T. Flores is medicina medicina ..... esta noche esta nocheee, i love this icaro even my wife and my son sing it ! I am still shocked about the fact that she fell victim of evil sorcery, as I read your article some time ago I asked myself, how could this possibly be, why did nothing protect her, where was her master and so on and so on. Such a pity , but then I believe now she resides in one of the heavens may be trying to help from there in another way! my all time favourite from Dona Maria L. T.

Like what if it ends up being with one of those vengeful types you speak of? I have also experienced in a trusting circle seeing mother Mary. I saw glimpses of the saint with a royal blue cape that had stars.

The notion of Curanderos and Curanderas as "enlightened" beings persists in Western minds, and leads to much disappointment and the projections which inevitably arise when pedestals are dismantled. <br/><br/>I am currently producing a documentary for Australian ABC Radio National on Icaros, and would like some more source material from women. Do you own the copyright [ludicrous notion I realise, but such are the ways of corporate media] for those recordings, and would you be interested in sharing them if so? Hi Steve,

Thanks for your continuing elucidation of the paradoxical nature of the art of Curanderismo. The notion of Curanderos and Curanderas as “enlightened” beings persists in Western minds, and leads to much disappointment and the projections which inevitably arise when pedestals are dismantled.

I am currently producing a documentary for Australian ABC Radio National on Icaros, and would like some more source material from women. Do you own the copyright [ludicrous notion I realise, but such are the ways of corporate media] for those recordings, and would you be interested in sharing them if so?

His song is a little bit slower but same in the melody and positive appearence. Love it! Listening to the first healing song I recognize one icaro of Sr. Jacques Mabit from the Takiwasi Centre.
