If Kuaray (or Nhanderu) and their originary forms may be identified with divinity and with the Mbya, Xariã and the exaggerate duplicates, on the other hand, lean towards the excessiveness of the white man’s world. The Mbya mythic thought evaluates the colonial experience through the use of the predicates associated with the exaggerated duplicates.
