His people kept this precept for some time. But some of them were weakening the connection given the fact that the dark spirits of pride and covetousness were taken over their spiritual bodies.
These people transgressed the precept and provoke the immediate falling from its places. The vibration that was suppose to be maintained broke from the source.
Viracocha had to confound them in order to preserve the rest of the people, leaving them without his protection. Falling through their sin, Viracocha cursed them.
Some were turned into stones, others into other things. Some were swallowed up by the earth, others by the sea.
A flood came over, which they called UNU PACHACUTI, which means "WATER THAT OVERTURNS THE LAND."
They say that it rained 60 days and nights. All but three humans were destroyed but, from these survivors, the human race once again sprang forth.
The world was still in darkness, though, so Viracocha made the sun, moon and stars from the islands in the centre of Lake Titicaca.
There alone remained some vestiges of those who were turned into stones, as a memorial of the event, and as example to posterity, in the edifices of PUCARA, a fortress city, located at 60 leagues from CUZCO.

VIRACOCHA, the quechua name of the "CREATOR." Part 1
According to the belief of the people of the Andes, they affirm that in the beginning, and before this world was created, there was a being called VIRACOCHA.
He created a dark world without sun, moon or stars. In the first book of Moses commonly called Genesis, in the first verses it is described a world full of darkness upon the face of the deep blackest hole.
The complete name of this being was VIRACOCHA PACHAYACHACHI which means "CREATOR OF ALL THINGS."
He first created the whole world in the spiritual realm. A race of giants formed, but their greatness were measured according to their size. It meant that the consciousness of the universe in the spiritual realm was evolving from these powerful forces.
It is confirmed in the Book of Moses when he mentions that the waters brought forth swarms of living creatures, forming the great sea monsters together with every living creature that moved, according to their kind. He is describing the formation of these forces in the spiritual world.
Not only this race of giants were formed in the water, also birds were allowed to fly above the earth across the firmament of the heavens.
This race of giants were spiritually painted and sculptured by VIRACOCHA. In other words, they were first an idea, then became reality through his thought. He did it just to see if it would be well to make real men of that size in the physical world. Men came after in the image of the Creator and they lived in a world full of darkness.
Viracocha ordered them to live without quarreling, and use their time in the pursuing of knowledge and service to him. They had to maintain a clear spiritual connection, and to achieve that, Viracocha gave them a certain precept which they were to observe. It was something like a hidden code. If they failed to do so then a pain of being confounded followed, breaking the source of its connection immediately. It is compared to as a type of vibration that the mind should identify only if the precept was followed rigorously.

The PLEIADES and the INCAS.
Astronomy played a key role in the powerful social organization of the INCA empire, in order to maintain such a vast territory under one rule.
Following the demise of the earlier HUARI and TIAHUANACO cultures, the INCAS took a sacred oath of moving the energies that governed those empires into a safe place. The city of CUZCO was laid out in a radial plan which mimicked the sky and pointed to specific astronomical events on the horizon.
The most important events involved certain risings and settings of the Sun, Moon, and Stars.
The PLEIADES star cluster developed a specific language when it rose or set, it signaled the start of the INCA year.
The PLEIADES were known to them as "The Seven Kids" after the seven brightest stars in the cluster. The INCA were able to see 13 stars due to the clear atmosphere at the high altitude of CUZCO.
They built carefully oriented pillars on hills overlooking CUZCO, and when the Sun rose or set between the pillars, it meant that it was the right time to plant at a specific altitude. If we reason this logic in term of power, they were able to capture important energies the needed to maintain the harmony between the cosmos and the land.
A whole range of pillars was employed so that the most accurate TIME-KEEPING record was possible for the high altitudes, the valley floor, and everywhere in between. The QUIPUS were the only method of recording this information they used and still is used by the local people.
They ritually made sacrifices to the Sun asking him to rise in the proper place for planting in the spiritual realm and the physical realm.
The astronomers built observatories where they capture the first and the last rays of the Sun through a series of specially placed windows. Their chief observatory was called "CORICANCHA", or "GOLDEN ENCLOSURE", and was covered completely in gold. A golden Sun disk faced the rising Sun.
The city of CUZCO in the Andes Mountains was the spiritual and political heart of the INCA empire.
When the Europeans (Spaniards) entered in this sacred city they felt uneasy. Many got goose bumps, tingles, warm rushes and a strange sense of fear. They panicked and declared that the INCAS were evil possessed people.
To hide their greed for the precious gold they saw in front of them they portrait themselves as sheep trying to help the INCAS to maintain the power over the extensive land. As soon as the INCA fell for it they kill him and the whole empire lost the cosmological harmony that once they enjoyed and maintained with their whole heart.

