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.

HARMONY



When there is Right Effort, Right Mindfulness and Right
Concentration, then one is fearless. There is fearlessness because
there is nothing to be frightened of. One has the courage to look at
things and not take them in the wrong way; one has the wisdom to
contemplate and reflect upon life; one has the security and
confidence of sila, the strength of one's moral commitment and the
determination to do good and refrain from doing evil with body and
speech. In this way, the whole thing holds together as a path for
development. It is a perfect path because everything is helping and
supporting; the body, the emotional nature (the sensitivity of
feeling), and the intelligence. They are all in perfect harmony,
supporting each other.

Mental development,,,the three steps working together........in harmony.
I love Buddhism .....for the fact that only one goal is not attainable!!!! One must place a fearless effort on the Noble Eightfold Path....not only on the mental...but on the ethical and in the wisdom of the teachings. Oh my gosh........so much work to do!!
I have been really trying to absorb the 'attachment' teachings from the Buddha I am on day 5 off attachment....Not all is lost....I totally understand how we bring on our own suffering.... it is the cutting of the chords....the letting go~ that I struggle with. I know that when this is all said and done....I will be like the lotus flower. I will have emerged from the the mud, the muck, the darkness......I will bring my life back into balance ...into harmony. It will beauiful.

Love & peace to you Thunder~
