Aproximate English Translation
of the above
(Guarani Language of Paraguay)
Far from my beloved native land
and in the name of the Great Guaran Spirit, I would like to express my
gratitude and reverence for inspiring my perenne quest to understand and
implement my dreams and hopes of the many shamanic and indigenous heritage
of the peoples of Paraguay. It is with deep love and respect for the few
remaining virgin forests and its ancient traditional medicinal knowledge,
that I am proudily embracing the mission of protecting and promoting a
more rational utilization of the rich Paraguayan botanical-medicinal heritage
to ultimately benefit its people and humankind. Our faith, experience,
hardwork, and perseverance towards the attainment of our common goals of
providing a better chance to economic growth for the less privileged rural
communities of Paraguay, constitute the foundation to develop and establish
a sucessful 'Ethnobotanical Reciprocity and Sustainable Rural Development'
programs throughout the country, with the ultimate goal of improving the
living standard of the peoples of Paraguay.
Traduccion Aproximada
al Español
Lejos de mi querida tierra y en
nombre del espiritu del Guaran, me permito asi encabezar estos pensamientos
a fin de enzalzar, reconocer y diseminar parte del vasto conocimiento tradicional
de nuestra cultura shamanica indigena Paraguaya. Es quizas debido al profundo
amor y apego hacia nuestros bosques y nuestra cultura shamanica tradicional
que me acompaña desde mi infancia como un sueño perenme,
que puedo ocasionalmente percibir en el viento el lamento de aquella selva
una vez virgen cuyo llanto clama por un mayor respeto hacia la naturaleza
y la implementacion de politicas con criterios mas sustentables que favorezcan
tanto nuestros recursos naturales como a nuestras communidades rurales
menos privilegiadas. Tenemos fe en que nuestro esfuerzo mancomunado constituye
la base del exito de nuestros programas basados en el criterio de "Reciprocidad
Ethnobotanica Sustentable" los cuales facilitanran consequentemente
la consecusion del antiguo y comun anhelo de mejorar el nivel de vida de
una gran parte de la sociedad Paraguaya altamente dependiente del agro.
