Bolivia raises the Living Well, not live better at the expense of another, but a Live Well based on the experience of our peoples. Living Well is to live in community, brotherhood, and especially in complementarity. Where there are no exploiters or exploited, where there are excluded or who exclude, where there is marginalized or excluded.
Lying, stealing, threatening nature may allow us to live better, but that is not living well. On the contrary, living well meant to complement, not compete, share and not take advantage of neighbor live in harmony between people and nature. Living Well is the same as living better, living better than the other. Because for better living, compared to others, it is necessary to operate, there is a deep competition, concentrates wealth in few hands. Better Living is selfishness, disregard for others, individualism.
Living Well is at odds with luxury, opulence and extravagance, is at odds with consumerism.
Living Well is at odds with luxury, opulence and extravagance, is at odds with consumerism.
Nobody says: I look after myself
community, and the road is part of the plant. Nobody says I look after myself, I do not care about my community. It is as absurd as if the blade to the plant said: I do not care about you, I look after myself. All worth, each guar ¬ a space and we have our duties, responsibilities and land. All we need everyone. Based on complementing each other in the common good, mutual support organized the community and develop community life without destroying their ability to man and nature. Working
is happiness
not work and exploit the others may allow us to live better, but that is not living well. Living Well is general for everyone and everything.
In our communities we do not want anyone to live better, as we talk about development programs. The development is related to better living, and all the development programs implemented among the states and governments, absolutely all development programs from the church, we have aimed at finding a better life.
devalue our vision of life Front
total failure of development, the western world wants to copy the experience and la realidad de los pueblos indígenas, pero sin realmente entender su alcance. Han empezado a hablar del desarrollo sostenible, desarrollo sustentable. Ahora están hablando de desarrollo armónico, Desarrollo con Identidad, pero siguen hablando del desarrollo, de vivir mejor en vez del Vivir Bien.
Sin lograr entender ni asimilar nuestros saberes ni saber analizar bien la esencia y las implicaciones del desarrollo, insinúan en el marco de estas propuestas que los indígenas debemos buscar el acceso a los ‘beneficios de la modernidad' y el desarrollo, es decir, un vivir mejor a través de la ‘integración al mercado’ y la incorporación de la lógica de valoración occidental de la geografía environment such as tourism, oil extraction, mining and other productive and economic activities.
For this, we leave our uses and customs 'unprofitable', giving up our local livelihoods and our ability to forget self, to become labor and allowed free access to both the mining and extraction hydrocarbons such as looting and pillaging of nature, with the functional reason for us to new economic processes of neoliberal environmentalism and rely on the state so that it meets our needs.
devalues \u200b\u200bour knowledge, our vision slowly destroys Living Well's own disintegrating life and community and cultural development of our communities, both assimilating and making us dependent on foreign proposals that are contrary to our codes and values \u200b\u200bsuch as clearing the bases of both the subsistence of our abilities and skills to meet OURSELVES our needs and demands of Pachamama, which ultimately result in our communities will continue to appear as "the poorest of the poor." Threat
harmony with nature
Although we have been led to believe that development is the salvation of humanity and to help us live better, in practice we see the opposite which is the main causing extreme economic crisis in the countries where we live and the world, the crisis of nature and the serious effects of climate change, the imbalance of community life, social chaos and the threat to life and the planet.
The exaggerated industrialization in some countries, consumerism, addicted and irresponsible exploitation of human and natural resources, threatening to mother nature and keep the planet
The overexploitation of the planet's core resources by the industrialized nations each year consume 30 percent more resources than the Earth does regenerate, threatens life on Earth as the survival of native nations indigenous and ancient cultures that inhabit the world's most fragile ecosystems, such as: tropical rain forests, deserts, plateaus, mountains and islands, among others.
Every month that passes, are becoming stronger and more frequent disturbances and natural disasters caused by climate change such as El Niño and La Niña, prolonged rains, floods and droughts, heat waves, deglaciaciones, increased sea \u200b\u200blevels, hurricanes and tornadoes, fires in the tropical rainforest, expansion of endemic diseases, changes in the agricultural seasons.
is no solution
Therefore, the exaggerated and unlimited industrialization of Western models of accumulation, it is no solution for humanity and can solve climate change or the global crisis that profoundly affects our Mother Earth and our community life.
offer the world the Culture of Life
face of threats to humanity and the planet earth we have climate change and all other crises, there are two paths. Or follow the path of Western civilization and death, war and destruction, or moving in the indigenous harmony with nature and life.
Because Indian nations reservoir of ancestral knowledge and scientific knowledge of life in defense of life, our wisdom and way of life close to the earth, our values \u200b\u200bof coexistence between people and between man and nature within the limits of planet Earth are the best alternative save the planet.
No sector, no expert, no specialist, can discuss with indigenous people how to live in harmony with the natural world, not only in complementarity with humans. As children of Pachamama, Mother Earth, we offer the world our principles and codes of cultural, spiritual, linguistic and historical knowledge and ancestral wisdom of our grandparents, the historical memory that lies in the architecture, ceramics, textiles, saved all know that our elderly and elderly whisper in silence and we can "read" in their wrinkles and in our books of stone, speaking of the ancestors with lakes and seas moisten our tongues, the event that our genes ancestral wake up and talk to us, that the mountains and glaciers we converse, that the winds blowing in the ears. Lost
health of Mother Earth
We can not solve this global crisis if we do not save Mother Nature from the disasters in their decline is causing the culture of domination of nature of Western models of accumulation. It is the duty of nations, social forces, political forces, international organizations, care for Mother Earth as our mother, his capacity for self-respecting life and the planet.
