Synopsis

The Quillasinga who walk their ancestral territory are the living memory of the land. They walk to learn and gain wisdom from their elders, to listen to the voice of the earth, and to learn how to guide their path. Walking recreates the ancestral wisdom of the spiritual beings who once inhabited the territory. Therefore, if one does not walk the territory, they disconnect from the spirit of life and walk with borrowed thoughts. Walking the territory is walking life, and life is what is named with spirit.
