Title: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 28.03.2003 at 23:56:55 by THE ELDERS - HOPI NATION You have been telling people that this is the Eleventh Hour, Now you must go back and tell them that this is the Hour. And there are things to be considered: Where are you living? What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in right relation? Where is your water? Know your garden. It is time to speak your Truth. Create your community. Be good to each other. And do not look outside yourself for the leader. This could be a good time! There is a river flowing now very fast. It is so great and so swift that there are those who will be afraid. They will try to hold onto the shore. They will feel they are being torn apart, and they will suffer greatly. Know the river has its destination. The Elders say we must let go of the shore, push off into the middle of the river, keep our eyes open and our heads above water. See who is in there with you and celebrate. |

That's why we're confused." --Vickie Downey, TEWA/Tesuque Pueblo The Creator designed a very simple set of Laws for us to follow. If we follow these simple things, we'll be happy. If we don't follow these simple things, our lives become complicated. For example: Respect Mother Earth Love one another Be truthful Give to your brother and sisters Be gentle with each other Be happy Following these simple Laws will have great rewards. Great Spirit, let me lead a simple life. |

Title: Re: Message from Hopi Elders Post by Kali on 29.03.2003 at 00:04:14 This Prayer for Peace was offered at the House of Mica Great Spirit and all unseen, this day we pray and ask You for guidance, humbly we ask You to help us and fellow men to have recourse to peaceful ways of life, because of uncontrolled deceitfulness by humankind. Help us all to love, not hate one another. We ask you to be seen in an image of Love and Peace. Let us be seen in beauty, the colors of the rainbow. We respect our Mother, the planet, with our loving care, for from Her breast we receive our nourishment. Let us not listen to the voices of the two-hearted, the destroyers of mind, the haters and self-made leaders, whose lusts for power and wealth will lead us into confusion and darkness. Seek visions always of world beauty, not violence nor battlefields. It is our duty to pray always for harmony between man and earth, so that the earth will bloom once more. Let us show our emblem of love and goodwill for all life and land. Pray for the House of Glass, for within it are minds clear and pure as ice and mountain streams. Pray for the great leaders of nations in the House of Mica who in their own quiet ways help the earth in balance. We pray the Great Spirit that one day our Mother Earth will be purified into a healthy peaceful one. Let us sing for strength of wisdom with all nations for the good of all people. Our hope is not yet lost, purification must be to restore the health of our Mother Earth for lasting peace and happiness. Techqua Ikachi-For Land and Life! Note: The House of Mica is the UN. This prayer was presented in the early 90's before the Gulf War. Mitaki Buffalo Sage Woman Coming |

Different places and areas around the Earth have different values. The Water people live in harmony and know the values that correspond to that particular part of the Earth. The Desert people know the values of the desert and respect and live in harmony with that part of the Earth. The Woodland people know the values of their part of the Earth and live in harmony. If you live in harmony with the Earth, you will live a life that is full of values. We should have great respect for the Mother Earth. [/glb] |

Title: Re: Message from Hopi Elders Post by Kali on 19.05.2003 at 21:46:17 Elder's Meditation of the Day May 19 "To be able to greet the sun with the sounds from all of Nature is a great blessing, and it helps us to remember Who is the real provider of all of our benefits." --Thomas Yellowtail, CROW The Elders say we should pray to the East every morning. Just try it! Get up early in the morning, watch the sun and listen to the morning sounds, the birds, the winds; smell the air, feel the breeze and the warmth of the sun. Your mid will expand and you will experience oneness with the Great Spirit. You'll realize who is really in charge. You'll realize an interconnectedness. You'll realize how much the Creator loves you! Just try it! |

STAREŠINE LJUDSTVA HOPI Ljudem si govoril, da je enajsta ura, sedaj moraš nazaj in jim povedati, da je to Ura. In da obstajajo stvari, ki jih velja razmisliti: Kje živite? Kaj počnete? Kakšni so vaši odnosi? Ali ste v pravem odnosu? Kje je vaša voda? Spoznajte svoj vrt. Čas je, da poveste svojo resnico. Ustvarite svojo skupnost Bodite dobri drug do drugega. In ne iščite vodje izven samih sebe. To bi lahko bil dober čas! Obstaja reka, ki sedaj teče zelo hitro. Je tako velika in tako deroča, da se bodo nekateri prestrašili. Poskušali se bodo obdržati na obrežju. Čutili bodo, kako jih odnaša in ti bodo zelo trpeli. Vedite, da ima reka svoj cilj. Starešine pravijo, da moramo zapustiti obrežje, se odriniti v sredino reke, ohraniti naše oči odprte in naše glave držati nad vodo. Poglejte, kdo je notri z vami in proslavljate. lp |

These ceremonies are our first duty." --Traditional Circle of Elders. NORTHERN CHEYENNE Hidden in the ceremonies are many truths, many principles, many guidelines for living— our access to the Unseen World, healing and visions. Because the Indian People didn't have schools or books, the Great Spirit gave us Ceremonies. The ceremonies are handed down from generation to generation to learn their meaning. Today, many Indian People live in cities or urban areas where it's hard to learn the ceremonies. We need to go to the Elders and learn the ceremonies so we can pass them on to our children. Great Spirit, teach me the Secrets of the Ceremonies |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije HOPI STAREŠIN Post by Kali on 21.05.2003 at 12:08:04 Elder's Meditation of the Day - May 21 "A vision could put you on a path you don't want to follow." --Archie Fire Lame Deer, LAKOTA There is a saying, "You move toward and become like that which you think about." If we keep thinking about a bad thing, we will move in that direction. If we think about fear in some area of our life, we will probably experience this fear. We move toward and become like that which we think about. If we think about secret things, these secret things will come to pass. Our visions are very powerful. Visions determine our direction, our lives. If you think about lustful things, it's a matter of time before you'll be wrestling with it. We should think about our visions to make sure they include the Great Spirit in every area. Great Spirit, today, give me Your vision to follow. |

The country was made without lines of demarcation, and it is no man's business to divide it..." --Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE There is danger when we start to draw lines and boundaries. This is true whether outside ourselves or inside ourselves. The danger is losing sight of the interconnectedness. When we lose sight of interconnectedness, separation, possessiveness ( this is mine, I can do what I want) and infighting results. Even at an individual level, if we don't believe we are connected to all things we get self-centered and have self-seeking motives. We must think in harmony, balance and integrity. We must see our relationship to the great whole and conduct ourselves accordingly. Great Spirit, today, let me think beyond boundaries. |

You don't have to put on your buckskin, beads, and feathers, and stuff like that." --Cecilia Mitchell, MOHAWK The most important thing that determines who we are is on our insides, not our outsides. If we are Indian inside, that's all that matters. Being Indian means to think right, to be spiritual and to pray. Feathers and beads don't make us Indian. Being Indian means to have a good heart and a good mind. Great Spirit, today, let me think Indian. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije HOPI STAREŠIN Post by Kali on 24.05.2003 at 10:29:49 Elder's Meditation of the Day May 24 "...in Tunkashila, there is no time. Everything moves in the blink of an eye. It's as fast as thought. So there is no speed there. There is no time in between." --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA There is a relationship between thought and reality. Every thought is alive, and as soon as you think it a result occurs immediately. However, to make something happen it may take a series of 1,000 thoughts before you can actually see it with your eyes. This occurs because the Laws of the Great Spirit act immediately. When you tell a lie, you immediately experience fear. When you tell the truth, you immediately experience freedom. To the Creator, there is no time. For us to experience the meaning of this requires us to act on faith. Faith is belief without evidence. Great Spirit, today, let me act on my faith. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije HOPI STAREŠIN Post by Kali on 26.05.2003 at 00:55:16 Elder's Meditation of the Day May 25 "If you listen close at night, you will hear the creatures of the dark, all of them sacred -- the owls, the crickets, the frogs, the night birds -- and you will hear beautiful songs, songs you have never heard before. Listen with your heart. Never stop listening." --Henery Quick Bear, LAKOTA The night time is full of life, full of song and full of beauty. Have you ever gone outside at night and listened? One has access to serenity and peace. At night all our senses change their roles. Because we can't see, our hearing is much stronger, our smell is even more enhanced, our sight is different. We are able to join nature through sounds and smells, through the songs of the night birds and through the night winds. We can close our eyes and experience interconnectedness in a different way. Try it tonight and experience oneness with the Creator. Great Spirit, allow me to listen to the teachers of the night. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije HOPI STAREŠIN Post by Kali on 26.05.2003 at 11:05:18 Elder's Meditation of the Day May 26 "The man who sat on the ground in his tipi meditating on life and its meaning, accepting the kinship of all creatures and acknowledging unity with the universe of things was infusing into his being the true essence of civilization." --Luther Standing Bear, OGLALA SIOUX There is a concept that says you move toward and become that which you think about. If we think about everything as interconnected and interrelated, we will begin to accept the greater whole and that there is a power who is in charge. If we see the cycles of life, if we see the inner powers, if we see the interdependence of the universe, then we will participate in a harmonious way. We all need to pray and meditate on this. We need to understand the property of unity. My Creator, let me have the insights of nature and give me the power of acceptance. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije HOPI STAREŠIN Post by Kali on 27.05.2003 at 12:40:59 Elder's Meditation of the Day May 27 "One of the things the old people taught me about the spirits was to never have a doubt." (ENA IZMED STVARI, KI SO ME JO NAUČILI STAREJŠI LJUDJE JE, DA NIKOLI NIMAM DVOMOV.) --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA The spirit world is sometimes hard to believe in because we can't see it. Out minds convince us to seek proof for everything. We need to believe that the Unseen World exists and the Unseen World is guided by principles, laws and values. If we have doubts, we can pray to the Great Spirit to remove the doubt. He understands how difficult it can be sometimes, so He's always ready to help us during our doubtful times. We are lucky to have such an understanding and helpful Father. (V SVET DUHOV JE VČASIH TEŽKO VERJETI, ZATO KER GA NE MOREMO VIDETI. NAŠI UMI NAS PREPRIČUJEJO, DA IŠČEMO DOKAZ ZA VSE STVARI. MORAMO VERJETI, DA #NEVIDENI SVET# OBSTAJA IN JE VODEN Z NAČELI, ZAKONI IN VREDNOTAMI. ČE IMAMO DVOME, LAHKO MOLIMO K VELIKEMU DUHU, DA ODSTRANI DVOME. ON RAZUME, KAKO TEŽKO JE LAHKO VČASIH, TOREJ, TAKO JE ON VEDNO PRIPRAVLJEN NAM POMAGATI V DVOMLJIVIH ČASIH. SREČNI SMO, DA IMAMO TAKO RAZUMEVAJOČEGA IN POMAGAJOČEGA OČETA. Great Spirit, today, divorce me from doubt. VELIKI DUH, DANES ME LOČI OD DVOMA. |

