Skull Tomb seven of Monte Alban
ask me: How can we aspire to be "Toltec" if they hid their knowledge? Is manifest ever? Toltec If knowledge is in our subconscious, how do you recover?
; Mask Toltec
The aspiration to be Toltec is a universal aspiration of all people and peoples who have reached a higher level of consciousness. In every civilization has different name on to become a human being in balance and fully connected with the universe around him, from an ant to a star. Those looking as the supreme goal of existence-spiritual transcendence.

The toltecayotl not "rescue" or "view" instead recreates the "emerge" from the depths of the earth, historical memory and spiritual awareness each of their children. Therefore, the toltecayotl, says Felipe Chacón is "emerging" because it comes from deep inside, where it has always been and these days is starting to "emerge."
The toltecayotl not been "hidden" and less "buried" in the "archaeological sites or deposited in museums or stored in codices discovered. On the contrary, has been with us these past 1060 years. What has happened is that we have lost the consciousness of possessing it, the product of colonization fierce mental, spiritual, cultural and we have been subjected over the past five centuries.
The toltecayotl is manifested in our daily life in community awareness, family and individual. In fact, is what makes us - "Mexicans" - auque not realize. Is present in the values, feelings, attitudes, we have before: family, death, gozación and joy, suffering and sacrifice, the Earth and nature, work and community and so on. I learned through the mirror of Tezcatlipoca when I lived with the English.
Being a Toltec therefore not a matter of "scholarship, membership, or being born within an indigenous community and speak the native language, or be a student of a guru or shaman plastic have a membership to a prestigious NGO, or just be a regular reader of Carlos Castaneda. " It is more abstract, complex and subtle. It's a long process that involves a lot of work, challenges and failures, so you need to have tons of sinlessness, sobriety, restraint and frugality with the world and everyday life. But above all it takes sensitivity, discipline and a permanent and sustained "unbending intent" to stay humble in this process. Because the truth, "being Toltec" could well be said that implies a very long process to be "a moment before leaving." For these reasons it has been and is way to much, but very few.
Recovering silent knowledge that is in the gene pool of cultural information. First, with awareness that we need and that we possess. The problem is that we are unconscious and unaware of this rich legacy, in this portentous Cultural Heritage. We have been taught for centuries as "foreigners in our own land uncultivated, and deranged in a permanent attitude of despising one's own and exalt the alien.
In the last hundred years have taught us the Conqueror "blood and fire to listen to the colonizer, the missionary at encomendero, the employer, the foreman, the farmer, the investor, the officer, the politician, the teacher, and speaker extension. Therefore, we have forgotten the ancient art of listening. As a mixed culture, we know not to listen. Because due to colonization, the art of listening has become the frustration of just "hearing." Hear the oppressor and learn to obey. "I speak and you understand me, you obey, you obey. I think and I say, and you hear and do. (Lenkersdorf).
need to re-learn the art of listening, beginning with learning to listen to you ourselves, our bodies, nature, the cosmos, and so, to get to hear the wisdom of silence. That's just the toltecayotl.
And this "toltecayotl" yours, mine, all of us in the here and now, of course not be that of the Old Grandparents of the Classic Period, "that toltecayotl" is a historical reference only . Must be and is, the twenty-first century, with Internet, satellite phones and computers. Because the problems and challenges are other, more in the background, values \u200b\u200band core principles will be maintained and adapted to new circumstances and challenges. But the light serves toltecayotl and inspiration to build a new society "nostrica", which always runs for the colonization, the bosses and errands, the victors and the vanquished.
do not believe in recipes or formulas, less marketing muscle gurus and shamans "azotéricos." The toltecayotl is occurring at this time that I'm writing. Because I believe in you and me, in the "we" and of course, in our friendship.
