CORDOBA, Martha Isabel; VALLEJO, Álvaro Roberto  e  SAA, Juan Manuel. TRANSFERENCE PHENOMENA IN THE URBAN RITUAL OF TAKES OF AYAHUASCA. Univ. Salud [online]. 2012, vol.14, n.1, pp.67-77. ISSN 0124-7107.

This article aims at the understanding of the phenomenon "transference" that are established between the physician yagecero indigenous (Indian Medical yagecero refers to the indigenous leader formed to conduct a ritual of taking ayahuasca who shares his ancestral knowledge within or outside his community. He is also known as Mayor, Curaca, Shaman, or Taita. This article will use the term yagecero) and the drinkers in the ceremonies of ayahuasca (Name of the rattan extracted from the Amazon jungle foothills that when it is mixed with other medicinal plants is commonly referred to as Yage in Western society.) in the city of Cali. The research was developed from a qualitative methodology (discourse analysis), with a descriptive- exploratory design. Two groups are formed, each one of them consisting of a yagecero, and two participants: skilled and unskilled, who responded to semi-structured interviews, supplemented with observations of nonverbal behavior during the ritual. The results suggest that participants with more experience tend to establish a kind of positive transfer, as opposed to those less experienced who established a bond ambivalent, and / or negative with the yagecero, or Taita. It is concluded that the participants unconsciously updated primary conflicts in the figure of yagecero. The contextual, historical and personality characteristics also influence the transfer.
