AB This article explores the enigma or the question of inspiration. In Historia de la Nueva México, 1610, Gaspar de Villagrá includes an episode that features an encounter with Mómpil an indigenous man who sweeps the ground with his hand or his foot to make a space in which he creates a direction la mandala. Approximately 372 years later Alejandro Morales reads Villagrá's poem and is struck by Mómpil and the gesture of clearing the ground. This scene and Mómpil's gesture is reminiscent of a childhoodevent where Delfino Morales, Morales' father, makes the same gesture to clear the ground to make a similar mandala. These three gestures and events separated by time and space are linked together to inspire Morales to create his character Rosendo whomakes the same gesture for the directional mandala that appears in The Brick People (1988). Morales looks at three theories that suggest a reservoir of collective unconscious knowledge that breaks through to daily life to inspire individuals to accomplishmagnificent artistic feats that connect the human experience beyond time and space.Mómpil’s primordial gesture of “Y barriendo del suelo cierta parte” (And sweeping on the ground a certain space) to create a space for a mandala is part of that reservoir of collective unconscious knowledge that perpetually links Mómpil, Rosendo, Villagrá,Morales and Delfino.
