Freedom

Message from aboriginal guide, Childers, 10/9/07

As we descend into the denseness of physicality, we may lose our connections to our sky brothers and sisters, to the wander lust that sets us free to uncover our breakfast wherever we choose to go. By staying in one place, we are chained to our land, to our ground and because of our lack of movement, we may feel a need to force from it everything we can get. We forget the systems that kept us alive all these years, of crop rotation, of observing the health of the land and we drive her into degradation, punish her for the lack of life being easy, of our bellies being full. In some ways she is like a beast. When we drive her in such a way she becomes old and tired. She cannot give in the ways she would like. She is not punishing us, but has been worn down. And so when we awaken to our relationships with all life, we notice the affect of our actions, our lack of love and care. We open ourselves to acknowledge that lack and we begin to know ourselves anew. We reach out to her and nourish her again and the imprints upon her begin to heal.

We can live in harmony and connection with one another. We can recognise each other's souls and spirits. We can live without driving one another to death in service to our lack. We can recognise the guilt imprinted on our souls for the harm we have done and hand it over to the great spirit. We are one. We can heal the trauma for all impacts on our freedom. When each brother holds the other's hand we create freedom. The separation between ourselves and the animals are what sewed the seeds of separation within our own species. When we attempt to divide and conquer we are facing a part of ourselves, the great spirit. Knowing our oneness within is creating our oneness outside. When we heal our separation we are truly alive and our breath and blood can flow. And so we tell you to walk together and hold hands as we create the one flow.
