(Senor de Qoyllur Rit’i)
Les habitants du district d’Ocongate (Quispicanchis) c\u00e9l\u00e8brent un rite qui a pour symbole ext\u00e9rieur l’image du Christ mais dont l’objet fondamental est l’int\u00e9gration de l’homme \u00e0 la nature.<\/p>\n
Le rituel, associ\u00e9 \u00e0 la fertilit\u00e9 de la terre et \u00e0 l’adoration des Apus (montagnes et en m\u00eame temps dieux tut\u00e9laires), fait partie de la f\u00eate des peuples indiens la plus grande Am\u00e9rique : le Qoyllur Rit’i. La c\u00e9r\u00e9monie principale se d\u00e9roule aux pieds du mont Ausangate, \u00e0 4700 m\u00e8tres d’altitude et \u00e0 une temp\u00e9rature en dessous de 0°. Le rituel consiste en un p\u00e8lerinage de bergers, commer\u00e7ants et curieux qui se r\u00e9unissent dans le sanctuaire de Sinakara. Selon la croyance, l’Enfant-J\u00e9sus d\u00e9guis\u00e9 en petit p\u00e2tre apparut \u00e0 un enfant indig\u00e8ne, Marianito Mayta, et ils devinrent amis. Quand les parents de Marianito les trouv\u00e8rent rev\u00eatus de riches habits ils avertirent le cur\u00e9 de la paroisse, Pedro de Landa, qui essaya de les capturer mais sans succ\u00e8s car la place de l’Enfant-J\u00e9sus apparut une pierre. Marianito mourut au m\u00eame instant et l’image du Seigneur de Qoyllur Rit’i se fixa sur la roche. Actuellement la f\u00eate commence le jour de la Sainte Trinit\u00e9 o\u00f9 plus de 10 000 p\u00e8lerins grimpent jusqu’\u00e0 la limite des neiges \u00e9ternelles. Ils sont accompagn\u00e9s de danseurs (chauchas, qollas, pabluchas ou ukukus) qui symbolisent les divers personnages mythiques. Les ukukus (ours) sont les gardiens du Seigneur ainsi que des Apus et des apachetas (monticules de pierres d\u00e9pos\u00e9es par les p\u00e8lerins en guise de p\u00e9ch\u00e9s expi\u00e9s) et se chargent de maintenir la discipline pendant les actes liturgiques. Un groupe de robustes Queros – habitants de ce qui pourrait \u00eatre la plus pure communaut\u00e9 quechua du P\u00e9rou – d\u00e9guis\u00e9s en pabluchas, part en direction des sommets et du mont (6362 m), \u00e0 la recherche de l’Etoile des Neiges qui est enferm\u00e9e dans ses entrailles.<\/p>\n
Au moment de retourner dans leurs communaut\u00e9s d’origine, ces robustes indig\u00e8nes chargent sur leurs \u00e9paules de grands blocs de glace pour arroser symboliquement leurs terres avec l’eau sacr\u00e9e de l’Ausangate.<\/p>\n
