Engage in the observation of sensations in the body without elaboration, without preference, without resistance or identification. Let them come and go with presence.

Rest in this presence because when you rest, you see that this presence has always rested in you. Rest as who you are—nothing more and nothing less. Resting as who you are is not trivial. It's a simple process, and it's just to be.

We drink this medicine that is a medicine of nature. Millions of people all around the world have taken this medicine. This medicine of nature brings us back to our own nature… It is the natural peace of this moment.

Spirituality is about taking off the mask. So, we must ask, ‘Who am I without the mask?’... What is aware of the name is nameless. What is aware of the body is formless. What is aware of the thoughts is not a thought. It is this natural, pristine, and naked awareness that is free from all bondage.

Close your eyes and look—not to find a center, but to fall into the vastness that has no edge, no beginning, no end. Beneath all stories and identities is a presence untouched by time. When we rest there, the search is over. What we long for has been here all along.

An opening prayer for Forest Path cermonies.

You cannot go looking for the divine, because it is only ever and always the divine that looks. When we quiet the mind and lift the veil of thought, we remember our original nature—vast, wordless, eternal. This medicine invites us to rest there, to trust presence, and to return to the truth that has always been within.

The Alliance is a gathering of understanding—for those walking the medicine path, for the traditions that came before us, and for the unseen forces that guide the work. We are not here to sing pretty songs, but to open a space where the medicines can teach, humble, and bless us into wholeness.

Harmony is all around me. Sometimes I look out at the world and I can't see it, but it is still there. This medicine reminds us of that child within—yearning to love, to give, to dance, to be a human being in this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, this divine chance

When all fades away, what is left is the ground of being. Its ground is groundless. Its language is wordless silence. And its movement is stillness.

If you want to discover “your truth”, you must first start by discovering the Truth of yourself.
