breastplate in the form of a jaguar-man | c. 1 BCE - 700 CE | tolima and quimbaya culture fusion (found in modern-day quindío, colombia)

"It probably personifies a jaguar-man, as suggested by the fretworks on the body which seem to depict the spots on the skin, the prominent mouth showing his teeth and the spread out posture of the body as if lying on his abdomen. The face, looking human, presents two longitudinal bands of face paint crossing the eyes." x

En "Pachita", Jacobo Grinberg relata no solo las experiencias extraordinarias con la curandera mexicana, sino también las enseñanzas espirituales que emergían de ese contacto. En el pasaje donde afirma que es necesario ofrecer “luz” pero, al mismo tiempo, dejar a un lado a quienes no están preparados o responden con rechazo, plantea una visión de respeto a la libertad del otro. La “luz” simboliza el conocimiento, la conciencia y la apertura a una dimensión más profunda de la realidad. Sin embargo, si una persona no puede o no quiere recibirlo, insistir genera conflicto y sufrimiento. Por eso, la enseñanza es seguir compartiendo desde la claridad interior, pero sin forzar ni permitir que la resistencia ajena entorpezca el propio camino.

White-necked Jacobin by Adam Rainoff Via Flickr: The White-necked Jacobin (Florisuga mellivora) is a captivating subject, and I was fortunate to capture this stunning specimen at Reserva Natural EntreAguas in Tolima, Colombia. This shot highlights the male's vibrant blue, turquoise, and white plumage, a striking contrast against the lush green foliage of its natural habitat. Positioned gracefully on a slender branch, the Jacobin's iridescent feathers shimmer in the soft, diffused light of the forest canopy. This image was taken at 1,187 meters above sea level, within the species' typical range up to 1,200 meters across various tropical regions from southern Mexico to western Ecuador, and east through the Caribbean and northern South America. From a technical perspective, achieving this shot required patience and careful observation. The White-necked Jacobin is known for its rapid movements and territorial behavior, making it a challenging subject to photograph. Utilizing a high shutter speed and a wide aperture, I aimed to freeze the motion and capture the intricate details of its plumage. The natural lighting conditions were ideal, providing a soft, even illumination that accentuated the bird's vibrant colors. This image not only showcases the beauty of the Jacobin but also reflects the serene and biodiverse environment of Reserva Natural EntreAguas. ©2021 Adam Rainoff Photographer
