MAYDAY IS JAY-DAY!

(Next year, the first Saturday of May falls on May 1. We are recommending Sunday, May 2 or Monday May 3 in cities where there is significant conflict with other local events--or as a rain date. Of course, we understand that some schools have to do it on 4/20 because their school year is over by May, and that some northern cities have to do it a little later in May...)

Help us reach our goal of 300 cities worldwide!

To get on the poster for 2004--"Mayday is Jay Day"--check yr contact info and email me back telling me to add yr city to the List at the top of this email. Right now the last listing we have for you is as follows:

Eaton: Andy Fudge fudgeie@... 210 eaton lewisburg rd apt#61 Rally 12 noon -- lots of kick ass specialties

By the way, I lost about three weeks email not long after this year's event. Did anything happen on the first Saturday of May in yrour area? Numbers? Arrests? Media? Anything of interest happen, etc?

You can also call me at 212-677-4899.

Dana/cnw

P.S.: We are also interested in adding to our list of prestigious endorsers, which consists of pot activists well-known in their city or country. We need a name and phone number for each. Any suggestions?

P.P.S: We need on average $100 for each affiliate to print  and ship this year's poster.  If you can't send it, we have to raise it somewhere else.

 

HELP RAISE MONEY FOR THE MILLION MARIJUANA MARCH--BOOK A YIPPIE SPEAKER!

Recently we wrote you that we need on average $100 for each affiliate to print  and ship this year's poster--and that if you can't send it, we have to raise it somewhere else.

You can help. Go to http://www.yippiespeakers.com  Here's the good news: 20% of all speaker fees go to printing and operating expenses for the MMM 2004. (If you can get me booked personally it's 100%.)

Some of these speakers like Grace Slick and Hunter Thompson get $25,000 just for appearing at yr local university! (Some like Dennis Peron are available for a few thousand) Your local group gets 4% finders' fee.

What we need you to do is contact yr local on-campus activists and have them agitate their student affairs folks in charge of outside speakers  (or equivalent) to book some of our speakers. It's important to clarify that we are NOT  asking them to get this from the budget of their NORML or SSDP chapter, but from the campus office that books outside speakers. (At Kent State they call it the Office of Student Life, and they paid me $4,000 for a three hour appearance, which went straight to the printer.)

It's a good year for it. Things have come full-circle for Yippie! We have all the elements--an illegitimate  Republican President everyone hates at home, a quagmire war abroad--for the first time  since the '70's. And best of all, even though all our speakers support cannabis and oppose the drug war, they are Yippie, not legalization speakers, so you won't have to deal with demands from the university administration that you find some anti-drug speaker for "Balance" or you don't get the booking. (Since we are moving toward protests against the Republican Convention in NYC next August, to be fair they'd have to demand an opponent of protests, period, which is absurd.)

If you have a hot prospect,  email me right back; but since  about half of everything sent to this address "bounces", be sure to also put in a call to the speakers bureau at 212-677-7180, and leave a message if no one picks up.

Hi Dana.  As the founder of the Vt. Cannabis Coalition(in addition to all my other titles), I organized and sponsored the MMM last year in Burlington, Vt. in which all 3 TV affiliates covered the event in a positive light on their 6 and 11 o'clock news.  No arrests at any event in Burlington since we started doing this thing.  You can list me as a contact for the Burlington event as I will be working with Hardy Macia.
Thanks for all the info in the email you just sent out.

Italian Il Giornale: Al Qaeda Threatens to Nuke New York on February 2

Special Report

December 31, 2003, 12:03 AM (GMT+02:00)

The banner headline spread across the front page of Il Giornale, the
respected Milan daily reads:

"Al Qaeda: We will destroy New York within 35 days. Threat on the
Internet.
Countdown begins."

The threat was contained in a video clip featured on a web site
associated
with the fundamentalist terror group. It announced al Qaeda plans to
destroy New
York in a nuclear blast on February 2. Il Giornale claims the FBI
blocked and
removed the web site.

The video clip showed three possible scenarios: 1. A bomb or giant
fireball
from the skies that will cover the metropolis with a radioactive cloud.
2. A
storm of radioactive clouds that will topple skyscrapers one by one,
along with
the Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn Bridge. 3. An explosion on board a
charter
aircraft that will cause a radioactive cloud to spread over the city.

The video clip was accompanied by large, red-lettered Arabic captions
saying:
"If God wills it, the end of America is near."

