Temple Kaneh Bosem membership card states that a member in good standing “is qualified to carry, possess (in amounts appropriate for individual consumption) and/or use Sacraments…” Those sacraments are identified, and cultivation guidelines specified on our Notice page for members and law enforcement personnel. The QR code on the back of your membership card directs them to the Notice page on the website.

The following is information every member of Temple Kaneh Bosem should be familiar with, as these limitations will keep you safe.

The purpose of sacred ceremonies is to get you connected with a recognized Temple Kaneh Bosem medicine person who can assist you in the process of healing and empowering your life and your health. They cannot do that if you are not with them in the sacred circle. We take very seriously the responsibility of assisting people and making sure each participant is physically, emotionally, and spiritually safe and that the sacred medicines are worked with in a safe way and honorable manner

​

When you work with sacred medicines under the guidance of a medicine person at home, this is called Personal Facilitation. Personal facilitation is creating a spiritual, ceremonial space for yourself ONLY, working with a small amount of sacrament/medicine that has been gifted or provided to you from a Temple Kaneh Bosem medicine person with whom you are working and under their direction and instruction.

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: If a Temple Kaneh Bosem medicine person gifts or provides you with sacred medicine to work with for Personal Facilitation and/or micro-dosing, there is specific paperwork that is required for this process. You must follow the protocol of the medicine person and documentation is required.

 

PERSONAL FACILITATION AMOUNTS

Cannabis – 2 ounces; regardless of delivery system (vape, edibles, tinctures, etc.), the total amount of THC cannot be more than 2 ounces.

Temple Kaneh Bosem Members are not allowed to sell, trade, or gift sacred plants and medicines listed as controlled substances by the United States government to anyone, regardless of Temple Kaneh Bosem membership. Sacrament and medicines are only made available through branches or medicine people who are authorized and recognized by the Temple Kaneh Bosem. This is important because we know where those medicines/sacraments came from, how they were prepared and that they are free of harmful or additional elements that we do not endorse or that may be dangerous to our members.

 

POLICY FOR CANNABIS SACRAMENT:

Many states in the United States have legalized cannabis for medical use, and several have made it completely legal for any purpose. In those states where cannabis is legal, you may follow the laws of your state. However, in states where there are still legal limitations, you must follow our sacrament limitations listed above.

​

NOTE: During harvest time, a member may have more than 2 oz in their possession, as they have likely grown enough medicine to last until the next harvest.

All medicine over 2 ounces must be put into sealed containers and labeled with the date of harvest and your name and Temple Kaneh Bosem membership number, and either stored in the freezer or a lockbox with an Temple Kaneh Bosem sticker on it. These stickers are available for purchase on the website.

It is vitally important that every member growing cannabis understands that this is sacred medicine and cannot be sold or gifted to anyone within or without Temple Kaneh Bosem. The personal cultivations are for personal sacramental and medicinal use only.

 

Please note: Simply becoming a member of Temple Kaneh Bosem does not make you a recognized Medicine Person, nor does it give you authorization to conduct your own ceremonies under Temple Kaneh Bosem. We are happy to help you get in touch with our recognized Temple Kaneh Bosem Medicine People that are able to conduct ceremonies under Temple Kaneh Bosem. If you would like to contact us directly, once a member, we can help you get in contact with those recognized branches in good standing at: Temple Kaneh Bosem If you are working with an Temple Kaneh Bosem medicine person, and they give you more than your personal limitation, you must obtain from them a written letter with the medicine person’s signature, branch, etc. stating that this medicine is given to you by a medicine person for healing purposes. Requirements and limitations are different for those who are designated as medicine people, branch leaders, or custodians, and have a membership card from Temple Kaneh Bosem stating their status. Those differences are designated only by Mother Church and not by the members. Our sacred medicine can be obtained over the internet, however, we strongly caution all members to avoid purchasing from third parties who have not been vetted by Temple Kaneh Bosem. This could cause legal and health problems for those working with those medicines.

Any questions regarding these policies should be directed to Temple Kaneh Bosem and we will be happy to assist you.
