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.

Pick and choose your thoughts, and then laugh!

What thoughts do you wish to be in your head or do you give power to? How about the thoughts you read? I have been reflecting a lot lately about what I write, and also about what I read. If you see or hear a thought that doesn't empower you, or make you feel good, just look at it and let it go. Those that do make you feel better, say to yourself yea! I can be empowered with that, or that fits into my scheme of things. Thoughts are images so maybe you want to work with that particular image in your head. Never struggle with it, just let it happen, or let it go.

In my case I take myself way to seriously sometimes, as we all do from time to time. After all god knows I'm not a saint, and if I was, it is said that in order to be a saint you have to have been a sinner. That's why I like Brian Walkers Blog. At the top he has sacred, profane, sacred, profane. I like the drift, two sides of a coin if you will. A little humour and sarcasm doesn't hurt either. So on that note I have decided to diversify a bit and start including some witty, humorous, and cynical stuff, along with other tidbits. This will include stuff by Mark Twain and many other's. Life's to short. Yes I will still be beating the spiritual, ecological and ethnic drum from time to time, but hey it's all good. Not that anyone reads this stuff anyway. And if at times you encounter a little profanity remember, one of two sides of the same coin. One thing you can be sure of, it will always be thought provoking.
