they know the mayan jungle
have once been under their trees
observing the stars in some night
feeling the wind listening to the sound
of your animals or just
observing its magnificence from a
pyramid
have been thinking or have
reflected on the importance
he has had since the ancient Mayans
until the current dates
the Mayan jungle that goes from the southeast
Mexican to the countries of Belize and
guatemala represents one of the lungs
biggest greens on the planet earth and
also the tropical forest the second
largest in Latin America after
Amazon
I grew up in the Mayan jungle, this has
generated in me a sense of identity
such
I have decided to study a lot of my
life and then generate actions in the
professional field related in how
conserve the Mayan jungle
along the way I realized that it is not
enough with what a person or a
team of professionals want to do
you need the backing of a society
of a culture of a worldview that
respect nature and you have
to be saying that is impossible that’s not
it may be already however let me tell you
that that culture exists
but it is being threatened by another
culture that is the western culture and
I’m talking about the Mayan culture
the Mayan culture of which we have
vestiges since 2000 before
Christ
in their worldview since the origin of
human being relates
to the human being with a very
close to nature for example in
the book of popol vuh you can
read what is said that the human being was
created from corn
from there we can see how not
there is a relationship of superiority or of
a superman being but there is
a very close relationship towards
nature the gods the gods to the
who worshiped was also the balam
there was the jaguar kukulcan the snake
to muse ncap with the bees and until today
in day if you have ever
lived with some peasant with some
hunter with any of these
men who live in the Mayan jungle at
better maybe you have heard some of
their stories their anecdotes that count
and that make us see that this worldview
is still alive for example I will tell you
a
It is said that
that there are some hunters that when
They go to the mountain and manage to hunt a deer and
get happy to your house and start
cooking they find it in the stomach of
this is a stone a stone that is
special
that gives them that power
is to be able to go with the security of
that every time they go to the mountain
they will find a deer as long as
be for your food self-sufficiency
to satisfy the need of your house
if they are exceeded if they fall
in the ambition to want to consume
too much to hunt for the skin to sell
for ambition
that gift is taken away by the same
nature is charged with life some
how many have survived and that’s why
we have heard about these stories
very interesting so from my point
of view I consider the criticism unjust
what the world bank does for
indigenous people when they say that they are the
main causes of the
deforestation
interesting truth
however something something is happening
something we are doing wrong because the
deforestation continues day to day
deforestation of the Mayan jungle our
grandparents are running out they are
dying
children young adults not so
greater
they no longer want to carry this inheritance
cultural do not want to take responsibility
because they are influenced by many
other ideas of many other habits
Ways of life that move away
of this cultural heritage they no longer want
be part of traditional doctors
farmers
and some others like me that we grew up in
the Mayan jungle but not necessarily
we were born in the cradle of the culture of a
Mayan house costs us a lot of work
understand this worldview live it be
part of it as such from from
child if we know bigger is more
difficult to learn the language
I do not know it’s more complicated but it happens and
it happens not only in this region
beautiful but it happens everywhere
of the world that Western culture
He is carrying out a path to
which make us believe
study have a title
will not be enough elements to
be someone in life
if this is going to give us the possibility of
solve our issues
materials such as having a house
purchased food
and some more luxuries
but there they do not teach us about the
importance of conserving our
identity that relationship that we must from
always keep as human beings from
Closeness and in harmony with nature
with western culture is also
happening that every day they take us towards
paths of increased selfishness competitiveness
we sometimes get the impossibility
of listening to others to the different
to the elderly to women
to others who also have a lot
knowledge to stop and observe
Western culture
it is not sustainable
however it is the path that is
predominating
after a few years of being
outside
outside the region for reasons of
studies for professional reasons
I decided to go back
to the Mayan jungle and study together with a
team of professionals propose
also join them actions in the
field that will take us to the
conservation of the Mayan jungle a team
of professionals all convinced in the
importance of the importance of doing
this work
from there from felipe carrillo puerto
in Mayan communities and we have also
had incidence at the peninsula level in
some other communities in yucatan and
campeche
we have promoted related actions
with sustainable livestock farming with
beekeeping with forest management
community with agriculture
sustainable
always taking into account the voice and
listening generating bridges
establishing dialogues between the grandparents
the younger generations
rescuing knowledge for example the
native seeds we have been pushing
the serious seed parties in the
region and we are now part of
of a peninsular committee that organizes
seed parties we have also
added to the national network in defense of
corn we have also installed orchards
we have produced organically with
the people so that we can do this way
more aware of the importance that is
preserve the jungle and be healthy in
an integral form, nothing more
physically but also mentally and
spiritually
this is how I have been part of a
alternative education process
of peasant schools
where the classrooms are cornfields
backyards
the solar of the people
where those who arrived those who
we came together in that space we all arrived
with the attitude of wanting to learn
peasant producers students or
anyone else interested with
Humility in the heart of wanting
learn and take us knowledge
new
because this mission
It is not only up to those who live
in the Mayan jungle, it is up to all of us
make resonate
the importance of conserving the jungle
maya this talk
It is dedicated to all the peasants and
grandparents
who live in the Mayan jungle and who have
dedicated his whole life
to take care of this great green gold the jungle
