Complementing in this way also the spirit of the prophecy of unity of
Condor and the Eagle; why the Inuit people of Alaska; Many moons have already been delivered

Assuming this assignment, the Ushuaia coordination of Days of Peace and Dignity,
calls for a first meeting with the Yagan Paykoala Community (men from the beach)
canoe town originating from the southern coasts of the large island of Tierra del Fuego.
Those who suggest will consult a major; knowledgeable about local geography; through its
walk in search of traces of the native peoples of the area, who
He generously offers his knowledge of the area’s forest.

“The lenga generates its soil, its form depends on the environment. In the forest the renovales
they look for the sun, and for the renoval to grow there must be a great one protecting it.
When a large tree falls; self-thinning occurs that allows the growth of
the new generations. The bark of the trunk when young has lines
horizontal, and at maturity vertical lines are made; it’s thick. The size of the
trees do not have to do with age but with their possibilities of growth; in the
search for the sun that its branches make. ”

Thus, the invitation to meet a lenga tree located near the city arises
of Ushuaia in the Rio Chico Valley; that could witness the ancestral memory of
these lands in approximately 500 years of life. We started the road then
suggested, to meet the spirit of the forest that had called us. We arrived to
his presence at the foot of the Sphinx hill having traveled a path guarded by
several hills and following the course of the river that leads to the Cascada de los amigos.

A few meters away from this greater spirit, we received hundreds of butterflies
little; white that fluttered with a subtle beauty, placed on the ground. In
We thank the guardians of the territory for the guidance for this meeting and
we present our purpose in the vision of the grandparents and grandmothers of the family of

children and also the young chasky of the Kaweskar family of Punta Arenas Chile.

The ceremony began; calling to the ancestral memory of the millennial fire of these
southern lands; present on its shores and carried by the Yagan people in their canoes.
The women accompanied the children who supported their little hands on the tree;
thanking and initiating the request for permission, the word was woven into an offering; what
there were also the songs to the guardians. And a young Chasky from this land, was
high, the one in charge of completing this task and with the softness of the love that springs up;
the offering was given to the spirit of the forest; to become
carrier of the vision of the eagle.

It was at the previous moment that a herd of seven horses was present with force
and beauty going through the nearby low area, entering the forest; Your presence
It was like a lightning bolt that trotted by.
The time to awaken the spirit of the grandmother Anka was made in front of the altar of grandfather

ABYA YALA – JORNADAS DE PAZ Y DIGNIDAD
Levantamiento del Espíritu del Águila
La solicitud de preparación del bastón del águila ANKA, fue encargada por la familia de
la Anáhuac, a fines de febrero de 2018, al Consejo Coordinador de la Ruta del Sur. Su
levantamiento se realizaría en Ushuaia Tierra del Fuego; donde inicia la ruta del cóndor
KUNKUR en cada ceremonia continental, desde el año 2000.

Complementándose también de esta forma el espíritu de la profecía de unidad del
Cóndor y el Águila; por la que el pueblo Inuit de Alaska; hace ya muchas lunas entrego
el bastón del cóndor al Tawantinsuyu.

Asumiendo este encargo, la coordinación Ushuaia de Jornadas de Paz y Dignidad,
convoca a una primera reunión con la Comunidad Yagan Paykoala (hombres de la playa)
pueblo canoero originario de las costas australes de la isla grande de Tierra del Fuego.
Quienes sugieren se consulte a un mayor; conocedor de la geografía local; a través de su
caminar en la búsqueda de huellas de los pueblos nativos de la zona, quien
generosamente ofrece su conocimiento del bosque de la zona.

“La lenga genera su suelo, su forma depende del ambiente. En el bosque los renovales
buscan el sol, y para que el renoval crezca tiene que haber uno grande protegiéndolo.
Cuando cae un árbol grande; se produce un auto raleo que permite el crecimiento de
las nuevas generaciones. La corteza del tronco cuando es joven tiene líneas
horizontales, y en la madurez se hacen líneas verticales; es gruesa. El tamaño de los
arboles no tienen que ver con la edad sino con sus posibilidades de crecimiento; en la
búsqueda del sol que hacen sus ramas.”

Así, surge la invitación a conocer un árbol de lenga ubicado en cercanías de la ciudad
de Ushuaia en el Valle del Rio Chico; que podría testimoniar la memoria ancestral de
estas tierras en aproximadamente 500 años de vida. Emprendimos entonces el camino
sugerido, al encuentro del espíritu mayor del bosque que nos había llamado. Llegamos a
su presencia al pie del cerro Esfinge habiendo transitado un sendero custodiado por
varios cerros y siguiendo el curso del rio que conduce a la Cascada de los amigos.

