Kawiterutsirri In- Person Meeting
Kawiterutsirri: Guardians of Ancestral Wisdom - The Kawiterutsirri are the council of elders of Grupo Tatewari, a group of dedicated Westerners walking the Wixárika medicine path under the guidance of Grandfather Fire, the first and original shaman. As initiated mara’akate (traditional healers and counselors), they ensure the integrity of this ancient tradition while making it accessible to modern seekers. Rooted in honor, respect, and spiritual responsibility, the Kawiterutsirri meet regularly to guide Grupo Tatewari’s work, holding ceremonies, leading pilgrimages, and supporting those called to the ancestral path. Their mission is to rekindle humanity’s lost connection to the sacred, bringing balance and healing to individuals and communities. Though they live in different parts of the world, they remain united through ongoing gatherings, both online and in person, ensuring that Grandfather Fire’s wisdom continues to illuminate the way forward.
Mara’akate Training
Closed Mara’akate Training Gathering - A private, invitation-only gathering for those called to the sacred Wixárika path of the Mara’akame. Led by Don David Wiley, this event supports deep spiritual apprenticeship, traditional healing, and continued training within a living ancestral tradition.
Fire Speaks — Asheville, NC. USA
Fire Speaks is a unique ceremonial gathering where participants seek guidance from Grandfather Fire, known as Tatewari among Mexico's Indigenous Huichol people. During these events, traditional healer Don David Wiley serves as a conduit for Grandfather Fire's wisdom, offering profound insights and teachings. Attendees have the opportunity to ask pressing questions about life's mysteries and deepen their connection with the sacred.
GFF Recovery Day
Recovery Day: Honoring the Sacrifice and Service of Don David Wiley
During Recovery Days, Don David Wiley is not available for sessions or events. These days are dedicated to his vital recovery after serving as a conduit for the God of Fire. Each time Grandfather Fire calls him into the ether, Don David endures intense physical strain as his temperature rises and he enters a deep trance-like state. This powerful process comes with great risk, as he channels sacred wisdom from Divine to share with others.
