The Popol Vuh is the luminous heart book of the K’iche’ Maya, a weaving of creation, heroism, and memory. From the first murmur of dark water the makers shape the world, attempt humans of mud and wood, and at last fashion people of maize who can speak and remember. The Hero Twins descend to Xibalba, play the sacred ballgame with the lords of death, and through wit, sacrifice, and rebirth set the pattern of cosmic order. The tale closes with the origins of the K’iche’ lineages and their sacred trusts. It reads like a council fire, intimate and vast, inviting you into an older way of seeing.
