I signed up and paid for Way of the Shaman class with instructor Anthony Rios in Texas. This is what happened, my personal experience, during introduction:
1. Others before, and after, my turn told their long stories without interruption, without the instructor terminating their introduction. When I was sharing my reason for being there, Rios cut me off (domination/control) and simply terminated my introduction saying I have too many reasons.
2. During the exercise of seeking the underworld for another person, I patiently waited for this person to finish explaining their answer to the man she had journeyed for. When she finished, I had the opportunity to explain the answer I got for her to her. Rios knew and could hear that I was still communicating with her, yet, he announced the session was over while I was in deep discussion answering this lady's beautiful questions. I didn't want to be rude to the lady who was ever so curious so we lowered our tone and still talked, she was excited and i was excited for her. Then Rios started to talk over us (control and domination) with no regards that this lady and I clearly were still working on clarifying the message I received for her. I felt like the lady and I were children as he admonished us and told us to stop talking.
Three months ago, before I met God in full enlightenment, I would have called him out on his behavior and shut that controlling/dominating behavior down real quick because I have an indomitable spirit and integrity.
What I learned from this experience is that humans of all walks of life have no decency of consideration for no one but themselves and their own ego in their low vibrational state of being. These humans, like Joseph Caiaphas, want to stymie/block true goodness that others possess because they are not competent/qualified to provide such high quality to anyone themselves, they want to keep true goodness in the dark and away from the light so their ego can rule.
I affiliate with God and his creations of higher dimensional beings who vibrate at higher frequencies in higher dimensions. I stay aware of the low vibrational, karmatic beings who are trying their hardest to trap and cage a truly enlightened person like me; I stay only Aware of these beings, and don't engage, because it is my job to report to God and others their behavior, well, because I am a lightworker so God can pass judgement.
And so my awareness deepended about Humanity truly being Infected with these low vibrational beings since before the dinosaurs with their dominance/control, and that this is the Disease upon Gaia that needs to be cured in order to create the harmonious world for humans of love and light because this vision of a peaceful world is what God intended for us.
I will ascend, and Rios or any noun, can not stop me. This behavior from a shaman should not have happened.
FSS has made shamanic studies available to others outside the tribal communities. The programs are organized, thorough, and maintain respect for the tribal cultures they were derived from. The work of this organization is helping to perpetuate and secure a future for shamanic knowledge and traditions that have been sadly eroded by modern medicine, big pharma, and modern culture.
