EAGLE KURIPE
This is a self-applicator pipe for shamanic tobacco snuff from the Amazon, known as Rapé.
Used in shamanic ceremonies and meditation.
This is a handcrafted Kuripe in the shape of an eagle head by talented artisans from Peru.
The kuripe is hand-carved from Serpentine stone, which is sourced in Machu Picchu.
Rapé is considered to be a sacred, shamanic medicine. It’s traditionally prepared using ground tobacco mixed with the ashes of master plants.
Because the medicine is sacred, the indigenous people take rapé as a prayer calling upon the forces of Nature, the blessing of the animals of the forest and power of medicinal plants to heal and give us strength.
Rapé is administered with two different types of pipes, which are typically made from bamboo or bone. The first type of pipe requires the assistance of another person, who blows the snuff with a powerful blast into each nostril of the partner who is receiving the rapé. For that reason it is generally referred to as the blow pipe and, in Brazil, the 2-person pipe is called the “Tepi”.
The Appropriate Set & Setting for a Rapé Ritual
Because the act of taking rapé is a prayer, the set and setting will impact the experience of your prayer. The best places to take rapé are outside in nature, at the altar during a medicine ceremony or in a quiet sacred space indoors, in silence or with high-vibrational music playing. Avoid taking rapé where you might be interrupted. An ideal setting allows you to fully experience the effect of the rapé without distractions, and to have the space for quiet contemplation.
