The principal pillar of the Nature Within is to assist in the collective awakening to the truth of our existence. As we awaken we see that in fact there is no individual and the illusion of separation is broken down. From this place we see that it is futile and a never-ending search to look for happiness, peace and love in objects of the material world. We see that all we need to do is to turn or
even more to just rest back into that which we already are. In the journey of awakening there are many doors all leading to the same place. In this approach we are guided and led by our connection to the indigenous traditions of the world and their sacred plant medicines. The Nature Within is dedicated to working with the lineage of the Siona and Ingano from Putomayo, Colombia. These lineages are transmitted through Taita Juan Guillermo Chindoy. A powerful and open-hearted shaman who was recognized at a young age as a healer and a carrier of the ancient wisdoms of the jungle. Taita Juan has dedicated his life to serving mankind and delivering the teachings of the ancestors in their purest form. His work is a journey in which one can return to their essence and see that all is Spirit, God or Pure Energy. The Nature Within spends almost half of the year studying and assisting Taita Juan. In the modern day world there is a strong conflict amongst humankind between the energy of fear and that of love. The Nature Within is working person by person to awaken each individual to their true nature so that they can go out into the world empowered to make a change in their community, family and workplace. In this approach we find it particularly important to weave the Shamanistic work with the understanding of the meditative, non dual transmission of modern spiritual lineages. Taita Juan often expresses how in the time of our ancestors they didn’t think so much and as a result where not plagued with fears, doubts, uncertainties and illness both mental and physical. The ever-quickening pace of society breads anxiety, stress and illness. We at The Nature Within are dedicated to maintaining the ways of our ancestors will adapting to the needs of the modern individual. At the end our mission is to awaken to each person to their inherent qualities of love, peace and happiness. To invoke the deepest longing inside each individual to take the journey of finding out what it really means to exist. Using self-enquiry to look at the bigger questions in life such as: Who am I? What is the element of my experience that was never born and will never die? What is the element of my experience that is continuous and has never left me? This journey is for people of all walks of life. Its important to know that we are all at the same distance from the truth of our existence and thus this is a path for all. As we awaken we see what is important in our lives and we take responsibility for our actions and treat Mother Nature and one another with love. This path is for those who want to life a life worth living and to give the next generations a reason to hope. We hope you can join us soon for a retreat, one on one shamanic ceremony or one of our other offerings! Blessings and light on your path
