Iboga Rootbark

For many generations, iboga has played an important role for practitioners of the Bwiti religion in Central Africa. The Bwiti initiation rite to attain spiritual maturity recommends ingesting a very strong dose of iboga – by taking the plant an intense mind- and spirit-altering experience is induced. Smaller doses are taken during weekly ceremonies of collective religious fervor, moments of intense love and mutual understanding fueled by dancing and drumming late into the night. Through the iboga plant, Bwitists feel they strengthen their connection to the divine realm and experience a deep understanding of the cycle of life, death and rebirth.

Many of us in one way or another get caught up in patterns of thought and behavior that limit our freedom – their roots can be found in unpleasant past experiences and accompanying negative emotions. These patterns bear similarities to the patterns of addictions: despite their harmful nature, we trick ourselves into believing that they provide us with a shortcut to comfort.

Iboga digs deep into our minds. It brings to the surface what is hidden and precious, what shapes us. Iboga can help any of us eliminate self-inflicted oppression, accelerate personal growth and bring more joy to life.

Nowadays the “norm” demands that we operate with logic, devoid of emotions– so we feel like there is very little room to follow our hearts. Through the uncontrolled generation of all kinds of thoughts, our mind is constantly influencing our behavior. It's good not to believe everything we think! The mind can be a useful practical tool, but it should not be our guide.

On the ethnobotanical forum DMT Nexus there is a great thread about similar extracts of the plant. The thread is titled "Iboga Microdosing Guide". Basically, when it comes to Iboga it is essential to have as much information as possible!

Caution!! This is a powerful plant. Under no circumstances should it be taken by people on medication – especially people on heart and blood pressure medication as well as anti-depressants!
