Machupicchu history and the Vision of Ayahuasca

Inca Viracocha or Wiracocha, was the eighth king of Cusco, the one who built Machupicchu, Wachuma’s favorite ceremonial place and also for Andean worship ceremonies to their heavenly gods. He was a kind king, loved by his people, the highest splendor was reached during his reign. The decadence of Wiracocha government came in the face of the powerful invasion of the Chankas, commanded by a king called Uscovilca; having no alternative, he decided to leave the city of Cusco cowardly, fleeing with his son Urko to his refuge in Llaki Qawana (“The Sadness Gazer”). The cusquenos call it Kaqya Qawana. (“Where the Lightning is Seen”). Later it was called Machupicchu.

Kusi Yupanqui, one of the younger children of Wiracocha was a mystic believer, he followed the visionary advice of the sacred plant Ayahuasca, didn’t accept the humiliation of the Chankas. He confronts the invading army at a disadvantage with few resources and defeats them with a mysterious divine power in battle. Since then Kusi Yupanqui takes power, creates his army and the Royal Council of Wiracocha submits to him for his leadership. After the triumph, young Kusi Yupanqui humbly takes the spoils of war to his father, who despises him answering that his son Urko is the successor. Kusi Yupanqui does not accept that a cowardly brother should receive such loot. Very outraged by the response of his father, he returns to Cusco, claims the victory and power over Cusco, plans, organizes and rebuilds, improving the cities. They subdue all enemy tribes, unite them and get them recognizing him as a legitimate king for his leading skills.

Admired by the power obtained by his despised son, after seeing the great transformation of the city of Cusco, Wiracocha named his son as PACHAKUTEQ (“The Transformer of the World”). Kusi Yupanqui was crowned and from that moment he became the only king, adopting the name that his father had given him: PACHAKUTEQ, known like the Son of the Sun. Pachacutec was a believer, leader in the Andean ceremonies who year after year offered worship to their heavenly gods, did the rituals of Wachuma and Ayahuasca for spiritual connection with their ancestors. All of these ceremonies were conducted in Machupicchu.

In 1900 a local farmer, Agustin Lizárraga, also a resident of the area, had knowledge of the ancient sacred ruins. He did not want the world to know about the discovery for ten years, his fear of looting or to be punished by unveiling a secret of the Inca Empire. In 1911, the American explorer Hiram Bingham, a professor at Yale University, was informed by Lizárraga of the existence of the lost Inca city called Machupicchu and was guided to the place. His surprise was immense, in the same year he was awarded the discovery and proudly informed his headquarters. He appropriated a large amount of the treasures he found (more than 5000 pieces), which he then brought to the United States. The Peruvian authorities continue demanding the return of the valuable historical heritage but to this day there is no result. Our Association of Shamans conducts Wachuma ceremonies the way there were done back in Inca times.
