Grandfather Peter's Prayer for Today

GRANDFATHERS PRAYER FOR TODAY.

A wise grandmother once told me to forgive the users and takers in the world for they have taught you a lesson not to be used or taken. But she also said “Without compassion forgiveness does not work. Today may I start by forgiving myself?
---------------------------------

Forgiveness.

At this time around the time around the Winter Solstice, Christmas and the New Year there is a natural resonance that is resplendent with the song of Forgiveness. It is a quality of Spirit easily accessed, embodied, activated and experienced. Forgiveness is the key in which the song of life is sung at the Winter Solstice, just as Appreciation is at the time of the Summer Solstice.Forgiveness is, however, not something we do. It is not something we offer to another (nor our own Self). Forgiveness is a state of being, a frequency at which our Soul resonates when Forgiveness sings its song. When we are in the state of Forgiveness we may hold attention upon the presence of another (or our own Self), embracing that person in Forgiveness.When we are in the state of Forgiveness all that we place our attention upon, in a sincere attitude of acknowledgment and responsibility, dissolves in the burst of Love that comes forth from the relinquishment of our guilt, anger, pain, resentment, grudge or debt. From the release of guilt arises the possibility of apology and atonement. When we release resentment the poison it spreads through our entire interaction with the world is drained, leaving the way for understanding to grow. As we forgive the debts owed us, but never paid - be they financial, emotional or obligations - we are able to let go of betrayal and the fear that unless we are paid in full we will suffer hardship, when, in actuality, if someone has owed you (money or whatever) for over a year, and you are still alive and able to make it through another day/week/month, then really, you no longer truly require the indebted asset to survive. You have, somehow, made it. By relinquishing the grudge of debt you not only free the other party from their suffering, but your own suffering is released as well. After all, if that person could have paid you, if they were capable of it, they would have done so. If they are not capable (and I include the capability of conscience in that), they will never pay you anyway... so let it go! At that point, holding a grudge of debt only promotes you as being 'right', and with it, poisoned with mistrust, resentment, anger and pain. And this helps you how?
For Forgiveness to be active in our life does not require that we announce to the persons we hold in Forgiveness that we have done so (though, sometimes, it is appropriate that we do so). Forgiveness does not require that the other person has asked us to forgive them. It is not relevant as to whether the other person forgives us as well. The burden of judgment and resentment that is strung about the neck of us each is of our own concern and choosing. The guilt and judgment we carry we carry in our own heart. Forgiveness allows us the means of releasing this poison when we are sincere in our acknowledgment of culpability and responsibility. Forgiveness does not make 'OK' a wrong, nor is Forgiveness itself the act of atonement that may be required to reinstate balance. It does not let us 'off the hook'. Forgiveness enables us to no longer be crippled with shame and anger, so that we can embark afresh upon a new course in life, a course charted into the vast ocean of Compassion and a greater availability to the
All-That-Is that we call Life.

The souce of all religion

THE SOURCE OF ALL CREATION

IN THE ORIGINAL RELIGION.


The story of Creation from the early Stone Age reveals the source of all religion. If we return to the source we can again connect ourselves with the healing and unifying powers of the Universe. This places us in the right relationship to the Whole. This place is our very own centre in which we are the children of the Earth and the Sun, and be able to live in harmony with the visible and the invisible. The people of the early Stone Age understood and experienced their lives as an integral part of the family of creation amidst all things on the Earth, the plants, the stones and the animals. These relationships allowed them to access freely all powers contained within the Sacred Circle of Life.

Its caretakers, The Native American Shamans, are revealing the primeval religion at this time. It should not be misinterpreted as a super- imposition of their philosophy and way of life on our culture. Their duty was to keep the ancient wisdom within their campfires and to pass it on when the time was right. This time is now. But it was not only Native American wisdom that was to be passed on at this time. Their wisdom was common knowledge to all people at that time, for it is the wisdom from the SOURCE.

