love it!

I've done a few lower world and a few upper world, I am more comfortable with the lower world. I've not gone too deep but I have had some interesting experiences - more in the lower world - where my power animals rock up.

I love the beat of the drums. And the call of the hills and the fields and the trees - that call us to travel up or down. Or, to the middle world.

I've had people journey for me and that is awesome.

I love doing it! ive got my own sacred garden there. and my own guarden which my owl protects while am in physical reality

In my path, it is called Striding the Hedge. Experiences ? - many ! The most powerful are on Samhain Eve - the Celtic Day of the Dead. It is far from being exclusive to Amerinds - common right across northern Europe and Asia at least as far back as the Ice Age.

Hi iScorpio, I have had the pleasure of living Seminars with a Peruvian Shaman. We were introduced, initiated to the Spirit World.

First Seminar, we were introduced to the objectives of the night. We were in a special setting, a very large tent, we were 50+ persons, there were three group of musicians, and there was a pattern to follow. We were instructed on how we should conduct ourselves during the proceeding. We were sitting confortably with all the necessary things you need during the Seminar. The Seminar started at 22h and ended at 5h in the morning.

And then, we were invited to drink the Sacred Vine Ayahausca (stimulate DMT on the Pineal gland). Before we started, we had to have an intention to attained, achieved during the Seminar.

The mixture of the Sacred Vine is such that your body will purge and the purpose of purging is to allow one to get rid of block emotions, get rid of traumatic events, get rid of difficult situations emotions. Each time one purge, he/she ask the Sacred Vine to let go of a particular hindering emotions. Now, before purging, one feel pretty bad, and it's where music come in to help you through it.

In between purging, one went in thoughts on different journey (effects of the Sacred Vine) that are in line with their intention/s to start with. I had the pleasure of meeting spirits that I didn't knew. At time, it was as a dream. At often time, I would open my eyes, and I was astound to see, feel spirits near people helping them. Most of the participants cried, some of joy, other of relieve, other of peace. It was a very, very profound experience.

In the first Seminar (I went through 5), I thought I would died, and sure enough, a part of me died, my ego took a blow, my preconcieved notion that I was in control of the situation, and I wasn't! The remaining Christian Beliefs System, within me, was flushed.

I had a life without drugs, so this mind altering Sacred Vine was SACRED for me. I repeated it 4 other time, purging was reduced to almost nothing, I have had great journey, we also went to Perou for a few other Seminars.

I would suggest similar Shamanic experience to anyone in search of enlightenment.

If one need more information, Graham Hancock went through many Ayahausca experiences with a Shaman, and he posted his comments on YouTube.

The best to everyone.
