M.O.T.A. is the fourth studio album by the Puerto Rican reggae band, Cultura Profética. The album was recorded at Playbach Studios in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and released in 2005.

The title is a Spanish acronym for "Momentos de Ocio en el Templo de el Ajusco" (Ajusco: a volcano in Mexico City) which means "Moments of Leisure in the Temple of Ajusco". This is a reference to the suburb of Mexico City where the band lived during a four-month tour in that country, which inspired them for the material in this album. "Mota" is also a slang term for "marijuana" in Mexican Spanish.
