First people communities are the early groups of hunter gatherers, herders, and the oldest human lineages of Africa, some migrating from as far as East Africa to settle across southern Africa, in countries like Namibia, Botswana and South Africa. In First People: The Lost History of the Khoisan, archaeologist Andrew Smith, who has excavated at some of the richest prehistoric heritage sites across Africa and has a career spanning 50 years, examines what we know about southern Africa's early people, drawing on evidence from archaeological sites, rock art, the observations of colonial-era travellers, linguistics, study of the human genome, and the latest academic research. Full of illustrations, First People is an invaluable and accessible work that reaches from the Stone Age and travels through time to the most recent history of the Khoisan. Smith, who has studied the history and prehistory of the Khoisan throughout his long and distinguished career, paints a knowledgeable and fascinating portrait of their land occupation, migration, survival, culture, and practices.

Recorded under the starry expanse of the Okavango Delta at Gomoti Plains Lodge in Botswana, this audio captures a rare and mesmerizing moment of cultural and natural heritage. Gathered around a crackling fire, the lodge's staff performs traditional songs for their guests passed down through generations of Bushmen and Okavango communities. Their voices rise and fall in harmony, interwoven with the ambient sounds of firewood crackling and the symphony of the delta's nocturnal wildlife. I feel that this audio is a living tapestry of human and natural connection—a heartfelt tribute to the Okavango's unique cultural and sonic heritage.

The Seworoworo or commonly known as the Mouth Bow, is one of the world's oldest instrument, originally invented by the Bushmen. I really feel lucky that I had the chance to record it right at the very heart of the Okavango Delta in Botswana. The instument is played by Tango, a young man from the Delta. Birds sing during his playing as well. This instrument has a palm-leaf string that is made to vibrate by rubbing a stick across notches cut in the bow stave. This action produces a rhythmic whirring sound in addition to the echo sounds made by Tango 's mouth when he gently blows the string. These very grounded and primitive sounds are truly wonderful and so unique in the sound world heritage. I feel that this is an enchanted sound world rediscovered.

Rupert is the creative force behind Horse Boy, Rowan is his mentor, teacher and muse. Together all aspects of Horse Boy begin and from there the wider team helps to develop each aspect.Rupert Isaacson was born in 1967 in London to a South African mother and Zimbabwean father, and grew up half in London, half on a remote horse farm in the British countryside and also with Africa looming large in his life. Coming from a family of pioneers and adventurers – Russian Jews who went to Africa on his father's side, British, Dutch and mixed race settlers on his mother's side – Rupert's grandparents were journalists, war correspondents, cattle ranchers and artists. His father is an architect and his mother a sculptor.So making your own destiny is something he grew up with. A journalist for the British and American press from the early 1990s (Daily and Sunday Telegraph, Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday, Independent on Sunday, Esquire, National Geographic, Conde Nast Traveller – among others), he has also published several guidebooks to Africa and India, and is he author of three non-fictional memoirs: The Healing Land (a New York Times Notable Book), which tells the story of his family in Africa, and of his own time spent living with the Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert; The Horse Boy (a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller), which tells the story of his journey across Mongolia on horseback with his autistic son Rowan; and The Long Ride Home, which tells of the three subsequent healing journeys he and his son made to Africa, Australia and the Navajo Reservation, as well as his discovery of how horses can help autism and special needs in general.Rupert also runs the Horse Boy Foundation, from his New Trails ranch near Austin, Texas, which offers services to autism families, and helps direct several satellite centers offering similar services in North America and Europe.In partnership with Iliane Lorenz he also teaches Horse Boy Method, Horse Boy Learning (a homeschool technique aimed at autism, ADD and ADHD families among others), and other kinetic learning techniques, along with Stress Free Dressage, a way of introducing riders to the higher levels of equitation without being screamed at(!).A successful documentary filmmaker – The Horse Boy and Endangerous – and write and conceiver of reality TV shows (The Quest – which aired on ABC in 2014 – was his original concept and he helped produce the show), and in addition his mainstream Hollywood projects include The Horse Boy feature film and The Goth Lords.A career in human rights runs parallel to all this. In 2004 he founded the Indigenous Land Rights Fund, which helps hunting and gathering tribes gain legal title to their ancestral land and which helped the Bushmen of Botswana win the largest land claim in African history in 2006 – as a result of which he is now banned from Botswana (!).Finally there is his first love – horses both cross country riding, and classical dressage (he works closely with the Valenca Family in Portugal and studies with Christian Bachinger of the Spanish Riding School of Vienna). A small time breeder of Lusitano horses, Rupert relaxes by reading historical novels, planting trees and drinking beer, especially IPAs. He quite likes wine too. And food.Connect with Rupert:info@ntls.cohttps://ntls.cohttps://longridehome.comhttps://athena-equine.com/https://kidsmustmove.com/https://horseboymethod.com/YouTube: Send us a message.

