A 2026 PACHAKUTI MESA TRADITION MEDICINE CARRIER MISSIVE from don Oscar
My beloved PMT medicine carriers...walkers between earthly and heavenly worlds, let us begin this new cycle not by escaping the times we are in, but by standing firmly inside them.
In the Andes, we are taught that when the world trembles, it is not punishment — it is reorganization.
This is humankind’s prophesied Pachakuti: our moment of Great Turning, a time that rearranges what no longer serves life, so that a new order can emerge.
If you feel pressure, uncertainty, or fatigue, please do not assume you are off course. The mountain does not test those who are lost. It trains people to walk the path correctly, reverently, mindful of the footsteps they leave behind.
Remember what the practice of kamasqa curanderismo wisdom teaches us: Clarity does not come from force; authentic vision comes from being aligned and in harmony with life’s transformational nature and Pachamama’s shape-shifting proclivities.
Our medicine path has never been about escape, specialness, or having answers before they are earned. It is about learning how to stand upright when the ground is shifting and to keep your heart open without forgetting your center.
You are not asked to hold and heal the whole of Pachamama. You are only asked to consistently tend to your mesa—stone by stone, prayer by prayer, ritual gesture by ritual gesture. It is all about non-judgmental, embodied presence…here and now.
So, when and if our common Great Work feels heavy, let us return to the lived principle of aynikasunchis—in other words, ask not, “How do I fix this?” but “What is my right relationship here?” Right relationship restores energy; right relationship restores trust; right relationship restores The Path as an emissary of the Great Work.
The Machula Aulanchis, our venerated 'Old Ones,' remind us: You do not choose this path because it is comfortable. You walk it because your presence stabilizes the field.
Every time you choose integrity of Self and unattachment to outcome over urgency, every time you listen instead of reacting, every time you bless instead of hardening — you are participating in our current Pachakuti as a sacred shamanic guardian of our lineage, not a victim.
This year, you are not required to become something new.
You are asked to remember what you already are: A bridge. A witness. A carrier of balance, equanimity, and sacred reciprocity amid evolutionary dance shared by seen and unseen worlds.
When overwhelm rises, return to your body. Return to the earth. Return to the calm, gentle authority of your breath. For our mesa artistry does not rush. The mountain does not panic. The condor circles patiently until the view is wide enough.
Hence, carry this realization with you: “I do not need to hurry the turning. I need to stay present within it.”
Walk gently...Walk courageously...Walk in reciprocity…for Pachamama knows your name...And the path continues because you do!
In light, love, wholeness, and sacred relationship WE ever now remain. Remember this, experience it, live it--Hinayá!
With heart, don Oscar.
