The Ayahuasca Test Pilots Handbook: The Essential Guide to Ayahuasca Journeying

Great read and very helpful on keeping you safe and have a good journey!
This was a great read! Really insightful on ayahuasca and gives a good sense of how to get a full experience of it. It doesn't enforce anything on you but gives you lots of helpful tips, ideas, and ways to get the fullest experience out of ayahuasca. Helpful on letting you know harmful plants and dark shamans as well. A really great general knowledge for anyone interested in journeying with La Medicina. I can not wait to have an experience of my own but this book has made me much more knowledgeable on what to do in order to have a good experience using ayahuasca. For anyone who is expecting this book to go in detail about an ayahuasca experience it touches on it but it can't fully describe it because everyone will have their own experience. It's more helpful to learn about the plants it comes from, shamans, and tips to make your experience happen in the most useful way possible than describing only his experience with the drink.

Very informational but could build expectations
Good book with good information but could build a lot of expectations to a first timer of mother ayahuasca. Even though it says everyone experience is different and you shouldn't have expectations. I would suggest it to someone who perhaps has already been to one ceremony and looking to return to another.

A Wondrous guidebook , describing beautifully what is so often indescribable.
This is an essential tour guide for those who explore inner space.Unlike so many writings which focus simply on how to get there, the Tests Pilots handbook bravely guides you on how to navigate the terrain when you do get there--including the key spiritual doctrine of "Ask for what you want!" It seems the collective reality experienced with Ayahuasca is an immense and novel space, full of spiritual treasures and risks, where we are truly children. Like any child new to a big big city, it is critical to have proper guidance and protection. This is what the Consciousness of the Ayahuasca gives you (obviously massively!) on the innerpaths, that a chemical alone does not.Practical and important guidance is also offered on a day to day level .A fun Must Read for those who would travel inner space!

Thorough description with the science and spiritual
I love that this book includes lots of the science behind the medicine as well as the spiritual aspects. I appreciate that the author not only shares the details of his personal experience, he describes as much as possible, the different possibilities one could expect and how best to be prepared. I personally need to know what would be a normal or common response while on the medicine so I can better mitigate fears or anxieties when certain things do happen.

A misnomer
Its an interesting, entertaining book, but the idea that you can somehow prepare for an ayahuasca experience by reading this book is ridiculous.The author knows this- but I guess the title sells his books.Truth be told, in the end, you leave everything you’ve read at the door of the maloca and enter with nothing but openness and intention.