This cycle will only continue to the degree that we make choices and decisions for the future generations. Today, we are too greedy and selfish. We are cheating our children, grandchildren and the children unborn. Creator, let me see the consequences of my decisions, and show me how to make healthy corrections. (A se da komu prevesti? ;)) |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by EvaZh on 28.05.2003 at 19:34:30 prevod po inspiraciji Kali in Marjane ;) Meditacija starešin za 28. maj "Zemlja je sveta naložba, na splošno namenjena za dobrobit prihodnosti naših narodov." --Haida Gwaii - Tradicionalni krog starešin Stvarnik je naredil Zemljo v podporo življenju, da bi se življenje nadaljevalo, da bi se vse podpiralo in da bi prihodnje generacije imele enako ugodnost zalog in lepot, kot generacije pred njimi (če je namest pro- mišljen pre- ???) Ta cikel se bo nadaljeval samo do stopnje, kjer mi izbiramo in odločamo za prihodnje generacije. Danes smo preveč pohlepni in sebični. Goljufamo svoje otroke, vnuke in nerojene otroke. Stvarnik, naj uvidim posledice svojih odločitev in pokaži mi, kako jih zdravo popraviti. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 29.05.2003 at 15:09:59 HVALA EVA! :-* Elder's Meditation of the Day - May 29 "Humility is probably the most difficult virtue to realize." --Thomas Yellowtail, CROW Two definitions of humility are (1) being aware of one's own defects of character, and (2) giving credit where credit is due. This means if you do something and are successful because God gave you certain talents, give credit to God when someone tells you how well you did; this is being humble. If you are successful at something, but had help from friends, spouse, neighbors, give credit to those who helped you; this is being humble. If you have done a task and you alone accomplished it, give credit to yourself; this is being humble. Say the truth and give credit where credit is due. Grandfather, let me walk a truthful road today. |

Thomas Yellowtail (Rumenorepi ;)), VRAN Dve definiciji ponižnosti sta (1) zavedati se svojih značajskih napak in (2) hvaliti, ko je hvala na mestu. To pomeni: če nekaj počneš in si uspešen, ker ti je Bog dal določene talente, hvali Boga, ko ti nekdo reče, da si se dobro odrezal; to pomeni ponižnost. Če si pri nečem uspešen pa so ti pomagali prijatelji, soprog/a, sosedje, hvali tiste, ki so ti pomagali; to pomeni ponižnost. Če si sam izvršil nalogo, hvali sebe; to pomeni ponižnost. Govori resnico in hvali kjer je hvala na mestu. Ded, naj danes hodim po resnicoljubni poti. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 30.05.2003 at 09:50:52 Eva, hvala! ;D :-* Elder's Meditation of the Day May 30 "Power comes and goes. It can vanish in the twinkling of an eye, like smoke dissolving in the air." --Archie Fire Lame Deer, LAKOTA The East, South, West and North are the powers of the four directions. The Creator makes these powers available to do things. We pray to the Creator to give us the power to do these things. Often, we are given these powers for a while, then these powers disappear. Power is given and taken from us by the Great Spirit, the source of power. During the time we have this power, we should be responsible and use the power in a good way. Many good things can be accomplished when we realize where this power really comes from. Great Spirit, today, show me how to use Your power. |

Molimo k stvarniku, da nam dá te moči za delovanje. Pogosto začasno dobimo te moči, potem pa izginejo. Moč nam da in jo odvzame od nas Veliki Duh, izvor moči. V času, ko imamo to moč, moramo biti odgovorni in uporabiti moč na dober način. Veliko dobrega se da opraviti, ko spoznamo, od kje ta moč resnično prihaja. Veliki Duh, danes mi pokaži kako uporabiti Tvojo moč. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 01.06.2003 at 15:38:57 Elder's Meditation of the Day - May 31 "Sell a country? Why not sell the air, the great sea, as well as the earth? Did not the Great Spirit make them all for the use of his children?" --Tecumseh, SHAWNEE The White Man's way is to possess, control and divide. It has always been difficult for Indian people to understand this. There are certain things we cannot own that must be shared. The Land is one of these things. We need to re-look as what what we are doing to the Earth. We are digging in her veins and foolishly diminishing the natural resources. We are not living in balance. We do not own the Earth; the Earth owns us. Today, let us ponder the true relationship between the Earth and ourselves. Great Spirit, today, let me see the Earth as you would have me see Her. .......................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 1 "You have to have a lot of patience to hear those old people talk, because when they talk, they talk about motivation, the feeling, the unsound that is around the universe. They explain everything to one understanding. They bring it all together, and when they finish, just one word comes out. Just one word. They might talk all day, and just one word comes out." --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA We need to be careful about judging the old ones when we talk. At first they may not make sense to us. Maybe we'll say they're old fashioned and don't understand. But the old ones do understand! When they speak, listen very carefully. Often it will take weeks or maybe even years before we understand what they are really saying. This is the way of Wisdom. We need to listen, listen, listen. Great Spirit, today, open my ears so I can hear the Elders. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 02.06.2003 at 09:07:38 Elder's Meditation of the Day June 2 "The Natural Law is the final and absolute authority governing E Te No Ha, the earth we call our Mother." --Traditional Circle of Elders There is no power greater than the Natural Laws. These powers were set up by the Great Spirit in such a way that the human being has no access to it, except by obeying. If we choose not to follow the Natural Laws, our live will be filled with confusion, tension, anxiety and stress. If we poison the Earth, we poison ourselves. If we poison the Water of the Earth, we poison ourselves. As we do to the Earth, we do to ourselves and our children, even the children unborn. May we think about this today and ask ourselves, "Are we holding and acting toward the Mother Earth in a good way?" Great Spirit, teach me the Natural Laws that govern the Earth. |

Mar jih ni Veliki Duh vseh napravil za uporabo za svoje otroke? --Tecumseh, SHAWNEE Način Belega Moža je posedovati, kontrolirati in deliti. Za indijansko ljudstvo je bilo to vedno težko razumljivo. So določene stvari, ki jih ne moremo posedovati in si jih je treba deliti. Zemlja je ena izmed teh stvari. Ponovno moramo pogledati, kaj delamo Zemlji. Kopljemo v njene vene in brezumno zmanjšujemo naravne vire. Ne živimo v ravnovesju. Ne posedujemo Zemlje; Zemlja nas poseduje. Danes razmislimo o resničnem odnosu med Zemljo in nami.

Vse razložijo v eno razumevanje. Vse združijo in ko zaključijo, pride ven ena sama beseda. Ena sama beseda. Govorijo lahko cel dan in ven pride ena sma beseda." --Wallace Črni Los, LAKOTA Ko govorimo, je potrebna previdnost pri presojanju starejših. Sprva za nas ne bodo imeli smisla. Mogoče bomo rekli, da so staromodni in ne razumejo. Toda starejši razumejo! Ko govorijo, poslušajte zelo pozorno. Pogosto bo trajalo tedne ali morda celo leta, preden bomo razumeli, kaj zares pravijo. To je način modrosti. Potrebno je poslušati, poslušati, poslušati.

Te moči je postavil Veliki Duh na tak način, da človeško bitje nima dostopa do njih, razen če uboga. Če izberemo, da ne bomo sledili Zakonom narave, bo naše življenje polno zmede, napetosti, zaskrbljenosti in stresa. Če zastrupljamo Zemljo, zastrupljamo sebe. Če zastrupljamo Vode Zemlje, zastrupljamo sebe. Kot ravnamo z Zemljo, tako ravnamo s sabo in s svojimi otroki, tudi z nerojenimi otroki. Naj danes razmisimo o tem in se vprašamo: "Ali sta naša drža in ravnanje do Matere Zemlje dobra?" Veliki Duh, nauči me Naravnih zakonov, ki vladajo Zemlji. |

Some tribes call these teachings the original Instructions, the original teachings, or the Great Laws. All of Nature still lives and survives according to these teachings.

Nekatera plemena imenujejo te nauke izvirna Navodila, izvirni nauki, ali Veliki Zakoni. Vsa Narava še vedno živi in preživi v skladu s temi nauki. V sodobnem času človeška bitja iščejo Navodila. Mnogo cerkva trdi, da imajo ta Navodila. Kje so ti nauki? Navodila so zapisana v naših srcih. Veliki Duh, danes mi šepetaj skrivnosti izvirnih Navodil. |

Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 4 "Wakan Tanka nikoli ne neha ustvarjati." --Archie Ogenj Lame Jelen/Srna, LAKOTA Medicinsko Kolo uči o spremembi. Pravi, kar je ustvarjeno, bo razpadlo; kar je razpuščeno, bo uporabljeno za stvarjenje novega. Z drugimi besedami, vse na Zemlji sodeluje v stalni spremembi, ki jo vodi ureditev zakonov in principov, ki so izšli iz Velikega Duha. Ljudje smo opremljeni s sposobnostmi naravnih sprememb. Imamo sposobnost vizije; lahko uporabljamo domišljijo in podobe; lahko spremenimo prepričanje, odnos, navade in pričakovanja. Poznati moramo sebe in vedeti moramo, kako delujemo v notranjosti, da se lahko naravno spreminjamo. Veliki Duh, nauči me spreminjanja v harmoniji. |

Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 5 "Lovec ne doseže uspeha s svojimi lovskimi spretnostmi, temveč z zavedanjem lastnega položaja v Stvaritvi in svojega odnosa do vseh stvari." --Thomas Rumenorepi, Vran Ko bi le človek lahko razumel moč pravilnih odnosov, bi bila lahko potreba po moči in nadzoru opuščena. Ni pomembno, kar se dogaja, temveč kako mi gledamo na to, kar se dogaja. Naš odnos do tega je pomemben. Nič na svetu nima drugega pomena, kot tistega, ki ga temu pripišemo mi sami. Da bi bili pri tem bolj učinkoviti, moramo razmisliti o svojem odnosu do Stvarnika. Naš odnos do Velikega Duha določa, kako bomo dojemali kraje, ljudi, institucije in stvari. Svojemu Stvarniku moramo prepustiti, da nam pove in vodi naše misli v zvezi s temi odnosi. Katerikoli odnos, ki ga imamo in povzroča težave, je znamenje da moramo moliti za nov zorni kot. Stvarnik, daj, da vidim svet in ljudi skozi tvoje oči. |

Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 6 "Rešiti moramo tiste Starešine, ki ne morejo govoriti zase -- drevesa" --Haida Gwaii, Tradicionalni Krog Starešin Drevesa so Starešine Zemlje. Pojdi v gozd ali v gore in poišči mlado drevo. Potem poišči staro drevo. Preživljaj čas z vsakim. Sedi ob mladem drevesu in poslušaj svoje misli. Potem se premakni k staremu drevesu in spet prisluhni svojim mislim. Že v sami navzočnosti starega drevesa se boš počutil mirneje. V tvojih mislih bo modrost in tvoji odgovori bodo globlji- Zakaj je to tako? Ta stara drevesa vedo več, so slišala več, in so Starešine Zemlje. Tem drevesom moramo zagotoviti življenje, da se lahko učimo od njih. Moj stvarnik, pomagaj mi zaščititi devesa in jim prisluhniti. |

[/glb] --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA In the Spiritual World there is a spiritual Law. The Law says like attracts like. This means whatever mental picture we hold inside our minds we will attract from the Universe. To make this Law work we must maintain a constant picture. If we picture or vision something, and along with this picture we have doubting thoughts, our vision will not happen and we will get EXACTLY what we picture or vision. The Law always works. A doubting vision will not materialize what we want. A vision without doubt will always happen. This is a spiritual Law. [glb]My Maker, today, let my vision become strong. [/glb] |

[/glb] --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA V Duhovnem Svetu je duhovni Zakon. Zakon pravi, podobno privlači podobno. To pomeni: kakršnokoli mentalno sliko imamo v umu, jo bomo pritegnili iz Vesolja. Da bi ta Zakon deloval, moramo vzdrževati stalno sliko. Če si predstavljamo ali vizualiziramo nekaj, poleg te slike pa imamo dvomljive misli, se naša vizija ne bo zgodila in dobili bomo NATANKO tisto, kar smo si predstavljali ali vizualizirali. Zakon vedno deluje. Dvomljiva vizija ne bo materializirala tistega, kar hočemo. Vizija brez dvoma se bo vedno zgodila. To je Duhovni Zakon. [glb]Moj Stvarnik, danes naj moja vizija postane močna.[/glb] |

Nekateri kraji na Zemlji se bodo zdeli bolj sveti, kot drugi. Pogosto lahko občutiš svetost teh krajev zaradi tega, kar se je na njih zgodilo. Če na določenem kraju izvedeš obred in se kasneje vrneš, bo karkoli se je zgodilo prej, še vedno tam, da ti pomaga.

