He has been facilitating bufo toad retreats in Mexico since 2016. Joël Brierre (aka: the entheogenic yogi) is a pioneer in the modern psychedelic movement, and has years of experience in the realm of 5-MeO-DMT and the Bufo Alvarius toad. His unique approach of applying classical non-dual yogic philosophy for both the preparation and integration from the entheogenic experience gained attention from around the world at the first World Bufo Alvarius Congress (WBAC) in 2018 and continues to shift the landscape of psychedelic use. Currently Founder & CEO of Kaivalya Kollectiv and President of Tandava Retreats. Find episode links, summary, and transcript here.

Rak and I met through a mutual friend.  I was literally gobsmacked with who this man is and what he embodies, to the point I opened up at a very deep level with him.  Our discussion together was who heals healers?  For me this has been quite hard to find a person that I can trust to can hold space for myself and this lead to us discussing a podcast on who heals healers.  No matter how enlightened we thing we are we are all human with very human traits.   For those of us who facilitate others to heal, who do we go to where we can be completely vulnerable.  We discussed psychedelics, my recent 5MEO experience where I was left with the sheer brilliance of who we are but then a question, where do we as humans love from.  It was a question that for many of us is that we love from trauma or avoidance or to not be hurt.  Very few of us actually love from love itself.  That is being in the essence of love and like a coin where the 2 sides embrace the light and the dark to create the one experience.  For me Rak's work is brilliant and it is not for the faint hearted.  It is straight to the point, slap you in the face with a fish embodiment of that love.Rak's details are:https://rakrazam.comhttps://www.instagram.com/rakrazam/https://www.facebook.com/rak.razam/Psychedelics:https://rakrazam.com/psychedelics/Aya Awakenings - https://rakrazam.com/about-me/#about-filmsGreg's details are:https://www.gregriley.com.auGreg's Facebook pages:https://www.facebook.com/greg.riley.737/https://www.facebook.com/gregriley5dimensions

Rak is a mythic storyteller: a screenwriter, author, journalist, filmmaker and public speaker. He's been on a twenty-year well-documented journey on the fringes of consciousness that he is willing to share with us, exploring the delicate nature of filming and making media about shamanic experiences. What is this sense of the sacred and initiation into the larger bandwidth of planetary consciousness that earth medicines like ayahuasca and 5-MeO-DMT can engender? What is ego death and how do we release our fear of the unknown, of being in control, to sacrifice our ego to rejoin a larger whole? Is the psychedelic experience being commodified by venture capitalism and the shadow of Wetiko in western mindframe? Is the shamanic underground any different? Rak suggests that collectively we have the pieces to the puzzle of a healthy, sustainable, meaningful new paradigm that unites ancient wisdom with future technology and that shamanism is a thread through the labyrinth of disinformation and division that points towards homeIn 2014 the critically acclaimed documentary adaption of his ayahuasca book, Aya: Awakenings, was released, and toured Australia, the U.K. and the USA. This in turn led to his current documentary series, Shamans of the Global Village, which looks at the resurgence of medicine people around the world working with psychoactive tools for community healing and enlightenment.

Rak Razam is an experiential journalist whose works include two books on Ayahuasca and the documentary Shamans of the Global Village. In this episode, Rak discusses what shamanism is and describes the plants that are central to the shamanic journeys of Peru and other South American countries. He shines a light on the history of shamanism in the world, why so many today are chasing the visions, and the role of the shaman now to heal the global village. In this episode, we discuss:  Ayahuasca, a sacred jungle medicine that grows all over South America that is mixed into a brew that acts as a purgative that can create not just hallucination, but also very deep visionary experiences, when used in particular kinds of sets and settings for healing. Ayahuasceros – the people working with Ayahuasca. Lisa Ling’s third-party reporting on Ayahuasca. The different names of Ayahuasca in certain regions. For example, the Columbians call it Yagé. How people report that it feels like 10 years of psychotherapy in one night. What a shaman is, as well as any potential connection between the Sanskrit word śamana and the western word shaman, which was coined in the Western world by the book Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy from the 50s by Mercea Eliade. How psychoactive plants are part of every landscape. The theory that you can’t serve the people unless you’ve been served. Curanderos, from the Spanish word “to heal”, and the science of curanderismo:  Ayahuasceros specialize in Ayahuasca. Vegetalistas work with plants. Tabaqueros work with tobacco for divination and healing. Shamanic training in which you have to do a dieta: a purification process (give up sugar, oil, salt, meats) to increase sensitivities. The book Thus Spoke the Plant by Monica Gagliano. How Gabor Mate used to lead people to Peru for Ayahuasca. Rak Razam is an alchemical storyteller with his finger on the pulse of tomorrow and the heart of today. A screenwriter, documentary filmmaker, author, journalist and culture maker, his focus is on the new cultural paradigm birthing in this brave new world. His works include the books Aya Awakenings: A Shamanic Odyssey and The Ayahuasca Sessions: Conversations with Amazonian Curanderos and Western Shamans, and the documentary Shamans of the Global Village.  www.rakrazam.com  Heather Grzych is the author of The Ayurvedic Guide to Fertility and the host of the Wisdom of the Body podcast.

Dylan Charles talks with Rak Razam to understand a shamanic perspective on the cultural challenges and divide we are witnessing in civilization as it responds to multiple emergencies, from the coronavirus to economic collapse and ecological devastation. As the ego drive for control brings in a new world order of advanced technologies that track, surveil and entrain an increasingly distanced and traumatized global population, is there a larger process at work? Are we undergoing a spiritual emergency that presages the emergence of something new? Can we acknowledge the world grief of our unsustainable civilization’s collapse? Are we in a planetary ceremony right now, facing our egos, our traumas, and our shadow? And can we let go of blame, control and division to come together with a unified vision for a new way of being?

Join us for this insightful, visionary & informative interview where Rak shares how the current "Global Shamanic Resurgence" , as well as the medicalisation of psychedelics is opening our hearts as well as our minds. Rak speaks on the need to acknowledge the environmental crisis that has created through hundreds of years of disconnection from nature & that now is the time for us to quietly, passionately & lovingly come together to support & collaborate as humans. The need to release our trauma, re-sacralise our relationship with ourselves, one another & "God" to that we can feel whole again ("Holy") has never been more important, & the use of psychedelics in a sacred, safe & held setting has the potential to create a monumental shift in collective human consciousness. May all beings reclaim their Sovereignty, remember our Divine Nature, & once again live in a sacred & sustainable relationship with our Earth Mother.

If psychoactives switch off the Default Mode Network, allowing us to open to the full spectrum of consciousness, what place does this leave the Ego? Is the ego a calcified trauma protection mechanism left behind after the fall and disconnection from Source? Are entheogens wooing us back from Ego to the We-go and the Collective Intelligence of the Unified Field? How can we work with the Ego to find right relationship? And when the peak is over, does the Ego come back stronger–and what can we do about this? Do we need Ego diets? Or more compassion?

Together they paint a map of the current Entheogenic State of the Union from the Western medicalization stream to the indigenous shamanic world, for an up-to-date snapshot of the species awakening. Is the mainstream turning On? Is the media tuning In? Is the War on Consciousness One? Has the latest scientific studies on 5-MeO-DMT shown a neurogenetic potential that is customizing the nervous system to receive deeper Source signal? Is there a lineage all the way back to Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras instructing us how to activate our endogenous capacity to galactivate? Is Logos becoming Holos? Is LOVE All there Is? Join us at the World Bufo Alavrius Congress July 27-29th, Mexico City www.wbac.info We are Already One.
