Livro CELESTIAL PLANTS EN Web Welcome to the Celestial Garden. After years of creative research and cultivating experiences relating to ethnobotanical plants, we present you with the book of plants from the Celestial Garden. The book in your hands was written to provide information and offer clarity about the nature of the plants and products in the Celestial Garden. The information you find here emerged through extensive fieldwork and many travels, reading, testing, utilizing and applying, planting and growing, and living through many interactions with Indigenous peoples and the reports of several collaborators also engaged in ethnobotanical research. If you find any information in this book to be mistaken or inadequate, or if you have any additional information to what is written here, please let us know so we can improve our work and expand the depth of knowledge. All information found here is only for educational purposes. We do not recommend you to ingest any of the plants we are working with. Usage and eventual consequences of it are under the full responsibility of the each individual person. At this point, I would like to thank everybody that collaborated, supported and believed in our work during the years. Especially Lobu and Daniel for their continuous help and effort, Miag for the design, Paula for the translation of the book, and all our families and friends, plant lovers, alchemists and appreciators of all the ancient medicines explored here. A special thanks to the Great Spirit and our spirit guides and protectors, without their help and guidan- ce this would never be possible.

Amongst other illnesses asthma and bronchitis were treated with Ephedra. Ephedra comes from a plant that has a few powerful active compounds, of which ephedrine is the most useful. Over the past few years Ephedra has gained much more attention for its side-effects: an increased metabolism, plus the thermeogenic and fat burning qualities that come along with that. This gives the body stimulation and provides energy. Origin: USA Traditional preparation: tea or tincture of the herb. The seeds can be eaten just like this. They give a lot of energy. Around fifty seeds are needed. How to Plant: this plant grows best on ground rich in clay. They need a warm and dry climate and just a bit of water. Hawaiian Baby Woodrose Seeds (Argyreia nervosa) Hawaiian Baby Woodrose is a member of the Convolvulaceae family, related to Morning Glory. Baby Woodrose is found in Asia, Madagascar, Haiti, Hawaii and other places. The Hawaiian Baby Woodrose plant is a large-growing vine reaching lengths of 10 Meters. The beautiful, ornamental vines have large, heart-shaped leaves and clusters of flowers. Hawaiian Baby Woodrose is used in Ayurvedic medicine to increase intelligence, memory and life span. Origin: Brazil Tradicional preparation: in Ayurvedic medicine, the whole plant is used. Dried, in powder or fresh. The seeds (1 to 5 seeds) can be eaten to produce entheogenic effects. They need to be peeled until the seed becomes almost white, like a peeled almond. In order to do so, it helps to leave them around 1 minute soaked in water. Some people like to grind them and leave them for 1 night in cold water, then filter and drink only the water. How to plant: soak the seeds for a few hours, then cover them with earth and keep them moist until they sprout after several days. Argyreia nervosa needs warm climate, a lot of water and sun and a lot of space for the roots. In cold climate this plant will grow only indoors. From 10 seeds usually 6 sprout. This plant needs a lot of space for the roots. In pots, it will not develop well. Risks: be careful when you plant it. You don’t want it to be close to your house or to a plant that you like, because it might destroy roofs and even walls, and it usually kills the plant on which is growing on. It grows well on fences, though. When eaten, it can cause heavy stomach issues and illness throughout the whole body. To avoid that, the seeds have to be prepared well. In case of intoxication, Kava Kava can help, which is an antidote for strychnine, the toxine that the plant contains. KEEP THE SEEDS OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! 5 Iboga Seeds (Tabernanthe iboga) Iboga is a perennial rainforest shrub native to the regions of western Central Africa. It has a long history of ritual use by several indigenous peoples living in and around the Gabon province of Central Africa including the Babongo, Mitsogo and Fang people, for whom it occupies a central role in their religious practices. Iboga is especially important in the initiation of the Bwiti religion where it is said to allow the initiate to journey to the land of the dead, learn about past lives, future problems and see the true self. The plant is conside- red sacred by members of the Bwiti and some claim that Iboga is the original Tree of Knowledge from the Bible. Our Iboga is ethically harvested from old Iboga-trees. Origin: Cameroon Traditional preparation: in tribes that consume Iboga they eat the fresh root bark in their initiations and rituals. How to Plant: Iboga takes almost 2 months to sprout and needs a constant warm and humid environment. The plant grows only in tropical regions. Jurema Seeds (Mimosa hostilis) Also known as Mimosa tenuiflora and Ju- rema, the rootbark of this tree has an inte- resting role in the history and present day manifestations of psychedelic shamanism. It is the only known plant that can be used for an orally ingested brew that, without the aid of another plant, induces visionary experiences similar to Ayahuasca. In Brazilian history it was used in the Vinho de Jurema, a ceremonial preparation and ingestion of this plant. Rumour has it that the tradition was extinct and recently picked up again. Currently there are only 7 tribes left that work with this plant. For medicinal uses, a tea or decoction is made. It treats skin problems, like burns, ulcers and injures, among others. It has antimicrobial, antifungal, analgesic, rege- nerative, cicatrizing, anti-inflammatory and anti-aging properties. It is currently used for dying leather. Origin: Brazil How to Plant: Jurema grows in climates of seasonal rains where the humidity levels change substantially during the year. Coat scarification helps the germination process. Light has no effect in germination.

