Mother Nature Deserves Rights and Reparations in Ecuador

Recently (in 2008) the government of Ecuador granted "nature" consitutional inalienable rights and has been in court against the US born oil company Texaco (now Chevron) over damages to the Amazon and its people living in Ecuador. Well the good news is that Ecuador and the Rights of the Amazon won and Texaco was liable for $18 billion in restitution. The bad news is Texaco is trying to get out of pay back the wounded country and appeal the case on US soil.


Please help us to enforce the laws of a country with great respect for nature and encourage Texaco to pay back damages to the Rain Forest. As a fellow guardian of nature and shamanic practitioner, I request the following of you and anyone you share this information with:

  • Please boycott Texaco and Chevron!
  • Please read more about this topic. 
  • Please Sign the Petition!
  • Please write to the U.S. District Judge, Lewis Kaplan  and describe the injustice of Texaco against the Amazon.
  • Help to Respect Nature everywhere and look to your local governments to grant rights to the Earth!


Visit AmazonWatch.org and donate to this cause!

Plants (and Fungus) are people too, if you don't believe me try meeting one. I recommend that you check your local laws and respectfully have an encounter with Ska Maria Pastora (Salvia Divinorum Extracts).

Yoga Swami and Encinitas History

Readers and Yoga Adventurers, Just recently called the Yoga Mecca of the USA, Encinitas CA and Yoga Swami (where I teach two days a week) are special and are a must visit for any yoga adventurers. See the article in the winter 2008 copy of the Encinitas magazine. http://www.encinitasmag.com/about.html Encinitas, Swami's Surf Spot, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, and Leucadia...can be consider spiritual vortex hotspots. This evident in the number of places to worship just on the coast (west of hwy 101) near the cliffside beachs or Swami's and Moonlight. So my mother's family (mexican americans) lived in Encinitas during the period of time when Paramahansa Yogananda (the Swami that Swami's is named after). This time period was about the 1930's- 1940's. At this time Encinitas, was well liked by Swami Yogananda and he settled there for sometime. Swami Yogananda was a capricorn and he was a very involved meditator and yoga practicioner. His foundation still exists in E...

Dreaming the Dark Times 3: Salvia and Mushrooms for Seers

  Salvia the diviner’s mint, is one of the most powerful psychedelics in the natural world. It along with Magic Mushrooms are used traditionally by Meso-American shamans (Mazatepec, Mazatec, Zapotec, etc) and my ancestors for purposes of healing and visions. Unequivocally, magic mushrooms which are containers of psilocin, psilocybin and baeocystin have been consumed by nearly all our ancestors including lighter skinned and nordic peoples. Salvia has only recently become a whole world phenomenon with many places banning it. Most western people take salvia as an extracted smoke, while most people in history chewed the leaves and burned them dried and unextracted. Salvia when taken orally as opposed to smoking seems to be the best focus of this article on dreaming. Some psychedelic effects are possible with this method especially if you are holding your saliva (spit) in your mouth for at least 20 minutes along with the herb or extract. Most of these are spiritual, central nervous syst...

Journey of Las Medicinas y Church of the Sacred Spiral

Dear Friends, Some of you joined us and many of you heard that last weekend we completed a beautiful series on the Magic Cactus with our Ethnobotany students. I held space along with some of my dearest friends and presented a series of Neo-Shamanic altars and rituals. The divine Earth we walked upon for our journey to healing was a blessed and sacred site that my family owns on the back side Palomar Mountain. As we got out of the city and into the country, I prayed for perfect weather and perfect community. Sunday throughout the ritual and the hiking that preceded said ritual, I was overwhelmed with GRACE for those who chose to stay behind and not attend this journey. I honored their path and allow them to continued to build trust in themselves and the medicine work and in nature and weather. When we arrived, the weather was perfect and mild and incredibly...there was rain everywhere except for where we hiked. All week and the day before, people were scared of bad weather and hard time...
