Tsalagi or Cherokee – The Indians of the Pleiades

 

A few years ago, I came across a remarkable book.

Its author, Dhyani Ywahoo, writes in the introduction:

“We, the Cherokee or Tsalagi, are traditionally called the Principal People (Ani Yunwiya) because in our creation story and philosophy it is stated that we carry the sacred responsibility to inspire light and reveal goodness for the benefit of all beings. We come from the stars known as the Pleiades, the Seven Dancers. Within our ceremonies and relationships, the Fire of Wisdom is encoded; therefore, we are responsible for rekindling the fire of the clear mind and right relationship in these times of change.”

First published in 1987 and later translated into Greek in 1991, this work carries the voice of an ancient tradition.

Dhyani, who describes herself as a fifth-generation descendant who has survived after the coming of darkness, presents the beliefs, knowledge, and ceremonies of her people. She offers meditative practices and techniques for healing and harmonization with the Worlds of Light, drawing from the rich heritage of her ancestors.

She speaks about the Sacred Sound, which for the Tsalagi is considered the greatest healer.

In the chapter Adamantine Light, she presents the great power of crystals, as well as the knowledge and respect required in their use:

“The crystal is the symbol of the perfection that exists within us. These teachings about the crystal come through the Pleiades, the constellation of the Seven Dancers, through the healing ray of the Tsalagi to the priestesses and priests who preserve this sacred tradition, and through the constellation of the Bear.”

She also writes:

“All that we see around us is a reflection of our thoughts, and everything we experience is the result of causes we ourselves have created.”

Through her writing, Dhyani invites us into the sacred world of her Ancestors.

She speaks of the energies of Peacemaking, Purification, Magnetization, and Manifestation, which are the four pillars of the healing lodge. She also speaks of dances, chants, and prayers, of the teaching of the pale human, and many other meaningful elements.

At the time of the Greek publication in 1991, she wrote:

“At this time, the Indigenous peoples of America face daily cultural and physical genocide. Our elders, some of whom endured great hardship and punishment for preserving our culture, have instilled in us—through ceremonies, songs, and example—the methods to create a balanced world. Until 1979, Native Americans did not have the right to practice their traditional religions in the United States.”

I write this today not only because this is a truly meaningful work—one that carries a spirit of love and unity for all humanity, regardless of race or religion—but also because I believe there is a reason to preserve the Ancestors of Nations for the salvation of Humanity.

As Dhyani writes:

“A nation that despises its farmers manifests drought and scarcity. Our actions, both individual and collective, are reflected in our environment.”

The Witch

The Witch

Excerpt from the book Seven Hermits  

Years pass, and the days flow like water in a river. They may seem the same, yet they are not. Beneath the surface, along the riverbed, the current of life carries away soil and small stones. Green moss grows and settles upon the larger rocks that break the water’s skin, and the sound of the river—if one listens carefully—changes with the turning of the seasons and the wandering of the winds.

Human beings are born bringing hope with them, secretly carrying the ledgers they bear through life; and when they depart, they leave behind their traces—footprints that, in the passage of time, will also fade away. 

Yet from time to time, among them appear a few who can see beyond the transformations of matter. They are able to look directly into the tiny droplets of water that form the world around us. Their gift becomes an opportunity for those who encounter them—to witness the endless ripples created when a small pebble touches the surface of the water.

Often, we humans enter the desert of doubt.

It is a harsh desert—one that threatens to collapse the convictions and the walls of doctrine we have built around ourselves. It is painful as well, because it forces us—whether we wish it or not—to leave behind the comfort of certainty, the quiet belief that things are simply “the way they are,” and to confront something deeper.

In The Witch, we follow the life of a priest who is forced to step beyond the fear and the limits of his own faith, and to face the possibility that existence may extend far beyond the boundaries he once believed unbreakable.

Aunt Maria is the healer—a woman who, since childhood, has been able to see beyond the world of the recognized senses. With her words alone, she can intervene and save lives. The villagers accept her presence as something natural. But to their priest, she is a witch, and he excludes her from Holy Communion.

Yet life will one day bring him to her doorstep, asking for help.

Father Evangelos is one of the hermits in my book Seven Hermits.

