Initiation is expected to go through several stages and have a certain content. Banzie believe there is six initiation stages. First stage called testing stage is a period of probing the night before the day of initiation with a small amount of eboga to see if the candidate is acceptable to Bwiti and to eboga. Second stage called ingesting stage is a period from morning into the afternoon of quiet ingestion of substantial amounts of eboga (up to a hundred grams). Third stage called purifying stage is bath and purification. In forth stage called stupefaction the candidate is returned to the chapel and continues to eat eboga amidst the activity of the engosie. At that stage the candidate will fall over in a state of "eboga death". At fifth stage called excursion, the candidate is taken to a special chamber in the chapel in order to conclude in peace the visionary experience and to recover. No more eboga is given. The final, sixth stage called reintegration is recounting of the experience.
