Statement of Beliefs
Sincerity
We are a restoration of the ancient, sacred teachings and ways of the pre-colonial and pre-conquest ancient nomadic indigenous peoples which historically inhabited parts of Central, North and South America.
-
We Believe
Mother Earth is a living being. That Mother Earth is a unique, indivisible, self-regulating community of interrelated beings that sustains, contains and reproduces all beings.
-
We Believe
Every human being is responsible for respecting and living in harmony with Mother Earth and to promote and support practices of respect for Mother Earth and all beings, in accordance with their own cultures, traditions and customs.
-
We Believe
We believe in the Divine (Creator) and that the Creator made all men and women who have lived, and do now live and who will yet live, as free and equal beings. That we derive from and that we may become like the Native and Traditional Indigenous people who lived in this land anciently.
-
We Believe
That through our literal descendants, we claim the right to form an Indigenous Traditional Organization based upon their teachings and wisdoms which have been passed down to us through the traditions, customs, ceremonies, records that have been guarded though the ages by our descendants.
-
We Believe
And we acknowledge the sacred texts of all traditional religions and religious traditions regarding the principles of sacred expression and natural medicine.
-
We Believe
In the fundamental truth that, as children of the Divine (Creator), we are entitled to the freedoms of thought, religion, education, assembly, opinion, speech, movement, our sacred rights of worship, methods of healing, our traditional lifestyle and security within our historical territories, insofar as that freedom does not prevent others from likewise enjoying the same freedoms.
-
We Believe
That men and women have been endowed with intelligence enough to govern ourselves in such a manner as to guarantee to ourselves these freedoms, to establish just and right ways to deal with each other, to maintain a tranquil and secure domestic life, provide for defense of these rights when needed, and to insure for ourselves and our posterity the blessings that our culture, traditions and teachings bring.
-
We Believe
That life and death arises and returns to the same spiritual realm that is accessed by the sacramental experience of psilocybin mushrooms in life.
“There is a world beyond ours, a world that is far away, nearby, and invisible. And there is where God lives, where the dead live, the spirits and the saints, a world where everything has already happened and everything is known. That world talks. It has a language of its own. I report what it says. The sacred mushroom takes me by the hand and brings me to the world where everything is known.”
