    I opened up the Cherokee Phoenix to learn we had lost you. Crosslin was a good friend to my great grandma Maggie. Im proud to say I’m no longer a Christian and I now follow the old ways. Wado for setting me on a better path. You are missed. donadagohvi

    That gift is what he is talking about is being an empath, but on a high level. It makes you naturally a medicine man in a since... You can sense human energy, animal energy, and spirit energy. Adadoligi ale Udohiu ✌️😁

      In a sense, but it can be a long road to get back to the old way (I love that he says that, as it is how I would explain it). It's not about label, if that is the goal, then you do not understand and are not ready. If wanting to learn, there are many types of medicine but spirituality is one with earth and sky. I learned much in my life and youth, and from observing others, but the most out and away from all for several years. You make friends with the elements, respect their gifts and their power, etc. Whenever I lose my way, I ground back to the earth and sky, so that I can do what is needed. I got tears in my eyes watching this, not all of it can be taught by others, much is learned through spirit earth and sky. Hard to explain but when you do it, it's just easier to say "old way(s)". See, everything before that probably confused anyone reading. Anyway, very grateful to see this video. Resonated.

    Beautiful. I have always felt, as a spiritual, but not traditional native, that our legacy as the 1st Peoples here, that our legacy was of the spirit and the relationship we have with that universal life force in all things. I wanted to know the Creator, not just believe. I wanted to know the Truth. I hope this man, surely, has an apprentice/disciple or two. This is the Treasure of the 1st Peoples!

    I took once saw a robin and I took the idea to catch this bird. So I very slowly crept up and as I got closer it jumped up on a pine tree limb at just the right hight, I was about 8 years old. I reached out and caught the bird. Proud of what I had done I showed my mother who told me to let it go. A few years later an owl was sitting on our mailbox and again I walked over to it and it allowed me to take it home.

It had jumped up on a limb of the pine tree to be of the perfect hight that I merely reached out and took hold of the bird. And after I took it to show my mother what I had done I let the bird go and it flew away. I did pet it and to calm it down. I do not remember the bird hurting me although my mother said otherwise.
