Holy Mother: Ayahuasca is a master teacher plant from South America that is capable of allowing us humans the possibility to heal many ailments and diseases of the mind, body, and spirit complex. That is not to say that she will do all of the work for us. Holy Mother is an expression of my personal love and gratitude for what she has done for me.
Our great responsibility is to continue to work to develop our consciousness outside of the sacred medicine ceremony and implement the teachings of Ayahuasca into our lives; for as we know, the mind is a tricky and picky customer! This song suggests the concept of partnership with the plant spirits of Ayahuasca, and I personally advocate this relationship, the relation of partnership. It is one, like all partnerships, that requires effort, time, patience, trust, honesty, a willingness to compromise, to adjust the viewpoint of the mind to allow greater scope of vision. Above all, it requires love and surrender.

HOLY MOTHER
Am Em G D
Holy Mother, it’s by thy grace that I know the being who lives behind this face
Am Em G D
And I know that I truly am, so much more that this mere mortal man
Holy Mother, keep me safe as I journey to my darkest space
Am C G
Shine your light on any shadows that you find, free my spirit from the
D
confines of my mind
Oh, Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca, you are the healer in this journey of this heart
Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca, I pray we’ll never be apart
Holy Mother, it’s by thy grace that I know the being who lives behind this face
And I know that I truly am, so much more that this mere mortal man
Holy Mother, keep me safe as I journey through my darkest space
And shine your light on any shadows that you find, free my spirit from the confines of this mind
Oh, Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca, you are the healer in this journey of this heart
Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca, I pray we’ll never be apart
Dai ding dai, da ding da dai, da di ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da dai
Dai ding dai, da ding da dai, da di ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da dai
Holy Mother, you keep us safe as we journey through our darkest space
Shine your light on any shadows that you find, free our spirits from the confines of our minds
Oh, Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca, you are the partner in this journey of this heart
Ayahuasca, Ayahuasca, I know we’ll never be apart
Dai ding dai, da ding da dai, da di ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da dai
Dai ding dai, da ding da dai, da di ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da dai
Dai ding dai, da ding da dai, da di ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da dai
Dai ding dai, da ding da dai, da di ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da ding da dai

I heard a few of the songs from this album at a sacred sound healing retreat. My favourite tracks are Que Florezca La Luz and Nuestro Mundo. Absolutely stunning music I never get tired of listening. Dj Rise