Season 1, Episode 36, Release Date: 6-30-2024 Robert Falconer and the Others Within Us Robert Falconer is defintely a hero of mine. He has written many enlightening books that include "The Others Within Us" and his latest (hot off the presses) "When You're Going Through Hell... Keep Going." Find out more about Bob here: www.robertfalconer.us He combines trauma healing and spirituality in his work-- which has been involved with for over 50 years! Through grace, he has always found himself motivated to heal his own trauma. This has led him into the field of helping others in their journey to heal trauma. He incorporates wisdom from a diversity of cultures. He spoke about Owen Barfield, the less famous friend of CS Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. Dr. Barfield explored participation with our external reality, and how this got cut off around the time of ancient Greece. Western psychology is seen by some as colonization of the mind, which rose alongside imperialism. Is there a way to bring back spirituality to this? We spoke about how IFS does this, "to some degree." However, the 8 C's seem to stop short of some important Self qualities, such as: Luminosity Transcendence Radiance We spoke about how graduate schools seem content with the 8 C's-- particularly "calm" Indeed, much of the Western world (myself included) doesn't understand why this is limited... that is until hearing Bob speak about spirituality. To understand a different kind of spiritual understanding, Bob invited me (and the audience) to think about the Sans people, Bushmen of the Kalahari. Their spirituality is high energy, it is esctatic dancing. They get spiritual energy by moving! Looking around (particularly in most therapy offices), Bob fears that we banish esctatic spirituality in this society. Perhaps one way to bring this back is through a pschedelic renaissance. Bob feels that we should be focused on generative change. Unlike counteractive change, gernative change happens when we plant seeds, and allow for contious transformation of a system, which becomes self-sustaining. Bob invites us to learn more from the non-Western cultures. We spoke about how to help prepare someone for a psychodelic experience, and Bob shared how this is multi-layered. He stressed the need for permission from the entire system. We spoke about how psychedelics seem to address rumination of a system. Bob shared that he doesn't believe people can heal from trauma without some form of spirituality or meaning of their world. To him, each moment can be a doorway into eternity, if we can appreciate the present moment. We can do this by pausing when we find ourselves experiencing awe, wonder, joy. This is a way to respect our own existence. We spoke about the definition of "mental health" and how our society puts these people in boxes that become extremely limiting. Instead, these people just might be the visionaries, who need more of a compassionate container. Again, we can find beautiful models of this if we look to other societies that have been able to do this more effectively than we have.

