Ancestral Wisdom
As darkness overtakes us from the east, we kindle a fire. Our fire doesn't banish the dark; it preserves the light. Around it we gather. We hold one another in respect. This is how we overcome the darkness: one circle of light, then another. And in time, the daylight returns.

Power of Threefold
Life, like an instrument, needs to be kept in tune. When we emit with care, we don’t just shape ourselves, we shape the resonance of the world around us.
And when it comes back threefold, it’s the environment reminding us how powerful every gesture truly is.

Why Ayni?
At this late stage of my life, I feel called to live in reciprocity:
to seed harmony where discord has reigned.
My hope is simple:
that my friends, near and far,
might feel a resonance in their own lives.
Each circle becomes a muyu,
each gesture a seed of Ayllu Pacha—
a world community.

• The shamanic practices I’ve witnessed aren’t theatrical or symbolic
They’re methods of temporal alignment
All of it works to tune the mind, the body; the field of the self to a deeper current
A shaman doesn’t float through space...he listens across time
