NDN Book of Wisdom

Shadow of the Wolf & Native Wisdom & Poems of the Heart

The Native American Book of Wisdom


"Traditional beliefs say there are three parts of the human body: Body, Spirit and Ghost. At death our bodies return to Mother Earth, to nourish what has nourished us. The spirit, which belongs to the Great Mystery, returns to it's source, a journey that takes place on the path of stars, or as a drop of water falling into the ocean, it becomes part of everything..That's why we sometimes feel our loved ones in the warm air, or hear them in a bird's song, or sense them in the wind...the ghost is another thing, a complete story unto itself..stories of a ghost world and a great river that must be crossed before entering..."


"This helps me as a son whose mother moves towards the Spirit world." - Dawn Wolf
