creative roots upon which all people through time have called upon for inspiration, guidance, and sustenance. The empty vessel of appropriated cultural ideologies—commercialized and packaged for increasing economic profit—in a system whose equity lies within an inarguably unsustainable future is, at most, nothing more than a front door out of the cultural paradigm we currently inhabit. Without the resilience of emerging neo-traditions with folk roots, that door can only lead us to a mirror of our own existentially and spiritually bankrupt reflection.

While such self-reflection is necessary to move beyond our current stage, we also require new paradigms to ground us and provide a renewed sense of self-reliance which individuals can draw upon, to then share with the larger community that surrounds them. With a return to our roots, as a currently evolving entheogenic culture rediscovering our past, we can once again find the seed of creation that has been the crux of humanity through the ages…a seed which germinates from the land, yet blossoms in the mind. In the current era of entheogenic revival, forced into the underground through the ongoing cultural genocide waged by dominator culture, a myriad of grassroots neo-folk movements should be considered as the most fertile and resilient modalities for such practices to flourish in a manner that empowers individuals, while still honoring the intact traditions of indigenous peoples."
Long live the unwoke.

A nice read, red sand dune. I share these views in a more general sense though, I have no intimate knowledge of any individuals mentioned. I have difficulty viewing those who have leveraged themselves into positions of political and economic power as having altruistic intentions. Thank you for your vigilance.

Red Sand Dune,

first of all, I'm really glad to see you in the Nexus and I want to join others in giving you a wholehearted welcome to the community.

I worked with ICEERS in the organization of AYA2014, and I had the pleasure of talking to you in a couple occasions during the event. You may remember me and my wife walking with you to your residence near the palace of congresses after the dinner the second day of the conference. She also became friends with a lovely iranian girl who joined us in the event as well.

A couple days ago I had a meeting with the ICEERS crew for the first time after the conference and learned about your new article, which honestly no one saw coming. I cannot talk on behalf of ICEERS, but I can say that participation of all contributors and sponsors appeared crucial to make the event financially feasible, and that the motivation I've seen in every initiative from ICEERS has never suggested in my eyes connivance with globalist agendas. Actually, as you may know, the article in Reality Sandwich about your work and its implications has been a favorite subject of conversation in the group for months. I actually left the conference thinking about ways to stay in the loop of your developments, with or without involvement of ICEERS.

Since I intended to contact you personally to follow up on some ideas we discussed, I really hope your disappointment with the intervention of the Open Society representative (which honestly I cannot comment, because I missed) won't be an obstacle for further contact. I sympathize too much with your sleepless nights giving thought to everything, as I keep giving thought to the consequences of what you achieved.

Sincerely,

Vodsel