The story is inspired by real events from another era.

It is also dedicated to a real healer whom life gave me the blessing to know.

This excerpt comes from the book Seven Hermits, which is currently available only in Greek.

Επτά Ερημίτες

 

Τα χρόνια περνούν, οι μέρες κυλούν σαν το νερό στο ποτάμι, μοιάζουν ίδιες, αλλά δεν είναι. Κάτω απ’ την επιφάνεια του νερού, στην κοίτη του ποταμού, το ρεύμα της ζωής παρασέρνει το χώμα και τις μικρές πέτρες, αναπτύσσει πράσινα βρύα, που επικάθονται στις μεγάλες πέτρες στην επιφάνεια του ποταμού, κι ο ήχος του, αν τον προσέξεις, αλλάζει ανάλογα με τη ρότα του καιρού και των ανέμων. Οι άνθρωποι γεννιούνται φέρνοντας μαζί τους την ελπίδα, κρατώντας κρυφά τα κιτάπια που μαζί τους κουβαλούν και, όταν φεύγουν, αφήνουν πίσω τους αποτυπώματα, που στο διάβα του καιρού κι αυτά θα σβήσουν.

Ωστόσο, ανάμεσά τους, έρχονται πού και πού κάποιοι που μπορούν να δουν πέρα από τις μεταμορφώσεις της ύλης και μπορούν να κοιτάξουν κατάματα τα μικρά μόρια του νερού που σχηματίζουν τον κόσμο μας. Αυτή τους η δύναμη γίνεται ευκαιρία, σε κάποιους από αυτούς που τους συναντούν, να δουν τα αλλεπάλληλα κύματα που κάνει το βότσαλο στο νερό με την πτώση του.

💢💢💢

Συχνά οι άνθρωποι μπαίνουμε στην έρημο της αμφιβολίας.  Είναι μία έρημος βασανιστική, που απειλεί να καταρρεύσει τις πεποιθήσεις και τους τοίχους του δόγματος που έχουμε κτίσει γύρω από τον εαυτό μας.  Είναι βασανιστική επίσης, γιατί μας βγάζει, θέλουμε δεν θέλουμε,  από τον εφησυχασμό   και την βεβαιότητα πως τα πράγματα "έτσι είναι" και μας αναγκάζει να την αντιμετωπίσουμε.

Στην "Μάγισσα", παρακολουθούμε τη ζωή ενός ιερέα, όταν αναγκάζεται να βγει από το φόβο και τον περιορισμό της πίστης του και να αποδεχτεί το "πέρα από τα όρια" της ύπαρξης ενός ανθρώπου.

Η θεια-Μαριά,  είναι η θεραπεύτρια,  η γυναίκα που βλέπει από μικρό παιδί πέρα από τον κόσμο των αναγνωρισμένων αισθήσεων.  Μπορεί και επεμβαίνει με το λόγο της και διασώζει ζωές.  Για τους κατοίκους του χωριού είναι αποδεκτή,  αλλά για τον ιερωμένο τους,  είναι μια μάγισσα,  και την αποκλείει από την Θεία κοινωνία.

Όμως,  η ζωή θα τον φέρει στο κατώφλι της για βοήθεια.

Ο παπα-Ευάγγελος,  είναι ένας από τους ερημίτες του βιβλίου μου "Επτά Ερημίτες".

Η ιστορία είναι εμπνευσμένη από αληθινά γεγονότα μιας άλλης εποχής.

Είναι επίσης αφιερωμένη,  σε μια πραγματική θεραπεύτρια, που η ζωή μου έδωσε την ευλογία να γνωρίσω.

Divine Synchronicity

 

Greetings, Observer.

I contemplate that small opening in time within the space of your own reality—the moment that offered you a piece of information allowing you to move toward new dimensions in the way you experience life.

The concept of synchronicity was explored by the well-known psychiatrist and psychologist Carl Jung. Yet its true function in your life is something only you can confirm—if you are able to recognize its presence in the “random” small or great events that appear along your path, and reflect deeply enough to understand why they occurred.

Often, behind what appears to be a simple choice, there hides the synchronicity of a piece of information or an encounter—something to which you gave your attention by following your intuition.

