Awakening the Cosmic Serpent: Shamanism & Plant Teachers In This Transformative Time, An Evolver Intensive starting Jan.23,2011

Throughout the Western World, people increasingly participate in indigenous shamanic ceremonies using psychedelic plants to open a path to deep personal insights and high spiritual truths. These plants -- including mushrooms, peyote, ayahuasca, and salvia divinorum -- are revered by ancient tribal societies as potent teachers capable of healing the body, expanding the mind, and strengthening community. 
 

The renowned anthropologist Jeremy Narby has explored these questions for over two decades. In his much-admired books, including The Cosmic Serpant and Shamans Through Time, Jeremy has shared his wisdom and insights. For the first time, in this special video teleseminar series, he will pursue these questions through two exclusive online lectures, and one-on-one discussions with four of the world's leading experts on the shamanic use of mind-altering plants: Stanislav Grof, Wade Davis, Kat Harrison and Luis Eduardo Luna. 

You will be part of this unique online event -- unlike any in the history of consciousness studies --· watching the live video stream and asking your questions directly to these inspirational pioneers. 

This course gives you the tools you need to integrate the shamanic knowledge offered by teacher plants into your life, so you can fully embrace the change called for by this time of global transformation.

This course takes place on 6 consecutive Sundays, from January 23 through March 6 (there's no call on Sunday February 13) and you can participate from your laptop anywhere in the world with a broadband connection. The video above was recorded using the same system that's used for the online course. It doesn't require you to download or install any special software. If you can watch a YouTube video, you can take part in this course.  

Introductory Lecture

Sunday, January 23, 3:00 pm EST

In the first call, Jeremy will recount his own experiences of living for two years with the Ashaninca Indians and how their intimate knowledge of psychoactive plants introduced him to the shamanic world view, and fueled his commitment as an activist on behalf of the rainforest and its indigenous inhabitants. He will also discuss his long experience trying to integrate shamanic knowledge into his Western mind frame, with a focus on his groundbreaking initiatives to bring science and shamanism together. 

The next 4 seminars are devoted to one-on-one conversations between Jeremy and our featured guests, followed by a Q & A session in which you can take part. This will be a live, dynamic experience in which you become part of a community of students sharing real time with some of the most inspiring visionaries of our era.  

In the last seminar, on March 6 at 3:00 p.m. EST, Jeremy will provide a comprehensive conclusion that will include student feedback.
