Meet the Guides
Shamans: Yaku & Kuntur
“...buscamos el camino que nos lleve a las estrellas”
Yaku Amaru (Water Serpent) and Nina Kuntur (Fire Condor) are life partners, both Qheswa natives from Pisac - Sacred Valley of the Inkas (Cusco - Peru), heirs of ancestral Andean wisdom, wisdom of a culture with more than 5000 years old and highly admired for its achievement in the construction and development of precise and efficient tools that lead to a deep knowledge of our (holistic) being, and its harmonious integration with everything that surrounds it.. a natural communion to the cosmic laws and forces that govern life, & coexist in an interdependent, conscious, respectful and loving interaction.. a fine, beautiful and delicate balance with the whole.
Yaku and Kuntur are guardians, carriers and transmitters of this ancient legacy that is a sacred treasure of love. They live in love with their ancestral culture, they admire and celebrate it through the recovery, protection, strengthening and dissemination of its expressions, values and principles. Thus, since 1990 they have promoted various cultural - social programs with which they managed to recover, reactivate and keep their culture alive, especially their worldview (cosmovison), music, ancestral celebrations. They are founders and members of the Wiñay Taki de Pisac cultural center, also from the P'isaqa community. In 2010 (together with 4 other families) they founded a Kusi Kawsay Andean educational school for children and youth of indigenous origin and low economic resources. In this institution both structured the cultural-spiritual part and taught it to the students for more than 10 years, benefiting many families in the recovery and strengthening of their cultural identity, self-esteem, dignity, values.
Yaku is also a teacher of the ancestral language Runasimi (Quechua), she cultivates traditional songs, practices biomagnetism as therapy, Andean ceremonial massage, etc. Kuntur is also a builder of native musical instruments, a musician, composer, singer- songwriter and also a teacher and researcher of traditional-ancestral Andean music.
As a Sacred Mission, they two share "sowing" this millennial wisdom-medicine as a work of spiritual-transformational service. At the same time that they are weaving with other women and men who carry different contemporary knowledge and from other ancestral cultures of our beautiful planet, thus creating a precious and powerful bridge of interculturality that leads to the "flowering" of our personal-cosmic power... a new human being... complete, loving, conscious, balanced and just that leads to a better world.
Our offerings
WACHUMA
When human beings, despite many attempts, are still unable to "find" what they are looking for and need, then the sacred grandparents master (plants) will be able to help us.
The Wachuma is a columnar cactus from South America, a very sacred master plant and with a long tradition in Andean ancestral medicine (7000 thousand years according to traces).
In this collective ceremony we will have the great opportunity to reactivate our cosmic memory and thus reconnect with our Great Family: plants, animals, stones, ancestors, spirits of nature, divinities of the universe... Reconnect with the depths of our being, a reconciliation with our energies, shadows and lights, activate and/or strengthen our personal power to reintegrate it into our being, into our life and thus become aware, regenerate, heal and fully enjoy ourselves and of the Life, in love with Love.
This ceremonial encounter with the grandfather Wachuma will take place mainly in a traditional (ancestral) Andean framework, facilitated and woven with the unique forms of Yaku and Kuntur, and also open to sudden spontaneity that may arise in the moment.
TAKIYNIYKU
(Our music)
Artistic-cultural-educational concert of traditional Andean indigenous music and singing, including
sounds of pre-Columbian instruments.
Yaku and Kuntur will show us the most authentic of their cultural expressions, covering many musical instruments, musical genres and instrumental formations from the Andean world, songs in Runasimi, Aymara (ancestral languages). In this way they will transport us to very ancient times and to the current native communities that with these musics continue developing celebrations of the ancestral Andean calendar.
While they enchanting us with this rich cultural heritage, will explain the origins, history, genres, meanings and more of this music and instruments.
WILLKA JEWELRY
(ceremonial - medicinal sound)
Ritual sound offering, where we will use sound as a meditation and healing therapy, combining
various pre-Columbian and current native instruments to produce an environment of transcendent, precise and effective frequencies to raise our level of consciousness and achieve healthy well-being in our personal development.
Guided through the power of sound, we will travel through the vast and beautiful Andean-Amazonian ancestral world and its sound-spiritual relationship with nature and the universe, in this way we will wake up and call the Apus (spirits of the mountains, rivers , lagoons, etc.) asking for their presence and blessing, so then this journey will automatically lead us to explore, flow, thank and connect with the depths of our inner being and with everything around us.
This fabric and bath of sounds and healing songs will also allow us to perceive the high and deep level of knowledge of the power of sound that our ancestors had and from the depths of their hearts and from immemorial times they applied for the harmonization of our emotional - psychological – spiritual - physical body, and its integration with nature and the cosmos.
SAMINCHA
(Blessing)
Andean ancestral ceremony of incorporation and integration of our being and space to the natural
energies, to the physical laws and cosmic forces that govern life.
With the purifying love of the Yakumama (Mother Water), the sacred smoke of the Waman Sayri (Tobacco), the presence of the messenger of worlds Apuchin Kuntur (Spirit of the Condor), and the Willka taki or sacred songs, the Cleaning and Purification of our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being, while invoking the spirits and divinities to enter our space and offer us their blessing, dignity, omen of good fortune.... And thus accompany and always be accompanied by all our Great Family (Pachamama), in an interaction of true love, respect and freedom.
In the process of this ritual, with the Kukamama (Mother Coca) personal reconciliation is achieved to be leveled to a harmonious space, in the ordered Coca leaves we place all our intentions for our Great Family: Ask permission, greet them, thank them, show them our respect, our love and ask them for their love, their protection, their wisdom to live together harmoniously.
Educator, Organizer, Facilitator: Risha Buket Polat
My inquiry on this magical existence, which has been going on since I knew myself, started to become more systematic with Yoga, which I met at the age of 19. I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training with Meghan Currie in 2015, and over the following years I have been expanding my practice with various instructors and lineages from all over the world. I am graduated from Yoga Based Life Coaching and "Spiritual Sexual Shamanic Experience" trainings from the International School of Temple Arts.
I met Ayahuasca, Wachuma and other psyche-awakening plants in Peru in 2017. This acquaintance has brought me a variety of new roles. I got the call to channel between Peru and Mesopotamia twice, first by Madre Ayawaska, second by a delegation of 13 grandmothers. Responding to these calls, I organized two retreats in Peru, then in Bali, Turkey and Austria, as part of the Noor Tribe, which I founded the same year.
I continue my work via private guidance sessions, workshops, trainings and retreats facilitating one's journey to their inner wisdom.
My one-on-one sessions and group work are based on scientific research, blended experiences from around the world, and Shamanic tribal wisdom. My endless desire to explore continues to lead me to countless books, trainings, retreats, seminars and experiences.
My main intention in all spaces I am holding is to provide a ground of love and trust. On this ground we connect to our essence and discover our authentic truths. It is the field where we can discover all the answers we seek.
