What is love?

What is 'practicing violence to no end' , to what extent have you really studied the violence in those tribes, the contextual aspects, etc?

Can aggression in some ways and contexts, be a part of a greater expression of Love? Alternatively, can 'being/doing good' be actually against Love in some cases ?

When you say 'love is the law' (or 'not the law' ) , who's law are you talking about?

Can shamanic cultures be generalized and talked about as a singular coherent entity?

Does it matter what some or other shaman or culture does or does not do, for your path?

I can't stop thinking about the fact that there are some South American tribes that partake in ayahuasca, yet still propagate violence to no end. I also can't stop thinking about the fact that some religions of our ancestors partook in both psychedelics and human sacrifice. If love requires you to tear open your fellow man's chest and pull out his heart as an offer to the gods, is it still love?


No it is participation in that particular cultural hallucination!