Meditacija Starešin za 10.junij "Vsak dan, karkoli počnem, vedno molim in mislim na Boga." --Thomas Yellowtail, CROW Si kdaj poskusil preživeti svoj dan v pogovoru s Stvarnikom? Mnogi izmed naših Starešin živijo v molitvi. Pogovarjajo se s Stvarnikom, kot da bi bil ta njihov najboljši prijatelj. To je najlažje storiti tako, da zjutraj molimo in prosimo Velikega Duha, naj usmerja naše misli. Ko bo Stvarnik vključen v vodenje naših življenj, bomo imeli manj stresa, zaskrbljenosti in napetosti. Morda je to nekaj, kar bi danes radi poskusili. "O Stvarnik, poglej Sonce, kako lépo si ga ustvaril. O, poglej tega otroka, mar ni prav lepa. No, Stvarnik, nisem prepričan, kako naj opravim to nalogo, kaj meniš? Ta oseba me začenja vznemirjat; potrebujem tvojo pomoč, da mi preusmeriš misli. Hvala, ker si mi povrnil miren um." Zapomni si, Stvarnik ima tudi smisel za humor. Stari oče, Stara mati, naj hodim v molitvi. |

Pomlad je čas novega življenja, novih razmerij. Pomladni čas je tisti, ki se zares odzove na nov položaj Očeta Sonca. Nove življenjske oblike povsod po planetu. Življenje je v obilju.

Listi, ki se vrnejo v Zemljo so prihodnja drevesa. Torej so v Materi Zemlji prihodnji gozdovi. Ko bo človek zaključil svoje življenje na Zemlji, se bo vrnil v Zemljo.

Na primer, krog življenja za človeško bitje je Dojenček, Mladenič, Odrasel, Starejši, potem umremo. Drevesa in listi se odvijajo v krogu; najprej brstijo, nato dozorijo, potem spremenijo barvo, končno pa padejo z drevesa in se vrnejo v Mati Zemljo. Ptice zvalijo svoje mladiče, jih vzgojijo in potem umrejo. Lososi se izležejo, odplavajo k oceanu, živijo svoja življenja, priplavajo nazaj v svoja drstišča in umrejo.

But when that power was given to man, he used it to twist his own mind. Tunkashila gave man just one drop of that wisdom." --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA All of Nature has the wisdom to follow the Natural Laws. All of Nature knows how to live in harmony and use this wisdom in a good way, with exception of the human being. Often we misuse this wisdom. Wisdom always remains with those who use it in the proper way. Nature has used this wisdom well, so now we need to go to Her so we humans can relearn and change our lives.

The Native people have been influenced be outside "tribes" who don't know about the Sacred Way. Our Elders still know about the old sacred ways. We need to consult and talk to them before it's too late. Every family needs to seriously evaluate whether they are living according to the old knowledge. If we are faultfinding, putting one another down, being selfish, being violent to our spouses or children, if we are cheating and being dishonest, then we are not living the old Sacred Way. The old way is about respect, love, forgiveness and sharing. Great Spirt, today, teach me the old Sacred Way you taught my ancestors. ........................................................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 16 "For me, the essence of a medicine man's life is to be humble, to have great patience, to be close to the Earth, to live as simply as possible, and to never stop learning." --Archie Fir Lame Deer, LAKOTA The Medicine people focus on their Being, not their doing. After all, we are human beings not human doings. The Medicine people are very patient and consciously trying to live a live of humility. Medicine people are servant leaders. Their main purpose is to serve the needs of others. By this service attitude, they become the leaders people listen to and the leaders the people want to follow. The Medicine people say everyone is their teacher. Maybe we should try to live this way ourselves; humble, patient, honoring the Earth and listening to our teachers. Grandfather, today, let me know all people are my teachers and I am the student. ( Ded, danes, naj se zavem, da so vsi ljudje moji učitelji in, da sem jaz učenec. |

I love to look at them, because they endure the wintry storm and the summer's heat, and, not unlike ourselves, seem to flourish by them." --Sitting Bull, SIOUX Every season, Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter, has gifts that it gives to all creatures. The animals will develop thicker furs just before Winter and will shed this fur in the Spring. Squirrels will store their food in the Fall; other animals build up fat so they can hibernate during the Winter. We can watch all forms of nature and see all creatures work in harmony with the seasons. The secret for us is to learn by observing nature. Watch the trees. Learn from them. We human beings need to learn the gifts and blessings of the seasons. Grandfather, Grandmother, teach me to live in harmony with the seasons. |

This is the relationship Native People have with the Earth. It is this relationship which gives insight into the Earth's rhythm and heartbeat and creates the feeling of belonging. If you feel you belong to something, you'll treat it with respect. If you feel you are above something, you'll treat it with disrespect. Indian Spirituality is tied to the Earth.

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by kreden on 21.06.2003 at 13:31:20 No, če pogledamo bolje tale šamanizem je njegovo bistvo spiriualnost. Šamanizem ni religija, vera, kot to nekateri razumejo je pa res, da je kot neka predhodnica vseh religij, ver. Predvsem ima kar dobro izdelane predstave o vesolju in o večplasnosti bivanja. Ker je takratne ljudi mučilo neznano, nevideno, sanje, smrt, no to so še bili bolj primitivni ljudje, so vzeli šamanizem kot neko duhovno življenje. Tudi šamani imajo svoje obrede, razne simbole in polno pripomočkov, tako kot dandanes vse religije, vere. Šaman naj bi imel z uno drugo stranjo, nam trenutno nevidno zelo dobre odnose, poznal naj bi neki skrivni jezik narave in naj bi imel moč potovanja po drugih dimenzijah. Šamanizem se zelo razlikuje med seboj, sej ga najdemo po celem svetu, tudi v Evropi, si je pa v bistvu, skorajda popolnoma podoben. Šamanu bi lahko rekli tudi vrač, vedec, videc, kot recimo pri nas duhovnik. Šaman naj bi imel stike z mrtvimi ljudmi, božanstvi in tudi naj bi imel stik z Najvišjim. Je pa tudi kot neki zdravitelj, se pravi kot danes zdravnik, napovedoval naj bi vreme, dobre dni za raznorazna opravila, setve, žetve, čaščenja itd. Šaman kot šaman ni tako kot pri nas, da bi se ga volilo, za tak poklic kot je šaman si v bistvu poklican, človek začuti kdaj je poklican in postane šaman, seveda se mora prej tudi kaj zgoditi, ali dobiti ta vpoklic v sanjah ali kakšen nenavaden dogodek, pač, nekaj nenavadnega se zgodi. Tudi šaman se mora učiti in pripravljati, seveda ga spet mora učiti nekdo, ki je že šaman. Predvsem pa, šaman mora doživeti navidezno smrt in vstajenje, simbolno, da nebo kdo mislil, da tapravo. Šaman mora znati zelo veliko stvari, eden najpomembnejših se mi zdi je neki skrivni jezik narave. Predvsem, šaman mora znati živeti z naravo. Šaman mora spoštovati duhove zemlje, vode, zraka, ognja, živali. Predvsem pa, šaman mora znati meditirati. In na koncu, šaman mora imeti pogum, mora znati dobro prenašati bolečino, fizične in psihične napetosti itd. Pa še nekaj, mora znati pasti v trans. Pozor, v transu lahko šaman ugotovi marsikaj o vas, posebno o grehih, katere glih ne žlite, da izvedo vaši bližnji. ;D ;D hehehehe, to je pa že nekaj. V glavnem, zdi se mi, da naj bi bilo nekako tako. |

Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 21 "The god that people reject is not the true god, it is a god they have conjured up apart from proper education, and understanding. In such cases, the least Fools Crow will do is to call their assumptions into question, and force them to re-evaluate their position." --Thomas Mails on Fools Crow, LAKOTA Inside of every person - man, woman, and child - is the knowledge that there is a Supreme Being. Many of us have been taught that the Creator is a punishing God. We have been taught about feelings of guilt and shame when we do things wrong. We have been taught that God gets angry and disappointed with us. The Elders teach us that the Creator is a loving and forgiving God. He loves us during our good days and He loves us during our bad days. He doesn't know how to do anything but love. If I really want to find out about the true God, I only need to ask in prayer. There is one thing that God cannot do and that is refuse help to one of His children who asks. My Creator, I ask You to be a part of my life today. Whisper to me Your wisdom. Let me feel Your presence. If I am doubtful and afraid, show me, in terms I can understand, You are real. |

They sacrifice and seek the way of the Creator. After many years of dedication, the Grandfathers teach them about power and about laws and about how to use the medicine. The Medicine People develop tremendous faith in their medicine and in the Creator. When we go to the Medicine People, we too must have faith so they can help us. We can only be helped if we want to be helped. Because the Medicine People know how to help - that is only one half of it. The other half is up to us. We must have faith that the medicine has powers to help. My Creator, faith is belief without evidence. Today, give me the faith. Let me trust that You are running why life. Let me know You are in charge of all things. Let my mind not wonder; let me stand strong on Your path today. |

Without the Creator, we are nothing. When the Creator is in our life, suddenly the impossible becomes possible. The extraordinary becomes ordinary. Things we thought could never happen start to happen. Talents we never know we had, start to blossom. Resources appear. Help arrives to give us guidance and direction. We become happy.

First we set the goal and then we see. If we create within ourselves a picture or vision and we hold that picture or vision in our mind, whatever we picture will show up in our reality. If we can see ourselves being educated, then schools and teachers will show up in our lives. If we picture in our mind a positive, spiritual person to be in our lives, we will attract this type of person in our relationships. How big can our dreams be? Great Spirit, let my visions today be Your vision. Put within me a vision of the being you would have me be. Then help me to keep the vision in my mind. |

We must prepare ourselves to become a channel. Our channel must be clean before we can use our power well. We must be free of resentments, guilt, shame, anger, self pity and fear. If these things are in us, we cannot be hollow bones. These things block us from our power. The cleaner we are, the more power we move. We must become a hollow bone so the Creator can use us to do what he wants us to do. My Creator, remove from me today all resentment, anger, fear, guilt and selfishness. Do not let my weaknesses stand in the way of my usefulness to You. Make me a hollow bone so Your power can flow through me. |

These powers or Grandfathers are there to help us. The powers are from the East, the South, the West, and the North. To call upon the power we need to stand in the center and face each of the directions and honor all forms of life in each direction. Facing the East we honor all the two legged, four legged, winged ones, plants' nation and the animals. We repeat this prayer in each of the four directions. This allows us to become centered. When we are centered, then we are ready to call the helpers. It is said, when the student is ready, the teacher appears. If we are to be ready, we need to remember to always get quiet first. We do this by honoring and praying to the four directions. Grandfathers from the four directions, come to me today with Your powers. Give me Your gifts so I can serve the people. |

How He guides us is through our eyes, ears, hands, nose, mouth, arms legs and feet. We are instruments of the Creator. We are His keepers of the earth. We are the keepers of our brothers. We are to teach His children. We are to respect the things He has made. We are to take care of ourselves and treat our bodies and our minds with respect. We are to do respectful things. We are to walk the Sacred Path. We should have good thoughts. We should do only things that we think the Creator would have us do. What an honor to be a human being. What an honor that He would talk to us and guide us to perform His wonders. Oh Great Spirit, let me appreciate the role you have given me. Let my sense be sharp to hear Your voice.

