This is one of the most common beliefs and prejudices when it comes to rap\u00e9. It is thought that because one of its main ingredients is the tobacco plant, it will have the same effects and consequences as cigarettes… And it is a myth. We already explain why!<\/p>\n
( What are the ingredients of rap\u00e9?<\/strong><\/em><\/a> )<\/p>\n There are many varieties of tobacco, but today only two are widely used<\/strong> : Nicotiana tabacum<\/em> and Nicotiana R\u00fastica<\/em> . Nicotiana tabacum,<\/em> is the species used by the tobacco industry, which chose it for commercial reasons, because being softer allows consumers to smoke more and at a faster rate. Additionally, this plant has undergone countless genetic alterations to make it addictive. Nicotiana rustica<\/em> , is the variety of tobacco used by the tribes of the Amazon, and it is a much stronger and more powerful variety.<\/p>\n I would like to clarify that for us there is not a bad variety and a good one; plants are not to blame.<\/strong> It is the abuse that we give it as a society that makes its effects harmful. The important thing is that you know that this is a myth, that it is about two different varieties of tobacco, and that above all, the preparation of the rap\u00e9 and the cigarette have nothing in common beyond the use of the tobacco plant.<\/p>\n ( What is rap\u00e9?<\/strong><\/a><\/em> )<\/p>\n Although rap\u00e9 includes the tobacco plant, or has a visionary effect because it is prepared together with entheogenic plants such as ayahuasca cielo<\/em> , we do not consider it a drug. The main reason is that it is not used for recreational purposes, but for the purpose of healing and awakening consciousness.<\/strong> Rap\u00e9 is an ancestral medicine that has been used since ancient times by the indigenous communities of the Amazon. And from the respect for the communities, their traditions and their sacred medicine, you too can honor your presence with devotion and respect.<\/p>\n ( My experience with rap\u00e9 as ancestral medicine<\/em><\/strong><\/a> )<\/p>\n As in the two previous beliefs, this myth is false.<\/strong><\/p>\n Before clarifying certain prejudices, we are going to deny something important about the use of this ancestral medicine. Rap\u00e9 is not consumed by inhalation; Rap\u00e9<\/strong> is applied through a breath<\/strong> . The kuripes (or autoprojectors<\/strong> )<\/a> are tools that will allow you to download your rap\u00e9 and receive it through your own exhalation or the breath of another trusted person who is accompanying you in your ritual. One of the reasons why it is applied through the breath is because of the energetic action that exhaling requires: When you exhale, you release. When you exhale, you die to your old ways to come back to life on the next inhalation.<\/strong><\/p>\n ( The blows of rap\u00e9<\/strong><\/em><\/a> )<\/p>\n The prejudice that exists against the inhalation of addictive substances through the nose is due to the unconscious use of drugs, butRap\u00e9 is an ancient medicine used for medicinal and spiritual purposes and for the awakening of consciousness.<\/strong> The tobacco used to prepare the rap\u00e9 has been selected, prepared and prayed to take advantage of its medicinal benefits and its integral benefits from and for the being. We have already talked on other occasions about the benefits of rap\u00e9 and it is important that you be able to discern those prejudices that distance you from your personal experience.<\/p>\n ( Myths and beliefs that distance us from the experience<\/strong><\/a><\/em> )<\/p>\n If you want to know more about rap\u00e9 as an ancestral medicine, contact us on our social networks as @ancestrina<\/strong><\/a> , visit our YouTube Channel<\/strong><\/a> or write us in the comments to receive more information about the path of this sacred medicine. We know that RAP\u00c9 CHANGES LIVES<\/strong><\/a> and we would love for you to be part of this community that expands consciousness through ancestral medicines.<\/em><\/p>\n In the same way, If any of our rap\u00e9s was part of your path, share with us your experiences of healing and change in the comments.<\/strong> We believe in the stories of transformation that this loving ancestral medicine has spun and we are convinced that it can help many to return to their essence, return to the present moment and live a life full of well-being and purpose.<\/em><\/p>\nMYTH #2: RAP\u00c9 IS A DRUG<\/h2>\n
MYTH #3: “RAP\u00c9 IS INHALED THROUGH THE NOSE, IT SHOULD NOT BE A GOOD EXPERIENCE”<\/h2>\n
