Jim Bensie and Janine Kotocavage welcome Mona Rain and don Pepe Arancibia live from Cusco, Peru. don Pepe, an accomplished and highly experienced shaman-curandero, opened the show with a beautiful and powerful blessing/prayer for all our listeners in his native Quechua language. He shared how he became a spiritual tour guide, his journey and ultimately how he cultivated his relationship with Pachamama, Mother Earth, the plants and their healing properties. It was a very rare opportunity to interview this enlightened man that shows profound gratitude. It is an amazing show which provided insight and understanding into a life and belief of a shaman-cursndero. We were thrilled to have him mostly importantly share is heart, along with wisdom and knowledge of Pachamama, Mother Earth, the sacred plants and the relationship with them. He is an extremely loving and humble man, it was a true honor!
