These
three universes interacted in the reality, which
for us, people of modern mentality appears
strange and exotic; reality which our scientists
have denominated "Magic". The
Inkas to give structure and dimensions to their
universe, used the enigmatic system of "ceques"
- imaginary lines that ran in the form of rays
from the center of the Cosmos - the capital city
of Cusco.
These
lines pointed at shrines, sacred mountains and
stars, linking the worlds. Some of the Nasca
lines also can be considered as spacial axis and
ways of communication between these worlds.
The
plains of Nasca could have served as an enormous
stage for rituals and ceremonies with the use of
psychotropic (hallucinogenic) beverages, in which
the lines were the ways that lead from Kay Pacha
to those worlds of magic... and truth.
