Arkana Spiritual Center

"This place was life changing. The facilitators maybe it special beginning to end. They are 100% the spirit of this place and I cant thank each of them enough. The aya ceremonies was tough for me and my wife due to the smoke and I am still not sold on the maestro but I cant say enough good things about the facilitators, such wonderful loving human beings. They will always hold a special place in my heart. The huachuma maestro was also amazing and he is truly medicine for the soul. I pray they hold onto this wonderful group of people who help guide others selflessly and with such patience and love for a long time."

"I spent two weeks in sacred valley and my experience was amazing. I had a lot of things to work through so it wasn't always fun to work through but the staff, facilitators, chefs and are amazing groups made it life changing. Everyone is so kind and help you with just about anything. So thankful I chose Arkana Spiritual Center for my healing. Such a beautiful place and experience. Hard to put everything into words but I highly recommend them to anyone wanting to heal, grow spiritually orpause and reconnect with yourself. I will be back in the future and thanks again to everyone who were so wonderful and helped me with my healing/health and wellness journey!"

"There is a place hidden deep in the Sacred Valley of the Andes Mountains, where before visiting, you must first clip out of bounds. In this place, there is no time. There is no space. There is only Love. This Love erases all potential space for things like fear, trauma, and resentment to exist within. But beware: in order to get there, you must be willing to surrender everything. I went there once. The things I saw cannot be expressed in words, but this will have to do. Once you pass through the gates of The Garden, you make a near-seamless transition into a state of being where time and space no longer behave as they did before. The entrance is situated far away from where "the action" takes place. This is significant because it means you no longer see or hear who comes and goes. They all seem to appear in The Garden out of thin air, stay for a while, and dissolve back into the ether. You did not know this person was going to be here. You don't know how long they will stay. You are just grateful to be with them. In this place I met The Love Bug, The Mountain, The Warrior and The Siren. If you are lucky, you can talk to a Love Bug that calls itself Sean. The Love Bug is kind and gentle. His radiant center calls you closer to receive his wisdom. You can also hug a Mountain called Cinzia. Her fearlessness lays a protective barrier around your heart and mind, which you will need if you are going to take this journey to its fullest extent. If you think you are ready, you can inherit ancient technology from The Warrior (Matty B). His presence is still and powerful. He is pure Brahman. He taught me everything I was willing to learn. You can also be sung into dissolution by The Siren (Matty G). If she is singing, it is best to not make eye contact with her. There is a chance that her gaze may become fixed on The Warrior, and that gaze is not intended for mortal consumption. Their music cradled me during times of war. And if you want, you can also sit with Mother Ayahuasca under the protection of The Conductors: Maestra Ada and Maestro Idael. These Holy Beings have my complete and unadulterated trust. Their presence looms over, under, and throughout The Garden. In this place, I watched all of my false identities die a terrible death, one by one. And just as I was about to scream for help, a voice asked "Who is it that is about to scream for help?" It was at this moment that I touched the part of Myself that is indestructible. The Field of Awareness that animates each of us, that has been carrying me through this incarnation. This Awareness is Pure Light. It is self-luminous and pure. It is one without a second. To know it is to be Eternal. My cup runneth over. To the caretakers Bob, Logan, and Matt, though I could have done with more interaction with each of you, it is worth honoring the contributions you made to my experience at Arkana. You are all living examples of how plant medicine can put one back in touch with their inner call to serve others. I came here to deepen my compassion for others and to expand my spiritual practice. I did that, and more. Much more. This "much more" includes drinking in panoramic views of the mountains and stars, a garden of true earthly delights, and connecting with nature in a way I never knew was possible. I have never eaten cleaner or tastier food. Thank you to the chefs and the grounds keepers. I have never known purer Beings. "Push far enough towards the Void, Hold fast enough to Quietness, And of the ten thousand things none but can be worked on by you. I have beheld them, whither they go back. See, all things howsoever they flourish Return to the root from which they grew. This return to the root is called Quietness; Quietness is called submission to Fate; What has submitted to Fate has become part of the always so. To know the always-so is to be Illumined; Not to know it, means to go blindly to disaster." -Dao De Jing"
