Be in Nature, stay in harmony with Nature, it is you\u2026Learn of Nature, then understand yourself.\u201d\u2026\u00a0 Grandmother Pa\u2019Ris\u2019Ha<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Are you in resonance with the Mother Earth? Caban is the day to give this some consideration.<\/span><\/p>\n

Grandmother Pa\u2019Ris\u2019Ha is the obvious example to me of the power and character of Caban. She has often shared thrilling and intriguing stories of her early life in the Appalachian mountains with her own grandmother. They traveled on foot over the ancient pathways, assisting the backwoods folks who had all manner of ailments. They used what they found in the mountains for their cures–\u00a0everything from maggots to leeches to roots and wildflowers. They lived the “old ways,” honoring all the gifts of nature.\u00a0 For instance, when her Grandmother sought a crystal, she went to a cave where she knew they were located and SAT until a crystal “did give-away,”\u00a0when in its own good time, it dropped onto the ground from the cave wall. \u00a0She did not hack it off with a hammer or churn the ground with a bulldozer.<\/span><\/p>\n

But Grandmother also went to the Himilayas and studied in a Buddhist monastery where no other woman had been permitted.\u00a0As her <\/span>http:\/\/www.parishaonline.com<\/span><\/a> states: <\/span>Pa\u2019Ris\u2019Ha has been acknowledged as a Tibetan reincarnation of TARA, a Bodhisattva Buddha, by Rinpoche Kalu and a Bhutanese Rinpoche, T\u2019sering Wangdi. His Holiness of Bhutan ordered a Stupa built for her (symbol of enlightenment, these holy monuments are designed with deep symbolism and sacred geometry – Filled with Buddhist relics, and other holy objects, stupas emanate blessings and peace) and has declared her director of his Dharma Center in the U.S. <\/span><\/em>The Dharma center is located at <\/span>Friendship Village in east central Ohio<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Grandmother has also told stories of time spent living with the Hopi, undergoing shamanic initiations as well as simply sharing their lifestyle and their lives. One of the stories entailed being tucked into the shape of a \u201ccannonball\u201d in a hole in the ground capped with a rock for several weeks. Many people would consider this experience downright impossible.\u00a0 But during that time Grandmother said she experienced a total ecstatic sense of being \u201cat one\u201d with the Mother Earth. Aho!<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll never forget what I saw during one of my first trips with Grandmother to the \u201chomelands\u201d of the Cherokee in North Carolina. We drove to a place in the forest where we could park our cars near a beautiful rushing stream. When\u00a0Pa’Ris’Ha got out of her car, hundreds of butterflies surrounded her.\u00a0 They didn\u2019t flock around anyone else, though there were plenty of others there.\u00a0 Only her.<\/span><\/p>\n

She has taught us that in all of nature, in every tree and every cloud, in the winds, in tornadoes and lightening, and in the Mother herself, there is an intelligence with which we can communicate. I have no doubt it is true and I appreciate the times I\u2019ve walked with Parisha and seen her practice this art of communication and its been amazing. She is a consummate Earth\u00a0 Keeper. She is a paradigmatic representation of the virtues of Caban!\u00a0 (But then\u2026..I could probably say that about her in regard to every day of the Tzolk\u2019in!)<\/span><\/p>\n

Many folks have had times when they have felt as if they were truly in communion with Nature. May we all pursue this goal with ever more vigor!\u00a0The goal is our destiny….to be Earth Keepers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Earth Mother is calling.<\/span><\/p>\n
