ABOUT THUNDERHANDS



About Me: "Wakiya" (Thunder)
I am a Tribal, Musician, Writer, Artist. I try to walk the path and have studied the tradition of the "Wisdom keepers" like Lame Deer, Fools Crow, Black Elk, and Rolling Thunder from the tribes of this region, and Lao Tzu, Buddha, Bodhidharma, Yeshua, and other enlightened ones from the many various tribes of the earth. I understand the worlds religions and belief systems, and realize the division this can cause by the lack of understanding the "real message" from the Masters. My intention, and life's prayer is to try to live in harmony with Grandmother Earth, Grandfather sky, (Nature) and "the spirit that moves in all things," and help in any way I can to build a bridge between all men and tribes so they can walk their path in a manner that will benefit themselves, the Earth and others. I open up, and ask Great Spirit, The creator, The Tao, The Universe, to work and direct healing and positive energy through me by different means, like the Flute, drums, Words, Prayer, and Touch. I try to be loving and accept others from the heart, and practice forgiveness. I honor all people, the winged one's, and four legged ones considering us all equal, not one being above another. I honor the bountiful Harvest from Mother earth in the form of plant life, water, air and herbs which sustain our oneness with her. I pray all tribes should re-unite as one, so we may protect the planet and live in harmony. Within you, without you.

Just My thoughts!

Whenever I write anything, they are just my thoughts and what I am feeling. Sometimes I will put a quote out there from some wise sage or Holy man. Whatever the case it's kind of like the television, if you don't like it (turn it off) don't read it. And if you're on my e-mail list and want off, let me know. Nothing I say is written in stone, and I could change my mind tomorrow if I gain more insight. I always try to write from the heart and with love, while at the same time trying to keep a humble attitude. But like a friend of mine said recently, quote: "I haven't seen any perfect men walking the earth lately"

Whenever you put something out there in print, you leave yourself open to all kinds of things. I guess that's just part of life, and in a way I guess sometimes I make a judgment when I write. I don't mean to judge, and I hope my stuff strikes a chord with some out there. There is truth in everything if you look for it. And of course sometimes things can be taken out of context, or the proper emotion doesn't come through in words. I just try to write what great spirit puts in my heart. And of course there is always the chance that I will decide not to write at all, and fold up shop!

Now you might say, Why is he saying things like this, did someone write him a nasty letter or something? Actually no, in fact my feedback has been mostly all good. I just thought I would put it on the record, in case you didn't already know. I wouldn't want someone mistaking me for something I'm not. Like I said in my last post, we all are spiritual.