In the early religion, the story of creation employs the image of a circle, which possesses the power to cleanse all dogmatic religions of their false and incomplete doctrines. This true religion represents the intact power of reality for us who live in the modern world of separateness, tensions and countless contradictions. It is the natural way for us to explore as it opens up naturally our personal relationship with the Whole and to discover our origin without preconceived ideas and dogmas. Religions that set up dogmas have always needed to rationally explain and prove themselves. It is as if they have to justify their beliefs at the expense of others. Just think about the Crusades or the Inquisition.

If we try to understand the early Stone Age wisdom and the Medicine Wheel as well as ancient Shamanism with only the help of our rational modernistic minds we would fall back into this dogmatic religion and would be unable to honour and respect its oneness and universality. Only when we start to reawaken the fourfold powers of our consciousness will we be able to live in harmony with these forces. These four forces, powers or paths mark our relationship with reality and enable us to be centred within ourselves.

These four paths are commonly referred in Shamanic terms as the Sacred Four and can be seen on the Medicine Wheel above.

: The path of the East is the power of the SPIRIT

: The path of the West is the power of the Will and Body

: The path of the South is the power of the Emotions.

: The path of the North is the power of the Mind

Each one is considered sacred because it heals and leads us to the Whole.

The power of the Medicine Wheel, wherein the sacred four leads us to the centre and the Whole, and outwards to every direction helps us to become whole and completely unfold our consciousness. It is power or medicine to enable us to re-connect the two halves of our brain: the left side that carries our sensory data and governs our waking state, and the right side that produces our dreams and governs our instincts.

The Medicine Wheel lifts the two “homilies” of evolution to a new plane of consciousness by bring together “Homo Fabians” and “Homo Sapiens” resulting in “Homo Divinians”

GRANDFATHER’S PRAYER FOR TODAY

My Creator, I thank you for all the remembering

dreams, for they help me dream of my tomorrows.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




I am an old woman now. The buffaloes and black-tail deer are gone, and our Indian ways are almost gone. Sometimes I find it hard to believe that I ever lived them.

My little son grew up in the white man's school. He can read books, and he owns cattle and has a farm. He is a leader among our Hidatsa people, helping teach them to follow the white man's road.

He is kind to me. We no longer live in an earth lodge, but in a house with chimneys, and my son's wife cooks by a shove.

But for me, I cannot forget our old ways.

Often in summer I rise at daybreak and steal out to the corn fields, and as I hoe the corn I sing to it, as we did when I was young. No one cares for our corn songs now.

Sometimes in the evening I sit, looking out on the big Missouri. The sun sets, and dusk steals over the water. In the shadows I see again to see our Indian village, with smoke curling upward from the earth lodges, and in the river's roar I hear the yells of the warriors, and the laughter of little children of old.

It is but an old woman's dream. Then I see but shadows and hear only the roar of the river, and tears come into my eyes. Our Indian life, I know, is gone forever.

My father, you have made promises to me and my children. If the promises had been made by person of no standing, I should not be surprised to see his promises fail. But you, who are so great in riches and power, I am astonished that I do not see your promises fulfilled!

I would have been better pleased if you had never made such promises, than that you should have made them and not performed them ...

GRANDFATHER’S PRAYER FOR TODAY.

Thank You, My Creator, for allowing me to walk the Red Road of Life. Please walk with me today.

You Know, our lives are run by constantly having to make choices and decisions. Every choice we make today will carry with it the consequences of that choice or decision. Every decision we make today will carry with it the consequences of that decision and be felt for seven generations into the future. We are also feeling the effect of decisions and choices made by our ancestors seven generations in the past.

With this in mind all we can do is ask the question of ourselves, "Do we want to be happy or do we want to be right?" Which ever one we choose will have a lot to do with the consequences we will experience today.

If today was the last day of your life, what choices and what decisions would you make?

GRANDFATHER’S PRAYER FOR TODAY.

