THE NOTEBOOKS OF WILLY WHITEFEATHER: When Willy Whitefeather's notebooks arrived at my home, I was a bit perplexed as to how I would capture their essence. They reminded me so much of my own notes, the ones I take when having mystical experiences, which are often only understandable to me. In my case, my notes are also illegible. But Willy's notes were very readable and filled with beautiful art. How would I compile and really interpret these writings? How would I do them justice? But then, it came to me that it was the notes themselves that had value, in their rawest form; because these are the thoughts, dreams, visions and stories of one of our great Native American elders. What an honor it has been for me to compile his stories, his notebooks, and his work. May you allow the words and images portrayed in Willy Whitefeather's notebooks to penetrate your understanding and give you a glimpse into the mind of a mystic, visionary, storyteller, elder and chief. I give to you 'The Notebooks of Willy Whitefeather, ' please honor them. "The sun comes at dawn . . . and it knocks the darkness from the sky. It doesn't make a sound. And that is how spiritual awareness happens, that is how the Great Spirit works." Willy Whitefeather (For more info - http: //outofbodytravel.org)
