In these testimonies dictated to her lifelong friend, anthropologist Diane Rus, Maruch Mendez Perez describes her years of dreams, instruction, and experience, a narrative that sheds light on the basic values of her Chamula culture and cosmovision and that has remarkable parallels to concepts of the ancient Maya as interpreted by scholars.