But we are, after all, a mere part of the creation and we must consider to understand where we are and we stand somewhere between the mountain and the Ant. Somewhere and only there is a part and parcel of the creation." --Chief Oren Lyons, ONONDAGA Every human being gathers information from the center of a circle. If we are not careful, we soon think we are the center of all things. Therefore, it is easy to become self centered. Once we become self centered we start to think we are above all things and therefore superior. But we are really only one part of a great whole. The universe is all connected. Each part is here to do something special and according to its design. We are here to honor and respect the job of each part. We are neither above nor below anything. We need not be ruler over anything, we need only to live in honor and harmony with the system. My Creator, help me to view and conduct myself in a manner of respect, dignity and honor to all creation. Let me see You in all things. ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 30 "Words hypnotize and deceive everyone at one time or another, but these hypnotic words cannot last long in the hearts of true warriors." --Barney Bush, SHAWNEE We are a part of an interconnected system. Words in themselves have no meaning. It is the spirit and intent behind the words that really show the meaning. We are connected to each other at the center of the atom which makes up the air and our body. The center of the air's atom system is connected to the center of our body's system. I am connected to you and you are connected to me in the center of our being. If my words have no meaning, you can feel this through the center of your being. Great Spirit, help me make my word good. Let me do the things I say I will, and let me say the things I will do - and do it. |

Let me look into my own eyes and see the beauty You have created. Let me have good thoughts. Being Indian is not the color of my skin. Being Indian is to listen to my heart, to think only the things You have taught, to watch nature and live in harmony. Being Indian is to walk in prayer, to talk to You constantly during the day. Being Indian is to act and to walk in a sacred way. Today, let me think in beauty, let me walk in beauty, let me pray in beauty. |

If I honor you, I honor myself." --Hunbatz Men, MAYAN It is said, when we need love the most is when we deserve it the least. Whenever I have secret thoughts about someone else, it will put bad feelings inside myself. I will hurt myself. If I secretly hold a grudge or resentment against my brother or sister, I will be a slave to that person until I let them go. Let me remember to look at my brother in a sacred manner. Today, let me think like a Warrior. Let my thoughts toward my brothers and sisters be good thoughts. Let me remember that You are in charge. If I get upset at another person today, let me remember that the most important thing I can do is to first talk to You because, when I am right with You, it is impossible to be out of harmony with my brothers and sisters. My Creator, take my hand and guide me through today. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 03.07.2003 at 11:53:47 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 3 "When you are in the woods, you cannot ever be lost. You are surrounded by friends and surrounded by God." --Joe Coyhis, STOCKBRIDGE-MUNSEE Every plant, every animal, every insect, every bird, every tree is made up of God. God is life and everything is alive. When you are hunting, remember all nature is your friend. All nature has purpose. All nature participates in the life cycle. Nature communicates; Nature talks; Nature listens; Nature forgives; Nature respects; Nature loves. Nature lives in harmony. Nature follows the law. Nature is kind. Nature is balance. The woods are alive and beautiful. She is our friend. Great Spirit, let me honor and respect the forest and all the life it contains. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 04.07.2003 at 11:35:42 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 4 "That is not our way, to set yourself apart and talk about who you are and what you've done. You let your life speak for you. With the Mohawk people, wisdom is how you live and how you interpret what your mother and father, what your grandmothers and grandfathers have told you about this world - and then how you interpret that into the fact of living every day." --Tom Porter, MOHAWK It is said, how you live your life makes so much noise that people can't hear what you are saying anyway. It is so easy to see people who do not walk the talk. Creator, I ask you today to help me be humble. Let me spend the day listening. Help me to not brag or gossip. Help me today not to do those things that seek attention or approval from others. I am only accountable to You, Oh Great Spirit. You will tell me the things I need to know. Let me learn the lessons from my Elders. Let me teach the children by example. Today, let me walk the talk. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 05.07.2003 at 15:49:11 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 5 "It does not require many words to speak the truth." --Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE The truth shall set you free. This is the truth. When we speak the Truth, we do not need to be defensive. Truth needs no defense. When we speak the Truth, we do not need to attack because Truth cannot be attacked. It is so easy to want to manipulate or to be deceitful or dishonest. My head tells me I can get away with doing these things, after all everybody does it. My Creator, today let me know Truth. Let me live Truth. Let me risk the Truth. Let me make the Truth sweet. Help me to make my word good. Let Your spirit and intent be added to by words. Let My thoughts be Truth. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 07.07.2003 at 11:18:22 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 6 "Silence is the cornerstone of character." --Charles Alexander Eastman, OHIYESA SANTEE SIOUX Be still and know. Anyone can verbally attack another. Anyone can be a smart aleck. Anyone can be angry and tell other people things that will hurt them. Anyone can be sarcastic, devaluating and belittling. It takes a Warrior to be silent. Silence is so powerful. Silence can be so loving. My Creator, if I get into a situation today that needs me to respond with silence, help me to use my silence in a good and sacred way. In my silence, let me be talking to You and You talking to me. Silence is the way of the warrior. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 7 "I believe much trouble and blood would be saved if we opened our hearts more." --Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE We are as sick as our secrets. Our ego takes over control of our lives and when that happens our minds get very sick. Then we hurt people and our minds will always justify our actions. Our minds will give us rationalization and excuses that we are justified in doing what we are doing. My Creator, Let me live today with an open heart. Let me realize to be vulnerable is a strength, not a weakness. Let me realize the power of an open heart. Let me be available to truth. If I get into trouble, let me hear the whisper of your guidance. Let me make heart decisions and let my head catch up to that decision. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 08.07.2003 at 13:48:15 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 8 "You are going to learn the most important lesson - that God is the most powerful thing there is." --Mathew King, LAKOTA The Medicine Wheel teaches that there are two worlds - the Seen World and the Unseen World, or the Physical World and the Spiritual World. We need information from both of these worlds in order to live our lives in a harmonious way. The most difficult way is to figure things out by ourselves and leave the Great Spirit out of it. When we do this, we are making decisions with information only from the Physical World. This can be called reliance on self. If we ask the Creator to help us, we then get information from the Unseen World or the Spiritual World. The Spiritual World is where we get our power. When we do this, we are God-reliant. Being God-reliant is the same as being on the Red Road. Great Spirit, whisper the secrets of the Unseen World in my mind's ear. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 09.07.2003 at 11:08:08 Elder's Meditation of the Day July 9 "We have to educate ourselves to know who we are. That's what I mean when I say, 'Teach the children.'" --Eddie Benton-Banai, OJIBWAY It is only by knowing ourselves that we can get in touch with our power. It is said, "Tell me what you know about yourself and I'll tell you what you know about God. Tell me what you know about God and I'll tell you what you know about yourself." As we increase knowledge of ourselves, as we choose to grow spiritually, as we clean up our act, then we can teach the children. My Creator, You have said "Know thyself." Today let me see the wisdom of this Truth. Give me Your insight of myself. I am always walking the talk and most people can see it. Today, help and guide me on the Red Road. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 10.07.2003 at 14:25:47 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 10 "Each soul must meet the morning sun, the new, sweet earth, and the great silence alone." --Charles Alexander Eastman, OHIYESA SANTEE SIOUX Each morning a new sun for a new day arises. Each morning the sweet perfume from the Mother Earth spreads across the land. This combination of sun, earth, smell and quiet is a magic door for me to enter to kneel before the Grandfathers. The sacred time to commune with the Great Spirit. Oh Great Spirit, I humbly stand before You along with the new sun, the Mother Earth and the smells of the morning. I ask You to direct my thinking today. Let me live in the silence. Teach me Your wisdom, Teach me to love my brothers and sisters. Let me respect the things You have made. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 11.07.2003 at 11:18:18 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 11 "Do not grieve. Misfortunes will happen to the wisest and best of men. Death will come, always out of season. It is the command of the Great Spirit, and all nations and people must obey. What is past and what cannot be prevented should not be grieved for..." --Big Elk, OMAHA Chief Our earth continues to Grow by cycles and seasons: The cycles of growth - spring, summer, fall, winter. The cycles of the human being - baby, youth, adult, elder. It is through these cycles that we will experience the changes. I will not always necessarily agree with these changes but I need to trust the Grandfathers are in charge. Things will come and things will go. Really, I own nothing, the Creator owns all. Too often I label things as mine. I say this belongs to me, but it really belongs to the Creator. He gives me things to take care of. I need to do the best I can with what I have, with what I know at the time. And when the Creator changes things, I need to let go for His planning is the best. Oh Great Spirit, today let me do the best I can with what I know, with what I have. Let me experience acceptance of Your will. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 17.07.2003 at 12:02:54 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 12 "Each man is good in the sight of the Great Spirit." --Sitting Bull, TETON SIOUX Our bodies are both physical and spiritual. At our very center we are spiritual. Our bodies are built around the spiritual. The center is the unseen world. Therefore, we cannot see it with our eyes and we tend to judge the body because we can see it. The body is not who we are. We can see the spiritual if we are spiritual ourselves. We won't see this always with our physical eyes. Usually we will see it with our spiritual eye. We will hear ourselves say "I know this to be true." At the center of all human beings is the place of good. That includes myself. At my very core is good. I can find this place by staying free of resentments, fear, dishonesty and self-seeking motives. My Creator, keep me free this day of resentment, selfishness, dishonesty and fear. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 13 "Grandfather, Great Spirit, once more behold me on earth and lean to hear my feeble voice. You lived first, and You are older than all need, older than all prayer...You are the life of all things." --Black Elk, OGLALA SIOUX Great Spirit - Sometimes I don't feel like praying. Sometimes when I have done something wrong, I'm ashamed to come to You. Even though You have always been there for me, I sometimes choose to stay away. It's hard for me to understand what all knowing is. Sometimes it's hard for me to see how much You really care. But I know if I take a few minutes and think about what I know to be true about You, the things change and I am able to realize Your power and Your love. Today, I'll start by thinking of You. I'll think about all the times You have helped and guided me in the past. You are life, You are love, You are power, You are desire, You are truth, Your are principle, You are intelligence, You are courage. With You I am everything; without You I am nothing. Creator, thank You for allowing me to start my day with You. ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 14 "It was good for the skin to touch the earth, and the old people liked to remove their moccasins and walk with bare feet on the sacred earth... The soil was soothing, strengthening, cleansing, and healing." --Chief Luther Standing Bear, TETON SIOUX Touching the earth - getting grounded, centered. There is magic in touching the earth and feeling her healing power. This is especially healthy to do during a troubling time when our minds are racing or can't stop thinking or are locked onto fear or resentment. When I need to feel free I can go to the Mother Earth. The Mother Earth is full of life and love. She always gives her powers to those who come to her. The Mother Earth is alive. Today, my Great Spirit, let me remember to touch the earth. Let me slow down and live just for today. Let me be gentle, patient and kind. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 15 "We are nothing compared to His power, and we feel and know it." --Black Hawk, SAUK Inside of every man and woman is a place of knowing. In this place is the knowing that there is a Great One, the Great Mystery, the Holy One, the Great Spirit. We can deny this all we want but we know what we know. This place of knowing is at the very center of our being. It is gratifying to know that God cannot leave us. It is said we are spiritual beings trying to be human. With this power in our lives, we can accomplish much. We can do many good things for our people. Oh Great Spirit, I know of Your power. I love the days when I can feel Your presence. Let today be one of those days. Let me walk today in Your beauty. ....................................................................................................................................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 16 "Grandfather says...you must not hurt anybody or do harm to anyone. You must not fight. Do right always. It will give you satisfaction in life." --Wovoka, PAIUTE The question one should ask themselves is: Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy? If you want to be right, this is a request from your ego. If you want to be happy then this is of the Great Spirit. The only meaning anything has is the meaning we give it. Maybe we should develop a philosophy of: Today is the last day of the rest of my life. If this were true, how easy it would be to let things go - how easy it would be to forgive. Oh Great Spirit, let me live today as if it was my last. Let me express Your joy and be happy today. Let me see the joy and honor of living on the Red Road. |