Welcome to "The Edge of Wilderness," a profound journey into the heart of nature and the depths of the human soul. In this compelling episode, Angell Deer sits down with Sarah West, a remarkable individual whose life's work is as diverse as it is impactful. Sarah, who calls the wild beauty of Moab, Utah, her home, is not just a therapist but a guide, artist, writer, and a voice that bridges the gap between us and the natural world. Sarah West's unique approach combines her vast knowledge and experience in trauma healing, somatics, mindfulness, nature therapy, and soul work with her academic background in archaeology and human evolutionary ecology. Her immersion in indigenous wisdom traditions enriches her practice, allowing her to offer deeply rooted insights into the connection between healing and the wilderness around us. In this episode, you'll discover how Sarah's experiences with indigenous communities across the globe, including time spent with the Bushmen and Australian Aboriginals, have shaped her understanding of our bond with nature. Through her tales of exploration in Moab's red rock deserts, ancient cave rituals, and her sacred art of photography, Sarah invites us to consider our own relationships with the natural world and the forgotten wisdom it holds. In this episode, you'll explore: * The Essence of Sarah West's Work: A poignant blend of trauma healing, somatics, mindfulness, nature therapy, soul work, depth psychology, wilderness vigils, and expressive arts, informed by her extensive academic background and immersion in indigenous wisdom traditions. * Living in Harmony with Nature: Sarah's life in Moab, Utah, a place of red rock deserts and national parks, provides a stunning backdrop for her healing and creative endeavors.

This is episode 152, we're going to dig into a story that is not often told — the amaTola San raiders of the Drakensberg. They emerged by the end of the third decade of the 19th Century as a result of a mish-mash of forces at play on the veld. And what a remarkable story this is so hold onto your horses! Literally as it would appear. What has been re-discovered recently is the identification of a plethora of mounted frontier raiding groups and how these had impacted the interior of Southern Africa, and in particular, the mountains north-east of the Cape Colony. Certain frontier raiding groups often referred to simply as ‘Bushmen' were really comprised of members from many formerly distinct ethnicities, and included the progeny from subsequent inter-marriage. Cultural and ethnic mixing, the advent of the horse, the increased access to guns and ammunition, and the need for identity to adapt to these changes, resulted in a volatile mix indeed. There were freed slaves, Khoesan, San, and English soldiers who'd gone AWOL, as well as descendants of former VOC soldiers who were Swedish, German, Swiss, and Dutch. There's a correlation here with the American Frontier experience, where men and sometimes women, armed with muskets, bows, and spears, wearing feathered headgear or wide-brimmed trekboer hats and riding horses, raided their neighbours for cattle and horses or exchanged these valuable resources for corn, tobacco, dogs and alcohol, much like other nineteenth century frontiers. There the roaming bandits were the Jumanos, the Lakota, the Metis, all became seminal in the B-grade Western movies of the 1950s. South Africa's bandits and raiders were arraigned across a large area, but perhaps the most interesting were those living in the amaTola mountains, a mixture of people who were on the fringes of society. Because horses were only introduced to the Drakensberg in the 1830s and production of hunter-gatherer rock art in that region had almost entirely ceased by the 1880s, horse paintings are comparatively tightly pinpointed in time, unlike virtually all other categories of images in southern African rock art. San paintings of this time reveal quite an astonishing fact, these people had a mixed material culture, the paintings who San and others who were not San working together, carrying firearms, riding horses with their dogs running alongside, carrying spears and bows, and importantly, dancing their trance dances. The area I'm addressing lies between the Mzimvubu River and the Tina River, across the central Drakensburg in other words, across both sides of the escarpment, stretching from Giants Castle in modern Kwa-Zulu Natal to Mount Fletcher in the Eastern Cape and Matsaile inside Lesotho. Glancing at a map, and tracing folks living in this area in 1840 you'd find the Voortrekkers arraigned inland from Port Natal, around Pietermaritzburg, and up to the headwaters of the Umgeni, the Mooi River and Bushman's River just below Giant's Castle. From here the San Raiders controlled the landscape, along the ridges of the Drakensberg south westerly to Mount Fletcher, in the slopes above the Senqu River or the headwaters of the Orange Riverif you prefer. This overlooked where the Bhaca lived, south east of them, the amaMpondo, further south the Mpondomise, then further the amaThembu, to their east and south the amaXhosa could be found and to their south, the English settlers in Albany. I hope you can feel the proximity of these amaTola raiders because everyone in these areas were somewhat fearful of the gangs of men on horses. The San raiders were based in that mountain redoubt between Giant's Castle and Mount Fletcher and they were surrounded by enemies but also prospective allies. This mountain redoubt was getting a bad name, and soon would be identified on maps from the 1840s onwards as nomansland.