The Milky Way to the Incas meant a Portal to the Otherworld.
The INCA EMPIRE controlled the largest territory in the history of the New World. Its dominion enclosed the lands from Chile to Ecuador, from the south to the north, and from the west to the east.
To the INCAS, the MILKY WAY was referred to as a RIVER flowing through the world of the stars.
The VILCANOTA River was its hologram running in its terrestrial land from the southeast to the northwest through the heart of PERU.
The VILCANOTA and the MILKY WAY were considered twins. Each are said to be the mirror images of one another as if they were entities connected somehow in different planes.
The INCAS believed that the orientation of the Milky Way run southeast to northwest; and during the twilight periods of the soltice, a CROSS was formed in the sky. This CROSS touched the four points on the horizon in which the sun rose and set during the equinoxes. This Cross divided the stars into FOUR separate directional quarters, forming the FOUR quarters of the territory that the Incas controlled, which they called "The Tawantinsuyu" which means "The land of the four quarters."
The INCAS believed that the souls of the deceased went to the "UPPER WORLD" which they called the "HURIN PACHA."
This world was visited by the living souls in the night while they were sleeping. They believed that dreams were the views of the eyes of the soul. It was possible because of the Milky Way which was the Portal to heaven from the ones who still were bound to a life in the earth.
The Portal had channels of energy in specific location in each quarter of the empire in which the priests took the offerings from the INCA and his people to the entities who were in charge of this type of communication to maintain the harmony in the empire and a clear connection with higher powers.
The timing of the INTI RAYMI celebration in the ritual calendar was an exact coordination with the time that the Milky Way aligned with the Vilcanota River. They believed that it was the time in which Heaven and Earth reconciled and the sun rose and set in the Milky Way, and the people came to celebrate this reconciliation, in other words Heaven and Earth came together in a complete harmony bringing order and peace in the whole universe.

Why CUZCO was laid out in the form of a PUMA? By Angela Bernales
The ancient Peruvian capital CUZCO was considered, according to their religious belief, the point of attachment of the umbilical cord to the three levels of existence of the human race.
The CITY acted as such to the Inca empire during its great expansion. The mythology of CUZCO recalls that the CITY was located by "the children of the sun," from TIAHUANACO, according to pre-designed religious rituals.
The name CUZCO means "navel" representing a symbolic gate or small hollow in the middle of the belly from which, according to their belief, a soul was driven to any of the three levels of the Andean religious world (underworld, middle world and upper world). It was the soul's task to fight for the best spot in the upper world for the rest of the eternal life.
When the Spaniards arrived to "the land of the children of the sun," they did not understand the language of this sacred people. They lack of knowledge led them to believe that all was simply the work of demons or malign spirits. However, history and archaeology demonstrate that those wonders are the work of the Incas, Quechuas, the Andean People.
The Imperial CITY of CUZCO was laid out in the form of a PUMA, the animal that symbolized the INCA DYNASTY. The belly of the puma was the main plaza, the river Tullumayo formed its spine, and the hill of SACSAYHUAMAN its head.
The hill has three walls running parallel, built in different levels representing the THREE LEVELS of existence. UKJU PACHA, "the underground stage,"beginning from the bottom in which the boulders used were the biggest. Then followed by the KAY PACHA, 'earth' surface, the middle stage. Ending to the HANAN PACHA, 'sky' stage on the top. The levels were matched with their THREE SACRED ANIMALS : the AMARU or MAch'aqway representing the SNAKE, the PUMA, and the KUNT UR representing the andean CONDOR. These THREE levels divinely interacted and still is known as THREE. This number represent a key number among QUECHUAS, the people of the Andes.

