Our Team
Stephano Gutierrez Manrique: The fact of being around the city in Lima Peru where I was born and raised there with a very humble family full of love and with a slightly orthodox belief like Christianity, studying and working with things that really makes you feel false , identified by a certified profession or personal card, forcing me to turn everything in a dual world that took me to the competition, because if you are not the best, for society you are nobody, I studied management of Hotels and Restaurants, i was “Flair Bartender” ( Barmanshow) For many years, I was in bars, nightclubs parties both in Argentina and in Peru, I had a pretty crazy life, until I reached a point of being absorbed by it self, my life took a 360 flip as I went through the Darkest stage of my life a strong decision that my family made to be able to change it, a place where you touch madness and the only salvation is your own belief, spend 365 days in a sanitarium , where I had psychological and all kinds of psychiatric treatments, because nothing could be against the energies that controlled my mind, I ended up having suicidal thoughts, I decided to accept everything that was happening, because there was no way out of those 4 walls, it took a long time see the limits of my dark side, because I am grateful to have touched those limits to know the essence of its opposite and to be able to know myself in this transcendental version, this dark stage that it was necessary to know it in order to understand why I am here, where I find the Sacred Valley of the Incas and feel grateful for each day of the Sun, the “transcendence” is what I come to transmit, my life my experience is an example to share it I had to go through quite dark and painful processes high and low, break paradigms and get to the point where I am, but it was all because I didn’t know who I was, now I know that every experience every mistake, every moment , were decisions that led me to make the person that I am, and that there is no definition to say “who I am” or what I am, what these sacred lands made of me is priceless, it is clear that having lived in nature changed the resonance From my heart , and gave me back my intuition, my magic, my path, i spent 8 years working in the Andes acquiring knowledge of their people their master plants, temples and power Wakas, thanks Andean Encounters the responsible and sustainable tourism company that I founded already 7 years, it gave myself the opportunity to meet several times with the heart of Pachamama in many ways, where I come to show the less conventional side of Cusco Peru, involving projects where many high Andean families need it, a much deeper local contact, without the help of conventional guides, here the Andean are the guides and keepers of an ancient sacred knowledge protected for more than 5,000 years until the time of the conquist, So where the Spaniards and their church removed their “idolatries.” The Incas not only named it Sacred Valley for its fruits and crops, but for what this sacred place can do for “you”… I know that this place saves a lot for those who are worthy and feel prepared to transcend themselves, that is why was called the “navel of the world” , Qosqo a central vortex, where you will find your true origin where tribes of many cultures went to the center of that center just for love of themselves to return to the womb of the Earth and be reborn with a new consciousness , a higher self an improved version of itself. As it happened to me… you just need to remember.
Claraluz Llerena Saavedra: I was born in this beautiful land of Cusco all my family is also from here. Since I was little I felt great love for my culture for the people for their traditions, I grew up seeing very closely the living culture of Cusco, the community life of my high Andean people who are the closest to the ancestors to the grandparents to the Incas. In the Andes, the traditions are still kept, but many of them have been lost and some do not know exactly where all these teachings come from. It is for this reason that poverty thinking has come into existence, only the very old remember the true teaching of grandparents. I had the upbringing of my mom and my grandmother who were different but always full of love. My grandmother was a woman who cured only with plants. My grandmother kept very inspiring secrets for me now, she was very far from western medicine, she got very little or almost never ill and if she did she had the perfect money for and treatment to cure you. Religiously, she gave us mats of detoxifying and cleansing herbs at 5 in the morning just before the sun rises, she was an expert in healing with body purges as well as cleaning energy with eggs, smoke candles and other very deep traditions, instead my mother was closer to the wing. western medicine which also taught me to be able to choose in the future. Many years ago I moved to the sacred valley of the Incas after a very hectic city life since a part of my life was in the north of my country where I learned and lived the reality of being a mother for the first time a person with schedules and constantly running trying not to be far from my being but being part of the same circle which broke to make a spiral today with my daughter, I have managed to melt and empower my soul although the road is long I continue day by day loving my step by thanking for everything that make me who I am. When I returned to Cusco this time to the heart of the Sacred Valley, we were welcomed as a daughter who returns to the nest so much happiness and synchronous connection of destiny … I am learning a lot of art and a lot of magic. Deeply connecting with my being, being visible to me, even more essential and important in life, giving me a lot of peace and high love and reconnecting with my roots again. All this invites me to be the most impeccable version of me. I had several experience with entheogens that helped me understand that the vast dimensions and states of consciousness have nothing but a reality in life that body, mind and spirit have to be connected to each other in order to be in balance. I continue to learn many things in this sacred land from super foods to Andean fabrics and before this I connected strongly with music in a much deeper way, seeing everyone with the eyes of my soul understanding that I am a sound just like all things in the world. I am grateful to share with you all the precious teachings I learned and remembered living in the sacred land of my ancestors so full of wisdom.

Sacred Geometry Andean Code
Sacred geometry invites us to a form of language that communicates with everything created, that’s why many indigenous tribes left us engraving a lot of their wisdom on the rock, Sacred geometry leads us to a higher level of consciousness as if it were a vehicle, the resonances emitted by these frequencies stimulate the psyche of the soul and the body, serving as a cosmic tissue that connects and unites us all, in each pulse your heart emits vibrations according to the resonance of your feelings or emotions creating geometric patterns that determine the quality of your energy. Enteogenos Peru considers Universal Sacred Geometry to be essential as part of our programs, since most of its visionary mystical experiences with us involve these patterns and some very specific ones that we will teach you to meditate with them frequently, you will also have knowledge of Ancient symbology that were engraved on the rock in Megalithic temples throughout the world
Pilgrimage Solar Initiations
In the Andes there was a sacred elite lineage within the Inca nobility called priests of the Sun, they were great masters of Wisdom who keeps the wisdom of the Andean code and their ancestors older brothers, through this network of sacred pathways that they take to the center of the QOSQO, the initiate had to face, to the hunger to the silence of the mountains, to the mother nature, to the noise of your mind, to your feelings, to the fear and to your dark side, the whole network of interconnected Inca roads through these Wakas, where on their pilgrimage to these temples they understood these deep states of consciousness, not all Wakas was only for darkness, Machu Picchu was for the light and refine energies , to understand the wakas is to understand the role they have for us, each Waka has a purpose in your awareness,from your heart to your mind , The Sun (Inti) is our greatest giver of light, and with the help of the Sun, we can energize our ideals, goals, feeding on more light, these meditations were widely used at sunrise as at sunset so we empower our wishes being as a great manifesters as our great Sun.
Multiverse Quantum World
We invite you to observe the creation from different angles in which your consciousness coexists with these realities, the quantum leap are different ways of conceiving what you call matter, energy, time, space we will invite you to observe your physical reality from different planes and perspectives, the ancient Priests of the Sun performed initiations or ceremonies in sacred Wakas used as dimensional doors for consciousness where the body stays and the soul travels connecting with the source, accessing information through a quantum leap . These dimensional doors were used on specific dates activated with elements of power such as Gold that emit high and fine resonances, and with master plants as keys that allow us access to this multidimensional world. For the ancients this jump was symbolized as the stepped cross, the “chakana” in Quechua means “CHAKA HANAN” (Bridge to the heaven), a bridge or portal that take us as a vehicle between dimensions, a door between the Hanan pacha world of higher consciousness and Uku inner subconscious.
