lessons on walking through
a 3d world, pg 1
When I was
12 years old I was staring into the face of a flower when I
found myself staring into the face of a most beautiful
Indian woman. Her hair was long and flowing in the wind and
her arms were stretched towards the setting sun with such
reverence that I could hear the heavens singing, rejoicing
in her touch as the light flowed out of her hands and
touched the heavens.
When she
finished. she took me into her Village and bid me to merge
with seed of life she held within her hand. I became the
seed she laid so softly upon the soil, the life inside the
seed, covered by the shell, I laid there upon the soil
watching the elements touch me, feeling the warm moisture
upon the soul, feeling a live and living energy within me, I
longed to grow, to become more than I was as a seed, so I
pushed with everything in me against that shell, struggled
as I felt it give way and live gave birth through the eyes
of 2 leaves rejoicing to have found the light.
As this
happened there was a natural instinct within me to send my
roots into the soil of this Earthly existence. Up into the
light and down into the darkness I traveled with no concept
one was less than the other, no concept that I should not
grow in the darkness even as my stems grew towards the
light.
After a time
I began feeling these longings deep inside of me that pushed
the energy up inside of me that said it was time to form
some buds. I could feel them forming. I could feel the
energy being diverted to assist me in this process. I could
see the flower I would become as if I was looking forward
and back at a distant memory. I saw myself bloom and look
out through the face of the flower... felt the seeds growing
within me.... days and nights merging, come frost and
memories of the time of sleep calling me to a time of rest,
I slowly slipped down into the soil, felt the leaves falling
down on me as a blanket, and went to sleep.... until the sun
called me again to rise, to grow, to bloom, to live.
Every lesson
stemmed from this lesson as she had me merge with every part
of Nature within her Village. And then she took me across
the seas to merge with Nature in a place that felt like
China (the lotus) There was only one lesson that didn't seem
to stem from this first lesson. And for some reason she
showed me an Indian from her Village who had gotten lost on
his journey. So angry was he beating his fist against Earth
Mothers body, and then he died. She showed me how they went
and retrieved him and the Ceremony they performed. Ahhhh,
but this is not a sharing about the death ceremony. This is
the journey I took to discover why....
I took into
my heart everything that she taught me, to walk through this
world in the way she taught me merging with everything in
Nature, finding solace in talking to the Earth and asking
her the questions no man could answer... always wondering
why would she do this for me... My dad had left the Indian
world, and I did not even know I was Indian. So why would
this beautiful Indian woman come guide me just as I was
about to enter into the Christian sector of humanity? Why?
When I was
in my 20's I was dreaming that I was standing in the rest
room when I felt my Grandmother wrap her cloak of love
around me. She held out her hand, and in her hand was a
living picture, what would look like on a television, only
3d. First I saw myself as a baby, while she held me.. with
my dad being the seed I passed through to get here. Then I
saw my Grandmother being held by her Grandmother, with her
father being the seed she passed through to get here.. On
and on it went, Grandmother to Grandmother with a male seed
in between, back some 6 generation of grandmother we
traveled until there I saw her, the one who came to guide me
standing there holding the baby that was the 6th generation
grandmother back. and she was the mother of the baby...
It was her.
It was the one who came to guide me, who told me how to walk
through this world of illusion. I was 13 generations removed
from her, so then my quest became, "Who am I that you would
travel 13 generations to come guide me? What could possibly
be so special about me that you would travel so far to walk
with me here?" And she said, "You are a great warrior
Maureen."
I said, "But
I cry all the time. Nothing here lines up with what you have
taught me. They are saying all the Indians are going to
hell, and all the Buddhist and every except for them. And I
cry all the time because their rules do not line up right. "
And she just said, "Great power in those tears Maureen,
great power in those tears." ..... ahh, so I was the weeping
warrior...
Time passed
upon the journey. I got into my 40's and found myself in a
dream in which I found myself lightly tethered to a man who,
it seemed, was stealing me from my Village. We were standing
by the water and the time had come that I was to go to his
Village. I was feeling bitterness inside my heart thinking
this is my fate. there were no tears, they would not have
served anything. This was my fate. I was lightly tethered to
him and I was going to go where he was going. There was one
other from my village who was going with me, one who felt
like a sister. He took us to a place that felt like by the
Mississippi river, to a long house there where I began my
life there with him as his betrothed, as his wife.... At the
time, when I work up from this dream I thought it was
showing me how I would never be able to discover what blood
line the one who came to guide me from within had come
through because that information had been lost...
Interesting to note, my son and I both had our heads shaved
in Mohawks when I was given this dream.
A few months
ago a friend wrote me of this vision she had been given
about me. She saw me in another life. I was the daughter of
Chief White Feather. He was a seer, and I was a seer
too, though to a lesser degree.
My father
saw what was coming to the Indian Nations, and as he would
speak to me of what was coming I could see it coming too, a
time when there would be trouble, times of madness when the
very Earth we stood upon would be in danger, when the people
would no longer know themselves and would be caught in a new
kind of madness.
There was a
Mohawk Indian. He was a brave warrior. I had no heart for
him, but my father and the wise ones were saying that his
bravery needed to be added to our bloodline for when the
time of madness came. They wanted his warrior blood added to
my seer blood..
That was
what my father was telling me, even though I was very angry
with him for sending me away from what I loved. It was at
that moment, in my friends vision, that my mother from that
life walked by.
As my friend
described this, my mother ,in that life. walked into view,
so my friend began describing her.. and in that instant, as
I an vowing to come back when my people need me, I am a
child walking behind her mother in a field of grass. As my
mother walked in front of me, so sacred were her movements
across the Earth that rainbows danced around her feet, and I
in my little steps would strive to put my feet in exactly
the same places as my mother, thus I vowed to come back when
I was needed.... and the one who came to guide me from
within was my mother 13 generations back.. meaning I
incarnated through my own blood line.
What a gift.
And what journey. 38 years have
passed since that 12 year old girl was given that
vision....... And now I know, even though I just arrived
at this knowing, I know now that I have to share this
story and share the knowledge that she gave me on how to
walk here.. It's not that I think this is for everyone,
just the ones who it is for will know.
