Introduction
The ancient indigenous tradition of the “Mexihka” people – commonly known as the Aztecs – lives on in the Continuing Tetzkatlipoka Tradition, an integrated system based in cosmology and medicine that promotes individual and social harmony in alignment with the organizing principles of nature and the universe. Master Tetzkatlipoka traditional elder, Tzenwaxolokwauhtli Tzatzoehetzin and contemporary microbiologist and Tetzkatlipoka practitioner, Vickie Peck join forces to explore the surprising concordance of traditional Mexihka medicine and modern biological and medical science. Prepare for a fascinating immersion into a newly-revealed synthesis of ancient and modern scientific systems that offers a time-tested path to individual health, personal fulfillment and social harmony.

Co-author’s Statement:
I want to provide an accurate written introduction to the rich legacy of empirically-based health practices of the Continuing Tetzkatlipoka Tradition. It is my wish that these ancient practices for health can be strategically combined with selected contemporary technologies to provide a synergistic palette for maintaining health and facilitating healing.
I have attempted to draw attention to stories held in common between the Continuing Tetzkatlipoka Tradition and contemporary science that may indicate shared perspectives about the origins of our cosmos and about life itself.
There are complex decisions with serious consequences that must be made and implemented in order to steer a productive path toward a sustainable human presence on this planet. I feel that the time-tested Tetzkatlipoka practices are well-suited to aid people seeking to be conscious human beings to determine priorities, chart a course and provide leadership in a world hungry for health, wisdom and a renewed sense of purpose and community.
