It was introduced to the Western world by Alberto Aguas who was initiated into this method of energy healing by the Guarani Indians. The Guarani, who live in the heart of the Amazon jungle, comprise one of the oldest-living cultures in existence. Aguas was a well-known Brazilian healer who studied with the Guarani and then dedicated his life to sharing the Ama Deus method of healing.
The Guarani have been using this healing method for thousands of years. To achieve healing, the Guarani apply knowledge of working with energy, knowing that the power comes from a single greater Force. Their word for God and Love are interchangeable. It is Love that is the Power, and they are the ‘channels’ or the transmitters of this healing energy.
