This is the commission given to me by the mystic medicine chief 'silver bear'. When you walk in darkness it is no use carrying a lantern, whose light cannot be seen. For, then, every step you take will be a hesitation into the unknown, where any tiny pebble on the Path may cause you to trip or stumble, or the slightest impediment, a cause for you to give up and abandon the journey to try, perhaps, another path. So make a lantern, lit from the Red Indian fire and whose light shines clear for the way you've come to be seen ...

This is the commission given to me by the mystic medicine chief 'silver bear'. When you walk in darkness it is no use carrying a lantern, whose light cannot be seen. For, then, every step you take will be a hesitation into the unknown, where any tiny pebble on the Path may cause you to trip or stumble, or the slightest impediment, a cause for you to give up and abandon the journey to try, perhaps, another path. So make a lantern, lit from the Red Indian fire and whose light shines clear for the way you've come to be seen and marked, and the way ahead to hold no fear for others who come after you to walk with an assurance, seeing by light from a torch you have left. For those who walk this Path should not be left to grope in the dark when light can make them aware that the Path is beautiful and the steps they take can be a choreography of beauty, too. For this Path is the Beauty Way, the beautiful way, where all who will may Dance in Beauty around their own hearth fire what they need to light the Way is a lantern that is bright. So make one. Lit from the torch you have been given. The eight-rayed Torch, the flame within that illuminates the eight directions and the eight dimensions. Make One. Be a Sun, Grandfather. (This book is a component of that 'lantern'). Chapter Two: Tuning the Senses - The power to do shamanic work is both within you and outside you and is readily accessible for channelling through you. Your inner resources include the power of thought and imagination, and the creative force of your spirit energy. They provide vitality, strength and determination, a supply of individual potentials which, however dormant or neglected, can be awakened, and your own well of wisdom from which to obtain direction and inspiration. These inner resources constitute your power, or what American Indian shamans called 'medicine'. The outside forces are none other than the Powers of the Universe that are contained within a great web of energies, in which everything that exists has life and is interconnected through its Life Force, and in which all are mutually supportive. Spirit is the invisible essence of whatever is manifested. It is the aliveness in every living thing, which provides the energy for it to express its separate identity. But although spirit flows through all forms it is largely 'unknown' because it is hidden behind the apparent physical 'appearance' of things. Modern science has no knowledge of the nature of spirit because, unlike matter, it cannot be seen or measured. It is so elusive that it cannot be dissected by the logical mind either, because it transcends the intellect. Spirit is 'nothing' yet, paradoxically, it is in every living thing. Modern science has an inadequate and incomplete understanding of the nature of human life itself because it tends to be concerned solely with the physical and ignores the spiritual, assigning it to the province of the theologian where it has rested on 'faith' and belief in the supernatural. Yet spirit was known to shamans before any organized religion determined what was and was not to be believed or experienced, and decreed that the knowledge would be available only through a privileged priesthood. Spirit, once unveiled, opens up a whole new realm of experience. Living is no longer a perplexity of chance and coincidence, but takes on real meaning and purpose. We have all been brainwashed - conditioned by society and culture and materialistic science and its technology - to look little further than beyond our noses. We have been manipulated into believing that the Earth is a huge globe of inanimate matter - just a chunk of rock orbiting through space. Minerals within it are there to be taken; trees are timber with which to make paper; animals are flesh and bones, to be hunted or factory-farmed for food, or to be experimented on. Shamans have always had a different perspective. They see everything in existence as having purpose and being charged with power - pulsating with lif
