School of Knowledge Onan Yatishovo

The Whisper of the Jungle and the Awakening of the Self

Sacred medicine as a universal bond

Healing is not found in a bottle; it emerges at the sacred meeting point between humanity and the Cosmos. At our school within the Flower of Life Ayahuasca Healing Center, we honor the TSENTSAK, the electric current of divine light that moves through the soul’s meridians. When this energy is blocked, the body weakens; when it flows freely, harmony is restored. True healing is not simply the absence of pain, but a return to balance with life as a whole.

The Elements

Guardians of transformation

Within ceremony, ordinary time fades and we align with the pillars of creation:

The Breath of Mapacho Tobacco is more than smoke; it carries the voice of the Grandfather Wind, clearing mental shadows, protecting the auric field, and lifting prayers to the Great Spirit.
The Waters of Purification cleanse not only the skin, but cellular memory, allowing the rivers of the Amazon to carry away the weight of the past.
Mother Earth (Pachamama) is the source from which we arise and the altar for our offerings. Walking the jungle floor reminds us that we are not alone, but held by a conscious force that sustains every heartbeat.
Master Plants are keys to divinity Ayahuasca and San Pedro are revered as Master Entities, carriers of ancient wisdom. Through their liquid light, a profound cellular transformation begins.

The Vision of the Icaro Sacred chants are sonic geometries that reorganize vibration. As the Shipibo shaman sings the Icaro, a protective cocoon is woven, allowing the spirit to enter the Sonqo (heart) and expand toward the infinite.
Frequencies of Light At the Flower of Life Ayahuasca Healing Center, we connect with the vibration of 333, a code of perfect symmetry in time and space. Here, the light body begins to move beyond ego density toward higher states of consciousness.

The Path of the Apprentice

Warrior of light

Becoming a guardian of medicine at Onan Yatishovo is a lifelong commitment. During a two-year immersion in the Peruvian jungle, the student moves beyond observation and becomes a bridge:

The Death of the Ego Through fasting and plant diets, the apprentice purifies the body and opens to the direct teachings of the plants.
Mastery of “Non-Time” The student learns to navigate multidimensional worlds and read dreams and visions as maps of higher reality.
Reciprocity (Ayni) Healing is understood as a sacred exchange: we heal the Earth as she heals us.

Transformational Journey: 6-Week Shamanic Course

This six-week Shamanism and Healing course in Peru invites participants into a deep journey of purpose, expanded perception, and traditional Amazonian medicine. Rooted in the wisdom of indigenous practices, it offers an opportunity to explore shamanism, sacred geometry, and the healing power of medicinal plants.

Led by Master Shamans from the Shipibo lineage, with more than 30 years of experience, the program includes teachings on icaros, the sacred songs used in ceremony, as well as the methods passed down through generations. The course is designed for those who arrive with an open mind and open heart.

What to Expect in the Six-Week Shamanic Course

In the first week, participants begin essential medicinal plant diets and undergo physical, mental, and spiritual detoxification with guidance from experienced curanderos and maestros.
The program includes an introduction to the teachers and 20 key topics, delivered through 20 theoretical classes led by a facilitator-translator.
You will take part in 14 ayahuasca ceremonies and 4 San Pedro ceremonies, while also learning about the preparation and use of ayahuasca, purging brews, and other medicinal plants.
Each week includes a different plant diet, closely supervised by the shamans.
In the second week, theoretical and practical classes continue according to the needs of the group, alongside tours to identify medicinal plants and understand their effects on the body.
In the third week, you will begin practicing icaros and learning energy management, sacred space, and dimensional connection.
The fourth week deepens the diets and your understanding of medicinal plants and yourself, with guidance for healing physical ailments.
In the fifth and sixth weeks, you will join guided ayahuasca ceremonies and may sing your own icaros.

Upon completion, participants receive a certificate in Amazonian Shamanism. The course also includes a Kambo administration workshop, knowledge of medicinal plants, jungle expeditions, support in creating floral and medicinal baths, and guidance in crafting your own ayahuasca brew. The program is limited to 8 spots and includes limited internet access in the dining room area.

Total cost: $5,999.00 USD

Not included: massage therapy ($40), transportation from Iquitos to the Ayahuasca Healing Center for flight delays, missed connections, or unscheduled pickups on the day the retreat begins, and some personal and practice items such as Florida water, tabaco or mapacho, and pipes, which may be brought by each participant or purchased at the center.

Icaros

Icaros are sacred songs sung by the curandero during Ayahuasca ceremonies. They support healing, open visions, and help participants connect with the energetic body and the flow of life. Practicing these songs can strengthen intuition, awaken the third eye, and deepen communication with nature and spiritual guides.

Detoxification and the Purge

Detoxification is central to shamanic practice and supports balance in the body’s internal systems. The course provides nutritional guidance to help prepare beneficial diets that support gut health and overall well-being.

The purge is a cleansing process that helps remove what is heavy, toxic, or unnecessary on both physical and spiritual levels. In Amazonian medicine, it is traditionally supported by purgative plants such as Chacruna, creating a fuller cycle of healing.

During the Sacred Ayahuasca Ceremony

During ceremony, participants may experience visions that unfold beyond ordinary time, where past, present, and future appear at once. The experience is approached with mindfulness, intention, and respect for the interconnected nature of all things. Throughout the process, the Maestro-Shaman works closely with each participant, guiding the cleansing of energetic centers on auric, physical, astral, and mental levels.

Closing Ayahuasca Ceremony

At the close of ceremony, the apprentice chants the Arkana of protection to help shield participants from outside influences. The shaman then offers the final melody and protection icaros, creating a safe and harmonious ending to the experience.
