Background
Information
|
|
I believed that I would be an attorney since I first discovered Clarence Darrow, so at University I majored in theatre arts, acting, criminology and psychology. I had grown up in music already so didn't bother much with that as I had a very formal education in it.
When I was given a full scholarship to a private law school, it was then that I realized I didn't want to become a lawyer.
More understanding from a spirit level brought me to the Peruvian Amazon where I married my Peruvian wife and we have two children. I have been studying shamanism now for 15 years and will continue forever.
As always,

I really don't care to mention them except the award of having been able to come here and live a life with my new family and shamanism.

www.soga-del-alma.org is the church I set up here in Iquitos. The sacrament is ayahusca.
If you go to the website, you will also see the Amazonian Shamanism Conference that I hold each year here, drawing around 200 like minded individuals from all over the World to hear Presentations from some of the best minds involved with shamanism as well as hear 20 shamans tell their story, ask them questions and finally be in ceremony with them.
