Let’s Talk About AYNI: talk on Andean reciprocity.

“Let’s Talk About AYNI” is a talk on Ayni, the Andean principle of reciprocity, and on what ancestral traditions can teach about relationships and responsibilities surrounding altered states of consciousness. Behind the event is Ximena Xaguar (XHIVA), founder of Re Evolution Art, a Swiss intercultural association guided by “Bridging Cultures Through Art.” Drawing on teachings from Andean and Amazonian contexts, the talk explores how ritual and sacred plant practices are embedded in cultural, spiritual and communal relationships, and how ancestral knowledge can be approached with respect for Indigenous communities. It invites considering integration as an ongoing practice of attention, responsibility and care. The event is organised by Verein Photocreatives.
