Traditional Bwiti
Iboga Immersion Retreat
with Nganga MAKONZA
Engage your soul with a true Iboga immersion experience. This 5 day 4 night experience follows African teachings with strong ancestral lineage. We come to Iboga to heal and this condensed experience that keeps our grouping together, follows the traditional way of administering iboga utilised in initiation in Africa.
This is all about the work, the truth, bridging the gap between soul and self without the distractions of the outside world. The waterfalls, beaches and activities can wait, these will happen and happen in new brilliance once you have immersed and met the soul to bring about the ultimate resolution. These are for the end of our retreat. Makonza is a journeyman of Bwiti teaching and of the highest caliber both here and in Gabon. His tutelage is years in the making and his lifelong dedication to the art of Iboga and Bwiti teaching is unparalleled in the west. The spiritual strength of the Black Panther lineage is accessible through his spiritual connection and ensures the strongest of protection for all those seeking freedom and emancipation from the illusion of Dis ease.
Iboga knows of no discrimination in its healing capacity and Makonza´s conductivity of spirit and Iboga has alleviated hundreds of souls on their journey to realise the truth within all. You come to Iboga for another chance, for redemption of self. It awaits and we feel more than ever that our immersion experience is the most accurate way of experiencing the self in its communication with the soul. We do not sell pretty images and ideas, this is not what you need. Healing by speaking with our souls is what we need and this exists through strong spirit, protection and guidance. Join us in becoming yourself. |
