Details:
In a single song - with many implications for our times,
Bunny sends her soulful voice, with flute, drum, chimes and acoustic guitar harmonies, wind and thunder (and surprise BONUS dreams songs included as a THANK YOU for these gifts from the Black Hills)!
On the Wyoming edge of the hills and sage kissed prairie - where indigenous clans lived for centuries nurturing and respecting the land and it''s diversity of creatures and plant life. Here a life-style was lived to preserve these resources and each tribe had their teachers, elders and wisdom keepers who had dreams and visions, and the receiving of prophecy, to help nurture, teach and protect life and keep good relationship with all living things in an effort to preserve and protect earth''s abundance for generations who would follow in their footsteps.
This was a worldview, a way of life
that is sorely lacking among the majority of people living on our planet today.
Perhaps these long held truths have now fallen upon deaf ears because unscrupulous people have distorted, manipulated, and re-interpreted these ways in an effort to gain political, religious or material control.
However this does not change the fact that many ancient life-ways based the teachings and prophecies harmonious with the natural created world that were passed on in story, song, and in written forms (including the Bible) have all agreed in general terms. They have served to warn that if ever people abandoned ways of living in harmony, ceased their practice of treating all peoples and life forms with honor and respect, that there would be
large prices to pay in the future.
Awareness is needed
to recognize that
we ARE the caretakers of the earth,
and if,
where we touch the earth or each other,
or any created thing,
we leave a hurt or a scar,
or give nothing back in return,
we are only killing our own selves and the life force gifted us
with a thousand
small wounds
that could
eventually
kill the whole living planet as we know it.
As storm clouds thicken overhead because
humankind has in general
ceased to walk in truth, wisdom and awareness, perhaps the time spoken about through prophecy has arrived! It is time now that people once again recognize with urgency and respect what is needed to become kind and in good relationship with all peoples from the four directions,
the good earth, and its diversity of life.
True Freedom, peace, and security
can only be achieved when all living things are allowed the space and enjoyment each species requires to live a healthy, harmonious existence, fulfilling their sacred space for which they were created, within the circle of life, for themselves and their offspring to come.
Fighting, denying,and consuming only increases the lack of these life-sustaining requirements.
We EACH, INDIVIDUALLY are a part of the great puzzle
and EACH
either becomes a part of the problem or the solution...
it is our privilege as humans
to have such a choice.
So, in song we ask
with humble hearts
for the truth and wisdom
to choose to become
a sincere
Prophecy
Keeper
and to carry these truths to yet more hearts.
As living vessels, carriers of this song
(both in writing and creating it for release on CD)
its creators/co-writers Karen Lake and Bunny Sings Wolf
hope that people will listen with their hearts,
in just the same way that this song is prayerfully sent.
It is our hope that
beginning with the sounds in this recording,
thoughtful people will take it upon themselves to follow through
to search for,
and come to understand
the wisdoms passed down to each of us
from whatever our culture, our family background,
or our location on the planet,
that we each may take the opportunity
within our unique place in the cosmos,
and decide now
to live and work in harmony
in the ways given each of us
to BEST use our own sacred gifts and talents
to
HONOR LIFE
in all our relations.
