Gifts from the Indigenous: Six Awarenesses & Six Doings

This work offers six awarenesses and six practices we can gain from an exposure to the Amerindian world view. A series of specific awareness, such as "Shamanic bone soul" and actions such as  "mandalic walking" will gift us with an enriching and  complimentary world view. Drawing upon his own symbolic experiences and after years of study, the author presents the essence of  what he has learned. This work also makes use of two recent projects, interpreting markings on a stone tablet found near the Shenandoah River in Virginia, as well as a natural monolithic sculpture at Pin Bluff in Alabama. We are invited to obtain a grasp of the Indigenous world view, so that we may expand our own sense of the possibilities of this universe and live a fuller life.
