Taxo is a celebrated spiritual elder, shaman, and healer of the
pre-Inca Atik (Kichwa) people from the Andes Mountains of Ecuador.
He has been sharing ancient Andean shamanic wisdom and practices in
the United States for more than 20 years--his personal quest to
fulfill the Andean prophecy that the Eagle and the Condor will fly
together in the same sky in harmony. Written with don Alberto's
permission and as further fulfillment of the Eagle-Condor prophecy,
this book shares don Alberto's teachings and his simple approaches
for building a reciprocal relationship with nature, centered on
Sumak Kausay, the way of joy and abundance. As a yachak, a shaman
of the elements, don Alberto shows how to relate to and receive
help from nature. When we are connected with nature on an emotional
and spiritual level it creates joy that is deeply healing and can
be accessed during life's difficulties. The book discusses
traditional Ecuadorian shamanic beliefs and practices, including
Andean Inca cosmology; how to connect with plants, animals, air,
fire, and water in sacred springs, the ocean, or your shower; and
Inca concepts like Pacha, the space-time era in which we live that
is now transitioning to a new one of connection and love after 500
years. The book explores don Alberto's upbringing in a family of
yachaks, his initiation, and his assumption of the role of shaman
for his community. It also includes reflections and essays from don
Alberto's students and others who have worked with him, including
shamanic teachers Itzhak Beery and John Perkins, showing how he
influenced their lives and awakened them to the path of Sumak
Kausay, Abundant Life.
