PARANTHROPOLOGY: JOURNAL OF ANTHROPOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO THE PARANORMAL VOL. 2 NO. 2<br />

We went to a hillside by Lake<br />

Guatavita to begin our meditation circle.<br />

Some took LSD, some chewed their coca<br />

leaves, <strong>and</strong> some smoked strong cannabis,<br />

some did not indulge. However, our<br />

results were spectacular, <strong>and</strong> Dr. Andrew<br />

Weil published the first part of the event<br />

in Rolling Stone (3). I have published the<br />

whole story with illustrations in several<br />

articles <strong>and</strong> again in my 1999 book<br />

"MULTIDIMENSIONAL MIND:<br />

Remote Viewing in Hyperspace," chapter<br />

3. (4) After that event, the "mamu" of the<br />

Abintiqua tribe invited me to visit his<br />

village in the mountains.<br />

The small plane that took us part<br />

way served some sort of meat pie, which<br />

caused me great stomach <strong>and</strong> intestinal<br />

pain when we arrived at the little town<br />

where we were to catch a bus.<br />

Fortunately, the bus would not leave for<br />

two or more hours. The tourist guide <strong>and</strong><br />

translator took me to a place where food<br />

was served (cooked over an open fire<br />

outdoors). The woman who offered to<br />

help me looked just like my gr<strong>and</strong>mother.<br />

Her compassion was in the hot tea she<br />

served me <strong>and</strong> in her eyes. I asked the<br />

guide to find me some of the famous<br />

Colombian grass or hashish. I felt that<br />

since Rolling Thunder had taken <strong>and</strong><br />

processed the bite of a rattlesnake as part<br />

of his initiation ceremony to become a<br />

shaman, I should be able to process a<br />

little meat poisoning. The sacred herb<br />

was supplied, <strong>and</strong> we went outside to<br />

smoke it. I came back into the bed near<br />

the bathroom that the compassionate soul<br />

had provided for me. There I went into<br />

deep meditation while I breathed deeply<br />

into my intestines, <strong>and</strong> visualized them<br />

moving quickly. The process was<br />

completed happily in time to catch the<br />

"bus." This was a flatbed truck, with<br />

loose sides for people to hang onto. It<br />

had boards across from side to side,<br />

where the people sat with their chickens<br />

<strong>and</strong> iguanas (a food delicacy in that area).<br />

The truck bounced over the dirt road until<br />

we arrived at another small hill station (or<br />

town). From here, the only way to the<br />

native village was by mule or by jeep.<br />

We chose the jeep, which was large<br />

enough for eight or more people (I don't<br />

remember for sure now).<br />

This was near the equinox <strong>and</strong> also<br />

near the equator, so the sun was almost<br />

directly overhead. I was often confused<br />

about directions, because the shadows<br />

were different than they are at our home<br />

latitude in San Francisco, CA. Finally we<br />

arrived at the village that had mostly mud<br />

huts with thatched roofs. The Catholics<br />

had built a couple of concrete block<br />

buildings for the school <strong>and</strong> the teacher.<br />

The people were short. I am only<br />

5'3" <strong>and</strong> I was the tallest person in the<br />

village. The women giggled when they<br />

touched my thin blond hair, <strong>and</strong> all were<br />

welcoming, curious <strong>and</strong> friendly. The<br />

men wore homespun sheep's wool dresses<br />

<strong>and</strong> special hats. They walked barefoot<br />

over the earth. They all carried their bags<br />

of coca leaves with a gourd full of<br />

crushed seashells to mix with the juice of<br />

the coca. (Women picked the leaves, but<br />

were not allowed to chew it.) My<br />

experiences there comprise an amazing<br />

series of events, not included in this short<br />

report, which is focused only on the<br />

psychic activity as we were leaving. The<br />

mamu had asked me to stay longer to<br />

meet others who were walking over the<br />

hills from a different village. But I had<br />

already planned to fly back, <strong>and</strong> did not<br />

have the extra money to make any<br />

changes in flight plans whatsoever.<br />

When all the people settled into the<br />

jeep, we started off, only to stop on the<br />

road a short time later because of car<br />