I can't give away anything that I don't have myself. If I am to love others, then I must love myself. If I am to forgive others, then I am to forgive myself. If I am to accept others as they are then I need to accept myself as I am. If I am to not judge others, then I need to lighten up on myself. Let me experience this power of love... My Creator, today I will love myself so I can love my neighbor. I will look at each person today and see Your light within them. If I do this, I will hold my brothers and sisters without guilt. |

These laws were good." --Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE The Creator gives us many laws to live by. These are different than the laws of man. The laws of the Creator are designed for us to live in harmony and balance with ourselves and each other. These laws are about having freedom and happiness. Our Elders teach us these laws. Laws about how to treat each other, laws about how to treat and respect our Mother Earth, laws about the environment. Oh Great Spirit, teach me the laws of the unseen world. Today I pray You open my eyes so I can better see the Red Road. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 20.07.2003 at 13:38:02 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 19 "We were taught to believe that the Great Spirit sees and hears everything, and that He never forgets, that hereafter He will give every man a spirit-home according to his deserts: If he has been a good man, he will have a good home; if he has been a bad man, he will have a bad home." --Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE I cannot hide my true spirit and intent from the Creator. He created a system of justice. This system of justice says we will get back whatever we plant. If I plant good then good returns - if we plant bad, then we will suffer the consequences. Whatever we think about another person, the same things are thought about us. Whatever we send out is sent back. Man cannot alter this system of justice. It doesn't matter what we say or do. What really matters is what we really, really did. Oh Great Spirit, guide me today to do good, to have good thoughts. Let me remember the things I do are to honor Your way of life. ............................................................................................................................................................................ Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 20 "When you begin a great work you can't expect to finish it all at once; therefore, do you and your brothers press on and let nothing discourage you until you have entirely finished what you have begun." --Teedyuschung, DELAWARE All things have their seasons. All thoughts are real. We must think to cause action and each action creates results. Big visions require many thoughts. It takes a series of thoughts to create a series of actions. A series of actions creates a series of results. These results are what makes vision become real. If we are here to serve the Creator then we can expect to be accomplishing big visions. How do we do this: One step at a time. Let me focus on what needs to be done today. Give me clear thoughts to accomplish the results that you, my Creator, would have me accomplish. |

Allow me this day to live in the now. Help me to see all the beauty You have created in all things. Let me know myself. Today, as I make mistakes, let me see them as lessons. Guide me. When I see others make mistakes, let me honor them for where they are. Let me realize that they are Your children and only You, my Grandfather, knows what is really going on. When my lips move, let the words be Your words. Allow me to have the courage to speak Your truth. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 22.07.2003 at 14:42:02 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 22 "All things are connected. Whatever befalls the earth befalls the children of the earth." --Chief Seattle, SUQWAMISH AND DUWAMISH We are all connected. This is what the Elders have told us for a long time. If we are connected to all things, then whenever we harm anything, it causes harm to ourselves. If we destroy the air, then we will be affected by what we breathe in. If we poison the earth, we poison ourselves. We must respect our Mother Earth and She will respect us in return. We must open our eyes and obey the spiritual laws that govern the earth and ourselves. Grandfather, today allow me to honor and respect the things You have made. Let me see the beauty of all things. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 23.07.2003 at 13:58:26 Elder's Meditation of the Day July 23 "...the greatest strength is in gentleness." --Leon Shenandoah, ONONDAGA Our Elders have taught us many lessons about becoming a Warrior and how to think and act like one. We have been told about the power of gentleness. We have been told about the power of the stillness. Physical power is about effort. Mental power is the opposite. It's about being effortless or less any effort. Gentleness is one of the greatest attributes of the Warrior and one of the greatest mental powers. It takes a lot of love to be gentle. Gentleness is not an ego word. Gentleness is the weapon of the Great Spirit. My Creator, today I will be gentle with myself and with others. I will listen to the whisper of my heart and learn the power of being gentle. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 24.07.2003 at 11:29:27 Elder's Meditation of the Day July 24 "Life is like a path...and we all have to walk the path... As we walk...we'll find experiences like little scraps of paper in front of us along the way. We must pick up those pieces of scrap paper and put them in our pocket... Then, one day, we will have enough scraps of papers to put together and see what they say... Read the information and take it to heart." --Uncle Frank Davis (quoting his mother), PAWNEE The Creator designed us to learn by trial and error. The path of life we walk is very wide. Everything on the path is sacred - what we do right is sacred - but our mistakes are also sacred. This is the Creator's way of teaching spiritual people. To criticize ourselves when we make mistakes is not part of the spiritual path. To criticize mistakes is not the Indian way. To learn from our mistakes is the Indian way. The definition of a spiritual person is someone who makes 30-50 mistakes each day and talks to the Creator after each one to see what to do next time. This is the way of the Warrior. Today let me see my mistakes as a positive process. Let me learn the aha's of life... Awaken my awareness so I can see the great learning that You, my Creator, have designed for my life. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 25.07.2003 at 11:56:42 Elder's Meditation of the Day July 25 "People need to wake up. They can't hear God's voice if they're asleep." --Vernon Cooper, LUMBEE Black Elk, a Sioux, talks about the hoop of many hoops. He says that above the people is a hoop, a conscience, the total belief of the people. If the hoop is sick, meaning dysfunctional, co-dependent, a lot of alcoholism, family abuse, violence, racism and sexual abuse, the people can get used to this and think this is normal. In other words, the people are asleep. If we have left the spiritual way of life, the people are asleep. If we are giving our power to another entity, the people are asleep. In most tribes, there are Coyote Clans. The job of the Coyote Clan people is to wake the people up. They need to become a nuisance and irritate the people. We must return to the spiritual walk. Oh Great Spirit, keep me awake today. Let me hear the voices of our ancestors...let me hear the voices of the Grandfathers. Because everybody is doing it doesn't make things right. Let me hear the truth today and become a coyote for the people. Give me the courage to be willing to be different. Let me walk straight on the Red Road. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 14.08.2003 at 03:04:00 Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 26 "These are our times and our responsibilities. Every human being has a sacred duty to protect the welfare of our Mother Earth, from whom all life comes. In order to do this, we must recognize the enemy - the one within us. We must begin with ourselves..." --Leon Shenandoah, ONONDAGA The outside is merely a reflection of our insides. My mind is designed to tell me that I'm not crazy for thinking what I am thinking. Even if I have angry thought, my mind is giving me excuses and reasons why it is OK to think what I'm thinking. I need to be knowledgeable about the laws of harmony and balance. I cannot twist the laws to serve me but I can adjust my life to serve the laws. This is the law - I am here to serve the earth. The earth is not here for me to misuse and abuse. Oh Great Spirit, allow me the insight and knowledge of how to live in harmony and balance with my surroundings. Grant me change from within. Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 27 "Let us put our minds together as one." --Irving Powless, Sr., ONONDAGA If we sat in a circle and put an object in the center of the circle and we all described what we saw, everyone would see different points of views from each other. Some would even see opposites because they would be sitting on opposite sides of the circle. In other words, you don't have to see what I see for you to be right. In fact, everyone in the circle is right based on their own point of view. If we are willing to listen to everyone's point of view, then we can get a more accurate description of the object in the center. This is one way to put our minds together. When we get the clarity from each other, we should give thanks and be grateful to each other. Grandfathers from the four directions, guide me today with Your wisdom from the east, from the south, from the west and from the north. Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 28 "A good heart and a good mind - those are what you need to be a chief." --Louis Farmer, ONONDAGA The combination of heart and mind is very powerful. The Medicine Wheel teaches that two worlds exist - the seen and the unseen. The seen world is the physical and the unseen is the spiritual world. Both of the worlds are necessary to discover true reality. The seen world is easiest seen by the male side. The unseen is easiest seen by the female side. The heart is the unseen and the mind is the seen. Blessed is the leader or person who has developed the heart and the mind. Truly, the person is of tremendous value to the Creator and the people. My Great Spirit, help me this day to develop both my female side and my male side. Let me know all the feelings of each, let me develop and grow my intuition and my mind. Let my development only serve You. Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 29 "When we want to talk to Him we burn tobacco and it takes our prayers all the way up to the Sky World." --Louis Farmer, ONONDAGA Our herbs and our medicines are all here for the purpose of serving. Offering tobacco as a gift to the Creator is proper use of our medicine. In this way, we are able to communicate from the physical world to the spiritual world. Sometimes we have a hard time coming up with the right words when we pray especially if we are really mixed up. The tobacco and the sage will take the intent to the spirit world. The meaning behind the words are more important the the words. The Creator always knows our intent. The tobacco helps us get to the Sky World. Today, my Creator, I offer You this tobacco. I want to thank You for being in my life. I want to tell You how much I appreciate the honor of being here to serve You. Tell me this morning what I can do for You. You are the reason I live. Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 30 "You want to know who's a real medicine man? He's the one who doesn't say 'I'm a medicine man.' He doesn't ask you to come to him. You've got to go and ask him. And you'll find he's always there among his own people." --Louis Farmer, ONONDAGA The Medicine Man is a role model of what it is like to live in harmony and balance with the Creator. It takes a long time, a lot of sacrifice and discipline to become a Medicine Man. A Medicine Man is humble and never crass about anything. He knows he lives to do the will of the Great Spirit. He knows he is to help the people. He lives very low key - the more low key he lives, the more people seek him out - and such is life. The more one serves the people and is quiet about it, the more he is sought out. The quieter he is, the more powerful is his medicine. Great Spirit, allow me this day to be humble. Allow me this day not to seek attention, but to live quietly and keep my focus and attention on serving You. Elder's Meditation of the Day - July 31 Look behind you. See your sons and your daughters. They are your future. Look farther and see your sons' and your daughters' children and their children's children even unto the Seventh Generation. That's the way we were taught. Think about it: you yourself are a Seventh Generation." --Leon Shenandoah, ONONDAGA The Creator designed us with a free will. That means we function from choices and consequences. It is important that we practice thinking about consequences before we make decisions about choices. Every choice I make is like setting up dominos one after the other that produce consequences. Not just for me but also for my children and for the children that are unborn. My choices and decision today will have consequences for seven generations. For example, if I work on my own spiritual development and I walk the Red Road, the odds are that my children will. They will marry and their children will follow the Red Road and so will my grandchildren even up to the seventh generation. This will happen because of the choices and decisions that I make today. Great Spirit, grant that the choices and decisions that I make today will honor Your laws and values. May I live in peace today that will ripple into the seventh generation. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 14.08.2003 at 03:09:04 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 1 "Everyone got to find the right path. You can't see it so it's hard to find. No one can show you. Each person got to find the path by himself." --Charlie Knight, UTE There are certain times in our lives when a voice whispers to us. The voice doesn't always talk. Usually we hear it best when we are sick an tired of being sick and tired. Inside of every person is the knowledge that a Supreme Being exists. Sometimes a restlessness occurs and it makes me feel I need to be doing something or I need to be going somewhere or maybe I start wondering who am I? Often when this happens, I feel lost. Inside of everyone is the natural, built-in desire to be walking the Red Road, or to be seeking a relationship with the Creator. No one can force us to make this journey. We must make this journey because we want to. This journey is not on the outside. The path is inside of ourselves. It is inside that we must begin our search. Oh Great Spirit, help me this day to look within myself. If trouble arises, let me realize that it's not what is going on but how I am looking at what's going on. Give me Your power this day to conduct myself according to Your way of life . Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 2 "When you get older and you are ready, your ancestors will show up to guide you." --Joe Coyhis, STOCKBRIDGE-MUNSEE Many of us, when we are young, spend a portion of our lives in learning. Unfortunately, some of us spend this time learning the hard way. When we are young we sometimes think we know everything. Sometimes we do foolish things. As we get a little older, we realize we don't know anything. This is when we become teachable. There is a saying that goes, when the student is ready, the teacher appears. We usually aren't teachable unless we are ready. The ancestors are waiting and willing to help. When we are ready, many beautiful teachers start to come into our lives. Then we really start to grow and mature. We are ready for the spiritual lesson. Creator, help me to become ready and teachable. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 3 "Always remember you are Indian - do things to make your people proud." --Joe Coyhis, STOCKBRIDGE-MUNSEE All our choices and decisions will reflect on our people. We need to assume the accountability of honoring people. We must remember to conduct ourselves in a sacred way. Sometimes this is hard. But we must remember we have the assistance of the Spirit World, and we have the principles and values by which we should live written in our hearts. The Creator will help us develop into a strong people if we just learn to depend upon Him. Great Spirit, lead me on the path of the Red Road. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 4 "Telling our lives is important for those who come after as, for those who will see our experience as part of their own historical struggle." --Linda Hogan, CHICKASAW How important it is for us to support one another. How important it is for us to know our culture and to share our experiences with one another. How powerful it is to be authentic. How important it is to hold no secrets. I am as sick as my secrets. Grandfather, allow me today to be willing to share with my brother and sister. Let my eyes see You in their eyes. Let me not judge them but only love them. Grandfather, help me, for I am Your humble servant. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 5 "It is a paradox in the contemporary world that in our desire for peace we must willingly give ourselves to struggle." --Linda Hogan, CHICKASAW The Grandfathers have taught us about sacrifice. We have been taught to pray for the people in a pitiful way. Struggle and conflict is neither good nor bad, it just is. Everything that grows experiences conflict. When the deer is born it is through conflict. When the seed first grows, it is through conflict. Conflict precedes clarity. Everything has the seasons of growth. Recognize - acknowledge - forgive and change. All of these things are done through conflict. Great Spirit, give me the courage today to see that struggle and conflict are here to teach me lessons that are a gift from you. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 6 "We have to have one mind for the Four Directions. Until we reach that one mind, we cannot be filled with understanding.... The Creator will not answer until you have just one mind, just like if you have one person." --Grandfather William Commanda, ALGONQUIN The Elders have taught us to balance our lives emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. If I am out of control emotionally, I get angry, doubtful or erratic, I am out of balance. If I trigger bad mental pictures of my brothers and sisters, I am out of balance. If I get too hungry, angry, lonely, or tired, I am out of balance physically. If I don't pray and talk to the Creator daily, I am out of balance spiritually. To be centered, I must be in balance. The Creator talks to me in the quiet and still place. So if I get angry, what I should do first is to pause and get still so I can hear the guidance of the Grandfathers. Oh Great Spirit whose voice I hear in the winds, protect and keep me safe today - hear my prayers. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 7 "Everything I know I learned by listening and watching." --Vernon Cooper, LUMBEE Sometimes my mind is talking so fast about so many different things that I can't slow it down. All day long I am judging and making assumptions about everything. Great Spirit, help me this day to slow down. Help me to listen - quietly. Help me to watch carefully. Help me to listen to my inner voice. Let me listen and watch only the thing You would have me observe. Guide my eyes and my ears to be focused on You. Grandfather, love me today and teach me to be quiet. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 14.08.2003 at 03:13:32 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 8 "The Creator told everyone of us in our tribal beginnings to look after our ceremonies, and each other." --Barney Bush, SHAWNEE Our ceremonies are important and each has a purpose. They teach us about the Creator and about each other. The ceremonies teach us to be humble and teach us to pray. They teach us to look inside ourselves. We should remember to pray each morning. Ask the Creator to guide our thinking. Think only good thoughts. Think good thoughts about our relatives and about our brothers and sisters. Pray for our children in ceremony. Give thanks to the Great Mystery for life. All life is sacred. Pray in a sacred way. Oh Great Spirit, I come to You this morning in ceremony. I come to this sacred place to talk to You. I thank You for Your guidance and protection. Give me Your eyes today so I may see the beauty in all things. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 9 "Praying to seek a vision, to seek truth is always right. Truth builds upon itself - as the true mark of a warrior who conducts himself/herself accordingly - so that its beauty may shine in the faces of our children." --Barney Bush, SHAWNEE We move toward and become like that which we think about. What we think about creates our vision. If our thoughts are wise and good, then our vision becomes strong and truthful. If our thoughts are junk, then our vision becomes contaminated, so it's important to be aware of what we are thinking about. As I live my vision, my children watch and they will live their lives the same way. We need to live the walk of the Warrior. We need to walk in beauty and respect. Oh Great Spirit, give me a vision for today. Let me see truth. Let me walk in beauty. Let my heart guide me in truth. The law says the truth shall set you free. Let me be free today. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 10 "Nature is the storehouse of potential life of future generations and is sacred." --Audrey Shenandoah, ONONDAGA We need to honor and respect our Mother Earth. She is the source of all life. The sun shines life to the earth, then the earth produces life in all forms and in a balanced way. Everything is here to serve everything else. If we interrupt the flow in any way, we leave nothing for the future generations. Before every decision is made, we should ask, and answer, a final question, "If we do this, what will be the effects on the seventh generation? What will we cause our children to live with?" We need to have respect and love for all things and for all people. We need to do this for ourselves and for all the children still unborn. My Creator, let me look at nature today and let me have the highest respect for all the things I see. All the two legged, the four legged, the winged ones, the plants, the water, the air, the Mother Earth. Let me have respect for myself. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 11 May there be peace when we meet." --Audrey Shenandoah, ONONDAGA The Elders tell us the greatest gift we can seek is peace of mind, to walk in balance, to respect all things. For us to do this, we must have peace within ourselves and peace within ourselves cannot come unless we are walking the path the Creator would have us walk. Sometimes the tests on this path are difficult, but we know that each test makes us stronger. Oh Great Spirit, I ask You to whisper Your wisdom in my heart. You are the only one who knows the secret to peaceful living and the mystery of harmony. Teach me of Your peace, understanding and balance and guide me onto your good path. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 12 With one mind we address our acknowledgement, respect, and gratefulness to all the sacred Cycle of Life. We, as humans, must remember to be humble and acknowledge the gifts we use so freely in our daily lives." --Audrey Shenandoah, ONONDAGA The sacred Cycle of life - the baby, the youth, the adult, the Elder. Let us respect all directions, the four directions of the Grandfathers; let us respect their power. Let us remember we belong to the earth, the earth does not belong to us. Help us to be respectful to all the gifts You have given us. Oh Great Spirit, help me this day to be humble. Let me not attack anything in deed or in my thoughts. Let my thoughts focus on the beauty You have created in all things. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 13 "A bit of sunshine, a drop of rain, a puff of life from the Great Spirit as He gently breathed upon that spot, created the Native Americans. They were well formed and agile, copper colored and proud. --Harriet Starleaf Gumbs, SHINNECOCK We are made in the image of the Great Spirit. A long time ago He breathed life into our ancestors. He made the Indian strong. He created a Warrior. Our ancestors created more warriors. We have been tested throughout the seasons and we are still here, stronger than ever. It is good to be Indian. We are proud of ourselves and our ancestors. Mostly we are proud the Great Spirit has never forsaken us, and continues to guide us. My Creator, let me live my life today in a way that would make my ancestors proud. Let me remember each month that I am here to serve You. Today let me conduct my life in a way that also would make You proud. |

