ABOUT THE collection 

This series of poems was received one night in deep meditation. They were written directly as they were received from Spirit. They are messages intended to alleviate suffering, illusions of the consciousness and inspire gratitude for life. It is recommended before reading to find a peaceful place, ground yourself and meditate on the mystery of creation, nature and the self.

what is a chasqui? 

Chasquis (also Chaskis) were messengers of the Inka Empire. They were in charge of carrying messages and gifts for thousands of miles through a vast relay system. Chasquis were also trained to read and translate khipus (textile knots) to each other and higher authorities, and to help keep track of people in the empire.z
