PT540 – Ancestral Teachings for the Psychedelic Renaissance, with Alonso Del Río & Francisco Rivarola
Manage episode 435240242 series 2476237
As the psychedelic renaissance continues to spread throughout the West, we learn more about these substances and experiences every day. But are we losing the important ancestral teachings and Indigenous knowledge that got us here?
In this episode, Kyle interviews Alonso Del Río: author, musician, filmmaker, founder of the Center for Healing and Consciousness Studies (Ayahuasca Ayllu), and facilitator with 45 years of experience largely under the framework of the Shipibo tradition.
Together with translator, Francisco Rivarola, they have developed a course called “Ancestral Teachings for the Psychedelic Renaissance,” which aims to be both an honoring of knowledge that has safeguarded these traditions, and a bridge between that wisdom and our Western frameworks, teaching ancestral traditions (largely Shipibo and Incan-Peruvian), the roles and function of dietas, the less talked-about dangers of brujeria (witchcraft), holistic frameworks for dealing with mystical experiences, and the connection between spirituality and responsibility towards nature. The course features 20 hours of Del Río’s teachings (with subtitles) and is the first time they’ve been made available to the general public.
He talks about:
- The importance of following guidelines when working with ayahuasca, and how Westerners often don’t respect the rigor required to do it right
- The different types of healers in the Shipibo tradition, from good and bad to the “Ascended Master,” who transcends physical limits and is incapable of causing harm
- The potential for ayahuasca to be weaponized, how often this happens, and the risks for Westerners who aren’t aware
- How the consciousness level of a person can be related to the emotions that that person allows themselves to have
- How the expansion of consciousness is healing in itself
and more!
