The Andean Cosmovision is a way of perceiving and interacting with reality that has its roots in the traditional, indigenous culture of the high Andes. It is fundamentally different than the Western worldview. This Cosmovision is not a set of concepts or beliefs. It cannot be described or encompassed by words. It can, however, be experienced and it can be explored. This is a guidebook for exploring the Andean Cosmovision. The Cosmovision provides a path for discovering profound aspects of ourselves and the Cosmos. It is a path with a heart. It nourishes a more loving and mutually supportive relationship between ourselves and nature and the Cosmos. In addition to being personally significant, this relationship may be exactly what our species needs to start heading toward a future of greater beauty and greater health for the planet. For this path you don't need a guru. You need the Pachamama (the great being who is the mother earth); you need the Apus (the great beings who are the majestic mountain peaks); you need the stars, the wind, the trees, the rivers, the sun. This book will open the door to new territory and give you a map and some advice. It will then be up to you to determine whether what you find touches you deeply.

Though currently only partially understood, evolving interactions among Latin American communities of faith, governments, and civil societies are a key feature of the popular mobilizations and policy debates about environmental issues in the region. This edited collection describes and analyses multiple types of religious engagement with environmental concerns and conflicts seen in modern Latin American democracies. This volume contributes to scholarship on the intersections of religion with environmental conflict in a number of ways. Firstly, it provides comparative analysis of the manner in which diverse religious actors are currently participating in transnational, national, and local advocacy in places such as, Peru, Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, Ecuador, Guatemala, and Mexico. It also considers the diversity of an often plural religious engagement with advocacy, including Catholic, Evangelical and Pentecostal perspectives alongside the effects of indigenous cosmological ideas. Finally, this book explores the specific religious sources of seemingly unlikely new alliances and novel articulations of rights, social justice, and ethics for the environmental concerns of Latin America. The relationship between religion and environmental issues is an increasingly important topic in the conversations around ecology and climate change. This book is, therefore, a pertinent and topical work for any academic working in Religious Studies, Environmental Studies, and Latin American Studies.

The product of more than fifteen years contact and life with the Mescalero people in southern New Mexico, "Living Lifes Circle" is one of the first works devoted to the emergent new interdiscipline of ethnoastronomy, the study of how the sky and its movements form templates for life in particular cultures. Urged by her friend and mentor, the remarkable singer and medicine man Bernard Second, to Pay attention, Farrer began to recognize a powerful primary metaphor based on acute astronomical observation and its direct relevance to all aspects of Mescalero life. Should be read by every student of culture.M. Jane Young

Modern life may offer certain benefits for humanity, but it can also create a barrier between humans and the natural world. In contrast, the millenarian Aymara culture of the Bolivian Andes exhibits a harmonic interrelation with nature, ecology, and the cosmos, and it also represents a living system of indigenous knowledge and knowledge production/transformation. The Aymara system of knowing and knowledge production, like other indigenous systems, should not be mistaken for antiquated elements of culture and folklore but should be seen as a distinct and dynamic epistemology. The Aymara cosmovisión is similar to the philosophy of ecology, sharing some general descriptions of interactions in the natural world and the cosmos. However, the two perspectives differ when they are analyzed in their proper systems of knowledge production. In this analysis, the epistemological difference between how ecology and the cosmovisión relate to the natural world is seen as a gap in the two distinct traditions of knowledge production. By first describing characteristics of the Aymara cosmovisión as envisioned by several ritual and spiritual masters (amawt'as), other involved Aymara people, and several Aymara academics, these findings are then analyzed in their relationship to ecology and the natural world. This analysis included many distinct voices, illustrating the non-dogmatic nature of the cosmovisión. Ultimately, each interviewee spoke towards the aspect of the cosmovisión which he/she is most interested in without being bound to a certain doctrine or creed by an authoritative body. Most of the ritual and spiritual specialists generally focus on interacting with the beings of the natural world through diverse ritual conversations. Other spiritual specialists focus on the study and interpretation of a cosmic order and code. Aymara academics are more interested in describing issues surrounding Andean culture and its interaction with the modern Bolivian society, especially in terms of decolonization. The different perspectives of the interviewees yield a data set that is descriptive of the Andean cosmovisión in general, and that offers insight into comparisons with occidental notions of nature and culture.