DEBKAfile's counter-terrorism sources say they cannot verify the
authorship
or gauge the seriousness of the threat because the Internet site is no
longer
accessible. But the report appeared in a newspaper widely viewed as the
flagship of Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi. Such reports -
even if not
authenticated - tend to contribute to the mounting sense of alarm
generated by "
Orange Alert" in America and other Western countries. It comes against
the back
drop of appeals to New Year revelers to stay away from the traditional
New Year'
s Eve celebrations in Times Square, Rome's St. Peter's Square, Moscow's
Red
Square and London's Trafalgar Square - or even Disney World and the Las
Vegas

Strip. All these sites are surrounded by heavy security.

Mr Giordano, I appreciate your willness to helm myself but I don't need the info I requested sooner today.  I have recieved TWO weapon possesion threat from a neighbor since they find out about my willness to support harm reduction iniciatives. I have also been blocked email info by Mexican Federal Agents using myself as a political move.  Several months of email spaming and blocking of real threats has been keeping me stuck at my familie's humble home.  The Televisa media network from Mexico has been tracking and expossing me down and my family into public for several months as well.  Several Mexican Federal agents has been using illegal substances to fuel up the madness around myself and all my family members considering us as political toy practices and as a media show currupting ourselves.

Subject: Nov-L: Personal battle with cancer leads to Wis. Rep. to support Medical Marijuana Bill

Friday, Jan. 2, 2004


Wis. Rep. Supports Medical Marijuana Bill


MILWAUKEE (AP) - State Rep. Gregg Underheim's fight against prostate cancer
got him thinking about whether those suffering from cancer should be allowed
to use marijuana to cope with the pain.

The Oshkosh Republican has decided to go against his party's leadership and
introduce a bill that would let doctors prescribe marijuana for medical

reasons.

The decision represents a major shift in philosophy for a legislator who was
quoted in High Times magazine in the late 1990s opposing the legalization of
marijuana.

"Certainly, having gone through what I went through makes you think about
things differently. That affected my decision on this," Underheim said.

Underheim, chairman of the Assembly's Health Committee, plans a public
hearing on his bill this year.

Underheim, 53, underwent surgery in June 2002 to remove his cancerous
prostate. He then waited several days for test results that showed the
cancer had not spread.

"That was a day of great relief, but you think about things like that while
you're waiting to hear what the outcome was," he said. "You're wondering
about chemotherapy, that kind of stuff."

That experience prompted him to change his mind about the medicinal value of
marijuana.

"If you do the chemo, for a period of time you really feel miserable," he
said. "Then, just as you're getting better, it's time to do another chemo.
I've talked to a couple of doctors who say it's worthy, certainly, of
looking at."

Underheim knows his bill faces challenges, particularly among his fellow
Republicans who control the Legislature.

Assembly Speaker John Gard, R-Peshtigo, said Underheim's bill has "got a big

mountain to climb - I think he understands that the odds are stacked against
him."

Underheim said he doesn't think the average person would object to his bill.

"I think the public is much more comfortable with this than policy-makers
are right now," he said.

****!!!IBOGAINE TREATMENT NOW $1500 IN HOLLAND--CALL SARA, 0113134-624-1770 !!!****

From: dvarossi@...

Wanted to say hi, read the interesting article in MAPS
and wound up here.

Still haven't the slightest idea where 'here' is, I

understand these are elists but it seems like as good
a time as any to ask what is this place? Your alexa

most visited cross site list is: 2600 magazine, LOD
com, Phonelosers.org, takedown.com, chaos computer
club, Wired magazine, the l0pht (which goes to @stake
security) and the EFF site.

Reading the site, I don't understand any of it. Having
a great time at it too, thanks!

This is one of the greatest things I've ever read,

still don't understand it but I love it. I think
that's what I'm saying with my whole message.

http://www.mindvox.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MindVoxUI.woa/wa/staticpage%3fpagename=Trajectories

Now obviously, this explains why Gestalt is mostly
correct, EMDR works some of the time, and Primal
Therapy has the right idea. Schroedinger saw some
light in the darkness, Neitzsche saw darkness in the
light, and Hitler, Jesus, and Max Planck discussed it
over tea one day, with the Mad Hatter acting as an
independent peer-review committee, and Dostoyevsky
taking down the minutes -- but he wasn't paying
attention a lotta the time; this is okay 'cuz Godel
had a parabolic mic aimed at the whole-entire
scenario. Also, furthermore, this is only accurate on
every other Tuesday, of leap-years, unless Peter
Melchior manages to reintegrate John Lilly, and
Timothy Leary gives him some therapy.

Because sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, unless
Freud didn't say that, uhm, what did he say again, oh
yeah, "you people are all basically just totally
fucked up. Now, who took my cocaine, and where the
hell did my niece go... I'd call Sherlock Holmes to
figure this out, but he's off somewhere banging-up
speedballs. He's repressed anyway, and really needs to
get laid." Of course, this is only metaphorically a
parable, because Sherlock Holmes was a real person,
whereas Freud was a strung-out champion of law and
order, only in books, and on the astral planes.