The story of the Giants of the ICA-NAZCA region. Part 2. By Angela Bernales
The GIANTS lived in continuous hostility with the local people of the region and with the natural resources of the environment. They slew almost all the women in order to exterminate the communities of their neighborhood. They also slew the men for other reasons.
The Giants were killing all the natural resources of the Ica-Nazca region of Southern Peru including humankind.
The local people weren't powerful enough and neither numerous enough to kill the GIANTS who occupied their land and lorded it over them, and although they held great discussions about rebellion, they never dare to attack them.
Years passed and the GIANTS still inhabited the land of the ICA-NAZCA region. Because they were only men and they had no women of their own and the women of the neighborhood were too small for them, they mated with each other openly in front of everybody showing through their reckless behavior that they were powerful enough to do whatever they want to whoever they wanted without fear.
They felt as if they owned the world.
The local people felt very unpleased with the grotesque scene and a complaint were heard in heaven.
The CREATOR, unwilling to conceal the sodomy practice committed by the GIANTS, sent them a punishment suited to the beastliness of the crime.
He waited until the time of the giant's mating came and when all the GIANTS were together engaged in this accursed practice, THERE came a fearful FIRE from HEAVEN to the accompaniment of a great noise, IN THE MIDST of which a SHINING ANGEL APPEARED holding a sharp, bright SWORD with which HE SLEW THEM ALL AT A SINGLE STROKE and the FIRE CONSUMED THEM leaving only a few bones and skulls, with which the CREATOR allowed to remain unconsumed as a token of the punishment to be remembered by the people of the ICA-NAZCA region.

The story of the GIANTS of the ICA-NAZCA region. Part 1. By Angela Bernales
This is the account of the people of the Ica-Nazca, region in Southern Peru, about the GIANTS that inhabited the region before the Biblical Deluge in Noah's days happened.
This story is believed by all the people of the Cordillera of the Andes. It is said that very large bones have been found and still are found places where the sites of their villages were and also the wells or cisterns they made.
Since they represented a menace to their region in terms of mystic language, they preserved the places untouched believing that if anyone open up the vault of these negative energy it will devour the souls of the ones who dare to do it.
The Spaniards says in their chronicles about the area, that they saw pieces of teeth that must have weighed half a pound when whole, and also a piece of a shin-bone of enormous size.
It is said that they came by sea, from very remote times, on gigantic reed rafts and landed on the coast at the point of Santa Elena, in the vicinity of the city of Puerto Viejo. Men were so big that an ordinary man scarcely reached up to their knees. They had enormous heads and their hair were grown up to their shoulders, their eyes were as large as the size of the head of an average man. They had clean shaved faces. Some of them wore animal's skin and others were just naked. There were no women with them.
When they reached the Ica-Nazca region, they set their camp like a village. They didn't have water. Instead of moving out, they remedied the lack of it by making some very deep wells. The job was undertaken by such strong men. They dug these wells in the living rock until they came to the water and afterward they built the wells in the living stone from the water line upwards so that they would last for ages. The water from wells were excellent and always cold, very pleasant to drink.
When they were settled and the wells were finished, they ate all the supplies they could find in the neighborhood including men. it is said that one of them ate more that fifty of the people of the land and as the supply of food was not sufficient for them to maintain themselves, they change their diet to sea products. They caught so much fish with their enormous nets and gear that they had.
