Iboga vs nothing.....

6/6/2021

Iboga vs Nothing. Apples and oranges, chalk and cheese, this Iboga vs is the new cliche.
Is a dog like a cat?

So in stating the inherently obvious, what could be the motivating force behind someone wanting to create a vs between plant medicine? Firstly, there is no for and against in the universe and this is what plant medicines teach! They are all from the one divine source and this is what their injunction remains. So, back to why we have everyone telling us Iboga vs Ayahuasca. Well, plain and simple, they are trying to make what they have more attractive to you and justify it to themselves as what people need to hear. This strengthens their righteousness, rather innocently even. Iboga teaches that we do not justify or affirm to anyone, that reality is not something to be controlled, it is something to guide us to truth. Strengthening a position for someone else is controlling reality. Personally we have experienced both plants and continue their teaching. Most providers writing about the differences between Ayahuasca and Iboga have only ever had one or the other have not experienced the truth of these plants. In fact, as a student of Bwiti and Iboga I am eternally surprised that within the Iboga world in the west there is constant commentary on what Ayahuasca does without even having experienced the plant themselves. No plant medicine can avail itself to anyone other than the self experiencing it.
Iboga teaches that we listen to what we want to hear from ourselves, not from what others want us to read or hear. Choose that which the heart speaks and healing will fall upon thee. I Bois Sacre, the sacred wood of the divine source through the rites of initiation beginning with rites of confession, honouring of ancestors and building relations with the ancestors frees us from the ideas of the universe being pitted against one another. I bois Sacre Merci.
