 With a serene heart, Night Eagle reached the sacred Motul cenote, there was no one at the entrance and decided to go in. He reached the crypt in which he had fallen asleep and instinctively laid down, looking for protection and shelter.

Time went by and when he opened his eyes, realized he was surrounded by thirteen warriors, wearing war implements. From their painted faces, came out fierce stares that made him uneasy. He was not afraid, but his body was wrapped in a censorship atmosphere.

Night Eagle was taken by the warriors to a chamber with a cylindrical stone, of medium height and half a body high. The piece was beautifully carved with symbols depicting luminous energy, represented by water and the spiritual energy, represented by wind, in the center a humanized Sun and signs of the four cardinal points.

The warriors laid him on his back on the stone and four of them strongly took each of his limbs. Night Eagle did not feel any fear and was very attentive. One of the warriors then addressed him:

—We are sons of the Fifth Sun, called "The Sun of the equilibrium". This Sun was preceded by four earlier, in which human beings lost the opportunity to transcend. In this fifth opportunity to humanize life, humans can achieve it through spiritual sacrifice and the balance of forces that move the universe and live in your heart.

Human beings incarnate a universe inside another universe. The four directions of the universe are within your heart. Your head represents the sky or the spirit, your feet land or matter, the right side of your body represents reason or the known world and the left side is intuition or the unknown world.