But anyway, as anyone can see this only works on the
primary and secondary levels of quaternary dualism,
unless it doesn't. Christian Science, the Koran,
Buddhism, Shivaism, Scientology, and the Muslims, are

seeing at least part of the spectrum of possibility,
except when they're not. But it really doesn't matter
because Socrates knew it -- tho' he didn't write it
down -- Plato (who was a whiny little fuckhead)
plagiarized it, and Aristotle retrieved and refined
it.

Strings are a good theory, but sometimes Viagra works

better, because as Heisenberg explained, the
Uncertainty Principle doesn't really start to throb
unless the strange attractor is wearing a mini and

heels, in which case non-linear dynamics will cause
the butterfly with broken wings to nose-dive, this
will make Voltaire depressed a lot of the time; but
ultimately it's all-good because when Freud dropped
the cigar, Fromm picked it up and re-lit it, Sartre
stuck it in his mouth but never inhaled, and Jung
understood all of it, in its entire totality, some of
the time -- even though he didn't smoke cigars.

Baudelaire and Rimbaud lived it, Shelley kinda flopped
around a lot and drowned, but his wife nailed it;
Byron also nailed a lot of things -- lacking a
camcorder and a web site, on occasion he even wrote
some of them down. Tesla and Willhelm Reich had it all
written out in invisible ink on SekRet DocumenTz,

hidden under an orgone accumulator, until THEY, THEM,
and THOSE PEOPLE, ruined everything. Escher took the

remnants and made a moebious-strip out of them. Once
the colors got all smeared, C.S. Lewis and Dr. Seuss
summed it all up in one cohesive whole, understandable
by any child; however, when most adults try to
cross-connect the spirals of rainbows, they just end
up with mud.

Lately though, I'm starting to have a lot of dreams
about sex. This means its time to take a really long
plane-ride. In conclusion, black-lights are pretty
groovy, but somehow -- for me anyway -- lava-lamps,
just get real old, real fast. The 'Dead mahn --
Yahhhhhhhh -- Uhm, I don't like the dead; it's not an
option dude, they're the Dead Mahn, yahhhhh! -- Uhm,
okay, I guess, do you have any Nine Inch Nails?

A more sensible question is, where can I get ibogaine

in the U.K.?

Cheers
David

....hey,

I just got a really good batch of rootbark, some 400gms or so, from Jean
Claude (Cameroon)
and a few seeds as well... at 700euros/kilo it is by far the best pricing

for rootbark out there...

Problem is, there's no way I can eat this stuff... I've had the real-real
stuff in Cameroon, the kind
that goes active in your mouth, releasing fumes and the four horses of the
Apocalypse... and I'm
extremely grateful for that experience, as I'm dead-sure I could not have
pulled it off had I had
previous ibo experiences... And since then, I've had HCl and Indra on a
number of occasions,
and that requires a few self-inflicted face slaps to step up to the plate...
unless it's your maiden
voyage, in which case, bon fuckin' voyage, ya lucky tourist
bastard....(don't waste your 1 free-pass)

It's been my contention however that HCl and Indra, by lacking the
bulk/fiber, don't match up to the
raw stuff...  while I don't doubt the efficacy of HCl, it doesn't heat up
your stomach like you swallowed
a steam-engine or something... and I miss that... call me a romantic
fool....

So rootbark, I thought, hey, 20 gms- maybe 40 tops, no big deal, last but
not least on my wishlist...
So some 3 months ago, I got my first batch and I was real happy about the
taste not being anywhere
near as foul, in fact, I was ecstatic about it... But that was extremely
deceptive, as every spoonful just
got exponentially nastier... and wouldn't you know it, that batch was
alkaloid-free, so no take-off, not
even trailers....

Now this batch is much better... how do I know..? Well, it's *#@! times
nastier than the first one...
How nasty? After chewing on a small piece (that I let soak in water) for
like 3 secs , I had to brush
my tongue twice, especially the sides... it just permeated my head...

So I'm hoping to do some home-made extract with vinegar/alcohol or whatever,
because otherwise it's
going to just sit there and mock me... Ideally, I would like to just reduce
it by half or so, take the stinger
out of it,. and still be left with some bulk if possible...

Jenks, if you're reading this, a multitude of thanks for that link and the

body of work that you've
put into puzzlepiece.org.... I'm probably going to have a few questions as
I've never been even
remotely interested in 'extraction' or chemistry for that matter, but first
I'll cover the various other
articles on the site...

