We invite you to remember who, and what you really are

If you accept this call, it will transform your life and your understanding of your essence, and your true purpose.

This is your invitation to join an exclusive group of people on a life changing journey to Mexico, where you will awaken your mind, body and soul with meditation, yoga, neurofeedback and medicine from the Bufo Alvarius toad, the entheogen 5-MeO-DMT. Through the shamanic cultivation of ancient energetic modalities and modern technology, we will help you awaken your full potential to create a profound paradigm shift.

As a truth seeker, you strive to know yourself, to understand your reality, and to rejoin the true awareness of an alive and intelligent universe. By looking within you can find not just answers, but peace and reconnection.

You know that the world is abundant, and that energy is the true currency of these times. You can feel the world changing, and a call within yourself to reflect that change as well. You are hungry for this revelation of truth.

“With intention to uncover your purpose, your authenticity, and share your essence and gifts with the world, you are unstoppable. Why Wait? Let’s Co-Create!” –Antonia, Facilitator

WHO THIS IS FOR:

• Seekers that hunger to know their true self (‘Awakening’) • Those with an open mind • People who have experience with meditation, self-inquiry, or plant

medicines, • Or people that have never altered their consciousness but are brave

enough to open to the full spectrum available • Those who wish to take their new state to make a difference in the

world • Those who seriously are ready for change on a core, deep level

WHO THIS IS NOT FOR:

• Those who are happy to remain asleep • People that do not want to grow or be challenged • People not open to travel • Those who think they know what reality is already • Those not ready to join a group experience and let go of boundaries

WHAT WILL I GET FROM THIS PROGRAM?

• A breakthrough experience that redefines your understanding of who and what you truly are

• A letting go of limiting belief systems • A taste of ego death and rebirth and the realization of eternity • A redefinition of the life and your place in it • An understanding and training in your body, brainwave states, the ego,

and unity consciousness • An appreciation of the true interconnectedness and joy of life

My name is Rak Razam, Director of Terra Incognita, and I know that this is a time of awakening. What does that mean? How does it feel? How will your awakening help the world’s awakening?

As an author, filmmaker and shamanic facilitator I have helped guide people for the last ten years who are interested in knowing themselves to reconnect to their inner being through shamanic earth medicines tribal cultures have used for millennia. You can see some of my latest work here: www.shamansoftheglobalvillage.com

As Director of Terra Incognita, I also help our organization explore consciousness, neuroscience and train the brain to naturally access deeper states of mind. Terra Incognita is dedicated to understanding the nexus between consciousness and spirituality using cutting-edge EEG technology to map brain states and existing software and data management systems to make sense of the data we collect. See: www.terra-incognita-project.org

By supporting deep medicine work with meditation, yoga and the science of biofeedback, Terra Incognita has married the ancient with the modern, mysticism and science to reveal our full potential, a modality we call neuroshamanism.

We will empower you to know yourself. To know your body and how the ancient science of yoga supports your divine temple. To know your mind and the flow of thoughts, to be skilled in simple meditation techniques to rebalance, and to support this with modern neurofeedback technology to feel those pathways within yourself.

We will teach you the correct role of the ego in serving your full being. We will assist you to listen with your heart, to open your feeling pathways to go deeper and deeper into Source itself with the most powerful of sacred medicines, 5-MeO-DMT. This substance occurs naturally in the human brain and in the plant and animal kingdom, and appears to be nature’s built-in key to the higher realms of being.

We guarantee you that this retreat will be a transformation of who you are and help to reveal your true nature and Source connection. What is the value of that? It is what people spend lifetimes searching for. We provide the safely held space for that realization, and ongoing support to integrate the experience into your life.

Many shamanic medicines like ayahuasca, san pedro, kambo and more are becoming accessible in the West, and the Bufo Alvarius toad/5-MeO-DMT use is on the rise as well. Unlike a single experience we offer this retreat as a launching pad and a container over 7 days and 6 nights to fully assist your integration of the experience.

The toad medicine is also scarce and with the increase in demand pressure is on the toads and their habitat. We source our medicine ethically and donate back to resource management groups, ensuring viability and sustainability.

We invite you to heal, to let go, to remember and to love.

WHO ARE WE?

Terra Incognita is an NGO dedicated to understanding the nexus between consciousness and spirituality using cutting-edge EEG technology to map brain states and existing software and data management systems to make sense of the data we collect.

We explore and collect data on altered states of consciousness, especially the tryptamine 5-MeO-DMT, which is legal in Mexico and many other countries worldwide. 5MEO catalyzes a non-dual or unity state of consciousness, and has been utilized by many indigenous cultures throughout Mesoamerica.

We have a not-for-profit NGO science R&D arm that profits from the retreats goes towards supporting: www.terra-incognita-project.org

STEP 1. DEPARTURE

Are you ready to answer the call from deep within?

In the months before the retreat, our trained facilitators will connect with you for a one-on-one consultation process. We will work together to understand you and where you are at on your path, whatever limitations or blockages may be holding you back, and engage you in a process of asking the questions of self-inquiry to set you on the path.

