When I think about the Amazon rainforest and those who have called it home in the past 500 years - especially as we learn that they were more advanced than we had supposed - I think back to Terence McKenna's dying hope to save the plant medicines that are being forgotten and eradicated with deforestation. We have no idea what manner of spiritually relevant plants are falling into obscurity cum annihilation, and given the resurgent interest in (and power of) ayahuasca, it's worth taking action to document and remember them.
