Conversations with the shade before Arutam light
The voice of Arutam is steadily revealing everywhere in the jungle. Day and night His whisper slips through logs, leaves, breezes, feathers and furs. Its tone only changes itself to render allegiance to heavens and, at the same time, it enjoys His sacred presence. Even though the whole thing is the last truth revealed in howling songs, the shadow holds
The beast and the trees
Create a world drawing from our resistance, put us far away from our nature. We can’t define ourselves basing on the “I” games, while taking photos and laughing in ignorance the tomorrow. The tendency pushes us towards the failure, in a self-condemnation that burns and etches the beast. A warrior would react with character and strength, arising the battle every
Shamanism and Ayahuasca ceremony difficulties. Discussions with Arutam Ruymán in Geneva, Switzerland.
First question Participant: I had a very powerful dream yesterday, with a lot of visions. The whole night. And I was very negative. I have the feeling that I was in a rollercoaster. I think that place was not bearable, or I couldn’t take it… so I felt I was dying. Once, twice, three times. A thousand times. I think
Relevant questions on traditional ayahuasca ceremony
Participant: In the first week that I was with you, I had very intense visions. They were good, but brief visions. Many things were revealed to me. However, in these last ceremonies, my visions are no longer so intense as they were before. My question is this: is it really important to have visions? Is it possible to achieve the
The main purpose and the minor ones for the man walking the path of Shamanism
The purpose of the man’s way in Shamanism is to rediscover the union with Arutam (Great Spirit). Man must release his feelings by remembering where he came from and how he was born. Our body, as well as its feelings, came from the depths of existence in order to live in total union with itself; beating and breathing in every
Clarifying difficulties during Ayahuasca retreat and ceremony
First question Participant: For the second time, during the second ceremony, I feel fear of death. This fear does not begin immediately, just when Ayahuasca begins to take effect, but a little later, during the night. And I still feel it even at night. Even for most of the day, I was mortified, and so I was asking to see

Some words of wisdom about fasting and Ayahuasca ceremony
We humans live, first and foremost, because the sacred touch of Arutam flows within us. The spark of Life shouted at us and will continue to blink during the years in which we can ensure its presence in our bodies. A good diet prolongs our life, because it prevents us from consuming that original energy, which is our resource. Many
My Grandparent’s diet. A clarification statement.
It’s very difficult to find fat and proteins of vegetable origin in the jungle. Everything is too wet in such a place. The terrain is often just water and almost no earth on top. These are the central ingredients for a diet designed to optimize high muscular performance for proper development and maintenance. In the jungle it’s absolutely necessary a
Arutam and the force
Arutam (Great Spirit, Life) is a perfect crystal that sustains the entire existence in a single Great Feeling. It’s the perfect intellect behind the world we see, that eternally imbibes from its own grace. It’s harmony, which keeps that sacred perfection intact, making it both immortal and eternally venerable; just a pass of time that dignifies it, and uncovers new

Talk with Arutam Ruymán in El Tanque, Santa Cruz de Tenerife.
A QUESTION ABOUT THE LESSONS LEARNED THROUGHOUT THE WAY Participant: Does Natem (Ayahuasca) take us into our darkness? Ruymán: I wouldn’t say that Natem leads us into our darkness: I’d rather say that Ayahuasca immerses us into the Spirit’s depths, and as we reach the Spirit, we see those dark tendencies, the ones that we feed daily; we can feel
