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.

Every day is a lifetime


When we get up in the morning, we don't know how our day will progress, that is why it is good to have an adaptable attitude. How our day progresses may have to do with how we live it, that's why we should nurture the moment. It is said when we proceed to the next life we have no remembrance of the former. This is so we don't have too much on our mind or become overwhelmed in the life we are living. That's how we should live each day, putting away past memories, and concentrating on the moment. Inferior thoughts may arise sometimes and we should retreat from them until a time when it is more beneficial to move forward. A lot of times these thoughts arise when we are accomplishing something superior, or making progress along particular lines. Be aware of the moment, know when to proceed or retreat. Progress on matters important to you may seem slow sometimes. Make time work for you, when working on cultivating good habits. Sometimes its best to just bite off a little, other times you can take larger pieces. Regulation, moderation, cultivation are all good things. The less we become aroused by inferior thoughts the more balanced we will be, and life will be on more of an even footing for us. This brings a form of contentment and peace, no matter what is appearing in our life. Look at the duality. Be like water and fill up the deep spaces slowly so you can overcome them with time, and then flow on.
