Ethnic Religions:
-Indigenous peoples in the remote eastern jungles also practiced traditional faiths.
-Shamans (both real and fake) in the Amazon offer experiences with Ayahuasca, a hallucinogenic vine that is often credited with giving visions. Cusco is also considered a center for new age “energy.”
-Over the centuries, Spanish priests managed to stamp out most of the traces of native religion, but some structures and beliefs remained. Cuzco’s temples were built over but not totally destroyed, and some of the foundations can still be seen. In a religious melding process known as “syncretism,” some churches combine elements of native religion with Christianity.
-Since the 16th century, along with Catholicism, expressions of the native religion, based on the cult of the Sun, the Pachamama (Mother Earth) and elements of nature, have also been present. -Ancient Peru had various polytheistic and pantheistic religions. The most important gods were Viracocha (lord, creator, and father of men) and Pacha Mama (Earth mother). The Sun, Moon, and such phenomena as lightning and mountains were also worshiped. Each culture raised temples to honor its local divinity.
