LET’S CLARIFY SOME GENERAL IDEAS

ABOUT CURANDERISMO

ONE

It is not a religion. It is a way of living life. It is compatible with any religion, as it helps to develop a higher spirituality and therefore a better experience with your own religious path.

 

TWO

It’s not black magic, neither dark arts. The foundation of Curanderismo is love, compassion and respect for everything and everyone.

 

THREE

Curanderismo is a general term to describe some ancient traditions of the Americas and Europe. Curanderismo has branched in different paths because of the size of our Mother Earth. The foundation is the same, but the way the ceremonies are performed may vary. There is no type of Curanderismo better than another. The best type is the one that works for you.

 

FOUR

We practice the kind of Curanderismo that does not support the use of hallucinogenic drugs or plants, alcohol or any substance that may alter the of mind. There are many branches or paths in Shamanism and Curanderismo. The Curanderismo that I teach is natural; it is not induced by any preparation. You will learn a series of exercises to reach other realities without the need for chemicals that may harm your body.

 

FIVE

And of course, like anything, it can be a double-edged sword. With these lessons, you can do good or harm. That’s on you, but as a recommendation, think before doing anything. Think if it is for the benefit of the universe and never do anything if your mental state is not in peace.