So I'm going to tell you what I know and who I am. You guys better listen. You got a lot to learn. --Mathew King, LAKOTA A long time ago the Creator came to Turtle Island and said to the Red People - "You will be the keepers of the Mother Earth. Among you I will give the wisdom about nature, about the interconnectedness of all things, about balance and about living in harmony. You Red People will see the secrets of nature. You will live in hardship and the blessing of this is you will stay close to the Creator. The day will come when you will need to share the secrets with the other people of the earth because they will stray from their spiritual ways. The time to start sharing is today." Oh Great Spirit, today I am ready for You to use me as a channel of Your peace. Let my walk today be visible so the people will say "There goes a Man of God." I want to know what He knows. If they ask, I will tell them to go out into the wilderness and pray for You to guide them. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 15.08.2003 at 14:14:35 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 15 "There are many people who could claim and learn from their Indian ancestry, but because of the fear their parents and grandparents knew, because of past and present prejudice against Indian people, that part of their heritage is clouded or denied." --Joseph Bruchac, ABENAKI There were many injustices done to Native people. Sometimes I wonder, why am I connected to the past injustices done to Indian people? Why am I so angry about the past? The Elders say our ancestors are alive within each of us. Therefore, I may experience anger and resentment inside of me because of the injustice done to them. The way I get rid of these past feelings is to forgive. It may be necessary to even learn to forgive the unforgivable. Great Spirit, teach me the path of forgiveness; teach me the courage to forgive; teach me to let go. Give to me a forgiving heart. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 18.08.2003 at 11:06:41 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 16 "The best teachers have shown me that things have to be done bit by bit. Nothing that means anything happens quickly - we only think it does." --Joseph Bruchac, ABENAKI There are no short cuts. Every tree must grow according to the growth plan of the Creator. Every flower must grow according to the plan of God. The moon must make its trip around the earth according to God's plan. Every human being must grow according to the plan of the Creator. Sometimes we look at ourselves and we think we are not growing but we are always growing. Because we cannot see it with our mind does not mean it is not happening. we must be patient with ourselves and let the Creator direct our growth. My Creator, let me be patient. Let me realize that You are in charge of all things. Let me realize that I must grow my roots a little at a time to become strong. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 17 "If a child hasn't been given spiritual values within the family setting, they have no familiarity with the values that are necessary for the just and peaceful functioning in society." --Eunice Baumann-Nelson, Ph.D, PENOBSCOT When we are born, we start with a beautiful empty mind ready to be given our beliefs, attitudes, habits and expectations. Most of our true learning comes from watching the actions of others. As we watch our family or relatives, whatever their actions and values are, so will be the children's values and acts. If we see our families living a just and peaceful way of life, so then will the children. If we see our family shouting, arguing and hateful, so will it be for the children. The cycle of life - baby, youth, adult and Elder is all connected. If the older ones have good values, it will be connected to the children. Oh my Creator, if there are values I have missed, it is not too late. I can get them from You. Teach me today Your spiritual values. Respect, trust, giving, honesty, wisdom - teach me these. Elder's Meditation of the Day August 18 "You have to have confidence in your own ability to be able to go it alone, to go against what the rest of the culture is doing." --Eunice Baumann-Nelson, Ph.D., PENOBSCOT God, this is hard. Today, allow me to be a Warrior. Let me be strong. Let Your voice be clear to me. Let me hear Your guidance. My goal today is to serve You, to develop myself to be the kind of Indian person that You would have me be. To Walk the Red Road must sometimes be walked alone. Great Spirit, let me walk the Red Road today with the confidence that You are with me. If I fall, I will quickly ask You to help me know what I should do next. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 19.08.2003 at 11:25:02 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 19 "If we keep everything in balance, we are in harmony with ourselves and are at peace." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA As within, as without, our present thought determines our future. If we want peace outside ourselves, we must first have peace inside ourselves. It's not what is going on but how we are looking at what is going on. We need to keep ourselves in balance. We must be careful to not get too hungry, angry, lonely or tired. We must know the times - time to work, time to rest, time to play, time to sleep, time to pray, time to lighten up, time to laugh, time to eat, time to exercise. There is a saying "The honor of one is the honor of all." This means when we work with all, we need to also work on one. We need to take care of ourselves. You cannot give away what you don't have. Great Spirit, let me walk in balance today. Remove from me resentment, self pity and self seeking motives. Let me love myself so I can love my neighbors. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 20.08.2003 at 11:46:19 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 20 "...remember and think about the closeness of Wanka-Tanka. If they live in this wisdom, it will give them endless strength and hope." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA The value of staying close to the Creator is the immediate help we have available to us whenever we need it. I can listen to the whisper of my heart for this is the place He communicates with me. Staying close helps me remember that we are here to serve Him and to help other people. The Grandfathers are my direct access to wisdom. He who has wisdom has everything. If we have wisdom, then we will see our lives become more effective in the areas of jobs, relationships, family, friends and finances. My Creator, today grant me the wisdom to seek Your wisdom. Help me to Walk of the Red Road. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 21.08.2003 at 11:44:06 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 21 "The greater the faith, the greater the result." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA The Creator designed us to act on faith. We are able to do this by holding firm to our beliefs. If we believe something and if we don't want the belief to change, we need to add the power of the Great Spirit to this belief. We must always have the spiritual added to our beliefs. If we don't add the Spirit, then we may very well change our minds during the first time we are tested. Each time we are tested and we don't change our minds, we get stronger. The wind may blow on the red willow trees bending them and causing the roots to grow deeper. The more the wind bends the tree, the bigger, stronger and deeper the roots grow. We should be happy that we are tested. It's the Creator's way of making us have greater faith for greater results. Great Mystery, Grandfather, I know if I am tested today that I can count on You to give me the courage to get to the other side. On the other side of every test is the reward of strength. Make me strong. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 25.08.2003 at 10:59:17 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 22 "When life is too good, we think too highly of ourselves and our blessings. Then we decide we are the wisest and the favored ones, and we don't think we need Wakan-Tanka and the Helpers anymore." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA It is sometimes easy to get off track when times are good. We start to take the credit and start to think we are in control. We start to think we are smart. Then we quit praying or pray only with lip service. We say the words but don't mean them. Sometimes our head is our greatest enemy. We start acting like a foolish child. We must develop the discipline to be humble during the good times. We need to remember how honorable it is each day to come into the presence of the Creator. How happy we should be to talk to the Grandfathers, to have the choice to start each day on the Sacred Spot - our place of communion with the Great Spirit. Oh Great Spirit, first let me thank You for the honor of talking to You today. To have the insight of Your love, that only You can love me when I don't deserve to be loved. Let me be reminded to talk to You all day long. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 23 "They also learned, and perhaps this was the most important thing, how to look at things through the eyes of the Higher Powers." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA Our eyes can only see our beliefs. Our beliefs cause us to make assumptions, draw conclusions and cause confusion. Our five senses are very limiting. The Creator has a way of allowing us to see or know in the spiritual world. This is called the Sixth Sense. The Sixth Sense is like a radar system; our personal radar system. It will help us "see" opportunities and help us avoid disaster. This Sixth Sense is controlled by God. We must learn to listen to it. We must learn to trust it. We must learn to act on it even if our head says differently. We must learn to look at things through the eyes of God. My Creator, guide me today. If my eyes cause confusion, let me close them and see through Your eyes. If my ears hear confusion, let me listen to my heart. Let me let You guide me. Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 24 "The mind's eye changes the way we judge things." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA "What you see is what you get." Our head has inside it a movie projector that projects out from our foreheads and shines on a screen a picture of our true thoughts. This is our reality. We can only see what we project (our beliefs). If we believe someone is a jerk, every time we see them we reflect our beliefs about what we think about that person and that is all we can see. Even if someone tells us this person is a kind, loving, caring, intelligent individual, we wouldn't be able to see it. If we change our belief about them, that person will change and so will our judgment about that person. My Creator, let me realize the power of choice. Let me see the advantages of changing my beliefs. Today, if I am judging my brother, let me change my beliefs to acceptance. If my thoughts are of anger, let me change them to love. Let my eyes only see you in everything and every person. Elder's Meditation of the Day August 25 "God is making use of you - you should be grateful He's found a use for you." --Mathew King, LAKOTA The Creator can only create through human beings. Each human being has a purpose given to us by the Creator. We are on this earth to fulfill this purpose. Our only work is to make ourselves ready, to become a channel, to perform for the Creator. We prepare ourselves by prayer. We prepare ourselves by becoming unselfish. We prepare ourselves by seeking and choosing to walk on a spiritual path. Each morning we look to the east and we say an honor prayer to the Creator. We offer our gifts: tobacco and corn. We ask him to help us do His will for today. In this simple way, we still fulfill our purpose. It should be an honor to serve the Creator. Great Spirit, today I am ready to serve You. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 26.08.2003 at 12:03:41 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 26 "Those who live for one another learn that love is the bond of perfect unity." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA To serve each other, to respect each other, to trust each other, to honor each other, to love each other, to cooperate with each other, to care for each other, to forgive one another, to focus on peoples' good, to laugh with one another, to learn from one another; to pray for each other - these are all acts of love. These values and actions will connect us to one another in the Unseen World. Nature is a good example of how we should get along with one another. Watch nature. She is our teacher. Nature lives to give to one another. The insects give to the birds who give to the four legged who give to the two legged. The Creator made all things perfect. Oh Great Spirit, let me serve the people today. Let me see that it is better to give than it is to receive. Be with me today. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 27.08.2003 at 12:45:32 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 27 "We begin by letting the Powers know that we are willing to be their servants to others." --Fools Crow, LAKOTA There are certain prayers or actions we can take that will call the Powers. The powers can only work through people. The Powers are always waiting to express themselves through people that are ready. every person born is born with a purpose. They have a song to sing. They have a mission to accomplish. Every true purpose will always be about serving the Creator and helping others. When we let the Powers know that we are ready to serve the people, the Powers get excited because they can now do things to help the people and make things better for them. The decision is powerful because it turns an idea into action. Great Spirit, the greatest joy or feeling that I have ever experienced is when you are using me to help the people, the feeling of giving, the feeling of being your channel. Today, let me have that feeling of giving. Use me as You will. |

