3 day 2 Night Ayahuasca Ceremony May. 13-15 with Huni Kuin Musical Ceremonies in our Semi-Private Area

Hey Soul Quest Family, 

for this special weekend a family from the Huni Kuin tribe in Brazil is joining our church during their 2022 US tour. They are a powerful ancestral family of Txanas (medicine music players and guides) and Pajes (spiritual leaders) coming from the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest. 

“Txana Txukuabu” means “all the indigenous musicians together” in Hatxa Kui, the 6000 year old language of the Huni Kuins. This is the name of the group who will travel to the United States as well as the name of the Multicultural Center that has been created in Brazil. 

Txana Txukuabu is a powerful band and a spiritual team that invokes the spirits of the animals and the forest. They bring us the soul of the Amazon rainforest through their traditional songs and ancient rituals. This band is the perfect mix between Shanenawas and Huni Kuins, bringing the energy of the ancestors, animals, and placts of the forest. 

They are recognized by the tribal elders as official ambassadors of the Huni Kuin culture, carrying a long lineage of musicians and traditional wisdom in their family. 

This Huni Kuin retinue is represented by Tume, Dua Ninawa, Txana Ibã. 

Tume is the representative of all the Huni Kuin women of the Humaita River in the Acre region of Brazil. Tume is “The Mother ” who holds ancient knowledge learned from her grandmother and elders. She has dedicated her life to continuing her lineage and ensuring the ongoing practice of their sacred wisdom by training young Huni Kuins in their traditional songs and art craft. Tume was recently elected into the local government as Director of the Department of Culture of Tarauaća, the main indigenous city in the area, which opens directly in the Amazon rainforest. She masters the traditional songs with a strong feminine voice and guides her people in the path of love, respect, and honesty. 

Ninawa is the son of Tume and a master in guitar, ukulele and charango. He also plays the drums, bass and variety of Andean flutes to accompany other musicians in the band. Ninawa is a skilled singer, mastering both the traditional chants and the new age songs played with string instruments. 

Txana Iba is the brother of Tume and another master of the guitar, ukulele and charango. His music is powerful yet sweet and soft, evoking sounds of animals and nature from the Amazon. He weaves the light filled, uplifting energy of the Huni Kuins into his music and sings primarily about happiness as a choice in life. 

Txana Txukuabu is both a spiritual band and an organization we have established in the Amazon rainforest of Brazil. We are in the process of building out a Multicultural Retreat Center that will run two different Art Schools: One for music and the other for textiles and art crafts that will directly benefit the local children. 

They are also promoting our next Multicultural Women’s Festival in the Center, taking place in October 2022. 

The Purpose of all of our work is to preserve the Amazon Rainforest that is highly threatened by logging and mining companies. We do so through forging strong ties with the guardians of the sacred and ecologically important forest, collaborating with these wisdom keepers to create secure spaces where they can continue developing their cultures in peace as the original stewards of the Amazon Rainforest and its ancient wisdom for centuries to come.

Soul Quest Ayahuasca Church of Mother Earth is a spiritual learning and healing center focused on providing the community with service, education, spiritual fellowship, healing practices, and guidance.  Our neo-shamanic church blends shamanic traditions from the amazon with our western culture. We embrace all paths of a free responsible search for truth and spiritual meaning and believe that each person is a unique & individual expression of the Great Source of Life and that each person is sacred and worthy of love.

We believe in the rights of Mother Earth, and in protecting the practice of Mother Earth-based South Native American spiritual traditions, ceremonies, and sacred indigenous natural medicines. What is of the earth is our holy sacrament, and we retain the rights as citizens of this nation to use plant medicines as tools for the benefit of our physical health, spiritual growth, and personal evolution.

We do not charge for the medicine, but for the work of accompaniment, for meals, accommodation, psycho-spiritual integration with trained coaches, psychological support, and medical supervision!

Soul Quest utilizes an independent medical service that provides medical support throughout our weekend retreats to ensure everyone’s safety, support, and that all your needs are taken care of at any point during your stay.

If you cancel your participation in a retreat for any reason, the cancellation policy below will apply, with no exceptions. We wish we could compensate people for unforeseen circumstances (injury, family emergency, etc), but we have costs already incurred when reserving retreat centers and hotels. We have designed our cancellation policy to be as compassionate as possible in the case that your plans change. But to protect yourself further, we strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance.

IF YOU CANCEL THE AYAHUASCA RETREAT:

We have never had to cancel a retreat, however, if we do cancel a trip due too few participants, we will refund to you all deposits and payments you have paid. We cannot, however, compensate you for airfare or travel costs incurred. In the unlikely event that SOUL QUEST AYAHUASCA CHURCH OF MOTHER EARTH must cancel a Ayahuasca retreat due to weather, natural disaster or political upheaval, we cannot guarantee a refund – it will be depending on receiving a refund from the venue / tour operator we work with. To cover these risks, we highly recommend you purchase travel insurance.

TRAVEL INSURANCE:
The best way to protect yourself from any unforeseen circumstance is to purchase trip insurance. Travel Insurance can protect you in case:
• you cancel your participation in the Ayahuasca retreat

• medical expenses and the cost of repatriation should you become ill or injured

We recommend TRAVELGUARD, which offers a variety of travel insurance, including the option for a comprehensive “cancel for any reason” policy.

This comprehensive package is called the ” Gold Package Cancel for Any Reason” Policy”.

Travelguard can give you quotes for each scenario.
