IBOGA
AND BOTANICALS
About Iboga
The root bark of the Tabernathe Iboga plant, also known as The Wood' is central to the Bwiti spiritual practice in West Central Africa mainly Gabon, Cameroon and the Republic of Congo and has been consumed for hundreds of years. Initiates of this practice take Iboga in massive doses, usually at night, as a rite of passage and to promote radical spiritual growth, stabilize the community and to heal deep-seated problems. It is also taken in micro doses on a regular basis, especially in connection with rituals, birth and tribe gatherings. After decades of legal challenges and persecution by the French colonial courts, in 2000, The Republic of Gabon's government set up measures to protect the continued existence of the Bwiti spiritual practice with Iboga, while also declaring it as a national treasure.
Like all spiritual practices, the journey with Iboga is an inner one that presents an opportunity to go deeper and beyond your personal stories and egos. Iboga sets the symbolic process of dying in motion. You prepare to say goodbye to the old and to welcome the new.
Compared to a stern but loving grandfather, Iboga is not interested in your stories nor does it allow you to hide behind the veils of illusion. Iboga will help you face and free yourself from the ego's defense mechanisms, blockages and negative patterns that no longer serve you.
It brings you back to your true nature, which is quiet and still, while also providing you with the insight to transform your daily life in a practical and profound way. Many have described this profound experience as the defragmentation of your hard disc and resetting the software.