I hope 400 gms of good rootbark can produce enough base-extract, or whatever
I'm supposed to call it..


all the best,
Adam Gur


P.S. Can anyone name the poem from the following- been hunting this for
years;
"...I've been a beast, at the feast, before I became a man..."  ...tia....

From: nicks22@...

Hi Adam,

I recall well being in the back of that temple/shack in the Cameroun with
you a few years ago! It is indeed a hideous experience to have to eat the
stuff raw, and, imo, an unnecessary one.

The following recipe, pasted below, for an alcohol-water extraction I've

used a few times on myself and others and it's always given great results.
The key to avoiding nausea is to keep straining off the liquid from the
sediment. And, of course, to shout "bandji" before drinking it!

all the best

Nick

Put the rootbark into a large clean jar and add approx half a 70cl bottle of
vodka, two cups of red wine and the juice of a lemon. Some users like to
also add a half-teaspoon of vinegar.
Shake vigorously and then leave to stand for one week, shaking occasionally.

After one week has passed, empty the contents into a bowl or pan and place
gently over boiling water. DO NOT DO THIS CLOSE TO A NAKED FLAME AS ALCOHOL
IS HIGHLY FLAMMABLE. ENSURE THE AREA IS WELL VENTILATED.

Alcohol boils at around 80 degrees centigrade, (as opposed to water which
boils at 100). When the alcohol has boiled gently away, remove the bowl and
strain the contents through cloth. (The solid that remains should no longer
have the bitter taste it did prior to beginning the extraction. If it does,
mix everything back together and return it to the jar for another week. Then

repeat the above.)

Assuming that the solid is not now distinctly bitter, discard it and allow
the liquid that remains after straining to stand for about 12 hours.

The extract is now ready for consumption. For details on administration,

obtain medical approval and consult one of the protocols on our treatment
page.

Storage - It is recommended you consume the extract within a few days of
making it. However, if necessary, it can be stored for about 2 - 3 weeks in
a domestic refrigerator. After this period it will begin to brew, and the
composition will be altered. Smelling the extract will tell you if it's
started to deteriorate.

From: laurentsazy@...

My Friend,

Very good, you find some iboga roots . Do you know gabonese eat iboga roots(
fresh bark or dried iboga) like that from centuries and they have the
knowledge. Do you know how iboga works?. Are you a shaman to eat yourself
iboga?
Please, if you want to take iboga, why you don't go to Gabon and eat iboga
in a ritual Bwiti? It is 100% better and extraordinary and shamans will
teach you a lot.
Taking iboga in your room with friends will discredit iboga in the future
and we tried to do opposite. It is not a game. Iboga is a drug( the best
drug) but not a game to be out of order. If taste is nasty, it is
necessary... You have a lot to learn my friend.........

I wish you a good time with your homemade extract.

Laurent / kombo KA

From: iboga_planteur@...

Are you sure your stuff is Iboga, what I've heard from Jean Claude in
Cameroon is not really good!

From: adamg@...

Salut Laurent,

First of all, I love your photos man...

I guess you didn't understand the part where I've already
been initiated by the Bwiti- in Cameroun alas, not Gabon.

And yes I am a shaman, I live in Israel, if I throw a stone
from my balcony, I hit at least two shamans and one meshuganah.

We're all in this together, Laurent, we're all shamans, we're all bullshit
artists, we're all spirit... same difference..

And fresh iboga does taste like montezuma's revenge served cold.

It's the world's greatest tough-love remedy; one taste and you know,
this is fuckin' personal. And as  I was saying, I think fresh root is best,

better than HCl or any extract, I just really wish I could stomach it.
But if I can't, I'm supposed to just walk away?

From your email I realize you are a decent person, one with dignity.
But I don't like the part where you say, 'they've been doing this for
centuries
and they have the knowledge'. They have customs and beliefs and purposes
that I do not require. The music was amazing though.

Knowledge is one hot potato - catch it, toss it, there's more coming at you.
Try and pocket it and you're going to do some funky dancing for us... that's
where's 'pants on fire' comes from. I'm not saying they are trying to pocket
the
knowledge but come on, this gift is for all of humanity and I'm sorry but
I'll be glad to hear whatever anyone wishes to impart but I'm not following
anyone anywhere... I'm not asking for permission, supplication or

directions; I
don't want to go see the ancestors, I'm my own ancestor. You can take iboga
with
all the trepidation in the world, or you can hop on your cosmic harley and
rip a tear
thru a couple of dimensions. Ruffle a few angel feathers while you're at it.

That's all just my way of saying, iboga is 'self-actualization' and you
can't accomplish
that by prostrating yourself and requesting this liberation from, or thru,
others.

