This unique apprenticeship with don Oscar Miro-Quesada is thoughtfully designed as an immersive, soul-nourishing journey into the Pachakuti Mesa TraditionTM. It offers a deep exploration of the tradition’s relational intelligence, ritual practice, and communal re-Membering in these transformative times of Pachakuti. In Quechua, “Pachakuti” means “world reversal,” naming the era of change we are living through now.

The mesa is an altar for self-exploration, transformation, and personal growth, where a new paradigm of relationship with the Self and the Universe can emerge. Rooted in the cosmologies of Peruvian shamanism, this living tradition unfolds through inner and outer practices that restore balance and harmony in our connections with All That Is. With vision and purpose, this intensive invites a beneficent shamanic exploration of Andean cosmovision, with emphasis on deepening gnosis of the cosmic evolutionary presence in our lives through the energetic powers known as Kamaqen, Pacha, Kawsay, Supay, Kallpa, and Qonteqsewiraqocha, including “the art of befriending entropy.”

The ceremonial setting is designed to guide participants into a direct, embodied encounter with four interwoven truths: that life is fundamentally relational; that the mesa is a living map of reciprocity; that discord and disequilibrium are not failures of the path, but initiatory thresholds within it; and that spiritual maturation in the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition is inseparable from ayllu-consciousness, community coherence, and reverent service to the more-than-human world.

This is not a weekend of passive instruction. It is a covenantal field of practice. Apprentices are invited to experience themselves not as isolated seekers gathering teachings, but as participants in a living web of reciprocity with Pachamama, the sacred directions, their own mesas, one another, and the ever-turning world and spirally churning multiverse itself. The atmosphere will be intimate, intelligently soul-honoring, and devotional, yet never theatrical; the Guardians of Ayni are unimpressed by spiritual posing.

Instead, participants will share an immersive, multidimensional apprenticeship in perception, humility, disciplined listening, and relational accountability. This PMT apprenticeship is ideally suited for people with a range of shamanic experience and ritual skill, including:

new or early-stage apprentices in the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition
experienced practitioners seeking to re-root in first principles
established regional community members preparing for deeper ceremonial responsibilities
sincere spiritual aspirants drawn to embodied, earth-honoring relational practice
