Ok... first things first... WOW! What a phenomenal way to describe the essence of the duality we all have.
In certain Native Traditions, the Shaman is known as "The Wounded Healer" or "one who walks in two worlds." In my time of studying the Lakhota tradition, I've had this duality described to me by many different elders in many different ways, but none were presented in such a westernized manner.
To me, what Taylor described is the essence of this concept and she described it in a way that someone who was raised in a westernized culture could grasp with ease.
I also like the fact that she was so adamant that ANYONE has this ability if they just choose to use it.
Thanks for sharing that, Erin. Great find. |
