Universe Within Podcast Ep103 - Joan Parisi Wilcox - Qero: Masters of Energy & Andean Cosmovision

Hey everybody! Episode 103 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Joan Parisi Wilcox. Joan is the author of a very good book that I read, Masters of the Living Energy: The Mystical World of the Q'ero of Peru, when I moved to and became interested in the Andean cosmovision. Joan has spent many years learning from a group of Andean wisdom keepers called the Qero nation. They consider themselves direct descendants of the Incas. They have a beautiful, simple, practical, nature-based cosmovison that I think is very relevant to the time we are living in. Joan has done a beautiful job at translating both the words, concepts, and worldview of the Qero, no easy feat! I really enjoyed speaking to Joan and having her share in her knowledge and wisdom. She is also the author of another book that I’d love to talk to her about another time, Ayahuasca: The Visionary and Healing Powers of the Vine of the Soul. As always, to support this podcast, get early access to shows, bonus material, and Q&As, check out my Patreon page below. Enjoy!

“Joan Parisi Wilcox is the author of Masters of the Living Energy: The Mystical World of the Q’ero of Peru and two other books. She has studied the tradition for twenty-seven years, mostly under the tutelage of don Juan Nuñez del Prado, and has been interviewed in documentary films about the tradition and written many magazine articles about aspects of the tradition. Her passion is to share the teachings of the Andean paqos with as much integrity to their original form as possible while acknowledging that we must adapt their use to our modern time and culture.”