I pray today that all of us will take time out to see, feel, work, and create our own visions.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Ancient One sat in the shade of his tree in front of his cave. Red
People came to him and he said to Red People,
"Tell me your vision." And Red People answered,
"The elders have told us to pray in this manner, and that manner,
and it is important that only we pray as we have been taught for
this has been handed down to us by the elders."
"Hmmmm," said the Ancient One.
Then Black People came to him and he said to Black People,
"Tell me your vision."
And Black People answered,
"Our mothers have said to go to this building and that building and
pray in this manner and that manner. And our fathers have said to
bow in this manner and that manner when we pray. And it is important
that we do only this when we pray."
"Hmmmm," said the Ancient One.
Then Yellow People came to him and he said to Yellow People,
"Tell me your vision."
And Yellow People answered,
"Our teachers have told us to sit in this manner and that manner and
to say this thing and that thing when we pray. And it is important
that we do only this when we pray."
"Hmmmm," said the Ancient One.
Then White People came to him and he said to White People,
"Tell me your vision." And White People answered, "Our Book has told
us to pray in this way and that way and to do this thing and that
thing, and it is very important that we do this when we pray."
"Hmmmm," said the Ancient One.
Then Ancient One spoke to the Earth and said,
"Have you given the people a vision?"
And the Earth said,
"Yes, a special gift for each one, but the people were so busy
speaking and arguing about which way is right they could not see the
gift I gave each one of them."
And the Ancient One asked same question of Water and Fire and Air
and got the same answer.
Then Ancient One asked Animal, and Bird, and Insect, and Tree, and
Flower, and Sky, and Moon, and Sun, and Stars, and all of the other
Spirits and each told him the same.
Ancient One thought this was very sad. He called Red People, Black
People, Yellow People, and White People to him and said to them.
"The ways taught to you by your Elders, and your Mothers and
Fathers, and Teachers, and Books are sacred. It is good that you
respect those ways, for they are the ways of your ancestors. But the
ancestors no longer walk on the Face of the Earth Mother. You have
forgotten your own Vision. Your Vision is right for you but no one
else. Now each of you must pray for your own Visions, and be still
enough to see them, so you can follow the way of the heart. It is a
hard way. It is a good way.

.GRANDFATHER’S PRAYER FOR TODAY
My Creator help me understand the wisdom of when a giant step into the unknown is necessary, or when a step by step approach is warranted.

We are often told to have faith in all that we do knowing we are supported every step of the way. This is true in most cases; we would be foolish to attempt to climb a ladder without proper support or someone holding the bottom rung for us. But at other times we are advised to have faith in attempting something we have never done before, even though it may seem foolish or impossible to do. So how can we understand the wisdom of what to do when presented with these dilemmas?

We can do no better than be aware of some of the wise laws that have served many in the past.

THE LAW OF BALANCE.

(Finding a middle way).“To walk in Balance” is an old Native American saying. Balance applies to our Body, Mind, Emotions and Spirit and to all levels of our being. Anything we do, we can under do or overdo. Our Earth walk can be likened to a pendulum. If our actions or habits swing too far to one side they will inevitably swing an equal amount to the other side. The key is to try to keep the swings either way to a minimum, to find the middle way, “To Walk in Balance”

THE LAW OF CHOICES.

Reclaiming our Power. We are all burdened and blessed by the great gift and responsibility of Free Will-the power of choice. Our future is in the large part based on the choices we make now, at this moment. We cannot always control our circumstances, but we can and do choose the responses and decisions we make to whatever arises. By reclaiming the power of choice and not allowing ourselves to be a victim of circumstances, we can find the courage to live fully in the world-To stand tall.

THE LAW OF PROCESS.

Taking life one step at a time. Life can be likened to a journey, a process. We should try to break up our life’s journey or any process in our lives into a series of small steps to be taken one by one, to reach our goal. For process transcends time and teaches us patience. Each step is based on a solid foundation of careful preparation, before taking the next step. In doing so we learn to trust ourselves better, and enjoy our unfolding potential.

