Short thoughts

The Root of Iboga

14/4/2022

 
After Iboga you become deeply rooted in creaturehood, ready to embrace a new living experience. There is brilliance to be enfolded in every life. We are entwined with our spiritual heritage but the focus has to be here in the physical. Iboga allows you to perceive other fields of reality, allowing a connection to your soul so that you can heal and enrich your life.

To be joyous in life, is to be spiritual! This means you understand the purpose of living a physical existence. Without a doubt, that is what we are all doing now, so find joy.

The purpose of Iboga is to expose your truth.

27/9/2021

 
The purpose of Iboga is to expose your truth. You can’t hide from Iboga. Although people try to control their experiences, it’s virtually impossible. You will fail miserably and suffer the consequences. Iboga is a spirit that deserves respect.
​
Many people facilitating this ancient experience believe they can offer it without the presence of God and Spirit. Bwiti is God. Iboga is Spirit. You are a mere human with no power over anything. A Nganga is someone who has been graced with Spirit inside them to help in the process of the experience.

The experience is the presence of God. When people try to offer a program that is not in line with this, they are saying they know more than God and Spirit. This simply demonstrates the vastness of their ego.

You are not God. You are not Spirit. You are mortal.

Bow down to the power of Spirit and be grateful to be in the presence of God.

​-- Makonza (Bwiti Canada))

The labyrinthine nature of Iboga

24/9/2021

 
The labyrinthine nature of Iboga unfies subatomic, atomic, cellular, alchemical, biological and psychological processes within us. This propensity to organise is what cannot be seen and what cannot be known in the physical realm. With or without iboga our physical experience depends upon these complexities. So what is Iboga teaching? Well exactly this, that our existence is dependent upon and happens because of these infinite computations of the ever unfolding whole of which we are enveloped. Iboga makes us aware of this organisation. That we are more than a physical shell, wishing away life and waiting for the inevitable decay of the physical realm that holds us. It seeks to make us FEEL the infinite complexities that bind processes of mind and matter without the explanations we offer, such as this one in its ironic expression.

Use Iboga to focus in the spiritual realm and heal.

"Progress has nothing to do with time, you see, but with psychic and spiritual focus. Each play is entirely different from any other. It is not correct, therefore, to suppose that your actions in this life are caused by a previous existence, or that you are being punished in this life for crimes in a past one. The lives are simultaneous." —Seth Speaks, Session 521Use Iboga to focus in the spiritual realm and heal.

Bwiti is God

19/9/2021

 
​If you are with dis ease, you are with resistance within the mind. The mind is you, your thought is yours to choose and to use, to navigate your experience. When we take others' ideas and experiences we lose our own. mind stays in control and collects experience, keeping us imprisoned. Spirituality and truth is obtained when we learn to change our attitude to mind, to recognize we are it, that we drive it, fuel it, nurture it, embody it. Through this process of Iboga we become sovereign, we connect to God. Bwiti is God. 

Iboga is your tool

17/8/2021

 
There is much information on the internet about Iboga these days. it used to be more of a mystery. There is information on the chemical processes, scientific studies, testimonials, what's in it? what are the alkaloids? How does it affect me? - everyone has their own outlook, their experience, and you can get lost in all the (dis)information. It's not necessary.
The way I see it, some people like to know how a car works, the engine, the motor, the physics of it all, but for me, I need to get moving, I need to jump in the car and head off to a new place. A new experience. I don´t need to know the machinations. I want what I am creating by moving forward, in the process. The car is a tool to go somewhere else.
Let Iboga be your tool and do not get caught up in all the information that is out there. Look towards your experience. Stop looking outside of the self. In the end it's just another perspective. Everyone is saying it…….. its you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you! Are you the you that you think you are, or is the you inside being blocked by the camouflage you created. Either way it's a win-win situation as you created it, you create it now, and the camouflage, the blockages you created them also and you can fix it. So no need to worry. Bueno Noticias. Let's get started here http://www.ikararetreat.com/iboga.html

Everything Exists

17/8/2021

 
if you are searching for something in your life, then this presupposes that it already exists. You cannot seek something that does not exist. Therefore, there is no need to worry, just keep working on yourself and be quietly confident all will come to fruition. #Iboga can #help you in this #process.

Thought, process, action .....everything exists in your biological, psychological and electrical realities.

A Creating Universe

1/8/2021

 
Everyday I read amazing books written by philosophers, physicists, yogis & psychics coming from seemingly disparate origins, in very different times, different societies and backgrounds. Comparatively, they all speak of the same concepts in their own way, these are the great thinkers. I am lucky to be able to sit here, in this time, and see this union of material in the modern age. It is reassuring to me and confirming to see how this reinforces the concept that everything originates from the one source. The same teachings emerge without conditional restraints.

