Pablo Amaringo Vault Pablo César Amaringo Shuna was born in Puerto Libertad in the Peruvian Amazon. He was ten years old when he first took ayahuasca. Raised in extreme poverty, for a short time Pablo hand-painted counterfeit banknotes, ultimately spending ten months in jails and a Pucallpa prison for his crime. In 1977, responding to a magical conflict he'd been having with a sorcerer, Pablo abandoned his vocation as a shaman. Pablo occasionally spoke about his life as a shaman and artist, and provided art instruction, at seminars and conferences outside of Peru. Before he passed away, Pablo was working on paintings of angels, as well as paintings that documented the flora and fauna of the Amazon.
