Most people think that certain kinds of Mimosa Root such as MHRB (Mimosa Hostilis) is highly visionary due to its abundant levels of 1.0-2.0% DMT (Dimethyltryptamine) but this assumption is not shared with local curanderos (healers) in the region who have used mimosa root for healing for generations.
They believe it is the consciousness of the mimosa tree (which is a far more highly evolved conscious entity than the individual human) which diagnoses and treats spiritual disease through direct perception. According to their healing philosophy, the majority of the human race suffers from the spiritual disease of relying on the limited vision of the eyes for an accurate interpretation of reality. They believe the spirit of the mimosa plant teaches us to see through the heart which gives us the accurate vision of spiritual sight and perception.
When practiced regularly this will inspire one to live a conscious life of balance and harmony with all other forms of life. This spiritual discipline ultimately leads an individual to a state of being free of disease, pain and suffering. Through this transpersonal perception of reality one comes to understand that the only "dis-ease" an individual can suffer from is the physical illusion that they are separate from nature and others.
Scientists from the local laboratories agree that most of the species of Mexican mimosa root do not contain DMT or any other known psychoactive or hallucinogenic substances, yet they magically produce some of the most profound shifts in consciousness, personal insights and realizations (which are experienced in one's nightly dreams) of all of the known plants used medicinally by shamans in the region.
Preparing Mimosa Root for shamanic journeying is a complete ritual which has several distinct stages including the harvesting and drying of the mimosa root, the cooking of the sacred brew and the actual healing ceremony. Mexican curanderos say the bark of the mimosa root provides direct contact with cosmic consciousness. They consider it to be a powerful shamanic ally because the spirit of the mimosa is known to bless humans with the gift of spiritual sight.
Shamans believe this is scientific proof that the spirit of the mimosa tree does the actual healing and not DMT. They do view Mimosa Hostilis as the master ally of the Mimosa species. In their view, MHRB is the gateway to the transpersonal or spiritual realms in which immediate transformational shifts in awareness and being can occur by personally experiencing being one with all of creation.
