Ayahuasca - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ayahuasca (ayawaska pronounced [ajaˈwaska] in the Quechua language) is any of various psychoactive infusions or decoctions prepared from the Banisteriopsis spp. vine, usually mixed with the leaves of dimethyltryptamine (DMT)-containing species of shrubs from the Psychotria genus. The brew, first described academically in the early 1950s by Harvard ethnobotanist Richard Evans Schultes, who found it employed for divinatory and healing purposes by the native peoples of Amazonian Colombia, is known by a number of different names (see below). It has been reported that some effects can be had from consuming the Caapi vine alone, but that DMT-containing plants (such as Psychotria) remain inactive when drunk as a brew without a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) such as Caapi. How indigenous peoples discovered the synergistic properties of the plants used in the ayahuasca brew remains unknown.[1]

The term Theyyam is a corrupt form of Devam or God. People of these districts consider Theyyam itself as a God and they seek blessings from this Theyyam. A similar custom is followed in the Tulu Nadu region of neighbouring Karnataka known as Bhuta Kola

how interesting..

As part of my Animation Workshop at L.A. Mission College this Spring of 2011, I made this animated snippet of the adventures of a cosmic creatrix Ngame, who is an advanced humanoid superheroine goddess of the Akan tribe of Ghana. She and her sidekick, Ugo travel throughout the void mixing up matter and anti-matter, creating universes and seeding stars and planets.

I first discovered the myth griot story of Ngame while researching myths for my mythology painting series in Spring of 2010 for which I made a series of 5 paintings in several styles with my absolutely amazing teacher, Barbara Kerwin.

The first was a literal style called simply, Ngame Creatrix of the Cosmos

From Ngame Creatrix Movie Poster November 2010

The second was a surreal piece called Propitiation for the Goddess

From Ngame Creatrix Movie Poster November 2010

The third was a pop piece called Ngame Pop

From Ngame Creatrix Movie Poster November 2010

Then for my graphic arts class I made a poster for the concept of Ngame Creatrix in Fall of 2010

“The whole secret of existence is to have no fear. Never fear what will become of you, depend on no one. Only the moment you reject all help are you freed.” ~buddha

never fear because that fear will paralyse you.. just jump in from your head to your 10 toes on both feet... it will catalyse you..

Some are charming, some are down-right annoying; but we've all got at least one. What is your weirdest habit?

i am soo emotional.. i will cry at the drop of a hat fearing that it has been injured.. my family and friends have taken to watching me for entertainment purposes during ANYTHING sad that occurs.. for example, my sister and her daughters, my nieces, as well as my daughter were watching a movie together and it got to the sad music and something heart rending occurred, so they all turn to observe me, elbowing each other to look at me and get ready for the bawling to begin so that they can have a laugh.. yeah.. i'm overly empathically weird like that and the pattern is set for my peeps to be amused..

The leaves are changing and Halloween is just around the corner. What are your favorite movies to watch during this time?

ghoulie gosh there are too many.. i'll start out with the chaos of zombie blood thirst, but just a little because that will throw me off whatever food i intend to ingest for a while.. throw in some david lynch's surreal eraserhead, blue velvet, lost highway, mulholland drive..

my biggest halloween thrill is getting lost in vampire mythos, you know, make it down a vampire movie list filled with thousand year old plots filled with sexy vampire seduction, grisly vampire blood lust feedings, revenge and the drama of inter clan wars... nosferatu, lost boys, the underworld series, the blade series...did you ever see marilyn chambes in 'rabid'? too much.. i'm still upset that anne rice's lestat and queen of the damned turned out so horribly on film so i will have none of that.. but i am really gonna make an effort to see 30 days of nightthis weekend..

today i was home nursing my head, sore from a header i took into the pavement during my attempt to ride my bike to work today, and so i was forced (sic) to watch a sci fi channel marathon of 'kindred: the embracing' , an aaron spelling tv dilution that lasted 8 episodes in the mid 90's.. the cast was led by the protagonist Julian Luna, the scion of a family of sonoma county wine purveyors and now the prince of San Franciscan vampires , the role was played by the now really deceased Mark Frankel, who died while riding a yellow harley in the english countryside..

here's a halloween what if.. he really became a vampire and if he did, i'd offer him my throat in a heartbeat and happily join his little vampire masquerade..

