Grandfather's Prayer for Today

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
My Creator, many years ago, when I was an arrogant, know it all young warrior I was given so many lessons to learn that I was confused and did not know where to turn. I prayed to you and you put in my path a wise grandmother who said to me "No lesson is left unlearned, it just need a little more understanding” she also said "Take each lesson into your heart and you will find the reason for it, you may not find the answer, but you will be able to reason it out in a righteous way and see the justice for having the lesson.”
My Creator, I thank you for these words, for doing this taught me humility but above all gratitude for having lessons, for they help me to grow in a just way.
Then there were times I would ask a certain kind of question and receive no immediate response. Instead he would remain motionless, and after a period of silence, he would say, "There is a period in the life of every person in which there is foolishness. When this period passes some people will grow up, remembering and using what they were told. For this we have a saying, 'When you have had enough foolishness, then you become knowledgeable and know your mistakes.' There are others who never go beyond this first stage; they remain foolish for the rest of their lives. To those people we say, 'Your foolishness will accompany you to your old age.'"

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.

Help me today to find the silence within knowing I have journeyed back to you and myself. Thank you for helping me feel whole again.

On our journey along the pathway of peace we now arrive at the last stepping-stone on our journey. This stepping stone is The Healing Stone and glows in radiant shades of lavender. It plants a seed in the seeker that awakens the seeker to the spiritual ways of healing--the highest creative spirituality. By healing it is meant being made whole, which if you think about is total healing of every level of our being. By standing on the Healing Stone this realisation comes to us in all our senses of touch, scent sound, sight, awareness, and emotions. These qualities flow into the seeker and into the material world, nourishing all creation with the Essence of Spiritual healing that leads toward peace and harmony.
The healing properties join all creation into spiritual attunement, which flows throughout Eternity. Becoming aware and absorbing the qualities of the seventh stepping stone leads to the threshold of the Great Silence that opens the way of Spiritual Peace and Harmony and give us the feeling of Gratitude and opens the door to our Vibral core, the very centre of our being. Native people continually are grateful for the gifts that they receive. On a daily basis they thank the Creator for allowing them to part of something. Giving thanks to Father Sun, Grandmother Moon, The Earth Mother, The power of the directions, and all their relations. Gratitude has to be energised before healing (making whole) can take place.

So, we have travelled along the pathway of peace back to our real self and entered the Silence, our Vibral Core,Orenda.

In the Silence,
All Creation unites and communicates,
The Spiritual way,
Where life is pure, life is fulfilling,
Life is understanding, life is sharing,
Life is abundant, life is unity, and
Life is Eternity.
The ecstasy of Spiritual Enlightenment.

The seeker of peace and harmony can go to this place any time they wish to.All they have to do is step upon the seven stepping stones which can be likened to a process which relates to
Centering—Focusing—Entering—Becoming a “whole entity".
To Centre is the Motivation. To Focus is the Procedure. To Enter is the Action. To Become is the Achievement.

As the seekers return along the Pathway of Peace they are reminded of each stone in turn.
The seventh stone reveals Spiritual Healing,
The sixth stepping stone reveals Spiritual Charity,
The fifth stepping stone reveals Spiritual Insight,
The fourth stepping stone reveals Spiritual Awareness
The third stepping stone reveals Spiritual Cleansing,
The second stepping stone reveals Spiritual Love,
The first stepping stone reveals Spiritual Faith.

GRANDFATHERS PRAYER FOR TODAY.

We continue our journey back to the self and our connection to the whole and reach the
sixth stepping stone on the pathway to peace

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
Help me today my Creator to be charitable in all the things I do. Help me to understand that if I do I will attract the things I need but not necessarily the things I think I want.

On our journey back to the self and on the Pathway to Peace we now step upon the Charity Stone, which glows in beautiful bursts of spiritual light. It plants the seed that awakens the seeker to the spiritual way of benevolence in thoughts and deeds, and beckons the seeker to dwell awhile, absorbing the qualities of the Charity stone. This stone has the same seven spiritual facets as the previous stones and standing on this stone imparts on the seeker a feeling charitable thoughts and deeds. Its radiance flows through the seeker and into the material world, nourishing it with acts of kindness and understanding. Its properties of charitable practices help unite all creation into the ways of spiritual harmony. It reminds the seeker that we can only feel peace and comfort if we realise we are not alone and we need to share our gifts with others. We have the power to attract the things in our lives that we need, but also have the power to repel and release the things we do not need. Knowing this enables the seeker to make beneficial plans and set realistic goals through the gift of sharing.

Is now the time to get off your butt and start sharing your gifts and talents with others?

GRANDFATHERS PRAYER FOR TODAY

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
My Creator help me today to look behind the mask
Of my fears, doubts, and inhibitions and see the real beauty of my personal dream.