Btw, Iboga the teacher-spirit has a great sense of humor too. You just got
to have
your wits about you.

Nick old man!!!
 
You went thru that stuff as though it was cornflakes...
You left them stumped you know that..? They gave you a frigging
bowl and you just gobbled it up and a then few glasses and you
downed those as well... all within the first *#@! hour!!!!
They never had someone pull a stunt like that, let alone a white guy...
Of course, you left the galaxy for about a week and you didn't know
any of us when you came back, for over a day you didn't even know
your own name... I'll never forget that, looking at you and seeing

someone who's just landed back on earth and is waiting to pick up
his identity....
 
Those were the good ol' days.. ok, maybe not....
 
Btw, I heard that one can take rootbark rectally... I presume it's not the

pieces and bits but some kind of enemaic concoction... on one hand, this
apparently bypasses the liver but it's supposedly more powerful and no
nausea nor throwing up...
 
Any recipe you can impart?

Adam are you sure what you got from Jean Claude is 
Iboga, some of my friends bought from him, it wasn't Iboga, it looked like it and tasted like it though, did you try it? just a spoon should be enough to make you feel alert and focused. test it please.

From: ross@...

I wonder if it is possible to download the many lives of
experience that the Bwiti have with iboga in a single
initiation? Or to make a judgement about what it's about.

It seems like one underlying difference here is between
collective and individual shamanism. What interests me
about the collective shamanism of the Bwiti is the notion
that a group of people might come to a deeper understanding
of a sacrament than a shaman working alone or with isolated
teachers. That understanding would require some translation
from one culture to another, and even within a culture may
take more time to convey than a single initiation.

One thing that might make translation more difficult is that
the individualism of our society (finding its low point in
consumerism) encourages us to take things home for ourselves
rather than engage in a collective process.

This doesn't invalidate anything that one might learn on one's
own, nor is it to say that what comes from such a group
should be accepted uncritically.

It took me over a year of listening to Pygmy music regularly
before the collective nature of it began making sense. At first

it was almost like an interesting noise that I couldn't take
for long at a time. Now it seems like almost a purer form of
Bwiti music than the actual Bwiti music I happen to have. This
makes some sense in that the Bwiti credit the Pygmies with
giving them iboga, and Pygmy culture seems to have been constant

since at least as long ago as the ancient Egyptians.

Bill Ross

From: adamg@...

hi Bill,

I think a person could download no more than his or her
own ibo experience... and that's more than plenty in itself.
The collective body of Bwiti experience only exists in the realm
of mental constructs; it cannot reside with a person nor conveyed
to another. You can touch a tree but not a forest.

Passing judgement on it would therefore be nonsensical. The same
goes for cultural, traditional and religious structures and beliefs.

Knowledge, on the other hand, is a free-for-all; it is only as valid
as it is proffered, assimilated and cross-pollinated.

My one contestation is that the Bwitis are not iboga's custodians.

Nor the medical profession its' dispensers.

I like the part of 'engaging in a collective process'-- but I

wasn't aware of the bwiti's collective shamanism. How so?
I know that initiation is a one-time deal, and unless one
has voyaged to the land of the ancestors, one has failed and
will never be 'banzi'. Other than that, iboga is really an annual,
ten-day religious ceremony where the congregation only sips
minute amounts of 'automatique', the iboga brew...

My preference is for people to undergo their experience
as part of a small group comprised of strangers, as opposed
to friends. To share this experience with strangers is very powerful.
As only a stranger can represent the rest of humanity. It is as though
all of mankind, thru this stranger, has beared witness to your
rebirth and then you realize that you are also bearing witness in return...
I managed recently to bring together such a group. One close friend
was very relunctant to experience this with these unknown others, but
I managed to convey this point and even though the rootbark was
almost entirely alkaloid-free, the experience of participating in this,
vomitting and all, with strangers, was something he still cherishes...

There are other such things that can sanctify, intensify and heck,
I'll say it, beautify one's ibo experience. We need to make this list
a collective shamanistic-cartographic endeavor....

About the Pygmy music you listen to-are these recordings

of Baka Pygmies? I have 2 cds, "Spirit of the Forest" and
"Heart of the Forest" by Martin Cradick...
'Heart' is pure pygmy music while 'Spirit' is Martin jamming
with them.... very cool stuff indeed....

all the best,

Adam

From: adamg@...

Salut planteur,
 
Yes in fact like I said, the little that I tried was extremely bitter and brought back memories
from my initiation in Cameroon. So I don't think I'm going to have a problem with this.
 
If you wish to send me a sample, I'll be glad to make comparisons and post the results... If you sell
better rootbark, at a reasonable price, I would be interested in doing business with you.
 