THE LAW OF PRESENCE.

Living in the moment. Time is a paradox, stretching between the past and into the future. It has no reality, only in our own minds. For time is a convention of thought and language, a social agreement. But here is a greater truth, WE HAVE ONLY THIS MOMENT.THE PAST IS A MEMORY and THE FUTURE IS BASED ON WHAT WE DO IN THIS MOMENT.

THE LAW OF COMPASSION.

Awakening our Humanity. Unlike many religious dogmas, there will never be a “Judgement Day”. The Creator, the cosmos, the universe, does not judge us. It only provides consequences and lessons and opportunities to balance and learn through the law of cause and effect. No lesson is left unlearned; it just needs a little more understanding. COMPASSION is the recognition that we are all doing the best we can within the limits of our current beliefs, abilities and capacities.

THE LAW OF FAITH.

Trusting in Spirit. Our direct link to Universal Wisdom is our faith, reminding us we know more than we have ever read, heard or studied and we are full of potential. We have only to look, listen and trust that the Universal Spirit is working through us all. That everything is as it should be, and on schedule.

THE LAW OF EXPECTATION.

Expanding our Reality. Our thoughts are Energy, we move toward that which we can imagine but not beyond. What we assume, expect or believe creates and influences our experience. If we can expand our deepest beliefs about what is possible we can change our experience of life and unlock our true potential.

THE LAW OF INTEGRITY.

Living our Truth. Integrity means living and acting in complete alignment with the sacred spiritual laws and with our highest vision. With integrity in our hearts we respect, and honour others and ourselves. We can accept who we are and express our own interior reality, inspiring others, not with words but by our example

THE LAW OF ACTION.

Moving into Life. No matter what we feel we know. No matter how much we talk about what we know. No matter what are our potential gifts and talents, only ACTION brings them into life. Many of us understand the concepts of commitment, love, courage and love. But do we really know what we can do. For only doing leads to understanding. Only ACTION turns knowledge into wisdom.

THE LAW OF CYCLES.

Dancing to Natures Song. The Natural World and Nature move in rhythms, cycles and patterns. The passing of the seasons, the movement of the stars, and the ebb and flow of the tides. The seasons do not push one another. The clouds do not race the wind across the sky. All things happen in their own good time and when they are ready to happen. Rising and falling and rising like the Ocean Waves in the cycles of time.

THE LAW OF SURRENDER.

Embracing a Higher Will. Surrender means acceptance. Accepting this moment, this body, and this life with open arms. Surrender means getting out of our own way and living in accord with a higher will, expressed as the wisdom of the heart. It does not mean just passive acceptance; surrender uses every challenge as a means of spiritual growth and expanded awareness.

THE LAW OF UNITY.

Remembering Our Connection. Each of us are on this Earth at this time as separate beings with diverse destinies; but just like each raindrop makes up the seas on this planet, so are we each part of the Ocean of Awareness in the Body of the Creator. Find love and inner peace deep within the highest truth that we are all one Family. Leave behind the baggage of fear, envy, greed and resentment: fly aloft on the wings of understanding to enter the boundless Land of Compassion. Enjoy the Laws for we are all. part of them. Life is Unity; Life is Equality, for Eternity

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY
May we never forget that what we do today has been influenced by what we did yesterday and will influence what we do tomorrow and seven generations into the future.

THE PROMISE OF OUR TOMORROWS
The promise of our tomorrows depends on how we honour the blessings that are ours today.
Can you hear the voices of the children yet unborn.
Do they call to you with gratitude, or do you hear their scorn?
Are we so wrapped up in taking that we forget to give?
Do we waste the abundance of resources and forget how the children will live?
Have we killed the promise of tomorrows yet to be?
Or will we stop the plunder of greed’s insanity?
The children of the future sing out in the night.
Their song asks for mercy, a release from their plight.
You can make a difference, you can show you care.
By honouring all the blessings you have,
IF YOU DARE!
Have courage and be proud of all the love you can give.
It is felt by the children yet to live.

