Ayahuasca -  therapies

Sapan Inka

These words come from the RUNASIMI language (RUNA = HUMAN BEING and SIMI = TONGUE or LANGUAGE) and can literally be translated as GREAT INCA, although these words or title really indicate a spiritual hierarchy which existed in Incan times and was used to denominate a special kind of priest of a high spiritual rank who was part of the Incan nobility and had the capacity to lead other Incas and to connect with high spiritual powers.

OBJECTIVES

This project seeks the spiritual and cultural reconstruction of Peru´s original nations who inherited the legacy of our Incan ancestors.

Our work is specially oriented towards the children´s cultural and spiritual education.

Our main work tool is the medico-spiritual use we make of the Ayahuaska Master plant.

The Ayahuasca is the key which allows us to establish inter-relations with other cultures in the world.

The Sapan Inka Project´s goals are:

1. To support for the recognition of the Ayahuasca as a social medicine practice, performing a task of worldwide intercultural integration.
2. To Give orientation to native communities in order to help them achieve their own self-development.
   
3. To Create an active network of contacts among individuals and institutions with whom we share compatible ideas and goals and with whoever who seek human development, so as to perform cultural interchanges which would allow us all to enrich ourselves spiritually.
4. To devote in the search of methods for the Self-Knowledge and the consciousness exploration.
5. To contribute with the psychic health of the human being.

Funds recollected through programmed workshops will be used to meet the Sapan Inka Project´s goals and will allow us to give help and support to the native communities´ children with whom we will be working and thus, will be useful for the growth and diffusion of the project as such.