Las doce escritoras de esta Antología son apasionadas lectoras y escritoras que creen en un mundo mejor y en el valor de la palabra. Ellas comparten su cosmovisión, su modo particular de mirar el mundo, a través de la creación de historias, reflexiones y poemas. Así, en su empeño por seducir con las narraciones y los versos, logran en cada texto una delicada costura de palabras, un entramado sutil que penetra en la condición humana y muestra, además, creatividad en la trama, con mirada escudriñadora de las diferentes realidades contemporáneas... De este modo, las historias ponen en escena temas muy variados, personajes reales o imaginados que tiran del hilo de la memoria para evocar espacios de la infancia y de la adultez, los inmigrantes, el amor, la amistad, encuentros, desencuentros, sueños, esperanzas e ilusiones rotas, ocultamientos, traiciones, abrazos y despedidas, colecciones, nuevos comienzos, el dejarlo todo, decisiones difíciles (¿hay decisiones fáciles?), la soledad, la corrupción, la incertidumbres, la bondad y la generosidad, la nostalgia y la tecnología. Narraciones que se animan con lo absurdo, con el humor, con lo romántico, con la nostalgia, que tienen mucho de realismo, algo de ciencia ficción y siempre el fuego de la vida que pugna por defender lo mejor del ser humano. Las autoras tienen algo para contar y urgencia por hacerlo. Y cuentan y poetizan con lenguaje sugerente, con descripciones ricas en imágenes sensoriales, con saltos temporales, con recreaciones de cuentos y microrrelatos, con diálogos que permiten oír a personajes que se nos hacen presencias reales. Y siempre la metáfora, lo sugerente, para que el lector ahonde los intersticios. Realismo, humor, ciencia ficción, romanticismo, absurdo, sensaciones impregnadas por las presencias del ayer y del hoy que han dado una cosmovisión para estar en el mundo. Y eternizar sus historias a través de la escritura.

The Inkas (Quechua spelling) worshipped the Sun, and their emperor was thought to be the son of the Sun. They conquered most of the Andes and their former empire is replete with examples of their astronomy. They used solar positions on the horizon for calendrical purposes and managed their crops and religious festivals in this manner. Many examples remain of their intentional light and shadow effects that demonstrate their sophisticated understanding of the Sun’s movement and of solar horizon events. Evidence of their astronomy can only be fully understood in its cultural context, and that is the focus of this book. Inka Cosmovision explores the cosmic worldview of the Inkas from the perspective of oral traditions passed from one generation to the next among the Inkas’ living descendants. You will learn about Inka astronomy in a way that you perhaps have never encountered. An author of the book is Quechua, a descendant of the Inkas, and what you will read benefits greatly not only from the field research of both authors, but from the many stories he learned from his parents and grandparents and from his Amauta, a highly respected Indigenous teacher of Inka culture. This book enlightens about Inka cosmovision as no other has before.

Highly regarded scholar Davíd Carrasco provides an overview of the history of Mesoamerican cultures and vivily describes their religious forms, structures, myths, and prevailing 'cosmovision'--the Mesoamerican view of time and space and its ritualized representation and enactment. Carrasco details the dynamics of two important, representative cultures--the Aztec and the Maya --and discusses the impact of the Spanish conquest and the continuity of native traditions into the post-Columbian and contemporary eras. Integrating recent archaeological discoveries in Mexico City, he brings about a comprehensive understanding of ritual human sacrifice, a subject often ignored in religious studies."--Back cover.