I believe-that you can keep goinglong after you can't.I believe-that we are responsible for what we do,no matter how we feel.

I believe-that either you control your attitudeor it controls you.

I believe-that regardless of how hot andsteamy a relationship is at first,the passion fades and there hadbetter be something else to takeits place.

I believe-that heroes are the peoplewho do what has to be donewhen it needs to be done,regardless of the consequences.

I believe-that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
Thank you my Creator for the gift of Air.
I breathed deeply today and felt your life-force within me.

NIYAN (AIR)

Keyword---LIFE FORCE
Tradition
Air is one of the four elemental sprits. The air that we breathe is said to be the soul of the individual, the soul of humanity. It is the essence of our spirit. The Creator is in each breath of air we take into our lungs. He is in us and everywhere, the negative and positive of life itself. Every breath we take has been used and recycled by another life form before us-- maybe an animal, plant, fish or even a dinosaur. Just think you are breathing air that was once used by your ancestors and by the great teachers and wise ones. Feel honoured that you are sharing the breath that Buddha, Jesus Christ once breathed into their lungs. For they also shared the breath of life from the Creator.

Message from Inyan.
As one of the four sacred elements, I support and sustain you. The motion of Skan speaks to you through me, as I am ever changing. Yet I lead you to the One Source, for the breath you draw to sustain your own personal being is shared by the entire living world. Just think on this!
My path leads directly to the one who loves you. Know this, and acknowledge your Source with each breath. Inhale the force of the dream from which you come. Feel me as I permeate every cell in your body. Recognise the presence of all that share in this dream. Exhale this love into the world, for this is the gift I give to you.

Guidance and Reflection
Breath in with gratitude and joy all that life has to offer you. Become conscious of the life-giving properties of the air surrounding you. Even though we as a human family are suffering from the pollution and poisons we have put in the air, it is up to us all to do our utmost to clean up the air, for future generations. For it may be to late if we leave it up to them. We can start by using our thoughts of beauty, joy, peace, and love and extend them around the world and in everything we do. Do this and you will be circulating these thoughts to all our brothers and sisters.
If you feel you are not living your life fully, then practise breathing in a little air at a time, slowly increasing the flow with each breath. Call on the Dolphin, and this friend will teach you about Life force. Let your lungs expand with full, deep breaths, just like the dolphin. As you do, allow your consciousness of life to expand within you and enter into all that life has to offer you. You have the right to "breathe in" all that you can and to experience the joy of being alive.
Breath is like a prayer. The Creator is in each breath you take, and your thoughts and intentions are in each exhalation. In times of stress, breathe deeply concentrating on your breathing process, letting the air circulate throughout, relaxing each part of your body in turn. We share the same air with everyone; remember you are breathing in the same air the wise ones once breathed. Let us pray we will give honour to them and there will always be enough for everyone.

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
My Creator, teach me today to know the true meaning of compassion.

Do we really know what compassion is? Very often we get compassion mixed up with sympathy. Sympathy is often defined into getting into another's feelings to share their feelings. Compassion goes much further. I believe it is not so much in getting into another's feelings but to understand that we all have our own feelings and the sharing comes in the unconditional support we can give to each other in times of grief. This is much in evidence today with the needless slaughter of innocent people, especially the children, in the world today. The outgoing solidarity of grief and the support for those close to them in their grief is a good example of compassion.
The elders and wise religious leaders say one never really knows compassion unless one has suffered and sacrificed oneself for the good of all. One never can learn and understand what unconditional love really is unless one has suffered the lack of love.
Maybe we should start by loving ourselves more and being a bit more compassionate to ourselves. By stopping beating ourselves up we may find how to stop beating up on others.

May our tears of compassion be felt to all who need our unconditional love!

