One of the best ways you can connect with the Earth is through music.  We like to use music from the Earth Keeper people to connect with the Earth, especially when it is music composed and delivered in a sacred manner.  There are many excellent indigenous artists who share their talents these days.  

Listen to this beautiful tribute to Mother Earth sung in the Iroquois language by Joanne Shenandoah.  It is also important to note that while native languages are pleasing to the ear and the Heart to hear, many are also endangered.  

We have another sneak peek shared from our book, "The Earth is the Classroom, Life is the Course, Here is the Handbook".  It is "A Story of Hanuman and a Lesson in Oneness" which has been excerpted and summarized from this book.  This story and lesson are both beautiful and painful, reflecting an exquisite and very personal experience of the author.  We hope you enjoy it.

"Awakening" is one of our favorite songs by Native American artists Verdell Primeaux and Johnny Mike.  

This is a moving video of Native American sign language expressing the "Spirit of One" song from Jana Mashonee's Grammy nominated album, "American Indian Story".  Jana Mashonee has an incredible voice.  This young student gives a wonderful demonstration of Native American sign language.  It's a great video! 

We have updated Johannes Linstead's page in our Artists' Hall of Gratitude to reflect his latest album, "Tales of a Gypsy", released today.  Here is the beginning of that review:

"Johannes' latest album, entitled "Tales of a Gypsy", is an incredible addition to his many accomplishments.  This album has already brought in rave reviews and will undoubtedly be another award winner for this exceptional artist.  While this album is being referred to as his best yet, we find it difficult to compare with Johannes' other Latin guitar albums.  Each one is unique.  Each one has its own flavor and style.  However, we can say that the musical orchestration in "Tales of a Gypsy" is much more complex than the other albums providing a rich and deeply stimulating soundscape.  The album takes its listeners on a journey through the Caribbean islands.  As one might imagine from the title, the melodies in this album take the listener through a number of experiences, some sensual, others happy and playful.  Johannes' signature "Guitar of Fire" is present in this album, and is, as always, quite exhilarating!  "Tales of a Gypsy" is a very upbeat and uplifting collection of melodies."

You can read the rest of this review and enjoy more videos on Johannes' page.  (Scroll down to the bottom for the update and videos.)

We have updated our Chuck Wild - Liquid Mind page in the Artists' Hall of Gratitude in reflection of the latest Liquid Mind album just released last week.  Here is the beginning of that review:

"Chuck Wild's newly released album, Liquid Mind X - Meditation, has begun what we are sure is a new era for Liquid Mind.  This album could well have been titled "Healing the Heart", for that is how this music Flows through the auric field and the biological body.  

In our experience with the previous Liquid Mind albums, we have found them to be extraordinary in assisting one to open to higher levels of consciousness, clairvoyance, clairaudience, Healing, and so on.  With Liquid Mind X - Meditation, we are finding that these qualities are still present within the compositions.  However, the sounds of "Meditation" not only resonate within the Crown and Third Eye chakras, but also....."

You can read the entire review and enjoy a video of "Meditation Part 1" from the Liquid Mind X - Meditation album on our Chuck Wild - Liquid Mind page. (Please scroll down to the update section.)

We are very happy to announce Johannes Linstead (Sevara) as our third entry into our Artists' Hall of Gratitude.  As an award-winning, multi-talented multi-instrumentalist and composer, Johannes has quickly gained a place in our daily lives and in our work even though his talents are relatively new to us.  Johannes' music has a deep resonance with all of us at the Foundation.  We have found that for nearly every occasion, there is a Johannes Linstead (or Sevara) melody to Support it.  We are truly blessed to have connected with this like-minded, spiritually-oriented artist who inspires us every day through his music and his interactions with us.

We invite all of you to visit our "Artists' Hall of Gratitude" and check out Johannes' page to read more.  We have several videos on his page with some of our favorite tunes that we are sure you will enjoy.  

It's time to connect with our Earth Mother....

We may well have here a future Hall of Gratitude artist!  This young singer and his partner have certainly given us inspiration today in listening to their audition for a spot in a British talent show. What is even more inspiring than this young man's incredible voice is his dedication to his friendship with his partner.  We also see a beautiful example of the old saying "Don't judge the book by the cover here!"  Keep your eyes on the audience!  

Not sure how to be the change you wish to see in the world?  Read Chapter Forty-Three from the Tao of Peace, and perhaps the Insight will help you.  

See the need.
Be the change.
Do it now.

We have given our Sneak Peek section a new look and some new excerpts from the Tao of Peace.  In honor of Mother's Day, we have two chapters on the relationship with "Mother".  We hope you enjoy them! 

Nice melody, good words, great song! 

We have posted an update to our "Artists Hall of Gratitude" page for R. Carlos Nakai.  We know you will enjoy it.

Beautiful views of our Earth Mother, along with the floating flute music of R. Carlos Nakai....

Our page honoring Chuck Wild - Liquid Mind has also been expanded and updated in our "Artists' Hall of Gratitude".  We encourage you all to visit it.  

Our second entry in our "Artists' Hall of Gratitude" (formerly titled "Artists' Showcase")....

Over the years, we have found that listening to Native American flute music is greatly helpful in making or Strengthening our connection with Mother Earth. There is one artist whose Native American flute music we have found to be more helpful in these efforts than others. That one artist is R. Carlos Nakai. To him, we give our most sincere thanks. We invite all of you to visit our "Artists' Hall of Gratitude" and visit Carlos' page. We have a couple of videos of his music there, as well as links to his site.

We highly recommend Carlos’ magical flute music to help you find your roots within Mother Earth’s breast.
