TABOO History For Sleep | Song of the Serpent: Ayahuasca & Shamanic Rituals

Details

Description

Dive deep into the hidden world of the Shipibo-Konibo people of Peru’s Amazon basin—where ayahuasca is more than a brew, it’s a portal to the spirit realm, and every kené pattern tells a story older than time. In this feature-length episode, we trace the serpent-song of Ronin from mythic origin myths through centuries of persecution, colonial rubber-boom horrors, mid-century modernization, and today’s global ayahuasca boom. Along the way you’ll meet apprentice shamans, rebel maestros, charlatan “song thieves,” and a modern generation fighting to protect their sacred medicine.

What You’ll Learn:
✔️How Shipibo cosmology makes song, art & ritual inseparable
✔️The brutal history of forced rubber tapping and spiritual backlash
✔️The rise of fake “shamans” and how communities fought back
✔️Modern threats—from fashion plagiarism to tech-enabled tourism
✔️Innovative solutions: Escuela Meraya, KenéGuard, AI flood-modeling
✔️Why ayahuasca remains taboo, sacred, and fiercely protected
