THE THIRD EAR A Celebration of Teaching Stories and Songs from the First People

In Moses's tradition, wisdom and knowledge about all areas of life are handed down in stories. He explains that in his Native American culture the Elders teach children to "learn by watching, listening, feeling, using all your senses, opening yourself to everything. The senses will tell you--the Spirit will tell you. Then . . . you see." With a soft quietness that encourages intimacy and confidences, Moses shares teaching and healing stories that show an appreciation and respect for the individual. The humor that is woven through the traditional stories of Moses's people creates an element of joy, and the inclusion of native words adds an understated elegance to Moses's storytelling. R.M.