On our journey back to the self we have stepped upon the Blood, Sun, Water, and Fertility stones on the Pathway of Peace. We have absorbed into our being the qualities and gifts each has imparted to us. We now step confidently on the fifth stepping stone on the pathway of peace-- The Blossoming Stone that glows in radiant shades of coral pink. It plants a seed in the seeker in the spiritual ways of upliftment and insight. It has the same seven facets as all the other stones. As its radiance and qualities flow through the seeker and into the material world it offers to us that life is a daily venture of seeking upliftment and intuitive impulses and reminds us that each of us have A Personal Dream. This dream is connected to the Universal Dream of Peace. Each of us has a portion of this Universal Dream of Peace. Personal success and happiness is dependent on our connection to our dream. Unless we are aware of this connection we can have disappointments that can make our living hard to define. Our connection to our dream or vision helps us enter our own individual realm of creativity, wherein lies our ambition.
May you be your dream today?

Grandfather's Prayer for Today

As we continue our journey along the Pathway of Peace we now approach the fourth stepping stone.

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
My Creator, today you showed me that growth only happens
when we appreciate ourselves for our connection to all that was, all that is, and all that will become. My Creator, thank you for allowing me to just BE.

The fourth stepping stone along the Pathway to Peace is the Fertility Stone. As we step upon it, it glows in radiant shades of green. It plants a seed that awakens all our seven spiritual senses of sound, sight, scent, taste, touch, awareness and emotions. The stone has seven facets, as do all the previous stones, allied to each one of these senses.
When we stand upon the fertility stone it is symbolic of life materialised in the physical world bringing to us the qualities of abundance and renewal. As these qualities enter the centre of our being we experience the feelings of appreciation. Appreciation nourishes our self-esteem, renewing the abundance we have been given and reminding us that we honour our own sacred space, as well as others and that we should be proud of what we are, what we were, and what we can become. We thank the ancestors and all our relations for offering their wisdom and encouragement so we can explore the abundance of life.

Grandfather's Prayer for Today-2nd Sept/o8

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY
Wise One, help me today to step forward today in faith, with love in my heart and a feeling of Kinship with all things

As we continue our journey of self-discovery we carry with us the qualities of the bloodstone with the comfortable feeling it imparted within us and become aware of the second stepping stone on the pathway to peace. The second stone is the Sun Stone. Take a deep breath and relax into the qualities of the Sun Stone which glows in radiant shades of yellow. It plants the seed in the seeker to the spiritual way of love, and beckons the seeker to dwell upon the Sun Stone
THIS SECOND STEPPING STONE also imparts the lessons of Kinship.within us. A Kinship with all things around us, in the Universe, and beyond, and a Kinship within ourselves. We are not alone; our spirit within supports us. We are part of the Great Mystery from which nothing is excluded. This feeling of Kinship sparks the inner flame of love, providing warmth and nourishment that supplements our every need.
The Sun Stone has the same seven facets that designate the powerful senses of sound, sight, scent, taste, touch, awareness, and feelings. Standing on the Sun Stone is symbolic of the life materialised in the physical world and is a daily venture in love. Its radiance of love flows throughout the seeker and into the material world. Faith and Love go hand in hand and teaches the feelings of Kinship. Faith and Love makes the world go around and enables the seeker to see the interconnection of all things and helps us all grow in peace and harmony.

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
Great One, help me to have faith that I need to feel comfortable in all I do today.

If we wish to start on our journey of self- discovery the place we have to begin is now and for the self. This is not selfish rather selfless and without a realisation that we have discover the self before we can hope to find the sacred connection and the true meaning of
"All for One, and One For All".
So let us begin on our journey and remind ourselves of the steps we have to take on the way. Let us imagine the journey is a series of stepping stones each with their own particular power that we need to integrate within and without ourselves so they become part of our very being.
Take some time today to relax, close your eyes and imagine you have approached a river, which you know you have to cross. Close by you is a series of stepping stones that stretch to the other side of the river that will enable you to cross the river.
THE FIRST STEPPING STONE is the Blood Stone and glows in radiant shades of red. It plants a seed in the seeker to the spiritual ways of faith and beckons the seeker to the first step on the journey of the self and to peace and harmony. The stone reminds us that not only do we have to have faith to make this journey but it is also the first step in learning to grow in harmony and is the feeling of comfort.
To be comfortable in all our senses of seeing, touching, hearing, smelling, tasting, feeling and being aware. Comfort can be likened to the feeling we have after eating a good meal, our senses are satisfied and we have an inner feeling of balance.
Stand on the Bloodstone and absorb the powers it imparts to you. Feel the colour red penetrate every cell in your being. The bloodstone has seven facets. Each facet designates one of the spiritual senses of sound, sight, scent, taste, touch, awareness, and emotions. Standing on the first stepping stone is symbolic of the life materialised in the physical world and is a daily venture in faith and comfort.
In absorbing the qualities of the bloodstone the seeker of truth learns that the Great Mystery, the Spiritual Essence, is connected with all things in creation and all things in creation are connected to one another. It is the impressions influenced by this interconnection that affect the experience in all creation.

Allow the radiance of the bloodstone to flow through you into the material world, uniting yourself and all creation into thoughts of faith and comfort.
