Naturaleza y espiritualidad: un refugio para resistir y tener esperanza

Nature and spirituality: a refuge for resilience and hope

"¿Alguna vez has sentido la textura del musgo que crece sobre los árboles de un bosque o visto la inmensidad de un desierto cuando el sol recién cubre de colores la tierra? Si te has bañado en un gran cuerpo de agua conoces el escalofrío que te recorre cuando haces contacto con el frío de las aguas del sur o la calma de sumergirse en la tibieza del agua tropical."
Nataschia Navarro Macker, Chile

"Nuestra carne ha enfermado hace tiempo,
no hay títulos ni honorarios en su naturaleza.
El reloj avanza con la marea, se agita hacia nuestro eje.
El latido sueña flores y la carretera sube,
la marea ha llegado a nuestro pecho.
Siente cómo el tiempo se detiene y avanza. Su ritmo."
Melisa Nungaray Blanco, Mexico

"Assim, não consigo deixar de pensar que, ao florescer exatamente nesse momento – em que 'o autoritarismo se multiplica, o conservadorismo nacionalista e o extremismo religioso expandem território, e em toda parte ressurgem guerras colonialistas de alta-intensidade', entre outras problemáticas informadas pelos editores da revista por e-mail –, as talipot querem nos dizer alguma coisa. Uma mensagem destinada só para nós, transmitida por sistemas complexos enraizados com firmeza no solo do Rio do Janeiro."
Ian Uviedo, Brazil

"Por las cimas de las nieves
perpetuas del gran Salqantay
se asoma el imponente sol dorado
sacudiendo su hermosa cabellera,
al ver me alegro y me inclino para recibir tu energía."
Rubén Yucra, Perú

"Salqantay orqoq k´awchinmantan
qori inti wach´irimun;
qori sunqhanta waqta waqtariyuspa,
chayta rikuspan ancha kusisqa
tukuy sonqoywan napaykuni."
Rubén Yucra, Perú

“Have you ever felt the texture of the moss growing on trees in the forest, or seen the vastness of a desert when the sun has just immersed the earth in colour? If you have swum in a large body of water, you know the shiver that runs through you when you come into contact with the cold waters of the South, or the calm of diving into the warmth of tropical waters.”
Nataschia Navarro Macker, Chile

“Our flesh has long since fallen ill;
by its very nature there are no titles or honours.
The clock moves with the tide, stirring towards our axis.
The heartbeat dreams of flowers and the road climbs,
the tide has reached our chest.
Feel time stand still and move forward. Its rhythm.”
Melisa Nungaray Blanco, Mexico

“I cannot help but think that by blooming at precisely this moment—while ‘authoritarianism is on the rise, conservative nationalism and religious extremism are gaining ground, and powerful colonial wars are resurging everywhere’, among other issues highlighted by the magazine’s editors in an email – the talipots are trying to tell us something. It is a message intended solely for us, conveyed by complex systems firmly rooted in the soil of Rio de Janeiro.”
Ian Uviedo, Brazil

“Between the eternal snow-capped peaks
of the great Salqantay
rises the imposing golden sun
shaking its beautiful hair,
at this sight I rejoice and bow to receive your energy.”
Rubén Yucra, Peru
