About the Film
Above is a brief preview of the documentary "Unification of Wisdom". The film journey's through the life of Tz'utujil Mayan elder Tata Pedro Cruz, who is one of the last living Ajq'iij's (calendar day keeper) from the highlands of Lake Atitlan, in Guate-Maya. He has dedicated his work to preserve the ancient culture of the Maya, their cosmo vision and the teachings of the sacred Mayan Calendar. The film journeys deep into his mission of sharing the Mayan Calendar with his community, his country, and the world.
It details his challenging life, including a 30 year civil war, where he endured cultural and religious oppression, overcoming many obstacles, to where he is today on his current path which is teaching the youth of his community about
the Mayan Calendar and the importance of finding their purpose and mission on this planet and how to live in harmony with nature and each other.
This captivating film will take you on a deep and unique journey into the beautiful world of Tata Pedro, spanning across the country of Guatemala. We follow his journey to preserve and reinvigorate his culture about their native teachings and to dispel the myth's throughout the world that are surrounding the Mayan Calendar. He teaches the the true essence of the Mayan Calendar and universal message that the calendar embodies in connecting all of humanity.
"There is no world that is going to end." -Tata Pedro Cruz
