I wanted to share about my first experience of Kambo. Though I have had some experiences with other medicines, I had never heard of Kambo before the other week. I was introduced to Raymond and the work through a trusted friend. Everything lined up for me to participate and so I did. Before I even had heard of the medicine or decided to do it, the Spirit of Kambo was with me, bringing dreams. The night before the Ceremony I had a very powerful experience where a childhood friend came to me. I had thought about this person off and on for years but was never able to get any more information..until that evening when I discovered something terrible had befallen him several years earlier. I had no idea why after years of not being able to get any information it would all of a sudden open up...Then I remembered....We saved frogs together as boys. We would rescue them after it rained and they had gotten trapped in basement window wells..... That was how the experience started for me, on the inner planes before I had even heard of it, it was calling me. Since then, my experience has been deep. My intention was to let go of addictions and habituation specifically in regards to tobacco. I had gotten in wrong relationship with this very powerful medicine plant and was injuring myself through my disregard of appropriate use. I actually had no plan for how or when I would right this situation, just a prayer. My physical experience with Kambo was intense, though perhaps not as intense as some others. The interesting thing was what happened after. I recognized another habit of mind that I have, the ability to make even the most profound experience mundane and commonplace. After the Ceremony, instead of just picking up my day and filling my space with whatever, I went home and chose to be in a more prayerful state. The way it was presented to me in my inner world was something like this " you have just participated in an ancient healing ritual, preserved for millennia by our indigenous selves and delivered to you here in this modern world by the calling of your Spirit. How could this be just another day..and if you treat it that way, whats the point ? " That has been the psycho/spiritual grounding since the ceremony. That this is an amazingly powerful time calling forth amazingly powerful people being given amazingly powerful medicine tools to use to remember with and reclaim our lives and return to balance with our Mother Earth. Without planning to do so, I have been tobacco free since Saturday
