MORE ABOUT BEYI

Each of us, together with our Ancestors, determined why we would come to this earth plain at this time. We have collectively discovered that these times are critical. Our world is out of balance with the rhythm of Spirit and Nature; our destiny beckons us to make the changes necessary for future generations.

Beyi offers an opportunity for those yearning to know what their role in this collective world is about, what gifts are ready to burst forward and be shared, what doorway is waiting to be swung open.

BEYI is a three-day ritual led by Malidoma and facilitated by elders who will contribute to unearthing each participant’s mystical meaning in this world, encouraging each to embrace it by drinking it in.

BEYI is available to any person who feels their gift, their purpose pressing from within, ready to burst into this world.

BEYI offers clarity about ourselves, allowing a legitimate claim to community.

BEYI is the first step and prerequisite toward eldership in the Dagara tradition.

This is an extraordinary opportunity to reach into the realm of ancient wisdom, touch the heart of your soul, and hear your Spiritual Name resonating with the pulse of your purpose for being here at this time.  Malidoma is uniquely gifted to take each person’s story to the Ancestors and translate back each person’s calling for being here at this time in the form a Special spiritual name in the Dagara language.

YOUR SUPPORT TEAM

During the Beyi Ritual you will be supported by the 2015 elder initiates (bokoras), under the guidance of  Elder Malidoma. They too received their spiritual names and will be there to assist you in the unearthing of your own.