  • Charlatans, Seekers, and Shamans: the Ayahuasca Boom in Western Peruvian Amazonia
    CHARLATANS, SEEKERS, AND SHAMANS: THE AYAHUASCA BOOM IN WESTERN PERUVIAN AMAZONIA By Joshua E. Homan Submitted to the graduate degree program in Anthropology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. ________________________________ Chairperson: Dr. Bartholomew Dean ________________________________ Dr. John Janzen ________________________________ Dr. John Hoopes Date Defended: May 5th, 2011 The Thesis Committee for Joshua E. Homan certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: CHARLATANS, SEEKERS, AND SHAMANS: THE AYAHUASCA BOOM IN WESTERN PERUVIAN AMAZONIA ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Bartholomew Dean Date approved: May 5th, 2011 ii ABSTRACT Joshua E. Homan, MA Department of Anthropology, May 2011 University of Kansas Ayahuasca, an entheogenic beverage endemic to the Amazon, has been utilized by indigenous peoples in the region for hundreds of years for a wide range of purposes. Recently however, this beverage has entered into the Occidental consciousness, becoming a facet of Western popular culture and triggering a surge in tourism to the region. As this trend in tourism has grown over the past sixty years, ayahuasca has become increasingly commoditized and delocalized as it circulates on a global scale. Likewise, a number of scholars have critiqued the practice of ayahuasca tourism, labeling many practitioners as charlatans and tourists as “drug” users. In order to investigate this phenomenon and provide a deeper anthropologically informed critique, I draw upon ethnographic fieldwork conducted in 2007 and 2008 in the far Western Peruvian Amazon. Utilizing field data and a review of the extant literature, I argue that the vast majority of shamans participating in ayahuasca tourism rely on an ontology based upon the notions of mimesis and alterity, which in turn structures their practice and experience.

Abstract: The genus Maytenus is a member of the Celastraceae family, of which several species have long been used in traditional medicine. Between 1976 and 2021, nearly 270 new compounds have been isolated and elucidated from the genus Maytenus. Among these, maytansine and its homologues are extremely rare in nature. Owing to its unique skeleton and remarkable bioactivities, maytansine has attracted many synthetic endeavors in order to construct its core structure. In this paper, the current status of the past 45 years of research on Maytenus, with respect to its chemical and biological activities are discussed. The chemical research includes its structural classification Citation: Huang, Y.-Y.; Chen, L.; into triterpenoids, sesquiterpenes and alkaloids, along with several chemical synthesis methods Ma, G.-X.; Xu, X.-D.; Jia, X.-G.; of maytansine or maytansine fragments.
