Don Pedro Guerra
Don Pedro was born in a remote jungle area of the Peruvian Amazon. Growing up in this region, where fierce and primitive Indian tribes still existed, he started at an early age learning the hunting and jungle skills of survival from his father. The poverty of his family only permitted him a few years of schooling, after which he worked to help support the family, which included 11 younger siblings. At the age of 24, after two years in the Peruvian military, his spiritual life called him, and he entered deep into the jungle. There he spent almost two years in complete seclusion, undergoing the intense disciplines and rigorous dieting which working with different plant medicines entails. The spirits of the jungle and the plants became his teachers, and he learned through direct contact with them, how to become a shaman and healer, and how to use and administer different plant medicines to his patients. For the past 24 years he has worked successfully healing and treating many people with all types of ailments. During that period of shamanic training, the plant spirits that appeared to him also taught him their songs and melodies, which are unique to him and which he uses in ceremony and healing. He has continued to work with the disciplines and plant diets, which are part of the shamanic path of an Amazon healer, spending weeks and months in isolation in the jungle. |
