In the span of three remarkable weeks in August and September, Henosis, a pioneering initiative, successfully hosted its inaugural event, a transformative ceremony that transcended cultural barriers and connected over 50 individuals across Asia with the profound wisdom of indigenous practices. In a world where the fast-paced urban lifestyle often obscures the profound connection between humans and the natural world, this remarkable event recently unfolded and shed light on a timeless truth that has been hidden from our society for far too long. Guided by the indigenous Marakame Juan from the Wixirika tribe of Mexico, participants embarked on an all-night ceremony that stretched until dawn, ushering in a new era of self-discovery, spiritual enlightenment, and a deeper connection with the elements that shape our existence.
This inaugural event was a profound reminder of our role in the grand tapestry of existence, rekindling the understanding of our place in the universe. The ceremony was an odyssey into the depths of the human soul, unraveling the fabric of our perceptions and bringing participants face-to-face with the elemental spirits that inhabit the world around us. As the night unfolded and the sun began to break the horizon, profound breakthroughs occurred, unveiling the reality that had been obscured for generations.
At the core of this experience was the revelation that the elements within our bodies are not just physical matter; they are living, conscious entities, akin to you and me. Through the ceremony and the use of sacred medicine, a bridge is established between the participants’ consciousness and the elemental spirits, who are our ancient ancestors. This communion illuminated the understanding that the elements are not merely passive components of our existence but are as alive and aware as we are, possessing wisdom that has been overlooked by modern society.
The impact of this ceremony transcended the boundaries of the event itself, profoundly altering the lives of many who took part. Participants found themselves on a path of self-discovery, rekindling relationships with their families, and reevaluating the direction of their lives. The newfound awareness reinvigorated their understanding of the world and their place in it.
For some, the ceremony served as a catalyst for reconciling with estranged family members, healing deep-seated wounds, and fostering a renewed sense of connection and love. The profound transformation brought about by this ceremony acted as a bridge, spanning years of misunderstandings and disagreements.
Others experienced a more radical shift, completely altering their life’s course. Armed with the awareness of their interconnectedness with the elements, they pursued new callings, from advocating for environmental conservation to engaging in sustainable practices and dedicating their lives to the betterment of the world.
Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to our compadres, Carlos and Tako, whose unwavering support and dedication made this journey possible. Their tireless efforts ensured the seamless execution of this transcendent event.
We are immensely grateful to Jeannie Javelosa, whose Banahaw Circle Nature Retreat provided the perfect backdrop for introspection and spiritual exploration. Her vision of fostering a deep connection with nature and promoting sustainable living resonated with the essence of Henosis, amplifying the impact of the transformative journey. Also a sincere thanks goes to Ritthee from the Amaravati Wellness Centre, whose dedication to holistic wellness and spiritual growth created an environment conducive to deep introspection and inner healing.
As we reflect on the profound impact of Henosis’s inaugural event, we look forward to the next chapter. Watch this space for the next ceremony destination or tour, where more souls can embark on a journey of self-discovery, transformation, and a deeper connection with the elemental spirits that inhabit our world.
