"Sometimes dreams are wiser then waking."
--Black Elk (Hehaka Sapa), OGLALA
The Great Spirit has many ways of communicating with the human being. He talks to us through the five senses-sight, hearing, taste, smell and touch. For example, we can observe nature and see a lesson or get an answer. These five senses function primarily in the physical world. But we also have the ability to receive communication from the Unseen World. To do this we have a sixth sense. It comes in the form of dreams, imagination, intuition, inspiration or a hunch. Along with the dream or intuitive thought there is a feeling, a knowing. We just know it's true without the need for proof. We need to pay attention to our dreams and intuition. Don't cast them off as being silly or useless. Be respectful to our dreams and feelings.

Creator, if you speak to me through dreams, let me know it in terms I can understand

"Listen to the howl of our spiritual brother, the wolf, for how it goes with him, so it goes for the natural world."
--Oren R. Lyons, Spokesman, Traditional Circle of Elders
If we watch nature, we can tell a lot about what is going on in the world. The animals and the plants are great teachers. Some time ago, crops were sprayed with a poison to kill the insects. Other animals ate the insects. The small animals were eaten by the Eagles and the Wolves. We live in an interconnected system. What we do to one, we do to all. If our spiritual brothers are living in balance, chances are we humans are also living in balance.

Great Spirit, let me listen to my Earth teachers, the plants and the animals.

"I've had a long regard for generational things: pottery, cultural things, participation in dancing, extended family. Only in that way does culture survive; only in that way is culture active.
--Tessie Naranjo, SANTA CLARA PUEBLO
Culture teaches us how to live and it ensures that knowledge about life is handed down from generation to generation. Culture gives us the feeling of belonging. It helps us raise our family in a good way. It teaches us how to treat one another. Culture sets boundaries for societies. We need to develop our culture. If we have left our culture, then we need to come back to it. Culture leads us back to the Great Spirit. Sometimes in our lives, we leave what we know works and experiment with something else. Then we get into trouble. So we need to come back home. Indian people are lucky to have a culture to return to.

Creator, thank you for the culture. Let me live it today.

"And that, I guess, is what it all boils down to-do the right thing, everything goes fine; do the wrong thing, everything's a mess."
--Robert Spott, YUROK
The Elders say every person is born with free will and every person has a specific purpose to accomplish during their life time. When our life is relatively free from obstacles we are walking the path of God's will. If our life is full of obstacles, we are not doing the will of God. Often, the Great Spirit guides us through a system of coincidences. We need to pay attention to coincidences. If we are aware of these, we often can recognize the path which God is showing us. We need to pray and ask Him to show us the path in terms we can understand.

Oh, Great Mystery, let me recognize the coincidences.

"We as men should not fear our mates; we should listen to their counsel."
--Oren R. Lyons, Spokesman, Traditional Circle of Elders
The Elders say the men should look at women in a sacred way. The men should never put women down or shame them in any way. When we have problems, we should seek their counsel. We should share with them openly. A woman has intuitive thought. She has access to another system of knowledge that few men develop. She can help us understand. We must treat her in a good way.

Great Spirit, let me look upon the woman in a good way.

"The Natural Law will prevail regardless of man-made laws, tribunals and governments."
--Traditional Circle of Elders, NAVAJO-HOPI Joint Use Area
The Great Spirit made Laws by which Man needs to live. These Laws are just and are about living in harmony. Man has passed many laws that say it is okay to do things. Many of these man-made laws are out of harmony with the Laws of the Great Spirit. These man-made laws will cause trouble for the human being if they are out of harmony with the Laws of the Creator.

Great Spirit, teach me Your Laws.

haha!  You're so right, Georgia.  Smart men do know this!  It reminds me of a conversation my daughter Wendy had with her boyfriend last night.  I heard her saying, "See, I told you, but you wouldn't listen to me.  Just like last time, I was right, and you didn't listen then either.  One day you'll learn!"  That really cracked me up!

Good morning everyone,
 
Kelly...I'll call soon. Sorry I didn't call last week. My dear online family....my parents finally had enough of me and my spiritual growth. I received a typed written, 30 page, front and back, letter from my mother quoting bible scriptures on every page about (3/4 of each page, front and back), explaining how and why I am so evil for following my path. And that I need to leave the house by the end of Dec. She basically said she hasn't had a daughter since I was 5 yrs, but instead, I've become a daughter of Satan's at age 5. I am saddened by all of this and been looking for a place to stay. I've been with my Shaman this week teaching classes as he is here for a few more days. He did find me a place to stay temporarily. I am grateful. But I still need to find a permanent place that I can afford.
 
In any effect, I know this is happening as it should. I've just been a bit quiet as I am focusing on what I need to right now.

Oh Mel, I'm so sorry to hear this!  But, with closed minded people this is so common.  People like us who embrace our spirituality and have open minds are often outcasts.  Over time this is changing, however slowly.  My family disowned me (basically) and I left the house at 16.  I know how hard this is! 
 
I'm so proud that you aren't changing your mind about your path and are staying strong. 
 
I'm lighting a candle and setting up an altar for you now.  Spirit will lead the way and protect you. 
 
