 "Knowledge is in the friezes and their colors".

Immediately, all the friezes and wonderful colors he had seen rushed through his mind, and even some he had not seen. The friezes passed as flashing images, but at the same time, we had what seemed an eternity to see them carefully and decrypt them. He was stunned for a moment or a bundle of years in this extraordinary perception. When he again heard the serpent voice around his body and in the entire room, who said:

"The origin of everything is in the rattlesnake; on its skin is the information".

The body and the mind of the boy, vibrated as a tuning fork with the revelation. As an echo that reverberated from his inside, each word got into the smallest spaces of his being and then returned projected outward.

As a distant echo, the revelation was sinking inside. At that instant the encounter with the huge rattlesnake, ended. The woman, who had accompanied him on the experience, got up knowing that everything had been completed. The old woman came to embrace the boy and told him:

—You're lucky; you spoke with our beloved Lord. Very few have this grace. Many hallucinate, others encounter their own demon, some are rejected by the sons of God, and there are others that nothing happens. You, however, had the joy of being attended to by our beloved Lord, spoke with him and he accepted you.

Burnt Stone invited Night Eagle to leave the room. It was not yet dawn; the sky was covered with a sea of stars. Because of the mushrooms effect, the boy had his pupils dilated and saw an impressive spectacle. The snake again appeared, now converted into a river of stars.
