Handmade Tobacco Pipe Made of Black Wood | Hand Carved | With a piece of Amazon Rainforest Wood | 12 cm.
You cannot learn the medicine if you don’t smoke.—Maestro curandero G.P., Pucallpa, via Jacques Mabit
Mapacho links the material and supernatural worlds in a very real way, through the mysterious, barely tangible medium of smoke, which makes the breath visible. Smoking tobacco is a magical alchemical act created by the union of air and fire.
Tobacco smoke is said to be the ideal sustenance of the spirits, who crave its intensity. Only humans can offer them this precious substance, and this creates a powerful symbiotic relationship: sacred smoke in exchange for supernatural protection. In this way, tobacco connects the human world with the spirit world, amplifying our prayers.
In working with mapacho, we assimilate its strength, and it becomes an ally. It nourishes the physical and energetic bodies by warming them, cleaning and straightening the channels, removing obstacles and blocks. Its smoke envelopes and protects the body, bringing alertness and decisiveness.
“The tobacco remedy centers or strengthens the mind,” says maestro tabaquero Ernesto in an interview. “The plant itself is associated with a powerfully healing spirit, which antagonizes malevolent entities . . . The patient frees himself from physical ills, but also—for those that are able to understand this—from a lot of bad spirits.”