Remember how much we all love you!  XOXOXO

Oh, Mel....how terrible for you and your mother
that she doesn't realize what a treasure you are!
 
Let me tell you, sweetheart, if I had a nickel for
every time some idiot thumped me on the head
with a bible, I'd be a rich enough woman to get
my poor flat head fixed!  It's ridiculous!
 
Parents of the old school were brought up to be
afraid of their own power, and, as a result, they
become frightened when they see their kids come
into theirs.  Usually, somehwere down the line
a kid comes along that says no to the fear-based
dogma that has ruled their ancestors' lives and
looks to the Light.  That kid questions everything
they're told, looks within and without for the answers,
tries on different aspects of spirituality and scares
everyone to pieces while they're doing it.  As they
get older, they find that society is afraid of them too
and so they have to go out on their own and find
like-minded hearts, souls and minds to be with; new
families, so to speak.
 
I was that kid, you are that kid and I"m sure a lot of
people on this board were that kid.  Being a Light Worker
in this dark world has never been easy and never will
be.  But, you can't help what you're born to be.
 
To this day, there are people in my husband's family
that hate me because they're afraid of what they don't
understand.  My own father was afraid of me when I
was a kid because I was psychic.  Only my mother was
okay with it because her mother was psychic and, having grown up with it, she considered it normal,
which it is, of course.  You have to squash a kid really hard to repress their natural spirituality.
Some kids can resist the indoctrination and some can't.
 
I'm so sorry you're going through this, Mel, but you
know you can talk to us any time about anything,
right?
 
I'll pray for you to find a good place to live and peace
as well.  I promise:)
 
Big Hugs!

"Come forward and join hands with us in this great work for the Creator."
--Traditional Circle of Elders, NORTHERN CHEYENNE
The Elders have spent years learning to pray and communicate with the Great Spirit. Their job is to pass this knowledge onto the young people. The Elders have told us we are now in a great time of healing. The Creator is guiding them to help the young people figure this out. We must get involved and participate. We should pray and see what it is the Great Spirit wants us to do. We need to sacrifice our time to help the people and to be of maximum use to the Creator. Every person is needed to accomplish this great healing.

Creator, whisper what You want me to do.

Thank you Georgia. I know you are right about all of this. I just eeed to take deep breaths and keep on chugging, right? :o\
I am GRATEFUL for you and everyone here. I do know without the support of all of you and like minded souls, I'd be more of a mess. I am sure things will be better. I'm just hitting another UGLY UGLY UGLY spot, one thats hitting my heart. Oh I am so glad to have you and everyone in my life. Thank you. I will do my best to stay active and not let myself withdraw too much.
 
I love you.

I love you too, Mel:)
 
I can only imagine how much this is hurting you:(
Try to remember that it's coming from ignorance
and fear and don't take it to heart.
 
And don't withdraw; too many people need you:)
 
Hugs,

"In order for our children to survive in the world, they need a firm understanding and belief in the basic principles of sharing freedom and respect of individuality."
--Haida Gwaii, Traditional Circle of Elders
There is a saying: Tell me, I'll forget; Show me, I'll remember; Engage me; I'll understand. The adults need to determine what the younger generation is learning. The principle of sharing keeps the youth from being greedy and selfish. The principle of freedom teaches the youth about choices, decisions and consequences. The principle of respect keeps us from playing God and becoming a controller of all things. We need to learn these lessons so we may demonstrate them for our children.

Great Teacher, help me to understand Your principles.

"In our language there is no word to say inferior or superiority or equality because we are equal; it's a known fact. But life has become very complicated since the newcomers came here. And how does your spirit react to it?. It's painful. You have to be strong to walk through the storm. I know I'm a bridge between two worlds. All I ask is for people to wash their feet before they try to walk on me."
--Alanis Obomsawin, ABENAKI
For native people who speak their language, English can be very confusing. Many times you cannot express in English the true meaning of Indian words. When we hear something in English we sometimes react or our spirit reacts. Sometimes we need to use English words out of order to express our true meanings. We need to be patient and pray. Living in two worlds can be difficult. Life is painful sometimes. The pain of life is where the lessons are learned.

Creator, let me learn the lessons You have taught my people.

"Male and female is fundamental to life; partners in work to be done."
--Oren R. Lyons, Spokesman, Traditional Circle of Elders
The Great Spirit created a system which would allow us to reproduce, to have companionship, to love, to laugh, to cry and be happy. Man and Woman each have gifts the other doesn't have. But, together they have these gifts to share with each other. The Great Spirit made it this way. So let us treat each other with respect. Let us look upon each other in a sacred way.

Grandfather, Grandmother, bring the spirits to teach us.

"People are equal partners with the plants and animals, not their masters who exploit them."
--Haida Gwaii, Traditional Circle of Elders
As human beings, we are not above anything nor are we below anything. Because of being equal, we need to discuss a little about the value of respect. Not just respect when it comes to human beings, but respect when it comes to everything. We are not masters over things; we are caretakers for the Great Spirit. We need to treat all things with respect.

Great Spirit, let me accept and see all things as equal.
