We invite you to have 'A Closer Look' at the Heart of the Initiate ayahuasca workshops in Brazil. We'll take you on an experiential journey with the sacred plants to have a deeper understanding of who you really are. In the stunning natural beauty of our location, we'll explore the vast inner worlds of this visionary medicine.
"The truly remarkable thing about this plant medicine ayahuasca is that it is presenting to you a whole new arena of consciousness. In the moment I think that's where this reconnection happens, this remembering, this reconnection with yourself. In this moment you can have a sense of the sacredness of every action that you make." - Ralph Miller, Heart of the Initiate

2012 Revisited by Ralph Miller (June 21st, 2008)
The December 21, 2012 date is a symbol that exists as an extraordinary irony. Any particular date is a man created marker denoting the concept of a point in time. I find this ironic since the great transition or evolution we may be approaching surely has to do with complete renovation of our time consciousness or even the eradication of time itself!
Emanant Ego Collapse by Ralph Miller (September 22nd, 2007)
When we experience a big loss of control it makes us feel insecure and vulnerable. There is a letdown and perhaps we experience ourselves as being a little more genuinely human. Our collective ideas about ourselves form an assembly of self-importance or ego. This letdown is the collapse of those ideas. We are humbled.
The 2012 Problem by Ralph Miller (September 11th, 2006)
We live according to the structures of time, but we really have little understanding of what it actually is. There is a forgotten inner landscape wherein we can perceive our connection to everything. That reconnection will bring an end to time as we have known, and will forever change who we are as human beings.

Ayahuasca: A Universidade Gaia por Ralph Miller (Português)
A metáfora da “escola” na verdade não é uma metáfora de forma alguma. Tudo na Ayahuasca é sobre aprendizado. Durante uma cerimônia com a Ayahuasca, você começa num lugar e termina em outro. A próxima cerimônia traz você de volta ao lugar que você deixou. As aulas começam às 09:00h... o sino toca... e a “mãe-Aya” dá a lição do dia!