Cape Town was burgeoning — and trade was starting to pick up. There was also a paradox, the real effects of the emancipation of slaves back in 1834 was only really felt in 1838 because it was in that year the 38 000 slaves were finally allowed to leave their masters. The abolition of slavery led to the creation of several private commercial banks, which then offered cheap credit to wage-labour employers. The British parliament allocated £20 million as compensation for those who had previously owned slaves and were now stripped on their erstwhile ‘property' in inverted comma's — to be shared out across it's territories. Of the twenty million, £1,247 000 was allocated to the Cape. Though a certain proportion of this money got stuck in Great Britain in the hands of agents as we've heard in previous episodes, the amount that arrived in the Cape Colony, mainly in 1836–37, quintupled the sum of money in circulation. This in turn caused a raising of prices, it was inflationary, and also led to increased labour costs. Some of the money was invested in new banks, as well as providing capital to build new houses around the Cape. One of these was the Eastern Province Bank which launched in 1838 in Grahamstown - which went on to become Barclay's Bank, and during the sanctions period of apartheid, it morphed into First National Bank. Compensated emancipation at the Cape was a major social rupture, ending as it did 182 years of legal slavery, changing the legal status of these 38 000 people. The slave-like apprenticeship period that followed emancipation in 1834 had now expired. Khoi, and other members of the free black community continued to work mostly in farm employment, although a few became market gardeners or joined the small but growing artisanal class in the villages of the Western Cape.' Emancipation at the Cape freed slaves into the category "free black," which encompassed all people of colour native to the Western Cape: "Hottentots" was the colonial term for the Khoi and "Bushmen" the colonial term for the San, "Bastards" were those who had a white father, Khoi mother and "Bastard Hottentots" were those who had a slave father and Khoi mother. By the time of emancipation, the slave population of the Western Cape was predominantly creole, including descendants of slaves brought from the west and east coasts of Africa, Madagascar, India, and the Dutch East Indies, and children born of a slave mother and a free father. The close cultural and social relations between Khoisan and slaves and the incorporation of the Khoisan into the Cape colonial economy, also contributed to the heterogeneous culture of the rural poor at this stage. The introduction of "prize negroes," who had been "rescued" from other nations' slave ships by the British and brought to the Cape from 1808 to 1815 and then again in the 1830s to remedy the labor shortage in the Western Cape, also served to increase the polyglot nature of the rural poor of the Western Cape. This diversity of geographical and cultural origins affected the emergence of an official racial terminology to cover all of these groups to simplify matters. Thus while the category of "free black" continued to be used into the 1840s in government correspondence regarding labor legislation. But from 1837 the statistical Blue Books began listing people of Khoi and San descent, free blacks, “prize negroes," and freed people under the category “Coloured." The slave owners were a leisure class and now slaves were free, it was the start of the fourth decade of the 19th Century. The slaves had the skills, the leisure class, did not, and now this leisure class really needed the new banks. So the abolition of slavery resulted in the liquidation of at substantial portion of the capital that had been invested in the individuals who were enslaved.

