Hayulima is a psychedelic sanctuary for the people. Matthew Weintrub (@heytrub) invites you to visit for healing and transformation. As an author of The Psychedelic Origin of Religion, Matthew is one of the pioneers of the modern psychedelic movement. His passion is to heal America by asking that everyone have the right to practice their religion freely and without consequence.
“We need to restore the right to heal with God's natural medicines, the psychedelic plant medicines. And I believe when we do that, we will put this country back on a path to salvation. ” - Matt Weintrub
Key Takeaways:
-
Domination Government: We have reached a point where our US government is no longer honoring the right to practice religion freely. We, the people, need to uphold the US Constitution for all people. Citizens need to wake up and see that they are being distracted and misinformed. And each day, freedoms are being stripped away. It is easy to take away a right/freedom but harder to get it back.
-
Imagine: “Imagine all the people living for today.” A prolific writer and artist John Lennon offered one of the best prayers for the world. This song is an excellent meditation on the possibility of everyone coming together to heal and unite. Imagine: By John Lennon
-
Appropriation of Plant Medicine: As psychedelics become more mainstream in the Western world, it is crucial to be aware of the colonialistic mind and how it commandeers things as its own when indigenous cultures have been practicing and using the medicines for years. It is important to build alliances with chiefs from indigenous nations to respect the lineages.
-
The Herd of One: In many indigenous cultures, there is the mentality of what someone does to their neighbor, they do to themself. This way of life applies to healing oneself as well. The perspective is that in a healing circle, or ceremony, the individual (the herd of one) is everyone (the herd of all). Indigenous cultures believe that we heal together and make the whole world better by healing ourselves.
