Back to the Earth


I have been reading a book by Tom Brown, Jr. titled Awakening Spirits. The book is about a Native American man called Grandfather (aka Stalking Wolf) and his journey around the world to find the spiritual truths that exist among all religions. If you are new to my blog, you will soon find out that I am no stranger to religion, and I have a deep faith in God. This book is enlightening to say the least, and I highly recommend it to anyone, not just those of faith.
Awakening Spirits reveals the power of the eartch and how getting close to the earth and away from the materials will bring you closer to God. God lives everywhere, but when we are dstracted by things of the flesh, our vision of God becomes clouded and skewed. Retreating from these things of the flesh (physically or mentally) will help you move closer to and have a deeper relationship with God. The book shows breathing exercises and meditation sequences that one can use to transcend the distractions of our busy world and ultimately walk the razor's edge between the world of the flesh and the world of the spirit. A walking meditation, so to speak. Check out the book at the link to the Tracker School in my links section. It will change you...
