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.

Trust and Gratitude


Sometimes we just have to trust the the higher power, our higher selves, or great spirit, for guidance. Times can be really tough, and events can trigger us into feeling down or unhappy. When we are in these situations we try everything we can to advance correctness, but sometimes we run into obstacles. To put it simply we try too hard. When faced with this situation retreat and take a rest. Give it up to the higher power for a while, with trust that it will work out.

If possible keep the ego uninvolved, by stilling restless thoughts. Once we identify something that needs to be corrected in ourselves or others, gentle but ceaseless penetration is the key. Like the wind blowing steadily in the same direction wearing away doubts, and inferior ego driven qualities.

At times of darkness, gratitude for all the good things in your life can bring in some light. Just remember that you are one with the higher power who embodies the father, mother and eternal love. You have spiritual help all around you, and it doesn't hurt to ask or pray for help. Don't try to do it all yourself. Let go of any dark thoughts and aggressive attempts to make things right. Be grateful for the lessons that can redirect your path to a more beneficial outcome.
