🔴 PLANTAS MAESTRAS Y COSMOVISIÓN ANDINA: UN VIAJE DE CONOCIMIENTO DESDE TILCARA

·14 min·1 clip

A sociologist explains how animism, like Pachamama having a soul, structures Andean communities' worldview.

The episode begins with a repetitive musical intro, then transitions to a discussion on the relationship between master plants and original Andean communities. A sociologist explains that animism, such as assigning a soul to Pachamama, is a key structural element in these communities. Another element is the belief in at least three worlds: an inferior world of the dead, this plane, and a higher world, emphasizing constant change and evolution rather than death. The speaker references a 5,000-year-old record from Inca Cueva near Tilcara, where ancient use of Seville provided experiential confirmation of animist traditions, showing an elective affinity between plant experiences and community beliefs. It notes that early pre-ceramic communities of 30-40 people had strong community sense, contrasting with modern recreational use. The discussion shifts to specific plants, distinguishing guachuma from San Pedro, with the latter renamed by Spanish influence as the 'key to heaven.' Other plants mentioned include hypomea (LSA) and coca leaf, which is present in all rituals. Dr. María Eugenia Flores is introduced as an expert on coca leaf for an upcoming course. The course is described as in-person and free, with hybrid options, focusing on dismantling classical science concepts like 'hallucinogens' and exploring whether plant use was elitist or popular medicine. Archaeological findings by Dr. Clarisa Otero are cited, showing Seville was used medicinally by ancient workers as a long-lasting analgesic, akin to an antibiotic. The episode concludes with practical information about the course, including dates in June and July, certification from the University of Buenos Aires, and contact details via email and phone for enrollment.
