In this Master Class we will start with general knowledge about the Andean misa: different types of misas, their various functions, characteristics and qualities. This will give students a greater overview of understanding the misa in general. Adolfo will also describe the history of the khuya misas and the changes the misa has suffered in the times that have passed recently in this spiritual cosmology. From here we will focus specifically in the deeper study and practice of the hampi misa, because in our times it is important to know this for healing and protection.

The Hampeq Misa (also called the hampi misa) is a very specific type of misa whose primary purpose is healing. Typically containing huchas rumis (stones who specifically remove hucha) we will learn more details about this fascinating type of misa in this Master Class.

For example: Which medicine stones (khuyas) are used for yourself or for others? Which are the khuyas that remain in your principal misa? What is the history of the hampeq misa? How is the hampeq misa constructed? How is the hampeq misa different from other misas? What type of khuyas are in it? How are they are gathered? Are there special ceremonies needed to prepare the khuyas? What are different types of healing practices with the hampi misa? Adolfo will include teaching us healing techniques and practices that are part of traditional Andean Cosmology. The objective of this class is to know, practice and understand the hampeq misa. If time allows, we will also explore the chumpi misa and misa collectivo.

Adolfo is a masterful teacher who embodies what he teaches and encourages one to work with confidence, faith and love in what one is doing. He knows that the most profound comprehension comes with regular practice in harmony with the cosmos and the Andean Spirits. To my knowledge, Adolfo has never taught a class specifically dedicated to the Hampeq Misa. This will be a rare opportunity to learn this indigenous knowledge of the Andes.

Prerequisites: This class is for people who study Andean cosmology and/or already have a mesa or are in the process of building one. If you have not studied with Adolfo Ttito Condori before, or with one of his students, I highly recommend attending:
