Ananda

Ananda helps to facilitate retreats at Sinchi Runa, and is on a path of learning with Maestro Sanango and the Master Plants. He has spent many months in silence and solitude, dieting a variety of master plants and communing with Ayahuasca and the plant world, before beginning to assist on retreats at Sinchi Runa. With a caring and calm presence, Ananda helps to hold space for the process of all who come for healing, and assists Maestro Sanango in retreats.

Prior to Sinchi Runa, Ananda spent many years practicing meditation, attending and serving on silent retreats, and eventually maturing his practice to begin sharing what he had learned on his journey. He continues to make use of this to help guide participants in their processes and encounters with the Master Plants.

“Ayahuasca continues helping me to discover what I am and let go what I thought I was. She helps me to remember my nature of Love, an eternal existence beyond all ideas or thoughts of my mind. She has shown me the compassion and love that exists in the heart of humanity, and a hope for what humanity could become in remembering and embracing it’s heart. She helps me to see my own suffering, to heal and to let go, and teaches me to recognise that same suffering, and the same heart, in everyone and everything around me. I am so honoured and so very humbled to be able to play my small role in serving this sacred medicine, and to share that which has made such a difference to my own healing and life”
