Beschreibung
The first time Silvia Remkins drank ayahuasca, a psychotropic medicine sacred to the Indigenous peoples of the Amazon, she was hoping to experience mystical union with nature and the cosmos. The reality, however, was nothing like it. The deeply disturbing visual and auditory hallucinations she experienced were accompanied by extreme physical discomfort and nausea. After drinking the brew a second time, she learned that she wouldn't enjoy ayahuasca's more agreeable effects until the psychological trauma that had caused her decades of depression was healed. Ayahuasca's primary purpose is to heal spiritual malaise. Despite the rigours of drinking ayahuasca, and repeated vows that she would never do so again, Remkins continued to participate in ayahuasca ceremonies numerous times, because she felt the incessant pull of "Grandmother," the spirit of the ayahuasca plant. Over many months and thousands of miles, and in the form of extraordinary synchronicities and signs, Grandmother kept summoning Remkins to return to the Amazon to finish healing. It would take seven years and thirteen ceremonies before Remkins finally had her demons purged. An Ayahuasca Odyssey is the story of how Remkins healed a lifetime of depression with ayahuasca, and its guiding spirit known as Grandmother.