• We will create a sense of who we are, and establish rapport with you to feel informed and safe in the process of our retreat

• We will establish a safe medical container for you by understanding your health and wellbeing

• We will answer any questions you have about our Awakening process and provide reading materials, videos and media to support your understanding

Preparation

The inner work we do on this retreat is best supported by a healthy body and mind. Toad medicine has less dietary restrictions, though we urge you to eat well and if possible follow a clean diet to energize your body and reduce energetic blockages for the work ahead.

We all know how stressful Western work culture can be, but the act of focusing on your purification is a sign of commitment and refining your energy for the activation it will encounter. Try to decrease alcohol, recreational drugs, caffeine and sugar to retain your vital energy in the week before the retreat.

In our screening process we will discuss any medical issues or concerns you might have, and any medications you are on. There are certain precautions with medications like SSRIs and any MAO-inhibitors to avoid in conjunction with this experience. Toad medicine is the strongest earth-based medicine for re-connecting consciousness available, and it is not for the weak of heart (mentally or literally), nor for those with pre-existing medical complaints or a history of mental imbalance or psychological problems. Our trained facilitators will support you through the program and we require you to be honest with us about your medical history so we can better support you.

STEP 2. INITIATION

We will guide you on this intensive process of inner and outer transformation.

Mexico Itinerary:

• 7 days and 6 nights at an eco-chic resort in the heart of Tulum, Mexico. • Intensive awakening program with toad medicine, meditation, yoga,

mindfulness and neurofeedback training • Daily discussions and workshops

Our 7 day program will entail a full, unity breakthrough and deep integration sessions followed up by gentle reinforcement of the medicine and support modalities. You will be supported through the love and grace of the facilitators, as well as the EEG neurofeedback technology to learn how to allow and anchor states of consciousness and states of feeling within yourself.

Group size is limited to 6 to ensure one-on-one monitoring and guidance by our trained facilitators.

The subject of meditation, neurofeedback and toad medicine is multi-leveled and profound, and our facilitators will be most happy to discuss the intricacies with you as part of the initiation process. Every effort will be dedicated to you personally, and as part of the group, to understand your needs and essence, and to nurture that to its full potential. You will be met. You will be held. You will be reflected and understood. We will have a registered Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) aide on hand and a full first aid kit and training for your health and safety needs.

Over the course of the 7 days we will partake of the toad medicine three times, once as a full breakthrough session in which you will be fully supported in letting go and rejoining the non-dual state; secondly as a follow up to re-anchor the energetic activation; and lastly as a gentle exercise as part of a group session to remember, reseal and release.

Page 10: YOUR PRIVATE INVITATION TO AWAKENterra-incognita-project.org/wp-content/uploads/... · • Insight meditation techniques to facilitate self-inquiry • Daily yoga and awareness exercises

There will be daily yoga and Insight meditation classes with full instruction for beginners and inspiration for advanced yogis, to support you body and mind to get the most from the toad medicine.

You will also have a hand-crafted EEG session to get to know the different levels of your own mind and how to release into deeper states of being.

You will be in a private retreat setting, no photos or video are allowed without the express consent of all subjects, and your anonymity is protected.

STEP 3. RETURN

As part of the bell curve of our 7 day retreat, gently departing from the known into deeper and deeper levels of consciousness itself, and the full immersive breakthrough toad medicine 5-MeO-DMT experience, we will spend time helping integrate and embody back into yourself, and who you may become.

The last few days of retreat will ensure you have the crucial psychological support, the physical structure, and the conscious understanding to integrate your breakthrough awakening experience.

You will also have access to longer term support and guidance after the retreat itself, in the form of integration sessions and contact, Skype and phone calls, and the presence of the network of peers that have gone on the journey with you.

Every effort will be maintained to support you in an ongoing process of integration of this most powerful self-knowing, and how to apply that in your life, career and spiritual journey to become the full potential person you have it in yourself to be.

I invite you to share full presence and be guided with compassion along the path of your awakening medicine journey.

WHAT IS THE BUFO ALVARIUS TOAD?

The Bufo Alvarius toad is a psychoactive toad found in northern Mexico and the southwestern United States. Its skin and venom and the toad's parotoid glands produce the 5-MeO-DMT and bufotenin for which the toad is known; both of these chemicals belong to the family of hallucinogenic tryptamines. 5-MeO-DMT may be safely smoked and is powerfully psychoactive. After inhalation the user usually experiences a warm sensation, euphoria, and strong spiritual activation and interconnection to non-dual states of mind.

We ethically source the toad medicine from the indigenous Seri Tribe in the Sonoran Desert of Mexico, and we ensure that the toads are treated fairly in the process of harvesting the medicine from their glands, and that they are returned to nature unharmed. The toad medicine is legal in Mexico.

The Bufo toad is a different creature from the Phylomedusa Bicolor frog that the Kambo venom is extracted from and is also used in other shamanic cultures. We do not use kambo frog secretion and this is very different medicine.

