Abstract
OSORIO, Vicente Valenzuela. Articulation for a meeting between divine communicability in shamanic practices with hallucinogens, and revelation in the Christian sense. Franciscanum [online]. 2023, vol.65, n.180, pp.13-13. Epub Feb 12, 2024. ISSN 0120-1468. https://doi.org/10.21500/01201468.6754.
This paper seeks to propose bridges for dialogue or articulation between the experience of divine communication in shamanic practices with hallucinogens and Christianity's experience of revelation. This dialogue has been truncated since colonial times when the missionaries prohibited indigenous shamanic practices. But in the context of Pope Francis' magisterium and in the relational visions of the world, it is necessary to suggest an articulation that allows its unity yet respecting the difference and autonomy of cultural and religious fields and levels of language. In this sense, the method used is one of mediation and articulation. The main result is to notice that there are meeting points (care and life), and differences (the way in which care and living are concretized). In addition, within the framework of the problem of the unity and difference of these experiences, the notion of plenitude or pleroma appears as a horizon and enriching gesture of the various senses and layers of living.
