Bibliotekernes beskrivelse

Known as the "keepers of the ancient knowledge" the Q'ero Indians of Peru are the most respected mystics of the south-central Andes. In 1996 Joan Parisi Wilcox travelled to the Andes and was able to record the mysteries of the Kawsay Pacha, the multidimensional world of living energy, through more than 40 hours of intensive interviews with six Q'ero paqos, masters of the ancient spiritual traditions of Peru. The Q'ero are known for having preserved the Inca spiritual tradition more precisely than any other indigenous population of the Andes. The in-depth interviews presented in this book recount the direct words of these masters so readers can discover for themselves the mind and heart space of these people. Four new chapters of this revised edition focus on the work of the mesa, the Andean form of a spiritual medicine bundle, and it's use as a conduit for the healing energies of nature. The mesa is called the "heart's fire" because it represents the finest energy - the energy of compassion - that a paqo cultivates while walking the sacred path.
