dhyani Ywahoo Is A Member Of The Traditional Etowah Band Of The Eastern Tsalagi (cherokee) Nation. Trained By Her Grandparents, She Is The Twenty-seventh Generation To Carry The Ancestral Wisdom Of The Ywahoo Lineage. Charged With The Duty To Rekindle The Fire Of Clear Mind And Right Relationship In These Changing Times, She Is A Guide To All Who Walk The Beauty Road. In Her First Book She Shares With Readers These Precious Oral Teachings Of Her People.
voices Of Our Ancestors Teaches Practical Ways Of Transforming Obstacles To Happiness And Good Relationships, Fulfilling One's Life Purpose, Manifesting Peace And Abundance, And Renewing The Planet.

according To The Ancient Native American Calendar, We Have Recently Entered A New Cycle Of Thirteen Heavens, A New Age In Which We Have The Opportunity To Let Go Of Aggression And Fear And Begin To Live A Life Of Enlightened Consciousness. With A Voice That Is Powerful, Prophetic, And Compassionate, Dhyani Ywahoo Calls On Us To Become "peacekeepers" In Our Hearts And In The World.
in Her First Book, Ywahoo Seeks To Show That Her Native Cherokee Tradition Of Respect For The Earth, For Human Beings And For A Great Spirit Can Help Modern America Find Strength During A Time When Many Fear Nuclear War, Crime, Pollution, Loneliness And Disease. She Points Out Universal Elements In Cherokee Customs. Cherokee Mythology, For Example, Includes A Creation Story, 12 Tribes, A Virgin Birth And A Divine Trinity. Moreover, The Cherokees Practiced Meditation And Used Crystals For Healing And Guidance. Unfortunately, Ywahoo Has Not Found An Appealing Voiceher Writing Often Lapses Into New Age Jargon, Political Rhetoric Or Dry Academic Prose (``desire To Manifest Peacekeeping Mind Sets One On A Course Of Conflict Resolution''). It Leaves One Wondering How Much Of The Material Is Cherokee And How Much Is California. (december)
