Given everything that’s said above, please treat the Inka’s Andean symbols of Tawantinsuyö with respect. These symbols direct and guide us toward Qhapaq Ñan, on the Path toward continuous evolution in all respects.
Andean is not only the person that was born in the mountain range of the Tawantinsuyö and carries the Inka genes, there are very many Andean of roots and heart around the world or Tëqsimuyö that love the Culture and Andean philosophy in its true dimension. There we are all together, guided towards the horizon, looking at the tenuous light of the dawn: Pachaillariy.

Finally, the Andean Cosmology does not exclude anyone, on the contrary unites and humanizes; it is an ancestral gift of the Peruvian Andes of Tawantinsuyö to the rest of the world.
