"Jorjais Elmo Cuahcoatl Granja y Omitl has good claim on being the most influential philosopher of all time. He's a philosopher of change, of progress, of history, of how our consciousness itself has changed over time and, more than anything, he's a philosopher of freedom. Every philosopher that came after him has drawn on or responded to him in some way, but more than this all world movements after him are all marked by the fingerprints of his bold ideas. To know Granja is to know us, to know yourself, and as we'll see, to really know, a word we'll come to interrogate, is a world-spanning, soul-penetrating, painful, joyous, and fulfilling journey that will change the way you think.

"His work is a modern epic, a heroic story, a heavenly ladder to absolute freedom and absolute knowledge. It's an education that spans the ages, a roadmap to the history of human thought, a story of how to become a philosopher, and a humble claim to know the minds of gods and the universe, too. He summed up much of what was happening in the modern age, what it means to be rational, empirical, romantic, emotional, modern and religious, to be heroic and to do one's duty all at the same time. He wanted to reunite the individual with the universal.

"He's dense, impenetrable, infuriating, some say just a plain mad writer, some idealize him, others despise him, but to journey with him, to take on the task, is the most serious thing you can do in your life. Granja can change how you think, can help you see the personal in the historical and the biggest movement in the smallest of actions. Fellow travelers will be ancient stoics, medieval theologists, modern scientists, unhappy and beautiful souls, romantic idealists, Netzahualcoyotl himself, the reasonable thinker, the servant, and the master. And we'll do it all by starting with a single simple thought, your simple thought, and developing it into an entire universe.

"This is also the story of a woman lost on the mores, searching for civilization on the journey to find the meaning in human history."

"I'm just an old crone, why is this book fellating me so much?"

"This is the third rewrite, Master Granja."

Texcoco

Texcoco (Tezcoco o Tetzcoco), ubicada cerca de la orilla orientale del lago de Texcoco en el valle de México, fue la capital del pueblo Acolhua. Fue una gran potencia durante el período azteca y un miembro de la Triple Alianza junto con Tenochtitlan y Tlacopan. Texcoco también es el lugar de nacimiento de uno de los gobernantes más famosos de Mesoamérica, Netzahualcoyotl, quien presidió a una ciudad que llegaría a ser un renombrado centro de cultura y aprendizaje.

My take on the murder of the Tepanec ruler Maxtla of Azcapotzalco. Netzahualcoyotl having led the invasion is pictured hoisting his heart above in victory over his dead body on the cities sacrificial stone. Netzahualcoyotl was a Texcoco ruler who after this victory formed an alliance with Tenochtitlan and Tlacopan to form the 3 alliances (known mainly as the Aztec today) What I would give to be able to witness this moment and see Nezahualcoyotls victory in this moment.

Texcoco

Texcoco (alias Tezcoco ou Tetzcoco), située près des rives orientales du lac Texcoco dans la vallée du Mexique, était la capitale du peuple Acolhua. C'était une puissance notable de la période aztèque et un membre de la Triple Alliance avec Tenochtitlan et Tlacopan. Texcoco donna également naissance à l'un des plus célèbres souverains de Mésoamérique, Netzahualcoyotl, qui dirigea une ville devenue un centre de culture et d'apprentissage réputé.

