THE KONDOR AND THE EAGLE

One could say that THE EAGLE IS THE MOST RECOGNIZED BIRD, since THE KONDOR IS NOT A WIDELY KNOWN BIRD.
The EAGLE IS CONSIDERED TO BE A BIRD OF VERY SPECIFIC, SELECT STATUS.
The EAGLE IS A BIRD OF PREY, WHEREAS THE KONDOR, ALSO A BIRD OF PREY,
PREFERS FEEDING ON DEAD AND SOMETIMES DECOMPOSED ANIMALS, making it
ALSO A A BIRD WHO EATS CARRION.
The FACT that the KONDOR INGEST DECOMPOSED ANIMALS has made it, IN ANDEAN
SYMBOLISM, a BIRD CAPABLE OF TRANSFORMING ALTERED OR CORRUPTED STATES OF BEING INTO PURE AND ELEVATED STATES OF BEING.
For the ANDEAN BELIEVE, IT IS NOT WHAT ENTERS THE MOUTH THAT CORRUPTS;
RATHER IT IS WHAT GROWS DEEP WITHIN THE SOUL THAT HAS NEITHER DIRECTION NOR INNER VISION.
The message here is not that we should consume something specific, but rather that WE SHOULD TRANSFORM  ANYTHING and EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT IN HARMONY WITH OUR
OWN LIFE EXPERIENCE, and ALWAYS STRIVE TO ELEVATE OURSELVES TOWARDS
THE DIMENSIONS OF WIRACOCHA.
