}}{{Use mdy dates|date=January 2014}} Elizabeth B. Jenkins (born March 11, 1960 in Manhattan, New York) is an American writer of popular spiritual books including the international bestseller The Return of the Inka: A Journey of Initiation and INKA Prophecies for 2012. She is a licensed psychotherapist, cultural investigator and worldwide teacher of the Inca tradition. Jenkins earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota in 1983, and a Master of Arts degree in Integral Counseling Psychology graduating in 1987 from the California Institute of Integral Studies, San Francisco. In 1988 she began a Doctor of Philosophy degree in integral counseling from the institute, only to be inexplicably called to abandon her studies for a quest to Peru. In 1988, Jenkins traveled to Peru, where she experienced a spiritual awakening, which she described in her spiritual autobiographies: A Journey of Initiation and INKA Prophecies for 2012 and Golden Cradle of the Inka. During this time she met the man who would become her teacher and guide, Juan Nunez del Prado, the foremost expert on the Andean Mystical Tradition. In 1990 she received the Hatun Qarpay – The Great Initiation Ritual. This ancient ritual springs out of the 16,000-year-old tradition of nature mysticism in the Andes – designed to bring the individual into direct, intimate and mystical relationship to the Divine through Great Nature herself. From 1992–1996, she served as Juan Nunez del Prado's apprentice working intensely with him initiating groups from all over the world in Cuzco, Peru. In 1997, with the publication of her first book, she independently facilitated her first Hatun Qarpay. Since then, Jenkins has initiated close to 1,000 people into the Hatun Qarpay becoming a skilled, spiritually proficient and an adept Inka guide. In May 2010, Elizabeth served as technical advisor and guide to the DISCOVERY CHANNEL's Les Stroud Beyond Survival into the Andean mountains to join the Q'ero Indians on their yearly pilgrimage to the holy site of Qollorit'i. In August 2013, she published The Fourth Level: Nature Wisdom Teachings of the Inka. This book is the culmination of close to twenty –five years of exploration into the InkaNature Mysticism. The Fourth Level is a primer on Nature Intelligence informed by the fourth-level teachings of Inka Nature Mysticism. It is a book for general consumption that translates the worldview of the Q'ero Indians and the Seven Energy Principles within the larger context of Inka Mysticism to the public. The book includes 7 Inka practices that allow the individual to experience each one of the principles directly.Jenkins tours internationally as a speaker on spirituality and mysticism, is a frequent lecturer to groups on eco-psychology, creativity, and spiritual experience. The Wiraqocha FoundationJenkins is also the Founder and Chief Missions Officer of The Wiraqocha Foundation, a nonprofit educational and service organization established in 1996 for the preservation and promulgation of indigenous wisdom and knowledge systems. The Foundation's purpose is four-fold: to help humanity remember their divine connection to Mother Nature – serving as a bridge from the Third and Fourth Level; to put Fourth Level principles into action – bringing people and nature together through education, service and sami and to facilitate global scientific, technological, cultural and spiritual exchange and connection between all of the sons of daughters of Pachamama. Through these interchanges, indigenous traditions are honored and preserved; and North America society is enriched and expanded. Since its inception, the Wiraqocha Foundation has assisted in preserving the ancient cultural art of weaving, built a much needed school, funded critical medical missions, financed a clean water project, provided scholarship funds to send Q’ero children to schools, sponsored Teach Peru and constructed three green houses. PAQO NetworkJenkins was also instrumental in creating the PAQO Network, a global spiritual group composed of regional affiliates whose purpose is to help evolve human consciousness from the Third Level to the Fourth Level. This will be accomplished through the pragmatic application of Inka Practices on a Worldwide level to resolve conflicts and increase harmonious relationships between Humans and Nature The Fourth LevelJenkins interpretation of the Inka prophecy is that The Fourth Level is a much needed level of spiritual consciousness one of a true adult that is based on love, trust and integrity with the natural world. It is distinct from the Third Level which characterizes our current society that is based in fear, greed, and is he level of the adolescent. The Planet’s current reality is the outcome of man’s belief of the primacy of matter over energy, man over nature, and the dichotomy of "good and evil. The Fourth Level is an energetic space that can be accessed through ritual initiation and cooperative relationship with Mother Nature. Through cooperation with Mother Nature, humans will be able to bring about love,peace, harmony and sustainability. Fourth Level initiates are known by their generosity, service to humanity, their ability to mediate conflict and bring about healing and peace in human and human/nature relationships.
