We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all of you for joining us once again around the sacred fire. In this ceremony, we will submerge ourselves in the cosmology of the Wixarika people.

We will meditate with their chants and dance with their music, seeking to immerse ourselves in the wisdom of their ancient traditions. We are humbled to have the honor of hosting our beloved teachers once again at the Init and Waira House, and our relations have grown stronger through the years.
