| Message from Don Coyhis: |
This month we feature the Meditation With Native American Elders: The Four Seasons by Don L. Coyhis. This Meditation Book is designed to help us grow in harmony with our seasons. Our seasons are not necessarily linked to the environmental seasons, as we can be in our spring season while it is snowing outside. In this book each meditation begins with a saying by an Elder, followed by a thought for the day and a prayer, concluding with your intent for the day. Every result in our lives is caused by an action. Every action we take is caused by our thinking. Our thinking is an accumulation of beliefs, habits, attitudes and expectations that we acquire during our growing up. Therefore, the results in our lives are caused by ourselves and the beliefs we have.
There are two types of will that drive the human being-God's will and our self will. Throughout the Meditation Book, the Elders always suggest that we turn our will and our lives over to the care of the Creator. By doing this, we start to transform our being.
Each day, as we read the Elder's saying, the thought and the prayer and we begin our transformation to living our lives on the Red Road.
To change the results in our lives, we need to focus daily on aligning our intent to the Great Spirit's laws, values and principles.
