K’iche’ (Quiche) Mayan

- The creation myth/account - The repitition: “the Resplendent Plumed Serpent” “Modeler, Maker…” - “The original book” as the oral tradition - Think about it as a cord in a fabric knitted or stitched together. An active imaginative process with voice and text. “inscribe”, “reader”, performed as well. But not as a stage drama (that too) but in an experiential way. - THIS IS THE ACCOUNT: it exists even when unnoticed, “ripples” “murmers” like whispers in the wind until stillness - Commentary: “existed as a picture writing” – Homer “poems were intended to be read aloud, often with musical accompaniment.” - How to read/experience (13) from “There is the Original Book / and ancient writing…” and become a participant as well - The colorful feathered serpent and the Heart of Sky must work together to come out of darkness - Genders for the spirits/gods/sage?