Not many of us can claim to have hunted with the Bushmen of the Kalahari; been detained for spying by the KGB; or smuggled ourselves over a border into an active war zone under the floorboards of an ambulance. Yet, for our latest guests on the Futureverse, this is all in a day's work. The Sunday Times' Chief Foreign Correspondent Christina Lamb, who has been covering conflict around the globe for over three decades, does not regard herself as a risk taker, though. It was not an attraction to danger that led her to war reporting, but a surprise wedding invitation that landed on her desk in 1987. Similarly, as a teenager, the adventurer and broadcaster Simon Reeve, enjoyed the thrill of cycling down Acton High Street on his BMX, but did not imagine that he would spend his early professional life on the tail of neo-Nazi terrorists in Boston Spa. In this special episode of the Futureverse, Christina and Simon join Kamal Ahmed for a conversation about their attitudes to risk: what motivates them to take the risks that they do and how they calculate risk on the ground. It is a fascinating insight into what it means to put your life on the line in order to shine light on the darkest corners of the world. It also is a prescient reminder of Y TREE's core principles: mitigate unnecessary risk – even Simon Reeve will not get in a car without a seat belt – and always set a personal risk level that feels right for you.

The guest shares his spiritual experiences, including shamanic training, ritual work, and fasting for 34 days, and offers no-nonsense tips on how to avoid being manipulated or lied to on the spiritual path and how to rid oneself of soul contracts.In this episode, we discuss the dangers of blindly following a spiritual path without doing proper research and protection. Our guest shares his personal experience of being lied to and manipulated by otherworldly entities, and how he was able to break free from their grasp. We also touch on the importance of embodying the teachings of spiritual leaders like Jesus and Buddha, rather than simply inviting their spirits into our hearts.For a lot more information about this episode, visit our website for the full show notes and summaries: https://www.skepticmetaphysician.com/michael-falcone Other episodes you'll enjoy:Real Magick and Mysticismhttps://www.skepticmetaphysician.com/real-magick-and-mysticism My Interview with a Vampyrehttps://www.skepticmetaphysician.com/my-interview-with-a-vampyre Mysteries of the Unseen Worldhttps://www.skepticmetaphysician.com/mysteries-of-the-unseen-world-benton-ryer ABOUT OUR GUEST: Michael Falcone has a law degree from the University of Connecticut.

When I first met Rupert Isaacson, one of the things the struck me most was his tremendous energy and zest. He has the capacity to infuse joy into a room with a combination of humour, wisdom and compassion that makes it easy to get caught up in his enthusiasm and keen to understand more about him and the things that he's passionate about. His life story is one that traverses a lot of territory. A journalist for the British and American press from the early 1990s, he has also published several guidebooks to Africa and India, and is the author of three non-fictional memoirs: The Healing Land (a New York Times Notable Book), which tells the story of his family in Africa, and of his own time spent living with the Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert; The Horse Boy (a New York Times and Sunday Times bestseller), which tells the story of his journey across Mongolia on horseback with his autistic son Rowan; and The Long Ride Home, which tells of the three subsequent healing journeys he and his son made to Africa, Australia and the Navajo Reservation, as well as his discovery of how horses can help autism and special needs in general. Rupert also runs the Horse Boy Foundation which offers services to autism families, Movement method education (a movement based learning methodology) and Helios Harmony (training to introduce riders to the higher levels of equitation). A career in human rights runs parallel to all this; In 2004 Rupert founded the Indigenous Land Rights Fund, which helps hunting and gathering tribes gain legal title to their ancestral land and which helped the Bushmen of Botswana win the largest land claim in African history in 2006. In this episode, we discuss: The concept of vitality and what it means to live a full and vital life How our history and mythology informs our current experience (and how we can use this knowledge to our benefit) Belonging, purpose and connection You can find out more or get in touch with Rupert via his website: https://ntls.co/ Happy listening! ❤️ Jane
Bill Ury is the co-founder of Harvard's Program on Negotiation and is one of the world's leading experts on negotiation and mediation. Trained as a social anthropologist, Bill has carried out his research on negotiation not only in the boardroom and at the bargaining table, but also among the Bushmen of the Kalahari and the clan warriors of New Guinea. On this podcast, Bill shares his unique perspective on how empathetic listening can make a difference. Not just across a negotiation table between world powers, but in our day to day interactions with people. He also has a conversation with Barry-Wehmiller CEO, Bob Chapman.
This is episode 87 and it's time to talk a bit about the terrifying power of San poison and then a quick revisit to the frontier of 1822 which of course is exactly two hundred years ago. As part of the picture of the past, at times when there's a bit of a lull in the action so to speak, I'll concentrate on aspects of historical themes or interesting titbits and today we're looking into South Africa's first people and specifically – their deadly poison arrows. All the way through these episodes, you have heard about how the amaXhosa, the Khoe and the Boers, then the British, exploited or subjugated the San – previously known as the Bushmen. We have enough DNA evidence to point to the fact that they were not only the first people of South Africa but given their DNA diversity, are the first people of planet earth. But this didn't stop everyone from trying to either kill them, or co-opt them through the thousands of years that their lives have intersected with the lives of newer folks returning home so to speak. The San were particularly terrifying because they could manufacture various types of poison for use with their arrows. Based on the results obtained from various artefacts spanning historical, Later and Middle Stone Age phases particularly at sites along the cape coast archaeologists believe poisoned bone arrowheads may have been in use in southern Africa throughout the last 72,000 years. Its now time move refocus on to what was going on across southern Africa and the world in 1821 as we step back to assess matters. In the east, Shaka Zulu was starting to flex his imperial muscles as you know while in Cape Town, Lord Charles Somerset was back from his sabbatical and facing the ruin of most 1820 Settlers. But the newspapers were also obsessing about other matters at the end of 1821. Napoleon Bonaparte had died of stomach cancer in exile in St Helena. Europe was increasingly unstable as the agreements signed at the Congress of Vienna in 1815 were coming apart.

