Bwiti and Christ
« on: January 24, 2014, 11:26:16 AM »
Some links which I find valuable exploring the links with salvation (Christ energy) and Bwiti.  More and more I find myself in touch with Christ as the ultimate healer and seeing how Kambo is in direct contact with that spirit of healing.  I admit this may not be applicable to many people but for me I can honestly say that Iboga has taken on a Christ force in my life and it is critical for me to know how this relates to the history of Iboga use (Bwiti is the only way to find this really). 

This one is a must read for those interested in Bwiti:

Another must read book that goes into detail about the view of Christ amongst the Bwiti:

I don't know French but the title of this book is "Bwiti and Christianity"

This site is full of articles on the Bwiti origin of creation stories:

Much more to explore, for me this is more of a resource and reference to come back to and add on.

Thanks for this Kampum, its such an important subject when it comes to healing.

As you know, Christ or Christ Consciousness does not belong to any specific sect or religious orientation.  It existed in many civilizations for millennia before the time of Jesus. It is a state of consciousness in which a universal awareness is transformed into a higher consciousness. Christ is a universal manifestation of love, the ultimate expression of the Logos.

The Christ is an ex-temporal Being, that renews and develops itself from instant to instant; it is the spark of life and consciousness in every living being, from all kingdoms, in every manifestation, and in every cell and atom.

To get to know the Cosmic Christ is to practice self-realization, self-awareness and mindful living, essential for anyone working with any form of healing.

I too believe that Kambo embodies this Cosmic Christ as does Iboga, Aya and Peyote and all the other sacred medicines. It may have different labels but ultimately its the same thing. Once you get to know these medicines and you are able to relax and communicate with them, you can see this. They are pure love, here for us to discover and heal ourselves with. Difficult to believe that Kambo is pure love for some people, but, I am in no doubt, I have felt it over and over again, from the frogs and from their medicine. Sometimes love is challenging and difficult but its still love!
