Words From Williak
“Cosmovivencia is the daily practice of our culture, Pachamama is what always keeps us updated and in tune.
Daily living with Mother Nature and the elements is our school of life.
The spiritual supports who are the teachers are around us, but they manifest themselves according to the interest that each of us places in our spiritual development. And naturally as we walk the Kapak Ñan we meet human and non-human teachers who feed us energetically and spiritually with their experiences and presence.
Like everyone, we have superior beings that have marked us in life, in my case they are my Grandparents; Yachak Seer healer Rafael Santillán and Trancito Amaguaña. After their trip to the stars, continue with my Mother Achik Rosa, healer and midwife, my father Manuel Santillan, healer, herbalist and Andean physiotherapist. Later in my youth I met Naturists Jack Gasnsverg and Simone Thoma. who showed me the value and potential of my traditions to accompany mother earth and its inhabitants.
In this brightness of my life in 1999 is when Alberto Taxo a Hatun Tayta Yachak comes into my life and I walked with Him until his departure from this reality in 2022.
In my years of walking with Hatun Yachak Alberto Taxo introduced me to many wise men and women , among themTayta Yachak Julio Shuar from the Amazon who helped me understand the mysteries of Shamanism and delve deeper into the shamanic language to work with the sacred Ayawaska medicine.
Tayta Yachak Julio Shuar physically accompanied us until the year 2012. Before his departure, he asked me to continue this tradition of working with sacred healing plants to eradicate the disease from the city
With love and respect, honoring their light and yours, I am here to accompany you on this journey of healing and spiritual empowerment.
With love,
Willak.”
