Ayahuasca in the Media
Like a comet illuminating a night sky, ayahuasca is bursting open the minds of millions. Its effects are broad and far-reaching, and its popularity is soaring. Media outlets, from TV programs to magazines and newspapers, are covering this phenomenon, from the sacred to the absurd. Ayahuasca has been featured in National Geographic Adventure, Time Magazine, Newsweek, CNN, Vanity Fair, FOX News, The Washington Post, Discovery Channel, in at least a couple of full-length feature films, numerous documentaries, and in hundreds of other media venues. Click onto YouTube and you will find a wide variety of ayahuasca-related videos. Hundreds of web sites dedicated to ayahuasca have sprung up. In today’s parlance, ayahuasca has gone viral. The spirit of ayahuasca is reaching out in all directions, capturing hearts and minds with its siren song. We’ll explore the phenomenon of ayahuasca in the media, and delve into how and why this is happening now.
Hacking The Cosmic Motherboard
Ayahuasca, that profound plant potion from antiquity, enables one who journeys to hack the cosmic motherboard, to delve into existence beyond thought, ideation, definition or form, that trans-linguistic state prior to all programming, belief, or wired-in notions. With ayahuasca, we get to choose the psycho-neurological programs by which we live. Ayahuasca liberates the drinker from sick, archaic, manipulative, and fear-based programming, and enables them to enter into life as a free, liberated, spirit-imbued being.
More About Chris Kilham
“Long before religious institutions were numbing the minds of the masses with droning scriptures from dusty texts, ayahuasca was shattering the boundaries of reality among native people in the Amazon, opening them up, body, mind and spirit, to direct revelations and personal encounters with pure spirit. This is the promise of ayahuasca.” — Chris Kilham
