Nonka nonpoenare.

Nonka nonpoenare.

Nonka nonpoenare.

Non cano può nare, può nare.

Os povos ancestrais da Amazônia
pressentiram a chegada dos invasores.

Prevendo uma ofensiva que
devastaria nossa comunidade.

Em preparação a essa grande mudança,
eles colocaram os ensinamentos profundos

místicos para dormir,
escondendo-os dos invasores para

preservá-los para tempos futuros.

Assim como se enterra uma semente no fundo
da terra,

sabendo que chegará o momento
em que ela dará fruto novamente.

Assim foi no tempo do meu pai
que os anciões indígenas espalharam as

notícias pelas montanhas,
através da floresta, que havia chegado o

momento de uma antiga profecia se cumprir.

Essa profecia falava de um tempo que
pessoas de duas culturas muito diferentes

se iriam para compartilhar e aprender.

Essa cultura era chamada
de Okondô e a águia.

O dom do Okondô é o poder do coração
e o poder da águia, o poder da mente.

São duas metades de um todo que

com o tempo se separaram.

Assim, enquanto algum
vive intimamente conectado à terra e outro

vive como se a terra
não tivesse importância.

A águia deve visitar o condor,
o condor deve visitar a águia.

Jesus, I see you.

How are you?

Justin, tell us about your work
and what it means to you.

Sure.
So I'm Dr. Justin Dwyer.

I work in palliative medicine,
dealing with people who are dying,

and it's one of those things where people
often wonder, you know,

must be so depressing.

But actually, I have to say,
it's the most life-affirming environment

I've ever worked in because
it's all about living.

Now, we all know that we're going to die,
but actually being told it is happening

now,
you have an illness now

that is going to kill you,
produces, I think, a much more raw

visceral process of self-examination
that normally brings up

a lot of turmoil and despair.

And so we're really trying to find ways
for people to hold onto

their identity and their connections
as they let this happen to themselves,

because that's all you can do, right?

You can't stop yourself from dying.

How low is that, Tess?

Yes, this is Tess.

Oh, g'day Tess, it's Justin Dwyer and Marg
Ross from St Vincent's psilocybin trial.

Hi, Tess.

Yes, our trial through St Vincent's is
the first psychedelic-assisted

therapy trial in Australia.

And what we're looking at is how
psychological therapy

delivered pretty intensely with a dose
of psilocybin as part of the therapy.

We're looking at how that might
change people's experience of dying.

Can you do that following week?

Because we could— we've got
wriggle room for about 7 days.

I can push.

Mark's someone who's always thought a bit
outside the box,

and she went to a conference where this
work with peak psychedelic experience was

presented, then came and approached me
and asked if I would, you know,

as head of our unit, support
a research program examining exactly this.

So psilocybin is a psychedelic compound
that is typically found in the psilocybe

genre of magic mushrooms.

And the classic psychedelics
seem to be able to occasion

mystical type experience,
or quite deeply spiritual type

experiences,
or the transcendent, if you like.

So these experiences of awe.

Miquel.

Brian, he cried a lot of tears during it,
actually, and mostly there were tears

of joy and awe,

but he also said some of them are regret

at the lack of ability to have seen
and to know

the depth of meaning and embedded divinity

that he came to see

through that experience.

And actually what it did was make
him absolutely

un-fearful about what came after death.

He will walk across that bridge,
I know, with great expectancy and joy.

Yeah.

Ooh.

Ooh.

You know, it really shocked me that what's
sort of come out of it is that people feel

as though you know,
their whole life has kind of made sense

in the context of knowing
that they're going to die.

And even though I've worked in palliative
care, you know, cancer now for a good sort

of 15 years, I didn't see that one coming.

Hi.

Hello.
Thank you.

I wanted to be part of the trial to

learn how to deal with my own emotions

and that I kind of hope, like, to let go
from everything that I'm

holding inside me.

And that includes, like, I don't know,
fear of the— I don't know,

just trying to be constantly strong.

How are you feeling today?
Are you feeling— Yes, I'm feeling good.

Yes.
Yes.

The thing about the psilocybin is that
it doesn't actually put

anything in your head.

So it's not like a drug you take and it,
you know, inserts experiences.

Everything that comes up for you
with the psilocybin, it's yours.

It's all from inside of you.

And it takes you to some
extraordinary places.

But we will be with you the whole time.

So we just got everything ready,
so headphones, eyeshades,

we've got a nice heated blanket.

That's the psilocybin.

We want it to be easy
and we want the pill to simply

fall out straight into their hand.

Um, and it will just tumble down.

And do you need to put
your arm back under there?

Okay, here we go.