You have told us that all life is sacred. Today I intend to serve you, my Creator. Allow me to overcome temptation, and if one comes along, let me see the lessons that will give balance. You have told us that all life is sacred. Let me see today with a sacred eye. Let me see beauty in all things. My Creator, let me know what You would have me be today.

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 29.08.2003 at 12:11:59 Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 29 "The devastated earth, the air, water, the extinct species of mankind, animalkind, and plantkind, the drugs, suicides, family separations - these are all the result of false ceremonies." --Barney Bush, SHAWNEE All life is a ceremony. Every act is a ceremony creating a result in our lives. Every ceremony we do always brings results to our lives. If we do bad medicine to others, we do bad medicine to ourselves. If we keep on doing bad ceremonies, we will eventually destroy ourselves. Any time we live our lives out of harmony, we are doing bad ceremonies. Any time we treat anything with disrespect whether it is another human being or a plant or an animal, we are performing bad ceremonies. These ceremonies not only have an effect on ourselves but will simultaneously affect everything. We need to use our power well, only do good ceremonies. My Creator, teach me only good ceremonies. Teach me ceremonies that accomplish good for all the people. Good ceremonies cause good results. Teach me ceremonies that are helpful. |

Following a painful accident related to drinking, I finally realized that I must decide whether I want to follow my grandparents or truly take up this life. Circumstances that followed led me to choose life." --Barney Bush, SHAWNEE My life is run by choices and decisions. Every choice I make today will carry with it the consequences of that choice. Every decision I make today will carry with it the consequences of that decision. The question I will ask myself today is, "Do I want to be happy or do I want to be right?" Which ever one I choose will have a lot to do with the consequences I will experience today. If today was the last day of my life, what choices and what decisions would I make? Oh Great Spirit, guide my path today and help me see the value of choosing the Red Road. ............................................................................................... Elder's Meditation of the Day - August 31 "Our Creator makes available to us all that we need. It is an honor to go out and gather it. We must remember to say 'Thank You.' It is honorable to give away, to show our gratitude... and to let the children see this." --Barney Bush, SHAWNEE So many times we forget to say "thank You" to the Creator. He made for us and abundant universe. He built the Mother Earth to reproduce plenty of everything. It is an honor to be a part of the Great Spirit's world. The Creator always gives us what we need. When we are given things, we should be willing to share it with others. Whenever we give to others, this makes us feel good inside. The more we give, the better we feel. The better we feel, the more we want to give. We need to teach this to our children. The children learn by our behavior. My Creator, thank you for today. Thank you for the sun. Thank you for the earth. Thank you for my life. Thank you for...... |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 01.09.2003 at 12:52:21 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 1 "Everyone has a song. God gives us each a song. That's how we know who we are. Our song tells us who we are." --Charlie Knight, UTE As we start to walk the Red Road and as we develop ourselves as Warriors, a song will come to us. This song is given to each of us from the Great Spirit. Whenever we sing this song, we will receive courage and strength not only for ourselves but if we sing this song for others, it will also help them. The song will give us power and make us feel really good. The song will make us see life in a sacred way. If you don't have your song yet, ask the Creator in prayer if He will give you your song. With the song comes a responsibility - the responsibility to act and conduct oneself as a Warrior according to your song. Oh my Creator, let me live my song. Let my song honor Your way of life. Let me sing my song each day. At the end of today, let my song tell people who I am. I am a beautiful child of the Creator. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 02.09.2003 at 23:13:08 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 2 "I remember Dawson (No Horse) said, 'Once you say your prayers, don't worry about them. If you worry about them, they'll just fade away.'" --Chuck Ross, LAKOTA Today I need to remember You are everywhere. I need to remember how much You love me. I need to know, Grandfathers, that You are always listening. Today I need to know how much You care. Today I will remember the advice of the Elders. "Say your prayers and then don't worry - know that the Great One has heard you." It's so much easier to do this, Grandfather, when I feel connected to You. My Creator, allow me this day to feel your presence. Let me walk the path of life today and talk to You many times. Give me faith, my Grandfather. |

I know of this oneness. The more I am free of doubt, jealousy, judgment, selfishness, anger, the closer I am to this oneness. When I am right with the Creator, nothing can touch me. When I am right with the Creator I always say the right things. When I am right with the Creator, my thoughts are always good. When I am right with the Creator, my actions are always good. Great Spirit, remove from me those things that block me from You. Allow me this day to experience the oneness. |

This is a strong word for Indian people. On the other side of sacrifice is another whole world. During sacrifice, our beliefs are tested. We may all have good beliefs but if you test a good belief, then you get real beliefs. Real beliefs make new people; real beliefs make new self images. Real beliefs allow determination and desires and faith to come true. Good is always available to us but we often can't bring it within until we let go of the old ways. We let go of the old ways by suffering. Suffering is only letting go of things that don't work anymore. On the other side of suffering is a new world. Creator, help me to let go of old ways. Let my old thoughts and beliefs be abandoned. Every change is preceded by struggle. Help me go through the struggle today. |

