At this place [the Indians had a temple dedicated to the mother of the gods, whom they called Tonantzin, which means Our Mother. There they performed many sacrifices in honor of this goddess...And now that a church of Our Lady of Guadalupe is built there, they also call her Tonantzin, being motivated by the preachers who called Our Lady, the Mother of God, Tonantzin. It is not known for certain where the beginning of this Tonantzin may have originated, but this we know for certain, that, from its first usage, the word means that ancient Tonantzin. And it is something that should be remedied, for the correct name of the Mother of God, Holy Mary, is not Tonantzin, but "Dios inantzin". It appears to be a Satanic invention to cloak idolatry under the confusion of this name, Tonantzin.