My guest today on the Green Dream is Lily Cole, British model-turned-environmentalist and author of https://www.lilycole.com/who-cares-wins-the-book (Who Cares Wins: How to Protect the Planet You Love), an eye-opening book about climate change. Lily began modeling twenty years ago and has been named “Model of the Year” and one of the top 30 models of the 2000s. When Lily was 17, she modeled for a jewelry company that was later accused of exploiting local Bushmen with its diamond mining practices. Lily traveled to Botswana to understand the situation, and she was so moved by what she saw, she helped the Bushmen export their own jewelry and keep the profits. This was her first campaign to help the planet and humanity, and it put her on the path toward activism. Since then, she has woven together her modeling and climate awareness work. Following the publication of her book, Lily launched a podcast of her own, also called https://www.lilycole.com/podcast (Who Cares Wins). On it, she discusses climate solutions with guests such as Chelsea Clinton, David Attenborough, and Elon Musk. I heard Lily speak at the TED Countdown Summit in Edinburgh last year, during a dinner she hosted at the botanical gardens for conference attendees, and was truly moved by her passion for climate reforms. I think you will be too.

The Two Hungers - Matthew KellyGet Matthew's 60 Second Wisdom delivered to your inbox: https://www.matthewkelly.com/subscribeVideo Transcript:“In A Moveable Feast, Ernest Hemmingway writes about the many types of hunger we experience. He wrote this about a nagging hunger that he couldn't seem to satisfy, “My wife and I had a wonderful meal at Michaud's, but when we had finished and there was no question of hunger any more the feeling that had been like hunger when we were standing on the bridge was still there. It was there when we came home and after we had gone to bed and made love in the dark, it was there. When I woke with the windows open and the moonlight on the rooftops of Paris, it was there. I put my face away from the moonlight into the shadow but I could not sleep and lay awake thinking about it. My wife slept sweetly now with the moonlight on her face. I had to try to think it out and I was too stupid. Life had seemed so simple that morning when I had wakened to the spring…” We have all I suspect had similar experiences with hunger. To be human is to be hungry. Knowing what we truly hunger for is wisdom. The Bushmen of the Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa talk about the “two hungers.” There is the Great Hunger and there is the Little Hunger. The Little Hunger yearns for food while the Great Hunger, the greatest hunger of all, is the hunger for meaning. Laurens van der Post, the South African author and godfather to Prince William wrote, “There is ultimately only one thing that makes human beings deeply and profoundly bitter, and that is to have thrust upon them a life without meaning. There is nothing wrong in searching for happiness. But of far more comfort to the soul is something greater than happiness or unhappiness, and that is meaning. Because meaning transfigures all. Once what you are doing has meaning for you, it is irrelevant whether you're happy or unhappy. You are content.” What are you hungry for today?”If you have not read LIFE IS MESSY, order your copy today: https://amzn.to/2TTgZKn Subscribe to Matthew's YouTube Channel today! https://www.youtube.com/c/MatthewKellyAuthor/featured?sub_confirmation=1https://www.matthewkelly.comGet Matthew's 60 Second Wisdom delivered to your inbox: https://www.matthewkelly.com/subscribe The Best Version of Yourself and 60 Second Wisdom are registered trademarks.#MatthewKelly #BestVersionOfYourself #BestVersion

