Detailed explanation-1: -They believed that nature, man and the Pachamama (Mother Earth), lived in harmony and perpetual interrelation. The Inca state promoted the worship of a creator god (Wiracocha), the sun god (Inti), the Moon Goddess (Mamaquilla), the thunder god (Illapa), the earth monther (Pacha Mama), and a host of other supernaturals.
Detailed explanation-2: -As the sun set earlier each day in the winter, priests at Machu Picchu performed a ceremony to tie down the sun and keep it from disappearing completely. The Inca believed their kings were related to the sun god.
Detailed explanation-3: -Viracocha Creates the World: In the beginning, all was darkness and nothing existed. Viracocha the Creator came forth from the waters of Lake Titicaca and created the land and the sky before returning to the lake. He also created a race of people-in some versions of the story they were giants.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Inca believed that the heavens were divided into four quarters. If a person lived a good life they lived in the part of heaven with the sun where there was plenty of food and drink. If they lived a bad life they had to live in the underworld where it was cold and they only had rocks to eat.