A pocos metros de este espíritu mayor, nos recibieron centenares de mariposas
pequeñas; blancas que aleteaban con una sutil belleza, apostadas sobre el suelo. En
silencio agradecimos a los guardianes del territorio por la guía para este encuentro y
presentamos nuestro propósito en la visión de los abuelos y abuelas de la familia de
Jornadas de Paz y Dignidad desde 1992. Abrazamos en nombre de la familia humana a
todo el bosque en este abuelo, que nos había convocado a través de otro mayor;
caminante del territorio.

Llegamos al momento de la ceremonia en la que se pediría la ofrenda de uno de sus
brazos a este abuelo. Acompañados de familia local de Jornadas, Comunidad Yagan
Paykoala, familia Guaytamari de Mendoza, agradeciendo la presencia numerosa de
niños y también del joven chasky de la familia Kaweskar de Punta Arenas Chile.

Se inicio la ceremonia; llamando a la memoria ancestral del fuego milenario de estas
tierras australes; presente en sus costas y llevado por el pueblo Yagan en sus canoas.
Las mujeres acompañamos a los niños que apoyaron sus manitos en el árbol;
agradeciendo e iniciando el pedido de permiso, se tejió la palabra en ofrenda; que
también fueron los cantos a los guardianes. Y un joven chasky de esta tierra, fue en lo
alto, el encargado de cumplimentar esta tarea y con la suavidad del amor que brota;
fue entregada la ofrenda pedida al espíritu del bosque; para transformarse en
portadora de la visión del águila.

Fue en el momento previo que una tropilla de siete caballos se hizo presente con fuerza
y belleza pasando por la zona baja cercana, adentrándose en el bosque; su presencia
fue como un rayo veloz que pasó trotando.
El tiempo de despertar el espíritu de la abuela Anka se realizo frente al altar del abuelo
cóndor en las manos de hijos e hijas de esta profecía de unidad del cóndor y el águila,
que nos fuera legada por nuestros mayores. Hasta el momento en que fue presentada
frente al fuego en el Centro ceremonial de Jornadas de Paz y Dignidad en la luna llena
de mayo.

Agradeciendo cada entendimiento que esta abuela ha despertado en este territorio; con
fuerza y belleza, honrada esta familia del sur de Abya Yala de haber levantado este
espíritu, en nombre del Tawantinsuyu, con la guía de los guardianes de esta región.
En el espíritu de Jornadas de Paz y Dignidad, compartimos este testimonio con la
familia desde nuestro humilde entendimiento y gratitud a este tejido de vida que nos
despierta en conciencia y belleza. Como lo fue la presencia de los niños; semillas de las
abuelas y abuelos.

11 July 2018
ESTEEMED BROTHERS AND SISTERS FROM THE PEACE AND DIGNTIY JOURNEYS AND ALL
THE ANCESTRAL PUEBLOS of Abya Yala:
We send you a strong energy embrace from Tawantinsuyo! We brought back the regenerated Eagle Staff after a strong and long ceremonial process. The Eagle staff was passed to Abuelo Salvador Reza until we are able to meet with the different northern regions to coordinate planning for the next journey in 2020.
Attached you will find a letter from our brothers of Tawantinsuyo that will explain the process in more detail.
The following is to request your presence to accompany the Eagle staff and other brothers and sisters to transmit the prayers from the Eagle staff at the “Little Big Medicine” Sundance in Wheatfields, Arizona from July 21 to 28, 2018.
After the ceremony in Quito where the Taytas and Maymas presented the Staff before the fire, we will take the New Eagle Staff to the “Little Big Medicine Sun Dance” and ask Chief Danny John to help us transmit the prayers from the Eagle Staff that guided us 7 times from 1992 to 2016 to the new staff. The “Little Big Medicine” Sun Dance was the place where the original Eagle Staff was rested after observing fissures and deterioration on the Staff in 2017. The teachings of the elders say that running with an injured staff can also injure us.
We invite the different Peace and Dignity representatives to participate as possible, not only for the upcoming ceremony, but to plan ceremonies in their respective regions with the New Eagle Staff and other Peace and Dignity staffs to prepare for 2020. In a very special manner we urge you to include the different original nations to be an integral part of this preparation to have the maximum participation and guidance in great part by the original nations themselves for 2020.
Thank you for supporting this prayer.
In Peace and Dignity,
