The Path of Wiraqocha

About the Book

The Path of Wiraqocha is the magical story of Tunupa, an Andean shepherd boy who leaves his native valley at the foot of the Apolobamba range, in search of the sea. Along the way he witnesses a terrible cataclysm that ravages the land, destroying the great maritime city of Ayar Mara with its golden Akapana pyramid. Following the deluge, Tunupa sets out on a wordly journey across the highlands and cloud forests of ancient Peru all the way to Polynesia, teaching people and helping rebuild communities scattered along his way. As he walks beyond magnificent Andean landscapes and voyages across the uncharted Pacific Ocean, Tunupa gains deep insight and self-awakening that makes people everywhere recognize him as their Hamawtha Wiraqocha or wise leader. Based on ancestral Andean legends, The Path of Wiraqocha is both a tale of a marvelous pilgrimage trek across forbidding Andean mountains, mysterious tropical forests and enchanting Polynesian islands, as well as a powerful metaphor of the spiritual journey of self-awakening that awaits us all.