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
Thank you my Creator for allowing me to be different, but may I always remember
"We are all one Tribe"

To most of us these words make logical sense. When we look at our brothers and sisters of the human family we are pretty well the same. We are born with two arms and two legs, we all have a head on our shoulders. We all need to eat and go to the toilet. We all also have part of the Great Spirit within us. Maybe it is this sameness that gets us into trouble and we tend to take it for granted.
In this world we seem to concentrate on the differences we perceive, which lead to separation. We are all very quick to be judgmental about the differences, be it religious beliefs, cultural background, language, ethnic origin, and the colour of ones skin.
The old ones gave honour to the differences in each of us. When they sat in circle they acknowledged each of us came from the same source, but each person saw every situation from a different perspective. By giving honour to everyone's point of view and there being a right to have a variety of opinions, everything could be discussed, resulting invariably in the right decision that benefited the whole.
Next time we are quick to voice an opinion or judge another maybe we should imagine ourselves in that person's shoes and try to see the picture as they see it.
We may see we are pretty much the same after all!

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY.
I closed my eyes today, and in the silence, found you waiting there for me. Thank you My Creator for waiting.

Our eyes can only see our beliefs. Our beliefs cause us to make assumptions, draw conclusions and cause confusion. Our five senses are very limiting. The Creator has a way of allowing us to see or know the spiritual world. This is called the Sixth Sense. The Sixth Sense is like a radar system; our personal radar system. It will help us "see" opportunities and help us avoid disaster. This Sixth Sense is a direct connection to the Creator. We must learn to listen to it. We must learn to trust it. We must learn to act on it even if our head says differently. We must learn to look at things through our spiritual eyes, for they are also the eyes of the Great One.
BE STILL, CLOSE YOUR EYES, AND SEE FROM YOUR HEART, AND YOU WILL SEE YOUR TRUTH!

GRANDFATHER'S PRAYER FOR TODAY

A prayer for the New Year

My Creator, hear my prayer! I ask that whenever the leaders of the world's peoples confer together to make decisions that effect us all, that they use their power wisely. May they always remember:
'What goes around, comes around'

Wisdom of the Circle
I cannot help but wonder where all the people are who were so supportive of the original teachings. I think the shift in the energy of how and what was taught has changed so and many are disillusioned from it. All things are changing in this world so fast we all need to keep our eyes focused on the outcome and what it will do to affect the future. Those people who cannot walk into the next world without control and material issues will not be able to function for the good of all. People of competitive nature will not be able to control or use mind strategy to control others to do there bidding.
The teachings are for all the people and are there to share so we need to continue to do this. Community is what will come out of all of this work and change. People will learn that in order to be accepted they must first earn the right to that and cannot walk on the backs of others to obtain power. People are more aware of the issues that motivate the greedy and will make a protection of energy to keep this sort of negative energy from harming their circle. It will take strong leaders and ones not afraid to confront others and sit and talk these issues out. People will be asking to discuss their personal issues and to make peace within the hoop of community in order to survive. The talking sticks will be used for this and four mediators will sit in council. A consensus will be reached and the issue will then be dismissed never to be brought up again in council. If this is not agreed on by all then the one who cannot live with this will have a choice to leave or conform for the good of the circle.
This is the way to keep a strong and whole circle. All it takes is a person, who is running their issues and draining energy from the circle for there own use and not as a healing, to destroy the work of many who have agreed to live in harmony.

May we never forget that what we do today will influence what happens tomorrow and what we did yesterday.

THE PROMISE OF OUR TOMORROWS
The promise of our tomorrows depends on how we honour the blessings that are ours today.
Can you hear the voices of the children of the children yet unborn.
Do they call to you with gratitude, or do you hear their scorn?
Are we so wrapped up in taking that we forget to give?
Do we waste the abundance of resources and forget how the children will live?
Have we killed the promise of tomorrows yet to be?
Or will we stop the plunder of greed’s insanity?
The children of the future sing out in the night.
Their song asks for mercy, a release from their plight.
You can make a difference, you can show you care.
By honouring all the blessings you have,
IF YOU DARE!

GRANDFATHER PETER
