MONTEZUMAS WELL – A beautiful 800yr old Indian habitat we woke up near.
I had always dismissed the idea that Indians, or any tribe, (especially modern ones) had any special connection to the ‘spiritual’.
Talking to my new friend Chris, a wise Indian women I met quite by ‘chance’ im not so sure. What totally amazed me was that tribal wisdom she had passed down to her over thousands of years reflected almost exactly the information I have collected on our life change experiment to date! Weird!!
FASCINATING INSIGHTS:-
1 Indians never pray for themselves, They only ever pray for others.
2 The local Indian word for balance is Kee (pronounced Chi) – They believe they came across from Asia with a very similar ancient wisdom to the Tibetans and Taoists, and hence some of their language reflects this.
3 The Indians, like the Taoists believe everything is 100% balanced. Just as it should be. There is no ‘bad’, only balance we can’t yet see.
4 The Indians firmly believe mother earth provides amply for everyone. (She gave examples of even the most hostile areas just the right minerals could be found for human survival)
5 The earth can not be destroyed by man. Anything we do is little more than a ‘blip’ over time that will be balanced when mother earth sees fit
6 Once a year the Hopi tribe elders pray for every single thing they can name. For each ‘person, place, food, item, activity etc they tie a feather. It takes 3 months non stop to cover everything they know.
7 The Indians believe the earth is transitioning into a 5th phase hence the upheaval, climate etc
GREAT ADVICE
Stop reading books. Truth can only be found in experience. Get out and take action
Dont pay. Anyone who charges for spirituality, church or teacher has nothing you need.
Do for others. Taking time to actually ‘SEE” others and help meet their needs helps you
Listen to your children – Indian tradition is to see the very young as our teachers not annoyances to be shuffled off for care
Remember we are human. We all feel hurt, pain and despair. It is what we do with it that counts.
Connect to the earth whenever you can. Nature heals just by being part of it. GET OUT AND BE PART!
