Where Does Ceremony Come From
as told by The White Wolf Woman
 
 
It comes from the Vision of Great Spirit. It comes from greedy and vain People. It comes from tradition. It comes from people who want to share. From the word legal. From people who want to control. It is the way of belief and hope. From Prayer and the voice of spirits. From the four directions, and earth, wind, air and fire. From Ceremonial leaders that walk as holy persons. In this world we are all apart of thought. We are all taught from the parents. Each one of us looks to someone to learn. In the spiritual teachings we all learn from the teachers. The teachers are ones who have a message to teach.

I think it is a funny thing when we give our Life to one who teaches. I feel that for a long time people have been Learning from ones who are vain and self-centered. We as human kind all depend on someone and we call that person a teacher. Ceremony or ritual or spiritual teachings are very important to each person, as are the books that are written or the movies we watch. Along with the teachers, who make us who we are? Where does the right to teach come from and how do we learn Ceremony?

That is a good question. In a Medicine Wheel of any kind or the Mystery Schools of Life teachers know. Old ones teach them and they pass the words on to others. Sacred is where Ceremony comes from.

One important thing to keep in mind when you are Learning is, "What will you know when you are done Learning?" The following are some questions to ask about teachings:

1) Is it Truth? Where does the Truth come from?

2) Do the teachings work for you?

3) Do the teachings bring warmth and good to people?

4) Does your Life Change for the better?

5) Does the teaching you follow help and strengthen others?

6) What can a Ceremony do to help, and does it help bring Peace to others?

7) Are you filled with joy and a good Life after the teachings are added to your Life?

How you learn is up to you. We are free to read and know anything we choose in this Life. How Ceremony and belief comes to be is up to the teacher and the student. Sometimes the Ceremony is a gift to the person who knows the Ceremony, and sometimes a lot of time has been spent Learning from the master teachers or the Elders. A Ceremony is passed on and sometimes a Ceremony comes from a teacher of Sacred truths. The work of each person to learn Ceremony must be Sacred. Sacred is the answer.

Ways of Sacred:

1) Clean mind - no pain or anger, hate, wrongdoing,or hurting
others.

2) Be able to live up to the needs of others.

3) No record of offense with the law of the land.

4) Clear sexual habits. Good marriage and relations with others.

5) Honor of all people's beliefs and Respect for the teachings they walk with.

6) A strong connection with the Great Spirit/Creator/God. Able to teach words of spirit that heal, strengthen and guide the people.

7) Knowing the ways of Spiritual Truths, the interaction of the four directions, and the seven Mysteries of Life.

8) Walking as a hollow bone - to be filled with the Good of Life and guide every day with Truth and Impeccability.

When One is Sacred there is much more to learn. When one brings forth Ceremony One is responsible for the outcome. When One teaches One guides and leads, setting an example and answering to oneself and the Great Spirit.

Ceremony is the actions of Prayer and Knowledge. It is to be taught and shared by ones that care and are responsible for the people who Need.

Ceremony is Sacred!

Aho!
