The 2nd Amazonian Shamanism Conference:
A Gathering of Healers and Scientists
Iquitos, Peru, June 30th to July 8th 2006
http://www.soga-del-alma.org/ConferenceSite/
Chinchilejo e.i.r.l. (Dragonfly in Quechua) is sponsoring the 2nd Amazonian Shamanism Conference in Iquitos, Peru. They are hosts to Soga Del Alma (Vine of the Soul) and invited guest illuminary scientists and healers. The scientists and healers (shamans) will be presenting lectures on various Amazonian healing techniques as well as alternative types of natural medicines. The healers (curandero(a)s or shaman) are those that typically use Ayahuasca in order to heal people, reguraly drink the medicina (Ayahuasca) and carry this knowledge with them in order to help other people make contact with the Vine and thereby get the knowledge they need to rebalance their beings, their lives and keep on living wisely, with open eyes on the world.
In it's core, this meeting will allow to make contact with Ayahuasca through curanderos who dedicate their lives to introduce people to it, in the setting they have always been working: the largest forest of the world. This meeting is therefore mainly a meeting with the teacher and healer Ayahuasca in her homeland. There will also be Curanderos who heal with other plants or by other means. Ayahuasca is not going to be the only aspect of this conference; Shamanism will.

Last but not least, apart from the curanderos who will share with us a plant knowledge that is a priori very foreign to us brought up in the western culture, there will also be talks by western intellectuals who share a true interest in the plant wisdom and do their best to translate it in our western words, thereby working to single out the Vine and its use from the western vision that puts on the same level than other drugs. The following special Guests will be with us this summer: Dr. Dennis McKenna, Benny Shanon, Peter Gorman and Alan Shoemaker, Dr. Valentin Hampjes, Dr. Jacques Mabit, Dr. Richard Grossman, Jimmy Weiskopf, Jan Kounen, Kevin Furnace, and many more to be announced. Each speaker will have a specific topic they will discuss. Every traditional healer (curandero, shaman) will also speak independently as well as be a member of the panel discussions.

The Conference will begin with two days-evenings of talks followed by a free day-evening where the participants can tour Iquitos and its surroundings as well as choose to participate in Ceremony with the shaman of their choice. Following this, we are back to the Conference center for two more days-evenings of lecture-discussions and then another day-evening free to do with as you choose, then back to the Conference center again for two more days of Conference events. During the time period of the Conference, there will be three days-evenings free for you to do with as you wish, giving ample time for rest and relaxation the following mornings before the Conference events begin again.
The idea of this meeting originated in our will to meet all the people from the Ayahuasca forums, who help each other to prepare Ayahuasca safely and drink it in appropriate settings, although very far from the Jungle, sincerely trying to learn and transmit the wisdom Ayahuasca bestows on them. Therefore, this meeting is also for all the people from this anonymous internet community. How wonderful for all of these people (us) to meet and put a face on the nicknames and avatars we are used to see on computer screens. How wonderful to get together and share our love for Pachamama's wisdom, where Man has not yet cut all her her beautiful green hair.
This International Amazonian Shamanism Conference: A Gathering of Healers and Scientists is open to Souls of the World - those people sincerely and seriously interested in the knowledge from the Amazon rainforest.
