Canaris, Otavalos, Saraguros and Salasacas are ancient cultures who maintain this profound knowledge which they inherited from their yachacs, wisemen who found so many answers to the mysteries of the universe before their eyes.
Ancient dominant races used these virtues; along with the fear of punishment and the symbols of power, to create great empires over the ruins of the defeated cultures and their gods. Empires that emerged, inexorably, absorbed any social, economic and religious beliefs, with the thought that freedom and developement start only when a certain measure of dominion over what exists is achieved. Then the Pacha era will begin. The long awaited moment to walk down the paths of the ancestors; to rebuild the legends and the power of the mountains.
In a legendary prophecy of the Incas it is said, a time will come when the eagle and the condor will fly side by side in the silent sky. This will be the dawn of a new era, when humanity will awaken to a new consciousness and reach for higher horizons. In this awakening, looking into the silent sky, we will see the majestic condor flying side by side with the eagle; the symbol of progress. Moving swiftly toward the healing energy of a rainbow, the vivacious eagle; with it's piercing vision will invite the condor to follow him, till till they are out of sight.
Then the moment will arrive for a real coexistence between the power and wisdom of nature and its elements, with the reasonable use of technological progress, a coexistence to enhance human nature while fostering its identities and spiritual values.
