Our Lineage

Shipibo teachings are the foundation of our church.

We are honored to be rooted in the sacred teachings of the Shipibo lineage, one of the most revered and ancient spiritual traditions of the Peruvian Amazon.

The Shipibo people are renowned for their deep connection to the spiritual world and their mastery of plant medicine ceremonies.

The Shipibo Tradition

The Shipibo lineage embodies a profound spiritual connection with nature and the cosmos. Their teachings have been passed down through generations of master healers, known as curanderos, who serve as guardians of this sacred knowledge. Their wisdom informs every aspect of our ceremonies, from the preparation and use of plant sacraments to the sacred icaros (healing songs) that guide participants on their spiritual journeys.

Sacred Teachings and Practices

Under the guidance of Shipibo wisdom keepers, we have embraced the sacred use of Ayahuasca and other plant sacraments as central pillars of our spiritual practice. These sacraments serve as tools for deep healing, transformation, and communion with the divine.

The Shipibo teachings emphasize:

Sacred Reciprocity (Ayni): A harmonious exchange between humanity and nature, ensuring balance and respect. Spiritual Healing and Protection: Using sacred sacraments and rituals to cleanse, heal, and protect the spirit. Icaros as Spiritual Guidance: The sacred songs of the Shipibo, which carry the power to heal, protect, and elevate consciousness during ceremonies.