Some of you already got 'em, others are about to make 'em and the rest have certainly thought about it. What are you planning on naming your kids?

aaaahhh.. naming my children was one of the most collaborative efforts i've ever undertaken on schoolhouse earth. my sense is that they participated in their naming as they were becoming and attaching themselves to this idea of being born and inhabiting their bodies..

Saia Amouris.. i had Jessamine and Amaryllis on her list.. but the sound of Saia was like a siren song luring me and when i look at her i can still hear the sound.. she's very gifted, an explorer and totally independent, very good at asserting her own style and thinking.. Saia was conceived in hawaii and i found her name in a hawaiian phone book.. it was one of the few names that was not in the hawaiian alphabet and comes from the portuguese first inhabitants of the islands.. i was told it means 'outgoing' and later on found out that it means 'skirt' *lol*.. now you say.. why would you name your child after a garment? it was the sound, not the meaning that was most important to me.. and besides, under the definition of skirt there are many possibilities and, in getting to know her i've found that she certainly is great at going to the edge of ideas and getting around the issues so amazingly, this name suits her perfectly.. her middle name 'Amouris' is me getting all blackalicious and putting the french word for love with english verb 'is' ... because she is so very lovely and precious.. jeez, even now, i don't want to take it back despite it's ghetto pedigree..

my 2nd amazing creation is named Joshua Hunter.. i was going to name him Hunter and somehow Joshua came to mind.. so i decided the biblical would come before the primitive.. and here he comes, blazing into the world like an old world general.. he was always just a little toughie, falling out of windows just because at the age of 9 months, thanks jeebus he landed in a soft patch.. josh's first love was dinosaurs and then he started being astonishingly knowledgeable about the history and weapons of war.. he was always very tuned into some war making dimension.. naming him 'warrior of God' was so perceptive i felt i was channeling the Divine.. Josh has even written a story about an ancient general 'a la' hannibal or gengis khan.. he truly astounds me with his natural intelligence and maturity..

i felt that way naming both my little miracles..

i always asked their father for ideas, unfortunately, he didn't appear to have any.. which is part of the reason the naming of my kids was so ethereal and other dimensional..

BONUS QUESTION! What have you been putting off for weeks that you absolutely must do THIS WEEKEND?

i will move buster, sit here and truly get some sketching done..

aaaahhh.. good morning, happy saturday and all that merde..

here i sit and i kid you not, buster is on the table.. at least he sits on the edge now in an effort to help me out.. i love this cat..

so i tried this ruse of opening the door so he could hear the call of the wild and off he goes into the courtyard wilderness..

but he'll be back and yes, he'll just jump right on up and lay right in the midst of my pencils and papers.. and i promise you, today i will move him at least 10 times and not give up!

Innocence Lost: Tell us when your childhood officially ended.

never.. my childhood has never officially ended.. it was soo empty and sad that i refuse to give it up until i've resolved my feelings about it..

my childhood was lost and i didn't even know it and so i am still innocent.. no later experience has deterred my dogged determination to satisfy my unconscious unsatisfied inner child nor have those experiences effected me a much as growing up in my dysfunctional family.

i'm an adult child of an alcoholic and his enabler. i'm in a state of arrested development and undergoing a continual process of reparenting myself..

I WILL NOT SURRENDER MY CHILDHOOD UNTIL I'VE HEALED...

What's your speciality in the kitchen?

a pinch of dark matter here and a dash of gas and dust there, squeeze and mix for fission and out comes a mean galaxy.. if i can get ahold of some, i add plasma and some hydrogen and collapse the gravity and out of this nebula massive stars grow..

on the other hand, my boeuf bourguignon is the stuff of gourmet dreams..

How do you deal with an unwanted phone call you've already answered?

for repeat calling telemarketers i simply hang up or just say ''not interested, take me off your calling list'

for repeat calling bill collectors i say 'we have already addressed the status of my payments on this bill and now you're harrassing me, which, as you know, is against the law and now i'm going to report you. DON'T CALL AGAIN'

when it's someone in my personal life that i keep getting bugged by, i answer and say 'look, if you call again, i'm gonna assume that you're going to ask me thie saammmee fucking question or go over the saaaammmee fucking issue, which we have already addressed, so i won't be answering your calls for a while.. you can leave a message on my machine if you want' better yet, i think we need to take a break from talking for now... capice!?' a response which generally boils over into a confrontation...

ultimately, i've discovered that it's better to let the answering machine do what i bought the thing to do... take all my calls dammit...

what a laborious qotd... let's play telephone trottoir instead??
