Machu Picchu: The City of the Children of the Sun
by Jorge Luis Delgado
We're sorry but we're out of stock right now.
Machu Picchu: The City of the Children of the Sun, by Jorge Luis Delgado, guides us to the very essence of the Inka culture of Light – to a revelation of devotion to the Sacred as the heart and soul of the “children of the sun” who created and lived in this “City of Light.”
In Machu Picchu this legacy is a living expression of illumination – it is the gift of awakening, expanding our inner suns to bring light and love to our own lives, and to seeing the many gifts to be found when we stand in the Light.
The Inka spirituality shared here brings a much-needed alternative for living in our world: it offers us a way of being based on Love, Service, and Wisdom. And in Machu Picchu, what we think of as “mystical” is in fact a substantial and enduring reciprocal relationship between spirit and the “material world” – a relationship between architecture and nature that reveals a radiant intelligence and loving Presence revitalizing and nourishing our soul.
With Jorge as our guide, we enter the realm of Light that is Machu Picchu and discover multidimensional symbols linking us to a living field of resources - practices, rites, and ceremonies that support cleansing our “heavy” energies and revitalizing our personal radiance.
In Machu Picchu, in the presence of Peru’s beloved mountains - the Apukunas - mother earth and father sun empower us to expand our awareness. This is the gift that Jorge offers us: not only to see the beauty of Machu Picchu and Inca spirituality, but to understand that it is a gift of our innate nature and that we too are children of the sun.

Jorge Luis Delgado, an Inca by birth and heritage, walks the path of the chacaruna. His passion is to bring authentic Inca heritage, spiritual traditions and handcrafts to worldwide attention. Jorge considers the oral tradition, taught in the different Inca communities, as his ever-expanding higher education.
MaryAnn Male met Jorge Luis when she and her husband, Theron, traveled to Peru. They were so impressed by Jorge Luis and the spiritual traditions of the Incas they returned to Peru to learn more. During that visit they asked Jorge Luis to be allowed to help him bring his authentic voice to the world via a book. Andean Awakening is that book.
