Nowadays I have a close friend and we visit each other almost every week. When I went to see her today, she told me something in me was significantly changed. She told me I looked being refreshed and my aura was more clear and shining than one week ago. She wanted to know what the secret was. She asked me if I had a one-week spa treatment or something. So, here is my secret.
On last weekend, I went back to Navajoland and attended a Navajo Traditional healing ceremony. I was not a patient, but I attended as a participant.
I started visiting Navajoland since December 1998. I have attended many different Navajo traditional ceremonies up until now. My very first experience attended at Navajo Traditional ceremony was March 1999.
Since it was my very first ceremony, the medicine man and his wife taught me some of the basic information about Navajo traditional ceremonies. They said that all the participants in Navajo traditional ceremonies are not just coincidently attending; they are attending for some solid reasons. Thus, no participants are supposed to just sit there, nor they cannot think about something else. Rather, they are supposed to actively participate any of ceremonial duties.
The participants gather at the ceremony. They bring some foods and drinks to share with. They share their comforts and encouragements with the patient. They shed tears with the patient. They pray for the patients from their hearts. They speak up whenever they have any good advice to share with the patient. They sing the Navajo chants together. They laugh out loud whenever a medicine man says something funny to make everybody laugh. In Navajo culture and ceremony, laughter plays an important role. Laughter has a high vibration and healing power. The medicine man and his wife said these are how the participants actively get involved into the ceremony. That is the way they help each other.
When a medicine man sings Navajo traditional songs/chants, the songs/chants open up the gateway for everybody to spiritually travel with the medicine man. I still remember some of the details during my first Navajo traditional ceremony. During the medicine man was singing the chants for the patient in Navajo language, my soul stood up with the medicine man and other participants around the patient to protect her, then our souls traveled departing from the Hogan (Navajo ceremonial place), traveled to the top of a mountain. There, we performed some ceremonial duties, and came back to Hogan.
From my experiences, this is how the patient as well as all the participants are healed, and gain some strength and wisdom. Attending the Navajo ceremony helps me to cleanse my aura and energy.