The spiritual realm exists but we do not see it. To avoid getting caught in physical structures, we need to be reminded that other realities exist now unconstrained by space and time. If you seek proof, plant spirits such as Iboga, allow you to commune with your inner self when taken as intended through tradition, ethic and love. It must be done soon, before everything is watered down and people turn around and say that “positive thinking didn't work” or the “plant medicines” don't work. You need proof (other than the obvious one), that you create your reality, connection to other realms of existence can be the signal to startle your thinking processes into new creative structures and to bring to fruition that which you want in this physical life. There is a biological, psychological and electrical component to every belief, action, emotion and thought.

This is a creating universe not a created one (Walter Russel) . That is the beauty of life here.
​
So we should all start living and if you are not living, Iboga can help rattle your cage until you can see this beauty again. Iboga has the reputation of not being the gentlest of #plantspirits, this is because it speaks to you physically first, your ego is always present (but not in control) and it can learn to listen to the inner self. Iboga can go further. Iboga may not seem as “accessible” as other teachers, but it is only different. It is safely earthed, Iboga is loving & magically tailor-made and hence this is why it becomes so effective in curing these modern day maladies which are all formed first in the psychological realm. Connect to your inner senses and recognize the #eternalvalidityofthesoul through IBOGA.

To Find Spirit

31/7/2021

 
To find spirit, to merge with Iboga and be guided to the nexus of your soul, you do not need to have a trauma to qualify your experience. Trauma is not an inevitability in spirit, therefore you do not need to find something that you will inevitably find within an infinite experience of the self which is you. We are infinite beings and within us we contain all experience within an infinite ever unfolding whole of which there is no beginning or end to our identities. This is what Iboga and Bwiti is. A showing of life beyond death, not a morbid fixation on trauma and its seemingly illusory inevitability. Iboga shows you create and project experience according to total volition, that you live beyond death and that your physically sensed traumas are the souls construct to motivate us to become more and realise that we create even our traumas.
Knowing this, Sure, Iboga will show you your traumas if this is what you want, you could also transcend the fixation to realise with the ancestors guidance that the traumas are mere distractions on your way to finding immortality which delivers one firmly above any idea of negativity and supposed happenings that torment the individual on the physical plane.
​
If one wants to progress with Iboga, Bwiti, Nganga and Spirit and do this with lasting effervescence, realise the trauma show is just level 1 of infinite levels, so don't dwell here, this is just something you created to move into true knowing. This is a roadblock to the soul as you have maybe experienced in the physical experience. Know you create now so Iboga can move you to death then life again, the place where the ancestors reside amongst the dimensions of the self, this is the goal to ensure you transcend illusion forever. Your addiction, your trauma, your afflictions are mere speed humps, they are just the dangling carrot to get you to death and beyond, to where you live forever. Move past, move through, get out of the way of your self, you have had your chance here physically, if you are still suffering, get out of the way, let Iboga take you to the boss, to you where you remain immortal above and beyond pain. Arrive in the land of the co creating, work upon self, become the only true self that one may, live here and now in the physical, God dressed as the individual, doing the work, serving spirit. Iboga. Bwiti. Nganga. Ikara

Collective Wisdom is the Death of Knowledge

22/7/2021

 
Collective wisdom is the death of knowledge. Let us express without want and without concern for the perceptions outside of ourselves, and let people bind to one another through love without static. Not creating from the point of self, not doing your work and constantly externalising someone else's wisdom is denying energetic accuracy between souls and induces slave master mentalities, the polarity becomes the prison, the new discourses that remain possible do not develop. It becomes that one assumes one has lots of knowledge because one passes on someone else's.

No plant can work with someone who continues to further the collective cause and avoids the self. If you have explored the entheogenic plant world and have had these supposed medicines more than twice without the above realisations, this should be enough of an indicator that they will not make a stupid person smarter. Rather, they will reward a soul willing to work and courageous enough to stand alone.
​
No spirit says this more than Iboga as experienced through Bwiti spirit, as long as we get out of the way and listen to the life giving force without ego we will actively return to liberation. Constant ceremonies with plant medicine is the signal that something is awry and a blockage of great magnitude existent.

No Man owns Spirit

25/6/2021

 
When we seek to control, when we use the abundant energy gifted us from spirit to control desire we desire to prevent energy from manifesting truth. Why does any man seek control of another? It is too often framed within concern, but even here, concern is an attempt to control presupposed of fear, doubt and illusion. God knows no such limits and Iboga knows only to gift vision of the eye to those whom relinquish control of man. Control is the beginning of the closing aperture of vision, a generated self perpetuating state of myopia that drives one to attempt to use the eyes of another man to see as vision leaves the controller. I gift myself back to god, to spirit in reciprocity of the ever enduring offering of love that transcends the frailties of the fearful. We serve soul, no one owns another, no man owns spirit, no man owns Iboga, no man owns culture, no man owns anything. Man inhabits, connects with and becomes all things. Our sensing is changing all the time but our knowing remains unchanged. LOVE crushes FEAR, it brings it back to balance, to the bosom of its origin in LOVE. Thank you Iboga, thank you Bwiti. Thank you to all those whom believe and do not. We are all one.
