General information:

The Hatun Karpay ( in Quechua “the Great Initiation") in Italy was born from the idea of offering the complete jorney of initiation in the Andean spiritual tradition using the concept of "Ranty", which can be translated by the Quechua "equivalent."
In the Andes this adjective is used for defining the " energetic quality" of a factor of the reality, independently from its characteristics of kind of affiliation. It is applied in the case of "living" beings and in the case of sites of power. After a search of many years and obviously stimulated, supported, and comforted by the experience of Juan Nunez del Prado, the staff of Tawantin Association has succeeded in reconstructing a coherent system of use of ancient Etruscan sites of power, that we can use for developing the Italian hatun karpay, maintaining the same structure of the Andean journey. At the same time it is a great recovery of the roots of the western civilization, this recovery has its natural conclusion, as it regards the" Great Civilizations", in the work with the city of Rome. For this reason we inserted the Roman Llakta Karpay (jorney of initiation in a limited geographical zone = city), which begins from the connection with the foundation of the city and that it ends at the Basilica of St. Peter.

Daily program:

1st Day
• Arrival at Rome in the morning and transfer by car to Pitigliano, accomodations in the rooms, rest, supper and introductory reunion;
2nd day
• Sanctuary of Madonna del Cerreto. The Church has been built in the site of the first apparition of the Virgin in the modern times (before Fatima and Lourdes). We will perform a practice of connection with the female principle (the Madonna) and the masculine one (Jesus Christ). Outside of the church there is a source of sacred water where we will work leaving the heavy energy.
• Fonte della Nova. Ritual of the 4 directions, despacho (Andean ritual of offer) and exchange of personal power (Karpay Ayni). It’s the widest installation of the age of bronze in Italy (XII century before Christ). It’s on the the intersection of two deep volcanic canyons which preserve the uncontaminated naturalistic habitat. On the top of the tall cliff there are medieval rests of a church where we’ll perform the ritual of the four directions with the principal mountains of the Maremma (Apus), the ritual of the despacho and, above a great stairway altar carved in the tufo (the "Holy Stair"), the Karpay Ayni (exchange of personal power). The monument of pre-etruscan age (X century before Christ) is in the style of the most archaic rocky altars.
3rd day
• Sovana - Necropolis of the Calesine. Sovana was the principal religious center of this part of the Etruscan land. In a deep volcanic canyon, inside a monumental tomb, the " Pisa Tumb", we’ll practise the recapitulation of our own life in connection with the energy of Mother Earth.
• Lake of Bolsena. After the lake Titikaka, Bolsena is the greatest volcanic lake of the world. Sacred and geographical "Navel" of the twelve Etruscan city-state, the lake and its waters were revered in the name of the goddess Voltumna, the great etruscan Goddess Mother, patron of the fertilizing waters. Facing the lake the promontory of Bisenzio leans out with his holm oaks, here are preserved some Etruscan sacred places. On the shores of the lake we’ll perform the ritual of invocation to Waskar Inka and Tages with the following offer of the kuyas (sacred objects of power).
4th day
• Pitigliano, was the greatest etruscan center in the river Fiora valley. Near an ancient source, the Source of the Elm (or of the Sileno) the ritual of connection will be practised with the nymph (nusta) of the water. Then we’ll perform the practice of differentiation and following union of the masculine and female principles (Masintin-Yanantin). Then we’ll go down in the path and we’ll enter in a tunnel cut in the rock, (practice of the dark and the rebirth).
• Poggio Rotondo (Sorano). The rocky hill was anciently a place of observation of the sky where there are traces of a primordial cult of the natural elements. Practice of the sun and the wind.
5th day
Park of the Monsters (Bomarzo). In the country, few kilometers from the city of Viterbo, we’ll go to the Park of the Monsters of Bomarzo also called "The Sacred Wood." On the botton of an ample volcanic and wooded valley there is a park with unusual megalitic sculptures which have been realized in the Renaissance from a school connected with the esoteric tradition of the Hermetism. Monuments with symbolic and mythological subject - the giants, the earth's goddess, the dragon, the sirens etc.- they are settled to composing an iniziatic itinerary. It’s the only park of this type existing in the world.
6th day
• Sovana, Etruscan necropolis of Monte Rosello. In the canyon under the village there is a great sepulchre, the " Colombaio" where we’ll perform the ritual of the practice of the death.
• St. Colombano: church graven in the rock close to a sacred place of etruscan age. At the interior there are frescos and architectural motives of templar inspiration (XII century AD). Ritual connection with the masculine and female principle.
7th day
• St. Galgano: it is found few kilometers from Siena. In the hermitage of san Galgano there is a sword in the rock of the XII century. The interior of the abbey has a very similar style of the abbey of Glastonbury in England. We will perform a ritual of group with the sword in the rock and the ritual procession of the" real couples" (panakas). At the end we’ll build a column of collective energy (Saiwa). In evening we’ll come back to Rome.