WHAT IS 5-MeO-DMT?

While it’s function is not fully understood, DMT is produced endogenously in our brains and is found in throughout the animal and plant kingdoms. Its powerful psychedelic effects reliably cause ‘mystical experiences’, especially when imbibed from earth-based medicines with high natural concentrations. It also has many health benefits on the body flushing clean blockages and supporting immunomodulation capacity. Traditional and indigenous plant and earth-based shamanism using DMT rich sources are not legal in many parts of the world.

5-MeO-DMT engenders a full immersion into the non-dual or unity state of consciousness reported by meditators, mystics, and other shamanic practitioners in cultures all across the world. It is endogenous to the human brain, and present in the Bufo Alvarius toad.

WHAT IS NEUROFEEDBACK?

Brainwaves shape your reality. You have your very own signature brain wave activity, unique to you. It has a rhythm and pattern. Knowing how to identify your brainwave state is the first step in consciously shifting it. All of our thoughts, emotions and behaviors are rooted in the communication between neurons. Naturally occurring brain chemicals influence our moods but there is also an electrical component associated with brain wave frequency that is worth exploring. Our brainwave state controls our ability to focus and many other important functions in our lives.

Knowing how to identify your brainwave state is the first step in empowering you to consciously shift these patterns as needed throughout the day. You have your very own signature brain wave activity. It has a rhythm and pattern – and it incorporates Beta, Alpha, Theta, and Delta frequencies at varying levels over the course of a day as your brain modulates them to match your activities. Our neurofeedback sessions, mixed with yogic techniques, mudras and sound-light installations, can help enable your understanding of your brain frequencies and to start the process of learning to control them.

Some Benefits of Meditation

Translated from the Thai teachings of Phra Dhammadhirarajamahamuni (Jodok Nyanasiddhi PDh. 9) In the Tipitaka, the word “anekasahassa” is used, which means that cultivating Vipassana insight has literally thousands of benefits, thus making it impossible to list them all. The following is but a short list of examples of the benefits of Vipassana-style meditation.

1. It brings one closer to the truth, both conceptually and experientially, on a deeper level, for instance understanding mind, matter, the three characteristics, rapture, happiness, etc. as they really are.

2. It gives the mind stronger motivation, effort, patience, insight and concentration than before.

3. It makes the mind able to sacrifice much more for the greater good of all, working without worrying about fatigue, happy to work, just the opposite of before practicing meditation.

4. It allows one to explain the truth much better and in greater precision than before, because one is able to explain theory, practice and fruition, each being more profound than the last, just like the great ocean.

5. It improves recollection and memory, allowing one to memorize things well, not forgetting or confusing things that one has committed to memory.

6. It means the cultivation of morality, concentration, compassion and wisdom according to the Buddha’s teaching.

7. It means following the middle way, the eightfold noble path.

8. It makes one insightful, understanding the fundamentals of reality, and understanding the fundamentals of everyday life better than before.

9. It allows one to realize supramundane reality, not being stuck in mere concepts and constructs of the mind

10. It enables an understanding of the interconnectedness of all beings and shines light on the illusion of separation

YOGA

During your daily yoga session, yogis will be brought into deep states of stillness in order to utilize expanded fields of awareness already arising within the high vibratory communal consciousness of the retreat environment.

Using breathwork, chanting, asana (yogic postures and movement), meditation and sound healing, we will harness and channel the resonant vibration, unifying energetic states and creating a yoga ceremony that will unify, align, and harmonize, leaving us feeling connected, refreshed, energized, and deeply purified.

No experience necessary, only requirement is an open mind and a desire to nourish and be nourished.

PROGRAM DATES

7 days, 6 nights

Tuesday August 16 – monday August 22, 2016

Invest in a 7 day retreat from the world, from your definitions of yourself, your commitments and expectations. 7 days of time here will literally result in a lifetime of benefits of knowing yourself more, and the world you inhabit.

We invite you to join this exclusive retreat which will be curated with other like-minded souls, with a balance of men and women on the same path as you, to develop your own being and potential.

You will have the opportunity to partake of the structured retreat program we have devised to learn skills and potentials within yourself, and to take the time out you need when you need to do nothing, which is itself a form of integration.

Walk along the lush beach, breathe in the fresh sea-salt air, re-meet nature. We will have discussions for the mind, body work for the flesh, and lessons for the soul. We invite you to meet the frameworks we have created, and also understand the deep and transformative nature of the work may require your own time and space to grow and anchor.

During the month of August, Cancun receives a higher amount of rainfall and levels of humidity. There will still be 7 hours of average sunshine every day to enjoy. It is worth noting however, that August receives the highest amount of rainfall compared to previous months; the average precipitation for this month is 146mm. Life in Cancun is still enjoyable despite the rain with an average temperature standing at a pleasant 28C (82F), and the hottest hours of the day recording an average high temperature of 32C (90F). This drops to an average low of 24C (75F) after sunset.

You will be supported at every step of this journey. You are not alone. We are growing together.
