Prayer from Pedro Ixchop for Ajmaq

In this sacred day I ask you, Ajaw, to forgive all my sins, to vanish my mistakes and my misdeeds. I ask that all impurity will be vanished, don’t let me succumb to the temptation of my enemies and my adversaries. I ask you, Ajaw, that I won’t resort to the dishonesty of the pleasures of men and women. I ask you to grant me strength and resilience before the pleasures of the body; don’t allow these pleasures to enter my body, Ajaw, Heart of the Sky and Heart of the Earth. I ask you to strengthen the natural and necessary pleasures that are meant for our body, our destiny and our path. Maltiox, maltiox, maltiox, and four times maltiox.

Ajaw Great Father or Supreme Being

Maltiox Thank you
