Drumming for Peace

My fellow drummers, please join me at your altar, shrine or sacred space to drum and pray for the people of Ukraine. Our prayers do not have to be complex or eloquent; just simple and sincere from the heart. The power of prayer should never be underestimated. Words have the power to transform substance. As responsible human beings, let us affirm a world of peace, harmony and balance. Let us cultivate care for life and one another. See things as they are, in process of change, without fixation on imbalance. If we focus on conflict, we will get more conflict. However, if we focus on peace we will get more peace. As soon as we focus on a goal, the Universe will take us in that direction.
 
We can put our prayers into the drum and then send them out into the circle of life on the voice of the drum. The sound waves of the drum create a bridge to the spirit world. When we play a drum, the sound can be heard throughout all realms of the spirit world. Through the drum, we can engage the spirit world to effect specific changes in the physical world. All change begins in the spirit world and then is manifested in the physical world. In the shaman's world, all human experience is self-generated. Experience is shaped from within since the creative matrix of the Universe exists within human consciousness. For the shaman, changing reality is not just an ability, but also a duty one must perform so that future generations will inherit a world where they can live in peace, harmony and abundance. Aho!
