Integrating Lineages and Wisdom Traditions
If there’s one thing I’ve learned on this path, it’s that no single tradition holds the full truth. The divine speaks through many voices, many lineages, and many wisdom traditions, each offering a piece of the puzzle. At Entheogenic Church, my wife and I have dedicated ourselves to weaving these threads together into a living tapestry—one that reflects the wholeness of humanity and the shared essence of the sacred.
Our foundation rests on a convergence of powerful lineages. First, there’s the deep current of Cristo-hermetic shamanism that flows through me. It’s a mystical tradition, one that sees Christ not as a figure confined to a single religion, but as a universal archetype of divine love, light, and redemption. The Hermetic aspect reminds us of the ancient wisdom that bridges heaven and earth, aligning the microcosm of the soul with the macrocosm of creation.
Then there’s the profound influence of Tibetan Buddhism and the Bon traditions. These lineages teach us about the nature of mind, the Clear Light that is the ultimate reality, and the intricate process of transformation through awareness. Bon, being the ancient shamanic tradition of Tibet, carries a raw, earth-centered wisdom that harmonizes beautifully with the transcendental insights of Buddhism. Together, they remind us that the path to liberation involves not just transcending the material world, but deeply honoring and integrating it.
And, of course, entheogenic practices play a central role. Across traditions—from the Huni Kuin and Hopi to the Sioux and Santo Daime tribes—sacred plant medicines have been used as portals to divine connection. These medicines strip away illusions, dissolve egoic barriers, and allow us to experience the interconnectedness of all things. They help us touch the Rainbow Realms, the spaces where the higher bodies come alive and where divine love becomes palpable.
Bringing these lineages together is not about creating a new religion—it’s about honoring the essence they share: the quest for truth, the commitment to love, and the courage to evolve. Each tradition offers tools, teachings, and perspectives that, when integrated, create a holistic path for soul evolution.
The Warriors of the Rainbow
This integration aligns with a prophecy that has resonated across cultures and time: the prophecy of the Warriors of the Rainbow. Indigenous traditions, from the Hopi to the Cree, speak of a time when people of all races, nations, and creeds would come together to heal the Earth and restore balance. These Warriors of the Rainbow are not defined by their heritage but by their heart—by their willingness to embody truth, protect the sacred, and serve as bridges between worlds.
At Entheogenic Church, we see this prophecy coming alive. The Warriors of the Rainbow are not mythical figures—they are us. They are you and me, and everyone who chooses to walk the path of love, healing, and unity. This movement has been acknowledged by many traditions, from the Rainbow Body teachings of Tibetan Buddhism to the Eagle and Condor Prophecy of the Americas. Each speaks to the same truth: humanity is at a crossroads, and our collective evolution depends on our ability to unite the mind and the heart, the intellect and the spirit.
A Sacred Mosaic
This work is not easy. Integrating lineages and wisdom traditions requires humility, discernment, and an unwavering commitment to the truth. It’s not about picking and choosing what feels good; it’s about honoring the integrity of each tradition while allowing them to dance together in harmony.
What emerges from this process is a sacred mosaic—a path that honors the full spectrum of the human experience. It’s a path that teaches us how to live with integrity, how to see with clarity, and how to love with the full force of our being. It’s a path that calls us to be both students and stewards, both seekers and healers, both warriors and lovers.
As we move forward, the mission of Entheogenic Church and Shamanic Ananda is to hold space for this integration, to offer teachings that reflect the wisdom of the ages while meeting the unique needs of our time. We’re not here to reinvent the wheel; we’re here to ensure that it keeps turning, carrying humanity toward its highest potential.
The lineages we draw from, the prophecies we honor, and the practices we share are all part of this unfolding story. Together, they remind us that we are connected—not just to each other, but to something infinitely greater. And in that connection lies the power to heal, to transform, and to rise as the Warriors of the Rainbow, ready to illuminate the world with love and light.