We are no longer living in harmony. Focusing on the material only leads us from the path of the Creator. We must now pray for ourselves and the people in a pitiful way. We must be humble and ask the Great Spirit to intervene because if we don't, our children will continue to have troubles. They are acting out our behavior as adults. Today is a good time to start. We need to get the spiritual way back into our lives. We need to focus on the spiritual. My Creator, help me to focus on the spiritual way. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 06.09.2003 at 18:28:40 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 6 "We all form self-images and much of our behavior is pretty well determined by how we feel about ourselves." --Eunice Baumann-Nelson, Ph.D., PENOBSCOT There is a cycle of building beliefs called the self talk cycle. Our self talk builds our self image and our self image determines our behavior, our actions, and our self worth - how we feel about ourselves. If we want to change the way we feel about ourselves we need to change our self talk. We need to build ourselves up. We need to talk to ourselves in a kind, positive, uplifting, good way. We need to talk to ourselves about the good things that are happening and know that we are worthy and expect abundance. Oh Great Spirit, today help me to know myself. Help me to see the joy, kindness, strength and beauty that I am. |

In these modern times we must get educated so the people don't lose. We need lawyers, doctors, nurses, foresters, scientists, educators, carpenters, welders. These skills are needed to help the people. While we are learning, we need to remember to keep the culture, learn the dances, sing the songs, learn the language and maintain the Red Road for future generations. Great Spirit, let my education never lack the meaning and value of spirituality. |

The society we live in is all about getting more houses, cars, luxury and credit cards. The law of worry says, the more you have, the more you need to worry. You get a house, then you need insurance, then you need to take care of the yard and the list goes on. Next, you may want a bigger house with a bigger yard whick costs more in insurance. Along with the accumulation of materialism, are other "gifts." Soon you become a slave and the materialism owns you. Lead a simple life and have peace of mind. Lead a simple life and be spiritual. Creator, let my foundation be spiritual and simple. |

Another thing that can block us from wisdom is trying too hard or wishing something would happen. Wishing implies doubt and trying implies control. We need to let go of these things. We need to abandon ourselves to the Creator. As soon as we surrender everything, the wisdom starts to flow. The Elders know how to help us with this. Just ask them. My Great Spirit, today I surrender my life and my will to Your care. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 11.09.2003 at 00:08:33 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 10 "One of the first things Seneca children learned was that they might create their own world, their own environment, by visualizing actions and desires in prayer. The Senecas believed that everything that made life important came from within. Prayer assisted in developing a guideline toward discipline and self control." --Twylah Nitcsh, SENECA All permanent and lasting change starts first on the inside and works its way out. Having constant prayer and Creator directed visions helps us to live in harmony. This is the best way to grow strong and become a Warrior. No matter what is going on outside of ourselves, it is our projection that makes it so. It is our projections that even give it any meaning. Another way is each day to turn our life and our will over to the care of the Great Spirit. Then He will show us His desire for us. When we are in alignment to His desire, we become very joyful and very happy. Oh Great Spirit, You take care of me today and tell me what I can do for You today. Give me the discipline to talk to You whenever I am in doubt or fear. Let me come to You if I get irritated. You are my solution. |

Watch the trees, the animals and all living things - you'll learn more from them than from books." --Joe Coyhis, STOCKBRIDGE-MUNSEE Nature is a living example of how communities live in harmony. If you go into the forest or mountain and sit still and watch, ask yourself, what lessons are being taught? Then watch how the animals conduct themselves. The trees could represent diversity. The flowers could represent people. Notice how everything in nature assists one another. See how balance works. See how conflict is handled. Can you see acts of forgiveness? Can you spot respect? Nature is full of wisdom if wee will only consider her to be our teacher. My Creator, today let me learn from nature. |

Take your sage and tobacco; sit and be still. Talk to the water, offer tobacco and the healing water will take your problems downstream. Give thanks.

There are many places we have to go and there are many things to accomplish. The old ones say, the most important thing we can do is remember to take the time to pray. We should pray every morning and every evening. In this way we can be sure that the Great Spirit is running our lives. With the Great Spirit we are everything but without Him we are nothing. All Warriors know their greatest weapon is prayer. To spend time talking to the Creator is a great honor. Great Spirit, thank You for listening to my prayers. |

We should seek the advice of the Old One to help us build our vision. He will put inside of our mind and heart the vision that we are to follow. This vision is recognizable by the feeling that it has with it. This feeling is hard to describe. It feels "right," it feels calm, it feels joyful, it feels warm, it feels sacred. The Old One has a way of letting us know it really it His advice. Listen carefully! Grandfather, I'm listening. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 15.09.2003 at 11:22:27 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 15 "Knowledge is a beautiful thing, but the using of knowledge in a good way is what makes for wisdom. Learning how to use knowledge in a sacred manner, that's wisdom to me. And to me, that's what a true Elder is." --Sun Bear, CHIPPEWA We grow in wisdom by developing ourselves according to the four directions of the Medicine Wheel - emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. Let's say we started drinking and drugging in our teenage years. Our emotional development will stop, but we will grow older physically. We could then develop into an immature adult. As adults we might be acting like we were teenagers. Once we stop drinking or drugging, our emotional development will begin again. We need to grow and nurture ourselves in all four directions. We need to involve the Great Spirit's guidance in our development. That's the only way we become wise individuals and live our lives in harmony and in a sacred way. Oh Great Spirit, guide my thinking today. Let me walk in a sacred way on the Red Road. Let me be a learner of lessons and give me Your greatest gift - wisdom! |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 16.09.2003 at 12:28:56 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 16 "To me, the wisdom the Elders have to manifest is in teaching people how to live in harmony and balance with each other and the Earth." --Sun Bear, CHIPPEWA You cannot give away what you don't have. You need to give away what you have in order to keep it. Our Elders have lived their lives with a lot of trial and error. They have experienced how to do things good and they have experienced what didn't work for them as they grew old. They know things about living that we don't know. So, through the years the Elders have gained wisdom. They usually have a whole different point of view because of all their experiences. There are two ways to learn. Someone tells us what they did and we do the same thing or someone tells us what they did and we choose not to do it. Both of these paths will help us to live. My Creator, teach me about choices and decisions and consequences. Put an Elder in my life to guide me. |

During the last few years the young people have not been interested in learning the old ways. The only place this knowledge is found is among the Elders. We must encourage the young to visit with the Elders. The adults need to think also about learning the culture. The Elders are getting old and soon will go to the other side. Each of us must pause and think about our individual responsibility to learn the culture and teach this to our young. Great Spirit, help us to learn and remember the old ways. |

Each of the dwellings we create ourselves - the house of anger, the house of despair, the house of self pity, the house of indifference, the house of negative, the house of positive, the house of hope, the house of joy, the house of peace, the house of enthusiasm, the house of cooperation, the house of giving. Each of these houses we visit each day. We can stay in any house for as long as we want. We can leave these mental houses any time we wish. We create the dwelling, we stay in the dwelling, we leave the dwelling whenever we wish. We can create new rooms, new houses. Whenever we enter these dwellings, this becomes our world until we leave for another. What world will we live in today? Creator, no one can determine which dwelling I choose to enter. No one has the power to do so, only me. Let me choose wisely today. |

These things are my roots. Let me see Your gifts of growing and becoming a spiritual warrior. Make my strength based on values - spiritual values; on principles and laws, the laws of God that really run the universe. We need to realize the seeds we plant in the spring will be what shows up in our summer season of growth and will be the fruits that we will harvest in our fall season.

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 20.09.2003 at 11:04:27 Elder's Meditation of the Day September 20 "You will only get back what you give out." --Joe Coyhis, STOCKBRIDGE-MUNSEE The Great Spirit created a system of balance and justice. This law says, if you treat others with respect, you will be treated with respect. If you gossip about no one, no one will gossip about you. If you are fair in all of your dealings, you can expect the same. If you share with others, others, will share with you. If you judge others, others will judge you. You will always get back what you give out. The original teaching talks about being a giving person. A giving person will constantly be on the receiving end. My Creator, help me to be a giving person today. |

Your path is straight ahead of you. Sometimes it's invisible but it's there. You may not know where it's going, but still you have to follow that path. It's the path to the Creator. That's the only path there is." --Leon Shenandoah, ONONDAGA Everything on the earth has a purpose and a reason for its existence. Every human being is a warrior and every warrior has a song written in his/her heart and that song must be sung or the soul forever remains restless. This song is always about serving the Great Spirit and helping the people. This song is always sung for the people. Many times I need to learn much about the difficulties of life. I need to know this, so I must experience it. Then I can be of use to the people. Because I am experiencing difficulty does not mean I have left the path or that I have done something wrong. It means I'm doing the will of the Great Spirit during these times of testing. I need to pray constantly to keep a good attitude. Great Spirit, this I know - You will never leave me, only my doubting makes it seem like You do. This I know - Your love is always dependable, only my doubting makes it seem like You do. Today remove the doubts from my belief system and allow me to stand straight and see You with straight eyes. |

It is from these principles that we make our decisions. Spiritual values are the guiding principles given to us by the Great Spirit. He says if we live by these spiritual values, the results we experience will be good. These spiritual values will develop and guide the human being by helping us to think right. Right thinking will improve our choices and decisions. Doing this will bring good consequences. Great Spirit, teach me values first. |

Then later down the road, maybe in a couple of years, I understand what that spirit meant." --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA At certain spiritual events or happenings, it is possible for the spirits to come. Sometimes these spirits look like sparklers of light, sometimes you can feel them, sometimes they will look like live human beings. The spirits always come for a reason. When we deal with the spirit world, we need to be patient. The Great Spirit will tell us the meaning of these happenings when He is ready. Great Spirit, let me be aware of Your presence. |

Firewater affects our judgments. The Great Spirit created a set of laws and principles by which we are to live our lives. When we have problems we should pray and ask for the wisdom of these laws. If instead we turn to liquor, our judgement will be affected. It is the decision and choice made under the influence of booze that causes us to be fools. We need to learn to lean on prayer and not on the spirits of alcohol. Great Spirit, teach me to pray. Let not one drop of liquor touch my lips today. |

Title: Re: Sporočila in dnevne meditacije ŠAMANOV Post by Kali on 29.09.2003 at 01:06:48 Elder's Meditation of the Day - September 28 "Love is something that you can leave behind you when you die. It's that powerful." --John (Fire) Lame Deer, ROSEBUD LAKOTA The Old Ones say, love is all anyone needs. Love doesn't go away nor can love be divided. Once you commit an act of love, you'll find it continues. Love is like setting up dominos one behind the other. Once you hit the first domino, it will touch the second one which will touch the third one and so on. Every love act or love thought has an affect on each person as well as touching the whole world. If you live a life filled with love, the results will affect your friends, relatives and other people, even after you go to the other side. So... Love. My Creator, let me love. Let me put into action the love dominos. |

All of my concentration and thoughts went from my head to my heart. All of my senses - hearing, smell, taste, and feeling - were connected to my heart." --Wallace Black Elk, LAKOTA The heart is the gateway to the Unseen World, to the Spirit World. It takes real concentration to do this. To connect to our own heart is also a mental state. It starts in the head and transitions to the heart. This mental state is our inner stillness. Be still and know. This place of the heart is very joyous and peaceful. It is this place that we become one with God, our Creator. Great Spirit, teach me to be a heart warrior. |

It will free your mind of sorrowful thoughts." --Don Talayesva, HOPI Human beings function from choice. We can choose to stuff things, or we can choose to let go of things. If we choose to stuff things, then we will feel a heaviness, or sorrow, self pity or fear. Sometimes we feel the need to cry. Sometimes we are taught it is not okay to cry. The creator designed the human being to cry. Crying is a release. This release allows us to let go of thoughts that are not helping us so we can open to new thoughts that will help. Crying is natural for women and men. Grandfather, if I need to cry, let me realize it's a natural process and help me to let go. |
