The present article contemplates aspects of a larger research about the educational processes that occurred inside an ayahuasqueira religion, Santo Daime. Santo Daime is understood by its patrons literally as a school. The goal here is to understand how these educational processes are seized and narrated by current and / or former patrons of this religion. Methodologically, it is a qualitative approach that, in addition to bibliographic research, used documentary research in some hymnals, as well as semi-structured interviews with seven subjects attending or attending Santo Daime in several churches of CEFLURIS located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. It is understood that adherents perceive Santo Daime as a functional equivalent of the school, whose organicity or functioning would be associated with a ritual work and a work of selftransformation based on self-knowledge. For these subjects, the rituals are constituted in certain knowledge considered essential by them.

Keywords : education; Santo Daime; educational processes.
