LIMITAÇÕES ENTRE O RELIGIOSO E O PÚBLICO: O USO POLÍTICO-RELIGIOSO DA AYAHUASCA

Revista Fragmentos de Cultura - Revista Interdisciplinar de Ciências Humanas December 19, 2016 Laionel Vieira Da Silva, Bruno Rafael Silva Nogueira Barbosa 2 citations

Ayahuasca is a beverage considered sacred, present in various religious lines (Santo Daime, Barquinha, União Vegetal), which often share only the drink itself as a common element. The use of this psychoactive beverage has raised questions about the limits of its restrictive use. This study aims to present, through a literature review, the limitations between the religious and public use of ayahuasca. A division is observable between a "sacred" and a "profane" space, where both are guided and directed by the need for the institutionalized systematization of the numinous experience.