The Western Cape High Court has dealt another major blow to the construction of Amazon's new African headquarters in Observatory in Cape Town. The developers behind the R4-billion River Club mixed-use complex with Amazon as anchor tenant have been denied leave to appeal a court order halting construction. The court's deputy judge president Patricia Goliath struck the application down, stating she had carefully considered her judgment and concluded that the arguments raised against it were without merit. So the fight is not over and it remains to be seen what the Supreme Court of Appeal will decide.

The Khoi and the San were the earliest inhabitants of South Africa, the latter roaming as hunter gatherers for tens of thousands of years. Khoi and San leaders are celebrating after developers were told to halt construction on land said to be sacred. About two months ago, the Western Cape High Court granted an urgent interdict against developers working for the US-based company Amazon which is building its Africa head offices in Cape Town. The Black River Observatory site is allegedly sacred to many first-nations people. Groups representing Khoisan indigenous community, one of the earliest inhabitants of southern Africa, approached the Cape Town High Court on January 19, 2022 to stop the construction of Amazon's 70,000-square meter Africa headquarters on land they regard as sacred. The political window of opportunity is closing fast on South Africa's first peoples. With every passing year, their centuries-old land claims get harder to verify, and their children grow increasingly indifferent toward the Khoisan cause. And in the end capitalism might just succeed in banishing the legacy of the Khoi and the San to a distant memory.

In this world there are still a couple of races that have a legitimate claim to being the oldest continuous culture in our world. The Bushmen of Africa are among these ancient races. If the ultimate and highest truths of this world are held in nature, then it is the Bushmen who have the highest (more...)

Hey everybody! Episode 64 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with my friend Ben. Ben and I have had a similar path in life. We've both had a similar quest and interest in spirituality, shamanism, martial arts, and religion. We both have spent time with different cultures learning about various paths of healing and medicine. And we both share a common teacher who works with Amazonian medicine. So I knew we would have a lot to talk about and to share. This was a long podcast and we went into a lot of topics around shamanism, plant medicines, ayahuasca, tobacco, and also touched on some of the current world situation. I really enjoyed catching up with Ben and having him share in his wisdom, life path, and thoughts. We had a pretty deep conversation, and Ben has a lot of wisdom to share through his many years of self-exploration and medicine paths. I hope and think you all will get a lot out of this episode. As always, to support this podcast, get early access to shows, bonus material, and Q&As, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!“Over the last 20 years, Benjamin has spent extensive time living and learning from traditional healers in Asia, Africa, North America, South America and Australasia. Benjamin has spent long periods in the Amazon and has worked with many Curanderos (healers) there. While in the Amazon, he completed an apprenticeship as a Tabaquero with one of the most renowned and skilled Tabaquero's in Peru. As well as learning from traditional healers, he is also an Acupuncturist and Qigong Practitioner. Benjamin likes to bring this knowledge to all of his teaching and healing work.”For more info about Benjamin and his work, visit: https://www.facebook.com/BenjaminWatiWaraThis episode of the show is sponsored by the Temple of the Way of Light.
