B. Caapi (Peru) - Whole White Vine
   |
Banisteriopsis caapi, completely legal to grow and possess, has many native names. The use of this liana is so deeply rooted in Amazonian mythology and philosophy that countless plants of diverse families are often added to the basic preparation of this powerful MAOI to alter it's medicinal effects.
The plants involved are considered plants of the gods, for their powers are laid to supernatural forces residing in their tissues, and they were Divine gifts to the earliest Indians on Earth. Much remains to be learned and there's little time before increasing acculturation and often, the extinction of entire tribes will make it impossible to learn about these one of the most fascinating and culturally powerful plant Medicines on earth. Although this plant is completely legal in all its forms, we offer this large, shredded B. Caapi from Peru as an herbarium specimen only. Many treasure simply having the energy of sacred plants in their meditation spaces, and B. caapi is perhaps one of the most powerful. |
