Yes the idea of ayahuasca as an actual being is a central aspect of the experience. When you ingest aya you're taking in the the spirit itself, allowing it to be able to communicate with you, and then you journey to another realm together inhabited by other spirits. So perhaps it's best said that you're not on ayahuasca, but with ayahuasca.
Referring to two experienced shamans.."What they showed me over and over and over again is that even they do not know what ayahuasca is. Because you're never experiencing ayahuasca. You're always experiencing ayahuasca plus you, and that combination is not ayahuasca. That combination is you and ayahuasca. And that means ayahuasca then is undefinable, we don't know what it is, which then always allows us to continue to explore the unknown. And it becomes an unlimited journey for us to be able to continue to go further and further in our understanding." He's referring to the idea that imagination and pushing boundaries within the experience itself is central to the journey, always going into unknown territory.
