| PRESENTS THE POWER OF ONENESS and it is a call for powerful people who are ready to change the world now!
Our purpose(s) for the Mandala Transformation Foundation, Inc. is
to share the ancient and eternal wisdom of native American elders and
other spiritual leaders. Through transformative ceremonies we raise
our consciousness and serve to protect the sacred sites, mitigate earth
changes and most importantly this process serves to in depth an in
depth understanding and realization of the oneness between people of
all nations.
Our purpose is to preserve the sacredness of anthropological cross-cultural
ceremonies which protect, honor and include five elements: Earth, Wood,
Water, Fire and Air. these sacred ceremonies include the purification
of the body, mind and spirit.
Many native American Indians, Elders and Medicine people are enlightened
beings who carry ancient knowledge and wisdom. Many tribes believe
they originally came from inside the Earth... One of these is the Northern
Cheyenne tribe who carry songs for every occasion in life that expresses
gratitude for all life.
Mythologies and traditions from cultures all over the world ranging
from the Native Americans to the Maori of New
Zealand, from the Norwegian ancient lore to the Tibetan monks
of central Asia all speak of an
inner world as the source of civilization. These cultural mythologies
have resurfaced time and time again in popular stories and fables but
all come from a core of truth. It is this kernel of truth which animates
our primal being and rejuvenate our higher spiritual centers as we
seek to reconnect with our true source at the heart of our mother which
gave us life, planet Earth.
A sixth generation drum keeper for his family and the Northern Cheyenne
tribe is Burton Fisher Jr., his native name is White Buffalo Stands
which was given to him by his grandfather, a ceremonial man. White
Buffalo Stands is carrying and transmits an ancient lineage of spiritual
teachings and ceremonies by his instructor and his instructor's instructor....and
so on back into the past centuries by these elders. He stated:
"In our cultural, beliefs, visions and dreams are respected and
adhered to especially if they come to you in a ceremony or you are
a spiritual person. In our tribe we truly believe that our beginning
as human beings we came from Bear Butte, which we call "Na wa wes".
This is near Sturgis, South Dakota.
This is our sacred mountain where centuries ago a prophet Sweet Medicine
had a vision and a dream that guided and protected our tribe for its
survival. This is where he attained our ancient sacred ceremonials
for prayer to receive healing, guidance and protection for all human
beings and to be grateful for all living creatures, nature, mother
Earth, water, air and the sky. We honor all of these spirits with respect
and prayer and thus awaken ourselves so we become one with nature and
Creator and preserve this for our children, grandchildren and our great
grandchildren. In time past and through the centuries these beliefs
have been ignored or forgotten. Because of this, mother Ea rth has
been ravaged, misused and neglected. The Northern Cheyenne people have
always been in touch with these teachings and beliefs.
I met a lady whom I met by happenstance at a ceremony that she had
organized at Mt.Shasta where I had been asked to drum and sing. Upon
talking to her, I realized that it was the creators will that I met
her for we were sharing our visions and dreams that directly related
to Sweet Medicine and the White Buffalo Calf Woman visions, beliefs,
dreams and teachings. We both agreed that mother Earth needed healing
and to be restored through prayers. Her vision and dreams were similar
to mine. We saw the need to raise the consciousness of humanity while
initiating sacred ceremonies for the people. By ceremonies serve to
spiritually integrate ourselves and help us to become one with ourselves,
nature and Creator.
I
have seen the places around Mt.Shasta area and visited the local
tribes. Unfortunately many of them are fragmented in separation
separation by their location and tribal differences. Viviana and I
traveled around, asking many native people who are enrolled in tribes
and who are the real ceremonial people. We have come to understand,
and as many others, that because of the cultural disintegration, self-proclaimed
shamans and the loss of integrated community many of the local tribes
do not trust each other and are also distrustful of "outsiders".
Because of this the local tribal people are very protective of their
individual families. Our meetings proved to be productive for they
recognized us to be grounded, up-front and honest. Subsequently they
invited us to pray with them and to eat with them which was an honor
for us. They were open to meet with us and discuss participation
in the future. We agreed to honor and acknowledge that all forms
of prayer(s), teachings and s piritual traditions are valid and that
all genuine and sincere prayer(s) pay respect and honor to the Creator.
We established a genuine trust and friendship. They recognized and
indigenous elders gave us permission to do our purposed ceremonies
at the Stewart Mineral Springs and at the Pluto cave. We were deeply
honored that few of the elders choose to participate in our various
ceremonies. We look forward with confidence that in the immediate future
we can participate and learn from their own unique ceremonies!
After our ceremony all of the people were grateful for doing this
because it brought them back to the power of the ancient prayers and
songs. This brought tears to many of the participants. They remembered
and awakened their own spirit. For this I was deeply touched and grateful
because this reaffirmed and acknowledged the power of our ancient and
eternal healing ceremonies.
I
would like to thank you Viviana for having this dream and vision
for humanity and for having the determination to follow her heart
and bringing my dreams of healing into her circle and her into
and on my path on this red road."
