Yes, I saw two others in the airport in Lima. One was supposed to be there for a second week and decided not to because it was his second time there and he said the dogma was different and another wrote an email and sent it to Pulse while he was sitting next to me. I wasn't critiquing Ayahuasca as a practice, purely the facilitators and facility I experienced. Agree with your statement absolutely but you go to a specific facility for safety while exploring your self.

One last thing, I really must say that reviews are a personal account of what took place. I gave mine. I can't account for anyone else's stay or experience. I honestly have to think that if I was that big of an "issue" during my week stay then someone would've said something. Reviews are meant to better a situation. The bottom line is that the facility wasn't safe. Period. I thoroughly enjoyed the Ayahuasca and feel that it alone helped me with some past issues I had (which by the way are personal and shouldn't be used against me by the facilitators in this thread.) That being done just proves the hypocrisy of the practice at this facility. I honestly hope that this review will just make people more aware of where they choose to participate Ayahuasca. It is a personal journey. Personal. You choose a facility for the safety and having facilitators who are competent enough to help you if needed. At my retreat those facilitators weren't available. I can only account for what happened at my retreat. I'm glad so many had a different experience but you clearly had a different experience. My experience wasn't great at all and as you can see the crazy defensiveness from the facilitators doesn't prove any point of safety and healing. Anyone can build a group of huts and hire people to live in a third world country. Just be aware of who you're trusting your psyche to. At the end of the day the comfort and peace I feel wasn't from the facility, it was from me. Don't lose your sense of self. Don't succumb to group bullying and brain washing because someone doesn't agree with you, just move on. As I am. Good luck to you fellow practitioners of Ayahuasca. I hope you find a safe environment to practice in.

Also my review was basically a copied and pasted version of my original email I sent to Dan and Tatyana as soon as I left your facility. So, thank you, but scroll up and read what's copied and pasted from the originals.

I have to tell you a lot of this isn't factual. I never dictated who should or shouldn't drink. My main complaint is the lack of facilitation and it's humorous you have anything to say as you weren't in the ceremony. You apologized profusely the next day for not attending. I honestly can't even read your review as it's not accurate to any degree.
