Taita Mauricio

Taita Mauricio — Master Guide and Tradition Keeper of Putumayo (Colombia)

Taita Mauricio is a hereditary tradition keeper who has dedicated his entire life to serving and preserving the ancient knowledge of the Putumayo region in Colombia. He is widely known in the community as one of the most talented and respected shamans, deeply dedicated to honoring and protecting ancestral roots.

A crucial feature of his approach is complete autonomy and purity of the process: Mauricio maintains his own shamanic garden in Colombia, where he personally cultivates all the plants used for the ceremonies.

Experience and International Recognition:

– International Practice: Mauricio regularly conducts ceremonies both in Colombia and as part of international programs in Spain and Turkey, where participants deeply value his exceptional mastery, the safe space he creates, and his close personal attention to everyone.

– Peer Recognition: Master Alvaro, an experienced guide with a background working with the Shipibo, Shuar, Yawanawa, and other traditions, notes that meeting Mauricio completely transformed his perception of shamanic work. It was with Mauricio that Alvaro undertook a dry Ayahuasca diet and his next stage of initiation.

– Depth and Atmosphere: Ceremonies led by Mauricio are accompanied by the live sound of icaros and the drum, opening up the multidimensionality of space and leaving participants in a state of profound healing and clarity.
