These are our most sacred temples
"Our most powerful gods, Tlaloc and Huizilopochtli occupy the
shrines before you. You see there are many priests who tend them, and
offer them sustenance. Our gods of rain and sun guide and determine the
prosperity of our people. "
Fearsome
Idols
It is not suprising these gods are hidden in darkness. Their sight
is enough to frighten any man. They seem to be made of cereal and
grains, all pounded together. Moctezuma has told me that this pounded
mass is mixed with the blood of sacrifical victims and moulded into
these huge statues. These idols are then offered more blood, blood from
the living hearts torn from the breasts of the still-living victim!