I must say though that Jean Claude has been honorable in our transactions, so I'd want for people to know that.
 
I don't understand why some of your friends would buy from him in the first place.
 
all the best,

Adam

 

From: nicks22@...

I have to say I think your post was a bit strong, really, Laurent. Shamen
the world over have for millenia battled (some not so hard!) with the
tendency to create a "cult of the individual" from their work. And, frankly,
posts like yours only reinforces this tendency. The notion of the "great
healer" is a strong ego archetype and one with only limited real use in the
work itself. What starts out as a healing gift can easily soon become simply
a milieu for self-agrandisement. No one has exclusive rights over iboga,
neither corporations nor ethnic or religious groups. I'm sure there a plenty
of pygmy groups who complain that the Fang and Missoko tribespeople are
inadequate to become Bwiti, for instance. Who's to say how and where iboga

should be eaten.

The drug is strongly astral in nature, and has thus direct connection with
the formative, primal state of existence from which our own conscious
experience of reality descends. Meaning, roughly, that it can manifest
pretty much according to its own agenda when, where, and unto whom it wants.

In addition to this, the hardship of African initiations might be considered
necessary for humans from certain cultural and racial backgrounds, but I
can't imagine this is so for everyone.

Iboga is a self-liberating drug and it is not necessary to use it in ritual
context. It's beyond all that

Put another way, I understand that in a Bwiti initiation there

is a lot going on, someone said it's like a whole village,
each with a different role, working to enable your rebirth.
It is claimed that this activity works with the iboga.

Given the amount of intention involved (for example the harp
player is said to be actually married to his instrument in a
formal ceremony), I bet it is impossible to fathom what is being
done and why in one visit. And given the comparison of Bwiti
rhythms to theta waves in the brain, I can imagine all that
intention may reflect an understanding of humanity, accumulated
through many people's experiences with iboga as initiates and
facilitators.

The 'it takes a village' angle - all those people cooperating
and developing what they do over time.

Can anyone else confirm this? Do Ngangas and musicians go through

anything further than the initiation? I have heard that some people
(civilians as it were) do the larger doses on a more ongoing basis.

I have 'Heart' and like it; so far have listened mostly to
Turnbull's recordings of Mbuti, and Ba-benzele also sounds
good. These two would make a good addition to 'Heart':

  SFCD 40401  MBUTI PYGMIES OF THE ITURI RAINFOREST (SMITHSONIAN/FOLKWAYS,1992)
              (merges both of Turnbull's original releases)
  CD 5107     AFRICA : THE BA-BENZELE PYGMIES (ROUNDER,1998)

Just scored 'Bayaka' (out of print) on ebay yesterday, so
am looking forward to that. There are big similarities between
all the Pygmy recordings I've heard, no matter what the group.

Here's a big list of recordings of Pygmies:

I can't confirm it by first person observation but, everything I have been
told or read indicates individuals may take high doses of iboga on more than one
occasion.  The Bwiti initiation may be distinct from other high dose use.  I
would like Laurent to comment on this but, from his photographic exhibit <
http://ibogaine.org/ehoumou19.html> as it seems Ehoumou conducts Bwiti initiations
that he is using high or mid dose iboga on these occasions for medical

consultations.  It is common knowledge that low doses are used for remembrance and
stimulant purposes by chapel members during Bwiti initiations and possibly
other Bwiti rites.  There are reports of Bwiti and possibly others taking high
doses of iboga on more than one occasion for various reasons other than Bwiti
initiations, principally for healing purposes it appears. But, the exact doses
used are not given and doses vary from individual to individual.  As to the
annual aspect of the rites, some rites are annual and others are when necessary or
indicated.  Sazy's photographs show both but, let's hear from Laurent on
this. http://www.ibogaine.org/sazy.html

Hi Bill,

That is one bet you would lose.

It is like a whole village, unless it's not.
Everyone plays a role, but most play the role of attendees, just as
any congregation, except there's almost no sitting down...

And just like churches, mosques and synagogues everywhere,
they may be running a full-house with top-billings or getting by on
a meager turn-out.

And all this does not matter in the least.

Btw, I'll add a small jpg to this email, which you and others may find
interesting...
That's St. Michael, not Jesus, savior and patron of iboga, but this is not
true for all Bwitis.

I would have agreed with you, from my arrival there till a little into my
initiation, that I
am not in a position to understand nor assess anything I was witnessing, let
alone all
things Bwiti.

But once you take iboga, you wake-up to your higher self,
and you *know*;  you flicked on a floodlight in a dark-room.

And the one thing you can take to the bank is that the whole ceremony is
just a show...

No offense intended, and it's a great show... but I've been backstage.

