On 19.8.2022 around 6pm, very heavy rains fell at the headwaters of our beloved Piatua river, in the Llanganates national park, causing uncountable landslides and floodings. Our retreat center was unharmed, but the Piatua river has changed completely the way it flows, moved even the biggest stones, created new pathways and eradicated some pools. Now the river has a lot of sediment, soil and sand, and has a ayahuasca-like color. It will take at least couple of weeks if not months for the river to get back to its crystalline state. Unfortunately, fish could not survive such violet flooding and excess of sediments, the populations are expected to get back to normal in 2-3 years.

Today, on World Water Day, we want to open a window into the spiritual meaning and vision that indigenous peoples in the Upper Amazon have about this vital liquid.

Siekopai leader and protector of water, Justino Piaguaje, tells a story that explains the importance of this resource for his community, stressing that its significance extends far beyond its physical value.

"Water has material benefits: children can bathe in it, for example. But for us Siekopai, water is important even beyond its material use. Water embodies another world entirely. It has a spiritual identity.

In the past, our elders told us that the aquatic realm is ruled by 'Okome'. All beings living within the water live together in one big house. And in this house live our brothers and sisters, our uncles and grandparents.

We can enter this big house through our yagé (ayahuasca) ceremonies.

There is a story from the past, about a little girl who wanted to see the 'Okome'. She could not see it with her eyes alone. She simply could not see it. And so, a wise shaman told her, "If you take some of the sacred medicine of our peoples, then you will be able to see what is really inside this watery realm."

Today, we must heed the words of this wise ancestor. Until we can look at the world with different eyes, with a different perspective, we will never truly understand the importance of water to us, as human beings, and to the entire world."
