“Bufo has dissolved me before—sometimes painfully, sometimes into the bliss of absolute oneness. I know what it means, experientially, to be the Eternal Now. But the real work begins when that sublime state fades, when life returns to the ordinary. Perhaps Bufo shows us the truth—presence, completion, infinite wholeness—but it is up to me to recognize it in the mundane as well as the ecstatic.“

“The last time I sat with Bufo was pure surrender—surrendering even the idea of surrender. Every thought, every self-reference slipped away like water, leaving nothing to hold on to. In that letting go, there was a sweet freedom: life exactly as it is, without judgment, comparison, or even the faintest urge to change.“

“For me, Bufo is a powerful pointer, a cosmic embrace, an acceptance so deep it erases the need to know or want anything more. I will sit with Bufo again, out of love for the medicine and the relationship. But the greater medicine lies in living what it reveals—integrating what already is, into what already is.”

“Divine. Ineffable. Whoa. All fit and none can capture the power of toad medicine. What a gift Sacred Heart Sonora is providing. A profound first sitting with Bufo, touching the other side. Most recently, absolute dissolution of self and oneness. While the experience can connect with the divine, the integration into daily life is the true gift and the real work. Wise words from a friend for my first time sitting with Bufo – Lean into it.
I wonder what the world could look like if more of humanity could touch this side of… whatever we want to call it. If this calls to you, answer the call.”