This show comes with a programme, and I'm not using this word
lightly. According to my dic', 'programme' means, among
other things-

1) A system of projects or services intended to meet a public need
2) A performance (or series of performances) at a public presentation
3) A series of steps to be carried out or goals to be accomplished

And yes this programme serves the bwiti initiates, and the continuity
of the bwiti tradition, culture and way of life. But you and westerners in
general would be in for a rude awakening. Because....

The programme is to make your immediate surroundings a living hell and
they are very, very accomplished in that respect. Because  the iboga, for
the
initiate, is intended strictly for 'voyaging' and the best way they can send
you
off is to freak you right out of yourself... It's all part of the show...

It starts with painting you red, then the 2 wreaths that crisscross your
chest like
ammo-belts and the crown one. Once you lie down, (on your right side only,
for
the next 3 days) the crushing of the wreaths releases this awful,
nauseating, fragrance
that just torments the hell out of you.

They also burn bouquets of the same stuff from the other side of the wall,
and the wall
doesn't reach the floor, see, in fact, there's almost a foot missing at the
bottom, right by
our heads, and a little further in, another embankment, maybe 3 feet high..
so while you
can't see anything, every once in a while, they smoke a bouquet in this
space, and this
too just overwhelms you...

It gets better... the music.. yes, there was the harpsichord, but also a
dozen wood logs for
drums, and most were not the hollow cool-sounding ones; the cacophony is
literally intended
to crack open your head...

And then you tune-in to this alluring and seductive melody..

Until you snap out in shock- how the hell did I listened to that thru all
the racket? How can I
know/follow the harp player around in the other room, with or without the
racket? How can
I even tell that he's playing it very gently, almost too softly for normal
hearing conditions?

The answer is 'assemblage point', which is sort of the focal point of your
being.
And in our daily lives, we are too attached to, and identified with, our own
physical bodies
to let our 'assemblage point' go wandering about... Just knowing about this
can go a very long
way on your next ibo trip... (For more info on the 'assemblage point', I
recommend Jon Whale's
'The Catalyst of Power'...)

Here's another personal example.. I'm lying on my side, supporting my head
in an upright position
with my forearm, and there's this little bug crawling on the floor next to
me... I'm checking him out..
not fascinated by it, just observing him, but in doing so I'm zooming in,
easily, and checking him out
some more, and now he's occupying most of my field of vison, as though he
was the size of a tank,
and then the size of a macy-parade balloon-character, and I'm checking out
his under-side!!!
-"whoooaa" is right, I snap out and realize, I never 'physically' moved an
inch...

I attended a 10-day vipassana retreat (meditation) a year ago, where they
teach you to focus your 'self'
or 'assemblage point' on this one tiny spot just underneath the nose,
between the nostrils and to shrink
that spot so that your 'presence' occupies less and less space...
With practice, you can experience/merge with a single cell, in its entirety,
access the dna, or go further
and experience quantum reality... Until less than a century ago, no western
scholar could make heads
or tails from eastern esoteric writings; we had to first discover quantum
physics for ourselves...

And there I was, knowing that this was something that I actually experienced
in africa; I knew,
intimately, parts of my body, anywhere I chose to roam-scan-know, and I knew
that I would never manage
to put any of it into words-- like Neo in the first Matrix, I was
'mouthless'... I didn't know, though, that I
could go even beyond the spot/area on my body... now I'm aware of this
potentiality and so are you.


So you could attend, in theory, a great, authentic, bwiti initiation, or a
lousy one, with an abbe
who rummages thru your bags and where money and valuables disappear, where
the
abbe's father molests 7 year old girls, where people bare naked aggression
in hourly matches of
bravura and where a whole lot of shit just goes on and on for the pettiest
of reasons..

And you know what, it makes no difference, because you are going to take
iboga and flick the light
on, you're going to go backstage and laugh at that old 'you' that set out to
meet noble, enlightened
spiritual tribesmen and ended up in an african hillbillia, and even then,
you're going to see yourself
in them- maybe be lucky enough to turn around to glance at the initiate next
to you, who happens
to be the trembling, bug-eyed 8 year old daughter of the abbe and
connect/download/merge with
her... even if just for a few secs...

 ...so you'd loose the bet, Bill, because iboga would not be iboga, if it
required anything, other
than you stepping up to the plate....

That's not to say I advocate taking iboga without a guide... But we need
western guides for
western initiates... we won't approach the cultural heritage of the bwiti,

but we've got to start
somewhere....


