Don Alberto Taxo is a celebrated spiritual elder, shaman, and healer of the pre-Inca Atik (Kichwa) people from the Andes Mountains of Ecuador. He has been sharing ancient Andean shamanic wisdom and practices in the United States for more than 20 years, his personal quest to fulfill the Andean prophecy that the Eagle and the Condor will fly together in the same sky in harmony.

Written with Don Alberto's permission and as further fulfillment of the Eagle-Condor prophecy, this book shares Don Alberto's teachings and his simple approaches for building a reciprocal relationship with nature, centered on Sumak Kausay, the way of joy and abundance. As a yachak, a shaman of the elements, Don Alberto shows how to relate to and receive help from nature. When we are connected with nature on an emotional and spiritual level, it creates joy that is deeply healing and can be accessed during life's difficulties.

The book discusses traditional Ecuadorian shamanic beliefs and practices, including Andean Inca cosmology; how to connect with plants, animals, air, fire, and water in sacred springs, the ocean, or your shower; and Inca concepts like Pacha, the space-time energy.

Don Alberto's upbringing in a family of yachaks, his initiation, and his personal work to fulfill the Andean prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor are also explored. Reflections and essays from several of Don Alberto's students and others who have worked with him, including Itzhak Beery and John Perkins, are included.
