The only thing we can leave behind for all those coming after are the tools - & the only tools that will last and always be relevant is Good Story.
Like symbols drawn in the sand or etched into stone, sand talk is a means of transmitting knowledge through metaphor and encoded story. It is a powerful modality through which we explore existence, uncovering the intricate relationships between humanity, the land, all the entities in the landscape, and in the world of spirit.
Sandtalk, whether by a fire, in a cave, in the dirt, dust, sand and snow, a sacred space where the ancient and contemporary converge in a dance of words, symbols, and narratives. In the tradition of cultures across the globe, sand talk is a visual and linguistic form of storytelling, a method of encoding knowledge and wisdom, and a conduit through which the wisdom of the land speaks.
It is a way of being, a way of relating, and a way of seeing the world. As you explore the tales etched in these digital sands, may you find yourself immersed in the rich tapestry of knowledge, relationships, and the ageless conversation between past, present, and future.
So take a seat with me around the campfire, and let's share some story.
