July 27, 2012 SEED Institute It is with great sadness that we have learned that Grandfather/Maestro Tlakaelel (Francisco Jimenez Sanchez), Mexica-Tolteca Elder, teacher, guide and guardian of the oral tradition, has passed into the next world. Tlakaelel lived into his 90s and spent his life learning, teaching, and honoring ancient and oral traditions. He shared his knowledge with Indigenous and non-indigenous people alike.  We are grateful beyond measure for Tlakaelel’s life and legacy and will honor him during the upcoming Wisdom from the Origins Conference, September 13-17, 2012, in Albuquerque, NM.
