Description: The kuripe is a traditional instrument used in sacred medicine ceremonies, primarily in the administration of snuff (or "raph"), a mixture of pulverized herbs and tobacco that comes from indigenous traditions of the Amazon. The kuripe is a tube-shaped or "Y" applicator, commonly made of bamboo, wood or bone, and is used to self-apply snuff directly into the nostrils. Characteristics of the Kuripe Materials: Kuripes are made of natural materials such as bamboo, bone, wood, ceramic or even cane. Shape: Its design has a "Y" or "L" shape, where one tip goes to the mouth and the other to the nostril. Personal use: Unlike the tepi, which is used to administer snuff to another person, the kuripe is used to self-administer snuff. Use of the Kuripe The kuripe is used by those who seek to have a spiritual experience with snuff. A small amount of the powder is placed in the central part of the kuripe and then, blowing through the mouth, the powder is sent directly to the nose. This process helps to clear the mind, open the third eye, increase concentration and generate a deeper connection with the environment or shamanic ceremonies. Benefits of Using the Kuripe 1. Purification: Rap administered with the kuripe is traditionally used to energetically cleanse and clear emotional or mental blockages. 2. Concentration and meditation: Users report greater mental clarity and spiritual connection. 3. Ceremonial tool: It is essential in shamanic ceremonies, where connection with nature, spirit and healing is sought. Considerations Intention: Since rap is a sacred medicine, its use must be done with respect, intention and in an appropriate space. Dosage: It is important not to exceed the amount of rap used to avoid adverse effects. The kuripe then becomes a fundamental tool for those who practice the ceremonial use of snuff in a spiritual context.
