I was very far away, outside my body and suddenly I started to sing, I actually interrupted the shaman but in a funny way I felt that my song joined his icaro, it wasn't myself, I mean it wasn't me consciously, I suddenly felt something inside me and I remember perfectly saying to myself " I'm singing" I just couldn't stop it. It started and it wasn't me, it wasn't my language, Spanish; it was ayahuasca's spirit singing through me. I felt the power of my words and how the sounds "melted" in the Universe. It's been, so far, one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had with ayahuasca.
