The Munay Ki are energetic transmissions first introduced by the Q'ero, the last living inkan holy people. There are nine rites; the ninth was first transmitted only a couple of years ago. Receiving the rites was accompanied by a sweetness I hadn't known before, and working with the rites has been transformative. Essentially, the rites are transmitted to you in the form of seeds, which you feed with your intention so that they grow within you and become part of you. In years past I might have scoffed at this, but after working with energy and in sacred spaces, I know that the experience had that genuine element of truth--that feeling within your body, or even deeper than that, where you know on a cellular level. The Munay-Ki are the nine great rites of initiation of the medicine way. The word munay means "I love you" or "BE AS THOU ART." The Munay-Ki are the nine gates that heal us and transform our human energy field into that of homo luminous.
The prophecies of the ancient Americas speak about a new human appearing on the planet--one who lives free of fear and resides in his or her transcendent nature. The Munay-Ki are the codes for the new human. They are delivered in the form of energetic transmissions. The ninth rite, the "Creator Rite" was transmitted for the first time in the summer of 2006 at the Holy Mountains in the Andes. The nine initiations of the Munay-Ki have only been available until recently to the high wisdom keepers of the Americas.
(This excerpt is from the munay-ki.org site.) Some of my most profound meditations have been after receiving the munay-ki rites and working with the energies to let them find a home within me... to integrate those energies with my own luminous body. |

Over the years, I've been studying the energy medicine of the Americas--mostly the form still used by the shaman, currandero, and curandera of the high Andean mountains of Peru. The Q'ero--the descendants of the Inka--have been practicing their medicine ways almost undisturbed for millennia, and largely bypassed the destruction meted out to the rest of the indigenous population by the Spanish colonialists and conquistadors by simply living in isolation in the harsh environment at altitudes hovering around 16,000 feet.
They don't have a written language--they speak Quechua--and their tradition is an oral one, passed down from generations. It's also an experiential tradition; the lessons are ones that you learn by doing, not listening to a lecture.
I'm a paqo, a walker of this spiritual path. There is no apprenticeship, no trial period; one is or isn't a paqo.
On this path, one grows into one's powers by living in one's integrity, walking upright without deceit (even to oneself), fearless, and in a right, balanced relationship with the Earth and all of its creatures.
As my work deepens, I find myself shedding the layers of "stuff" that has accumulated during my life. For years I misunderstood this path of power. I never wished to have power over anything or anyone; and in this path I don't need to.
What it comes down to, I finally understand, is love. And that love is expressed through service.
I think it was Whitman who wrote: What's simple is true. |
