Arkan Lushwala, a Peruvian ceremonial teacher, spent a day with Pachamama Alliance staff to share his teachings and empower our work together.
His focus is reconnecting people back to the earth, the primal mother, and themselves, and channeling our individual and collective gifts into committed action. And his latest published piece is the book The Time of the Black Jaguar.
Arkan carries the teachings and prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor, and his land and center in New Mexico, Arawaka, are dedicated to this vision. Several Pachamama colleagues have studied with Arkan for many years, but the major outcome of our time together is Arkan's eager desire to "do his part" in taking a stand for the 5 million acres of land and life currently at stake in Ecuador's south central Amazon rainforest.
