Abstract:
This article describes the relationship that the Onanya healers, from the Shipibo-Konibo nation, establish with the spiritual Owners of the plants and animals, acknowledging that they have sensibility, intelligence, and language. This sacred link that is kept with the territory and with all the living beings could offer an epistemic, ethic, and practical alternative to the modern ways of relating to the world and depredating the earth excessively. The text is written from a position of enunciation intimately committed with the destiny of Indigenous people, by a couple that belong to a family of Onanya healers who live in the ancestral territory of the Shipibo-Konibo nation, at the shore of the Mapo Tae ravine.
Resumen:
Este artículo describe la relación que los médicos Onanya, de la nación shipibo-konibo, establecen con los Dueños espirituales de las plantas y de los animales, reconociendo que tienen sensibilidad, inteligencia y lenguaje. Este vínculo sagrado que se mantiene con el territorio y con todos los seres vivos, puede brindar una alternativa epistémica, ética y práctica frente a los modos modernos de relacionarse con el mundo y depredar la tierra de forma desmedida. El texto ha sido escrito desde un lugar de enunciación íntimamente comprometido con el destino de los pueblos indígenas, por una pareja de esposos que pertenecen a una familia de antiguos médicos Onanya y viven en el territorio ancestral del pueblo shipibo-konibo, a la orilla del caño Mapo Tae.