Many thanks on the Pygmy music link/info, I'd love to get my hands on more
for my upcoming
voyage...

sincerely,
Adam Gur

Two other African albums that remind me of Bwiti music:

  Soubindoor by Jali Musa Jawara (harp and other instruments)
  Masters of the African Mbira, Ephat Mujuru /ARC MUSIC 1549
    (some tracks, including the 1st)

Both include vocals.
I see the mbira one has samples you can listen to on bn.com.
Other mbira albums did not impress me the same way.

Bokayé Nick,

 

Like I replied to Adam, or others, I just give my feeling and observations
after working with Ngangas-shaman since 3-4Years and see many
initiations(black and white people) with iboga.
In the beginning I refused the protocole or the ritual. After long talk with
Mallendi, I understand and find an extraordinary technology even clapping my
hands all night like a machine and repeating pygmés song in which you
understand nothing...etc even seating on a hard piece of wood all night, and
facing the mirror etc...

 I'm working with Ngangas mallendi and his Spiritual father Nganga
Ehoumou(who was formed in pygmés campement in Congo 40 years ago).
 I really can confirm about knowledge. They really know how to use leaves,
root, animals, and read in invisible. They know to read your body and to
read Nature. And much more I can't descripted
Yes, for sure there is ego but who is not.
 
Shamanism is an old technology and if you want to learn it , it's better to
have an adviser. Who is going to teach you the bird language or what is the
parrot feather rule in the process. Oral language so you need teachers and
have experience. First you do and after you have explications. There is an
explication.
Even in Gabon I saw gabonese in the Bwiti making mistake after being looking
for iboga. It was like iboga but not.
Banzi were lucky that Mallendi check it before. How can you recognize your
iboga root than others?
For iboga initiations It is 3 days with protocoles (to die and rebirth ).
I mean, it is a delicate operation. But they have natural tools to do it.
And the protocole is to help you to see and to "fly" correctly. You are
never loose on the road. Even with them it is a fucking experience!
And it is bigger than that. And the way they do it give you an extraordinary
sens of understanding.
Nobody has the exlusive right on iboga and nobody could tell me where I can
eat iboga......well Do you know the story on Lauren Miller who tried to put

a patent on ayahuasca. With the great gift, pygmés give to us, we must
respected ,and listen how Shamans from Gabon Or peru can teach us.
after many centuries of colonialism, slavery,and now economic roberry with
petrol and forest I will prefer the royalties going back to people in Gabon
or to give money for initiation to Mallendi who is a shaman who tried to do
a lot than to market system or pharmaceutical or going to take iboga in
hospital. I really prefer the "folklore" of the ritual which is not
folklore, but really serious, natural and ecologic...etc
Why do you think religion and now movies, fictions and scientific research
give more importance in "shamanism". Why J.Narby in cosmic snake makes link
between shamanism, language, DNA,plants...Why Mallendi transform himself to
a panther for healing, why prehistoric shamans paint wall in
grottes.........why Bouddhist are talking about réincarnation, what about
mineral, vegetal, animal , human cycle,
How with iboga you can connect with past present and future and learn to
see? Iboga, bwiti and yourself  will answer to all yours questions and give
you the good road to follow. Bwiti is like the oldest university for human
to survive in rainforest. Ngangas explain all from the top of your head to
your feet, from all your body to environment around(the world of forest).
they are teachers like in school.

I hope this will explain why I prefer people going to have experience in a
good place where grow iboga naturally and where people practise it since
centuries (paléolithic time).Pygmés are probably the oldest people from

where we all come from.
Also it will be probably the experience of your life and you will discover a
fantastic tradition really in the future.

As I said before, Mallendi is trying to open a village in South Gabon, a new
village for initiations and more. I just can invite people to visit him and
to see how things happen there.( you can have information on bwiti.com or
mallendi@...).
You know it is not my business, I just did photo on what I see . I'm not
Christian, jews or bouddhist, muslem etc maybe just trying to be
"religere"(latin language) . Iboga is probably the tree of knowledge, the
root of time, something we do respect so much because it is sacred.

For sure, I agree with you. And, furthermore, a lot of the work done in
shamanism and also therapy requires a strong ego. You aren't going to be
able to lead people into their own fear if you come on to them like a
dithering, uncertain idiot. A bit of bravado definitely has its uses. And,
in both Western and African settings, a bit of showmanship doesn't go amiss
either. BUT, it's also, imo, worth being aware that the risk of all this
ego-strengthening is that you, as a shaman, therapist, or individual,
ultimately MISS the bigger picture. Developing psychic or shamanic powers
has the associated risk of the individual (so-called) becoming highly
identified with his or her role as shaman, and using it to cover over all
the places of vulnerability where their own actual liberation is to be
found.

Ultimately, there's no difference between liberating yourself or liberating
others. But someone locked into a shaman trip is unlikely to understand the
immense and liberating truth in this statement
