July 2009 Program
Cuzco

DAY 0: Flights from home country to Lima.

DAY 1: NAPAYKUNAKUY. Greetings and welcome to Qosqo (Cuzco), the navel of the world. We arrive  early in the morning allowing time for brunch and acclimatization to the altitude change. Ricardo and Evaristo provide orientation in an introductory talk late in the afternoon, giving you the background and a  foundation for understanding this magical initiatory experience, followed by a welcome dinner and folklore show in one of the finest restaurants in Cuzco.

DAY 2: KARPAY AYNI. We begin with the Karpay Ayni Ceremony;  at the sacred geographic center of the Andean region, the central Cathedral of Cuzco. This ritual activates the INKA SEED deep inside us and begins the process of spiritual growth "Inka style." Then we travel to sacred sites in the Cuzco area, including Qoriqancha, Sacsaywaman, Qenqo, the Temple of the Moon and Tambomachay.

DAY 3: TARIPAY PACHA. We visit the most important Inka temple of the Cuzco city Qoricancha.  Then we will visit the fortress of Sacsaywaman, Qenqo, temple of the Moon and Tambomachay.

DAY 4: KAWSAY. We travel to the high lands of Cuzco to visit Chincheros, Salinas de Maras and the agricultural research center of Moray. The ritual at Moray take us on a journey through the seven levels of human conciousness.

DAY 5: THE APUS: We travel to the Sacred Valley of the Inkas through Amaru Cancha,  Pisaq ruinas, Pisaq Mercado.

DAY 6: WINAY. Ollantaytambo for the ritual of Winay: Germination. Here, the rituals allow us to feed our Inka seed with all the energies of the elements, sun, wind, earth, water, helping it to sprout and begin to grow.  We stay overnight in the Sacred Valley.

DAY 7: PHUTUY. We get up early for the breathtaking train ride to Machu Pijchu. After lunch in Aguas Calientes,  we perform a ritual to connect with the sacred river--Princess of Black Light (Willkanota river) then, we visit the hot springs for cleansing and relaxation, getting ready for the following day at the sanctuary of Machu Pijchu.

DAY 8: MACHU PIJCHU: We head to Machu PIJCHU to hike up the beautiful staircase of the Inkas to the top of Huayna Pijchu early in the morning. It looks impossible, but the ingenious Inkas have made it much easier than it looks. Here we ritually shed our feminine side and take on new, clean, fresh masculine energy from the surrounding Apus (sacred mountains), mobilizing our dynamic energy. The hike takes 2-3 hours going at a slow and easy pace. We return to the sanctuary of Machu Pijchu for a full tour, and later return to Aguas Calientes to take the train back to Cuzco.

DAY 9: TIPON and WIRAQOCHA TEMPLE: : In Tipon, we conduct the water rituals of the Unification and Purification ceremony with our elder brothers Q’eros. At Wiraqocha Temple, the most sacred of the Andean system, we perform the culminating Coronation Ritual of the Inkas, linking ourselves to the ancient lineages or "panakas" of the royal families of the Inkas. This is the most awe-inspiring of all rituals & the place where the second fifth-level priest will emerge and where the sixth level couple will glow with a bright light, like the Inkas of old according to the Inka Prophecy. After our crowning ritual, we celebrate with a farewell dinner and a folklore show in one of the finest restaurants in Cuzco.

DAY 10: HAKUCHIS: Breakfast, experience sharing, a farewell session that helps us say farewell to Cuzco and transition ourselves back to our own world with higher understanding. We ride back to the Cuzco Airport in the afternoon, depart from Cuzco to Lima and from Lima to our final destination.
