Alrededor del año 700 de nuestra era, después de que la civilización de Monte Albán comenzara a declinar, los zapotecas iniciaron una comunidad llamada Mitla, de arquitectura es excelsa, cuyo nombre proviene de un vocablo náhuatl que significa "Lugar de los Muertos o Inframundo".

No es sencillo dominarse ante las palabras del insultador, no es nada fácil eliminar de nuestra naturaleza la espantosa pereza que nos impide hacer nuestras prácticas de meditación, no solo es el símbolo de la vida, al verlas así nos da clara idea del movimiento, cosa solo posible si aprendemos primero a no malgastar esta energía cada vez que nos enojamos.




He is not simple to control itself before the words of the insulting one, is not far from easy to eliminate of our nature the frightful laziness that it prevents us to make our practices of meditation, not only is the symbol of the life, when seeing them therefore it gives to clear idea of the movement, only possible thing us if we learn first a not to squander this energy whenever we got angry.