In doing so, you allow possibilities to fulfill their purpose in your life. By observing and following divine synchronicity, you tune into the frequency designed for you, Observer. You no longer remain stagnant within familiar patterns but begin to see what lies hidden within your experiences.

During the difficult events unfolding across our planet in recent years, our personal lives are deeply affected. For this reason, aligning ourselves with the messages coming from the spiritual field has become even more necessary, because within the material world the forces of separation seem to grow stronger.

Divine synchronicity is the path that allows us to observe behind events, through them, and beyond them.

What is required in order to recognize it?

Recognition of the Divine Principle, creative curiosity, and trust in the infinite dimensions of life within and around us.

I greet you, dear Observer, with a poem from the poetry collection Cosmos.

Coincidences

Look how I happened upon you!

So many layers of the Cosmos,

endless probabilities,

unimaginable connections—

divine synchronicities.

If I am meant to meet you,

everything falls into place

in the great clock of the Cosmos.

Miracles happen.

The “ifs” disappear,

turning into certainty.

There are no coincidences—

only what has already been agreed.

 

The Ever-New Human

 

And so it happens, as we live our lives,

to leave pieces of ourselves, here and there.

That is why we so often reminisce about them,

through memories and in the shadows of dreams

that become narrations.

They seem like islands in the seas of Nostos

and they live there through Eros and toil.

From an unknown and primordial cause,

that carries within it the frenzy of Pana,

we arrive, at times, at the sacred sacrifice.

But when love rises to regenerate Orfeas,

and bears Sofia its shield and Romfaia its sail,

it shall sail forth,

and one by one, all your pieces,

it shall gather!

You are Whole now.

May your entire inheritance rightfully belong to you—

rest! 

From the poetry collection “ERATO”

Dimitra Bitsiani

For many years now, we have been waiting for the arrival of a new world for humanity.

Perhaps this expectation arises from our deeper need to live better, for clearly we are not fully satisfied with the life we have lived so far.

And the truth is that even if, on an individual level, we are satisfied—having achieved our goals and secured a good standard of living—because we are CONNECTED, we cannot truly enjoy what we have gained when around us there are people (and not only people) who suffer and are mistreated for countless reasons.

There are also the burdens our Soul carries from present and past experiences—burdens we have not yet managed to put in order within ourselves.

It may also be the refusal to confront our true condition, the refusal to look at ourselves as honestly as we can, and to decide what we truly want.

How do we define the New Human we wish to become?

We often speak of this human as something outside ourselves. Something theoretical and future-bound. Something vague, as if it does not concern us. As if it depends on others—whoever those others may be.

Have we asked what relationship this New Human has with us? How much of him is truly ours?

We hear all these new “terms” and “definitions,” such as “Meta-human,” and if we trace our steps back through time, we will see that the “human” has always waited for change and redemption to come from others—however those others were defined in each era, according to prevailing beliefs and established systems meant to enclose him within frameworks and structures.

Even his revolutions ended up becoming his new cells.

What have all these offered us?

If we look at our present moment, we can already see the answer. And if we cannot yet see clearly, the future will reveal the truth—unless we have chosen not to look at it.

This New Human is the ever-new one.

The one who looks upon the world with fresh eyes.

The one guided by an inner necessity and truth—not to live in the world for himself, but to LIVE WITH HIMSELF WITHIN THE WORLD.

Every experience and every involvement becomes a joy of discovery, knowledge, understanding, and offering.

Without his supreme dimension—his SPIRITUAL SELF, the HIGHER, the INCORRUPTIBLE, the one who communes with the Divine Realm—the human being is lost and at the mercy of false promises.

Do you imagine the New Human as forever young, beautiful, and perfectly healthy? Forever happy? Always overflowing with joy? Wealthy? Successful?

I believe these have little to do with the New Human, and much more with his immature self.

How long, truly, can such conditions remain unchanged in a person’s life? Even if we were to extend our lifespan to one or two hundred years, the Soul would still cry out for its needs.

For the New Human is the one who lives by recognizing his pieces, who can unite them, accept them, and evolve them.

When you are connected with your Immortal Self, you do not need external solutions, magical remedies, or willing saviors—because you know who you truly are.

EGO EIMI — I AM.
