A Guide to Joining Transforming Bufo Ceremony in California

In the quest to know the self, humans visit various religious people and places. Some people follow a specific type of lifestyle to understand themselves better. It is known as the God molecule, and the Bufo ceremony is one of the best tools to reach higher consciousness. Bufo is already famous as a spiritual and emotional healing tool. But the question is how Bufo is able to heal human beings and lead them to live a stable life. If you are eager to know what happens in Bufo retreats, stay tuned to the post.

 

Wait, you don’t know about the bufo ritual?

 

Bufo ritual is an ancient Amazonian practice performed by people of indigenous tribes. Bufo, which is called Sapo in other tongues, is a toad that is found in the Sonoran Desert. Bufo alvarius contains a venom (5-Meo-DMT) 

 

The toad uses his venom as a defence mechanism. To obtain the venom, the toad is carefully tied from the legs and hands and left unharmed after venom extraction. This extracted material is dried and turned into crystal form for use.

 

In a bufo ritual, the dried powder is given to the participant through the smoking pipe. The medicine starts to work instantly, and the effect stays for up to 20 to 25 minutes. The participant will experience hallucinations and purging under the influence of medicine. Bufo ends the ego and provides concentration to the human mind, which helps them solve past trauma and issues in a new light. The ritual is conducted in the presence of a Shaman, so it is entirely safe.

 

Preparing for a bufo ceremony:

 

Generally, the bufo ceremony is performed in groups. One can join a bufo retreat in California individually or go in groups with family and friends. The main ingredients to a successful bufo ritual are a comfortable setting and clear intentions. Most of the retreats perform this ceremony in an outdoor setup. Before joining the healing ceremony, make sure you feel safe and secure with a retreat’s location and Shaman. Here are the things to consider while preparing for the ceremony:

 

What are your medical conditions?

If you are on some sort of medicine for depression or heart issues, you need to talk to your facilitator before time. You are required to stay away from drugs like alcohol for at least 7 to 10 days prior to your ceremony.

 

What will be your diet?

 

 While preparing for a healing ritual like Kambo or Bufo, you should take lighter meals and avoid fast food and meat. The list of restricted foods also includes caffeine and processed food. On the day of your bufo ceremony, take a light breakfast like a smoothie or juice, or else you might experience vomiting.

 

How to calm your mind?

 

 You need to spend more time introspecting yourself and your reasons to practice Bufo. The stronger your willpower and intent, the more powerful results will come to you. Practice meditation for several days to know your deep triggers and feelings and calm your mind for the ritual.

 

What distractions to avoid?

 

 In order to calm your mind, you will need to stay away from gadgets. Spend more time with yourself and avoid using social media. You need to stay away from sex as it takes away your energy. You need to clear out your schedule for a couple of days pre and post your ceremony to get the most out of Bufo.

 

What to do during the ceremony?

 

Bufo gives the best to a participant with the strongest intent. You can write your intentions on a paper to strengthen your feelings.

 

Why intentions?

 

The Bufo ceremony begins with intentions. You need to have strong reasons why you are participating. If you are confused, you won’t be able to dig deep into your mind for solutions. The Shaman will ask you to think about your intent before giving you toad medicine.   

Rapé ritual:  Shaman might give you Rapé medicine to calm your mind and cleanse your energy. You have to keep the snuff inside your nose for a while before breathing out.

 

Main ritual: 

The Shaman will ask you to inhale a small puff of bufo medicine and keep it in your lungs for a while. At the same time, drumming and music will start. The experiences of medicine will be different for each user. One may feel that they have travelled very, very far away, while others may feel grounded.

 

Also, for one person, the ceremony may bring a better sense of mind like they have never experienced, and for another person, the experience might be complex. The process of a bufo ceremony is seen as the rebirth. The medicine can cause intense emotional reactions like crying, laughing and screaming.

 

People may see visuals of past events and even hear different things. But eventually, the medicine will bring you surrender and calmness. The trip to Bufo can last for an hour. After the ritual, participants can share their experience with the Shaman or other participants and do the aftermath of the ceremony.
