The manifestation

The Manifestation:
Iguassu Falls or
Y-Guassu


“Every river brings a message of prosperity; every waterfall brings abundance, permanent renewal, as long as the spirit follows the river, in its example and its message from an irradiating source”

– Kaka Werá Jecupé, Guarani Shaman


The source of the Creative Mist is a powerful seconday or auxiliary chacra of the Earth. At the Source of the Creative Mist, the waters, the forest, the wind, thunder, the rocks, lightnings, all the green encircling it and YOU, all represent different forms of energies or fields of awareness or consciuousness that interelate, interact and contribute to the richness and beauty of the cosmic dance that we use to call Life.

When we say that the Source of the Creative Mist is an auxiliary or even a secondary chakra we are free from the load of prejudice attatched to the word secondary as being “second place” or second class to something else. A secondary Chaka does not mean a second- class chakra. In the vision that makes room for the existence or the concept of chakras, the secondary chakras or power places are connected to the main chakras and may even be responsible for thousands of other connection points somehow related to them. Each chakra in the human body is connected to one of our seven subtle bodies and these subtle bodies are conected to different dimensions, to planets, the universe and the cosmos.

In this manner the Chakra of the Earth called Y-Guassu – is connected to all main and secondary chakras of the Planet and to the Earth Power Grid and to the Cosmos – since the Earth is not an isolated Planet. The Earth belongs to a family of Planets that belong to a solar system and that is part of a galaxy and so forever on. And thus in this ever expanding universe it keeps being part of families of galaxies as far as our minds can perceive.

Thus we are enegetically connected to Lake Titikaca, to Machu Picchu, to the Pantanal, to the Mouth of the Amazon River, to the Brazilian Central Plateau, to the Pampas, the Pune, Yungas and Sacred Páramos, to the awe-inspiring ring of volcanoes – hundreds of them dotting the Sacred Andean Cordilleras (Mountain Chain) from Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Colombia, Central America, the Caribbean, into the United States, Canada, Alaska and the Pacific Rim countries, thus embracing the world. Everything in this huge planetary fire ring is conected. What we call Iguassu Falls is a result of this planetary fire activity.

In this manner we can start sharing the vision of the Source of the Creative Mist as part of a big totality and not just as physical or geographical accident that serves only tyhe practical purpose of separating or making the border of two South American countries. This is not a fatherless Y-Guassu. A motherless Y-Guassu. A Y-Guassu with no brothers or sisters. It is a Y-Guassu with plenty of relatives, sisters and brothers with whom the Source of Creative Mist communicates, affects and is affected by. Thus, the seekers of Peace and Power – both spiritual and personal – that today flock to Mount Shasta, to Uluro Kattjuta, to Glastonbury or Lake Titikaca may be sure that the Secrete and Sacred Y-Guassu is part of this whole family. As Uluro and Kattjuta is a source of Tjukurpa and dreamtime songlines, Y-Guassu is the source of the Creative Mist, love, healing and the hymn.

One of the main problems for Y-Guassu nowadays is that this Source of Creative Mist has not yet been recognized and honored as a Sacred Place by the citizens of the three countries that meet in this beautiful area of the world. Local communities have not been motivated to honor, revalidate and declare It as a Sacred Site of Peace and Power. Then how can the area expect that the rest of the world will learn of its sacredness? The reason for the non-revalidation of the Source of
the Creative Mist as a Sacred Place is the the veil of Maya, the Goddess of illusory energies that has kept us terribly busy during our short European history of the region. The daily concerns, survival struggles, the building of family wealth has covered the eyes of most of the dwellers of the land so as not to allow them to see the thick, powerful veil of illusion.

The citizens of the countries surrounding the Source have been dangerously illusioned and misguided. To most people the Source of the Creative Mist is simply a tourist attraction. Something beautiful to attract or trap tourists in the same well that sugary surfaces attract bees. The Y-Guassu that really is has been forgotten or never noticed. It is not lived. It is seen through borrowed eyes. All the sacredness that is Hers by right has been expelled, deported, banned. In the lieu of its sacredness comes artificiality. European-styled artificiallity. Thanks to the violent history of colonization, the Guaranis, the avá (people) that turned the Falls into a Sacred Place after millenia of visualizations, invocation, praise and love were expelled from the Land.

Even the so called “Legend of the Falls” that is usually told to tourists, on the Brazilian side of the Y-Guassu, has assured that the fact that the Falls were Guarani Territory before the conquest, is nearly forgotten. In the legend the Indian girl called Naipi and the brave Indian hero named Tarobá were Kaingangs and not Guarani. The legend says that the Kaingangs used to live around te Falls – something that the Kaingang Indians do not “remember” since it is not part of their collective “remembrance”. The Kaingang themselves say that they have always lived on the Korang-ban-re Fields or on the fields of the Guarapuava Plateau. But it is hard to find a perfect crime. The white-man-developed story makes a serious mistake in the effort of , consciously or not, wiping out the traces of the Guarani ancestral memoir at the Iguassu Falls area. The names of the supposedly Kaingang heroes are of Guarani origin, and the serpent-deity called Mbói is also an important Guarani word. Why would the Kaingang people give a Guarani name to a deity of theirs?

The very same story adapted to the touristy consumption on the Argentine side of the Y-Guassu says that the heroic couple was Guarani. Another important question that comes to my mind now is, how is it possible that dwellers of the Y-Guassu Falls and surrounding areas were Kaingangs on this side and Guaranis across the river. The only thing I can say is that the Maya-caused illusion, and Maya is the Goddess of the Illusory Energies, does not allow modern Brazilians and Argentines to see things in an age-old perspective. They are trying to see long gone millenia through the tinted glasses used in the less than 100 years period. If the Iguassu River today separates Brazilians and Argentineans then it must have, forever and through the eons separated something else, somebody or some people. Then the need for a Kaingang-Guarani border at the Falls is necessary.
