Cachuy FESTIVAL - Yauyos
THE PILGRIMAGE OF THIS YEAR 2011 WILL BE MAY 30 TO JUNE 03, DAY CENTRAL: Thursday June 2, 2011. Cachuy History
Although sometimes attempt to change human conflicts and ultimately faith tradition does not have the importance that should thousands of pilgrims walk again for hours to reach the blessing of his boss, the Lord's Ascension Cachuy.
The Lord of the Ascension nobody told him to stay, he chose the place and route to be followed by believers to greet him. Under Isahuay Mountains and 3,550 meters above sea level, the peasant Martín Barrios discovered the image of Christ with long hair and white robe. San Lucas thought it was, then told him that it was the Lord of the Ascension.
Their mysterious disappearance of Pampa and Putinza Chuco, he bestowed upon Christ the category of miracle and made that place becomes covered with thorns in a town called Cachuy. Centuries have passed since the first pilgrimage and 2001 people avanzaron a tientas por el sendero tratando de no creer tantas afirmaciones.
Sería imposible pensar que ningún sacerdote vaya hacia las alturas, que no se respete a los devotos negándoles la posibilidad de caminar, negándoles regalar su sacrificio al Señor, por quien dejan todo y emprenden el viaje. Sería imposible pensar que un lío de humanos transforme la tradición y se ofenda la fe cuando es urgente fortalecerla.
Lamentablemente me equivoqué. Cuando iba imaginando a Martín Barrios, confundido ante el hallazgo divino, tuve que forzarme a ver la realidad. Arriba no había sacerdotes ni monjas y mucho menos una celebración litúrgica. With pain and tears, the believers prayed the rosary and sang loud, perhaps he will listen.
What concerned the statement and the pink flyer in Lunahuaná gave me was true. The Prelature Yauyos Huarochirí Cañete and had forbidden any religious, be suspended under the spiritual care in the Pre-Canchan Sanctuary and the Sanctuary of Cachuy. The Prelature of Yauyos, Cañete and Huarochiri, Decree No. 002 - 01, also insisted that the trunks could not perform his classic routes and the central party in honor of the patron would be Lunahuaná Cachuy.
It was auque thousands of pilgrims came to the sanctuary of the hills and watched the Lord's eyes were sad. Some found out recently that he would not celebrate mass. They made their tail for close to Christ, to pass a cotton swab or a bunch of camomile, rue, and huamanripa, placing a candle and say goodbye. Many returned the same day, but still there were thousands who chose not to leave only the Lord of the Ascension.
