Ep. 100 - Mallku Aribalo - Andean Archaeo-Astronomy, Ancient Architecture & Solar Initiation

Hey everybody! Episode 100 of the show is out. In this episode, I spoke with Mallku Aribalo. I first saw Mallku in an excellent documentary a number of years back called The Revelation of the Pyramids. I was really impressed with his knowledge and when I realized he lived in Cusco I knew he would be a great guest. We got into a lot of topics that really fascinate me such as ancient cultures, Andean cosmovision and the Incas, archaeo-astronomy, the power of the sun and it’s initiatory impact, plant medicines and wachuma, the modern world, relativism and optimism, and the modern path of power and the warrior. I really respect Mallku and the work he as done learning and teaching himself through direct experience of the ancient Andean sites, power places, and cosmovision, and I hope and trust you all will gain a lot from his wisdom. We just touched the surface of these topics and I look forward to having him back on to go deeper into them. And speaking of archaeo-astronomy, it was quite auspicious that he came on the 100th episode and we happened to shoot this on 11/11/22. One small note: I forgot an audio cable so the audio ins't excellent, but hopefully still acceptable.
