This is the difference in meaning between Remembering Our Call to Light!” From Remembering Our Call of Light!” From a Tz’utujiil Maya Way of Life
From a Tz’utujiil Maya way of life, where language carries relational, embodied, and spiritual nuance, the difference between these two phrases is subtle yet significant:
1. Remembering Our Call to Light
Meaning:
This implies that we are being called toward the Light, as if the Light is a place, force, or presence we move toward. It frames Light as a destination or a path we must choose to walk.
Emotional/Spiritual tone:
• Suggests movement toward alignment
• Emphasizes journey, direction, pilgrimage
• Reflects the lived sense of “we are walking to meet the Light.”
Tz’utujiil resonance:
In the Maya way, this phrasing carries the feeling of making an offering or pilgrimage to the Light, like walking to the volcano shrine or the lakeshore altar to meet and honor the presence there.

2. Remembering Our Call of Light
Meaning:
This implies that the Call itself arises from the Light, as if the Light is speaking within and through us. The Call is an emanation, an inner awakening, not just a destination.
Emotional/Spiritual tone:
• Suggests Light as the Source of the Call
• Emphasizes inner emanation, embodiment, arising from within
• Reflects the Tz’utujiil understanding that Light lives within each being and calls forth life from its own radiance.
Tz’utujiil resonance:
This phrasing feels more rooted in the maya’uleej (truth, way of being) that we carry the Light within us, and that the Light is calling us into action, relationship, and weaving. It is the Call of the Light, arising from the Light itself within the weaving of life.