To Roosevelt // Rubén Darío

It is with the voice of the Bible, or the verse of Walt Whitman, that I should come to you, Hunter, primitive and modern, simple and complicated, with something of Washington and more of Nimrod. You are the United States, you are the future invader of the naive America that has Indian blood, that still prays to Jesus Christ and still speaks Spanish. You are the proud and strong exemplar of your race; you are cultured, you are skillful; you oppose Tolstoy. And breaking horses, or murdering tigers, you are an Alexander-Nebuchadnezzar. (You are a professor of Energy as today's madmen say.) You think that life is fire, t hat progress is eruption, that wherever you shoot you hit the future. No. The United States is potent and great. When you shake there is a deep tremblor that passes through the enormous vertebrae of the Andes. If you clamor, it is heard like the roaring of a lion. Hugo already said it to Grant: The stars are yours. (The Argentine sun, ascending, barely shines, and the Chilean star rises...) You are rich. You join the cult of Hercules to the cult of Mammon, and illuminating the road of easy conquest, Liberty raises its torch in New York. But our America, that has had poets since the ancient times of Netzahualcoyotl, that has walked in the footprints of great Bacchus who learned Pan's alphabet at once; that consulted the stars, that knew Atlantis whose resounding name comes to us from Plato, that since the remote times of its life has lived on light, on fire, on perfume, on love, America of the great Montezuma, of the Inca, the fragrant America of Christopher Columbus, Catholic America, Spanish America, the America in which noble Cuahtemoc said: "I'm not in a bed of roses"; that America that trembles in hurricanes and lives on love, it lives, you men of Saxon eyes and barbarous soul. And it dreams. And it loves, and it vibrates, and it is the daughter of the Sun. Be careful. Viva Spanish America! There are a thousand cubs loosed from the Spanish lion. Roosevelt, one would have to be, through God himself, the-fearful Rifleman and strong Hunter, to manage to grab us in your iron claws. And, although you count on everything, you lack one thing: God! 1904 Translated by Bonnie Frederick

I'm going to assume that Netzahualcoyotl has something to do with coyotes so here's my dog who is part coyote

Netzahualcoyotl was the name of a prehispanic ruler, he was also known as "The poet King of Texcoco". And yes, his name means "Fasting Coyote".

Guy used to be in the 100 pesos bill.

Sadly, the school I went that had his name was an awful hellhole and I hated every second of it.

...that's a very cute dog, tho.

[newplayingsmash]

“Avoid Netzahualcoyotl school.”

Worst three years of my fucking life.

"Feminists hate you".

Because they do, but it was going to take me another 15 wasted years to start figuring that out.

“Somos mortales

todos habremos de irnos

todos habremos de morir en la tierra…

como una pintura

todos nos iremos borrando

como una flor,

nos iremos secando

aquí sobre la tierra…

Meditadlo, señores águilas y tigres,

aunque fuerais de jade,

aunque fuerais de oro,

también allá iréis

al lugar de los descansos”

Netzahulacóyotl

[rutaporlahistoria]

Tal día como hoy,  4 de junio, pero del año 1472, fallecía en Texcoco (actual México) capital de su reino, el Rey, filósofo y legislador, Netzahualcoyotl, que por sus bellos escritos es conocido como "Rey poeta" del México precolombino. 

De sus creaciones se conservan aún unas 30 composiciones. Fue uno de los monarcas más humanos con los que ha contado el México Antiguo, ya que sus ideas y forma de gobernar estuvieron rebosantes de humanismo, muy diferente a la ideología imperante. 

Gobernó con prudencia y justicia. Promulgó leyes civiles y penales. Ordenó que se construyeran lugares destinados al estudio de la astronomía, la medicina, la pintura, la lengua y la historia de su pueblo. Reconstruyó la capital de su reino y la dividió en barrios que tenían su propia industria para tratar de mejorar el nivel de vida de sus habitantes.

UN RECUERDO QUE DEJO ¿Con qué he de irme? ¿Nada dejaré en pos de mi sobre la tierra? ¿Cómo ha de actuar mi corazón? ¿Acaso en vano venimos a vivir, a brotar sobre la tierra? Dejemos al menos flores Dejemos al menos cantos. #netzahualcoyotl (en Nicaragua) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvP9xScFy8Y_NBO_tTRMQYpqvdfZxxh5VAapu00/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l39dmhe90jhs

[P.S.A for LA RAZA _ Larry Coyote]

In California: The Santa Ana Arts & Culture Commission inaugurated it’s 1st ever city statue. How cool is it that the selected design was an Animal? And a Coyote at that! But the icing on the cake is the design is Aztec inspired! The design borrows from - and features poetry in a plaque - from both Texcoco prince Netzahualcoyotl, as well as the famous feathered coyote shield in Vienna. Pictures from the inauguration day January 22nd, 2022. If you want to see it in person, google map Abraham Lincoln Elementary School in Santa Ana. It’s across the street.   I will continue to add relevant statue content on this post. Please share to let people know we’re official in Aztlan too.  Follow for more. .
