Those who aspire to international reach must first sing of their country — its places, its totems, its family, its beloved homeland, childhood, traditions, culture and golden age. To sing of Bolivia is to honour its contrasts, to offer an ode to its landscapes and its communities. No nostalgia, no false prophecies. Doesn’t the past take root in the future? Don’t poets always err by being right too soon?
In every place, then, the urgency to live well, to honour memory, give nobility back to the field, a church to the village, and life to heritage. In every place, a different rhythm: a time for connection, a time for knowledge, a time for work. In every place, finally, the green lung and vital breath — the pneuma of Mother Earth, the breath of humanity. Let us go explore those very places.

A living heritage is a ministry — and does it not take great virtues to sustain good fortune? Cardinal virtues that call for wisdom, discernment, initiation, but also a spark of genius and a taste for discovery. Let us not mistake the horizon for the limits of the world.
On the horizon, buen vivir — a life of balance, prosperity, solidarity and serenity, free from need, aligned with the environment
On the horizon, luminous knowledge — sapere aude, the universal and emancipating work, the spirit of openness, drawn from experience and reason
On the horizon, the common Good — family spirit, pride, mutual respect, love for the country, and a renaissance of traditions
