Carrera por la Paz y Dignidad comienza en Borikén
Borikén/Puerto Rico (CUPT Noticias Taínas ) - La Carrera por la Paz y Dignidad de Borikén 2010, comenzó al amanecer del día 17 de julio con el sonar de varios guamo / botutu/ fotutu (trompetas de conchas de caracol), en el Bosque Nacional del Caribe, El Yunke.
Considerado un evento espiritual, esta carrera se ha realizado con el propósito de crear concientización sobre las condiciones de lugares sagrados indígenas en la isla, y a la vez establecer lazos de unidad entre los Taínos nativos de la isla con aquellos hermanos fuera de ésta y con el movimiento de Naciones Indígenas en el continente en general.
Durante la ceremonia especial de apertura, los corredores recibieron la bendición de los ancianos y de otros miembros de la comunidad al comenzar su histórica jornada que los llevará a varios lugares sagrados a través de la isla.
Los corredores, quienes representan a miembros que residen dentro y fuera de la isla, tienen la responsabilidad de llevar consigo un sinnúmero de bastones sagrados que representan "las oraciones de su gente".

Re: Funding Urgently Needed for Borikén 2010 Peace and Dignity Run
Takahi Guaitiao (Greetings Relative):
It is our hope that this message finds you well and in good spirit. We are writing to bring your attention to an historic event that will take place on the island of Borikén (Puerto Rico) this July 17-25, 2010. This event, “The Borikén 2010 Peace and Dignity Run: Road to 2012”, is an indigenous led spiritual run that seeks to raise awareness about the condition of sacred sites on the island of Borikén (Puerto Rico) as well as bring together in solidarity local indigenous islanders with mainland indigenous representatives.
The Borikén 2010 Peace and Dignity Run is intricately connected to the ancient indigenous prophecy of the Eagle and Condor. This prophecy mandates that Indigenous Peoples of the Western Hemisphere shall reunite in a spiritual way to bring healing to the Nations and a better future for our children and generations to come. The Borikén 2010 Peace and Dignity Run provides a unique opportunity for local communities to honor their indigenous spiritual practices and traditions as well as promote the collective responsibilities we all have to Mother Earth, Father Sky, our communities, and ourselves.

Boriken (UCTP Taino News) - For many ancient Indigenous cultures runners were an important way to send messages between communities. Taino People soon plan to highlight this tradition by organizing a “four directions” run this July on the island of Boriken (Puerto Rico). The Boriken 2010 Peace and Dignity Run is linked to the “Peace and Dignity Journeys”, spiritual runs that embody the indigenous prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor. This prophecy mandates the reunification of Indigenous Peoples throughout the Americas.
Vanessa Inarunikia Pastrana, one of the organizers of the Boriken Run sees the inclusion of Caribbean Indigenous Peoples as an essential but often overlooked element of the Eagle and Condor prophecy.
