The Kuripé is a sacred tool, an object of power that makes it possible to connect with the spirit of the Rapé.

The Rapé is projected through a utensil called Tepi or Kuripé by blowing (it is never sniffed or inhaled).

It is projected in both nostrils, balancing the two energy meridians of the body. The right side is associated with the masculine or rational and the left with the feminine or intuitive.

To receive this ancient medicine we must be receptive, and in inner stillness. We will always try to take it in an appropriate place, and focusing a beautiful prayer or intention towards the sacred Rapé.

Can anyone apply Rapé?

There is a difference between applying to yourself and applying to others. Self-application is legal for people who study with this medicine and it is essential for the person to be able to identify their own personal power together with the Rapé.

Not everyone can apply Rapé to others.

It is recommended that the self-application begin after the person has gone through a healing ritual with Rapé and thus becomes aware of this powerful medicine. for the experienced self-application is done before applying to others, as a form of connection and protection.

Within the indigenous traditions, the person who applies Rapé needs to do a deep study, with strong applications to deepen the knowledge of medicine. This must follow a special diet where sugar, sexual relations, meat and salt are removed.

During the study period the person uses Rapé daily, praying and asking for instruction and the blessing of the spirit of this medicine.

It is essential to understand that the main reason for this study is for something simple: when one person blows Rapé into another, there is a strong energy exchange between the two, especially for the recipient and it is important to know what energy is received. The intention is key here, because according to traditions, Rapé can cure or generate ailments, depending on the intention behind the breath.

Applying Rapé is a great responsibility. We must fully know and trust whoever applies Rapé to us, because we are putting our health in their hands. And also whoever applies must be aware that he receives energy from the person whom he “blows” and therefore must do the study to be able to handle and understand the powerful energy of Rapé.

There are several breaths that can be used, varying in duration, intensity, and closure. The breath used in the projection and the connection we have with medicine also greatly influences the effect of the Ancestral rapé.

When Rapé is used, we must bear in mind that what enters us are sacred plants from the mountains, the forest, and the healing or healing spirits of the Amazon jungle. Therefore, it is always good to have respect towards the sacred tobacco and towards all the ancestral energies of the Amazon and nature.

Use of Rapé

Rapé is a sacred medicine, a powerful spirit of the forest that must be treated as such. It is a very strong medicine that can bring good or bad depending on its use.

Rapé is not taken every moment. For those who study it, it is recommended to take it in the morning, on an empty stomach, at the end of the afternoon, after work and at night, before going to sleep, to bring good dreams and have a peaceful night. In rituals it can be taken several times depending on the need. For those who study it, it is advisable to take breaks for a few days.

It is not recommended to take Rapé under the sun, especially when the sun is more intense.

You should avoid applying Rapé in public (who are not familiar with this practice). According to the Huni Kuin, the person who applies it can receive a negative energy from the observer, since by not understanding it, he sees a vice instead of a sacred medicine in taking it.

You should also avoid very strong and very weak murmurs, which are not good for the person applying or for the person receiving.

It is not recommended to lend the application instruments, mainly the kuripé, unless it is a person who takes Rapé and in whom you fully trust.

Only take Rapé from whom you know and trust. Avoid taking Rapé of unknown origin.