Living Well is to recover the survival of our peoples, to recover the Culture of Life and regain our lives in complete harmony and mutual respect with Mother Nature, with the Pachamama, where everything is Life, where everyone uywas, servants nature and the cosmos, where we are all part of nature and nothing is separate, the wind, stars, plants, stone, mist, hills, birds, pumas, are our brothers, where land is life itself and home to all living beings.
Back to the path of balance
original indigenous nations have several principles, several codes that have stood for over five hundred years. Now we have decided to restore our values, to recover our codes. We have organized to return to our path, the path of balance, a way that allows us to harmony between people, but fundamentally the harmony between man and nature.
The Aymara have said that we must return again to be qamiri, we want to be back again. We are no longer, we are not. Return to be for us, it's back to be Qamiri. Qamiri say to a person who lives well. The Quechua say the same: we want our way back to our home and we want to be back Qhapaj. Qhapaj is a person who lives well. Among the Guarani, Iyambae is a person who lives well, is a person who is naturally fully unwound, without being subject to anyone. The elders say that a person without an owner. Back
be Qamiri
aymara We've said we have to return to our Thaqi, progress in Castilian. In Quechua that we must return to our yan. We must return to our tape, have said the Guarani. We decided to return to our path, the path of equilibrium not only between individuals but also between man and nature.
When we speak of our way back to our Thaqi, our yan, in our tape, we are talking of creating harmony between man and woman, between man and nature. Again we have become, because the settlement has led us to stop being. Many of us have ceased to be, we are not. Now we want to be qamiri back again, back to being iyambae, back to being qhapaj.
identity is more important than the dignity
In this process of change to return to our path, we are rebuilding the Living Well, Living Well one where each keep our own identity, respects the individual, respects the tree, plants. A world all respects, to the whole, as human beings and their environment. Identity is connected to the live well. If you do not defend our identity, we will die, we will disappear.
the contrary, the better life is supporting the dignity and worth of slave labor on plantations, decent work selling candy on the streets, shining shoes to be aparapita, carrying packages to employers. Dignity without identity is like a plant without roots and original seedless is a western costume and excludes forget what we have inside. Therefore, we are not Living Well content to defend our dignity, but the most important thing is to defend our identity, which becomes the foundation of our dignity and beyond it. It is more important to preserve our identity that we deem worthy.
seek a balanced life
The live better believe in social justice, but justice has never been. Justice exists only for a few in practice, when they manage to achieve what they mean is "fair" for them. For most human beings generates injustice, so that there is no justice on the one hand and injustice on the other. Social justice is impossible, that would have us believe possible.
Therefore, in the Living Well look no social justice first, because when we talk about building a society with social justice, we are only talking about people, and it is exclusive. The exclusion is not accepted within the live well, and we are against exclusion, discrimination. Our struggle goes beyond social justice. We seek a balanced life, we seek balance, strike a balance between men and between man and nature, a balanced life between men and women.
complementarity goes beyond freedom
better Living is looking for the freedom of theft, pillage and plunder the public purse, the freedom of having hundreds of thousands of hectares of land obtained illegally, the freedom to operate and indiscriminate pillaging of natural resources and the freedom to enslave and dispossess indigenous peoples continues to hold free and sucking state resources. the contrary, in the Living Well complementarity work because we are all brothers, we all complement each other. We seek an additional life, supplemental life between men and women, supplemental life between man and nature, where everything is governed by the laws of nature.
anyone in our communities has to be free. In our communities, We all complement each other, the woman is complemented by the man, and man is complemented by women, and we both complemented with nature. The man did not have to feel free, able to destroy the plant because the plant is our sister, is part of us. With the facility will complement, because both the plant and we are servants of Mother Nature. Consensus
more than democracy
We are going beyond democracy to deepen democracy, implement true democracy. We are not against democracy. We want to democratize information, we want to democratize education, we want to democratize cooperation. In Living Well, we are building a sovereignty where we make our decisions by consensus, which we resolve our conflicts, we agree, through community consensus and not through democracy, because democracy exists in the submission, where minorities subject to the majority or minority majority undergo. If five people, three are in agreement and the remaining two were not subjected to the first two, they are a minority. In a democracy, majorities are subject to the minorities. We broke
consensus, which we must all agree to make any action. It is very important to us, that each of us can intervene con el mismo derecho, y que tenga las mismas oportunidades, que pueda ser escuchado. Todos tenemos que convencernos y llegar al consenso, ponernos de acuerdo entre todos, tomar una decisión con la contribución de todos, no mediante el voto.
A partir de las leyes naturales que dan vida
Desde nuestros padres y abuelos siempre respetamos la tierra, el agua, el aire y el fuego. Por eso, somos pueblos que sentimos y respetamos nuestra papa, nuestra yuca y nuestro maíz, nuestros cerros, nuestros días y noches, con todas sus estrellas. Desde tiempos inmemoriales acostumbramos hablar con nuestras aguas y respetarlas, con nuestro sol y nuestra luna, con los vientos, los puntos cardinales y todos los animals and plants of our land with us. Our principles are the foundation of what we are now. We have always regarded nature as important as ourselves. The water we receive from the sky, mountains, forests and land are still living in the heart of our people. No wonder people are still sacred distinguish the taste of living water.
With creativity and joint action
For this reconstruction of Living Well is successful, the original indigenous nations of Yala Abya we have to encourage local and international shares, taking its own initiatives from our communities and nations.
With initiatives from the communities themselves and with government support driving the Living Well, With practices and resources from within our communities, we have to promote the reconstruction of Living Well, a Live Well based on complementarity in harmony with nature within the limits that the health of our Mother Nature permits, a Living Well Living Well or pointing to live in community, brotherhood, and especially in complementarity.
