Delve Into Spirit Song: The Introduction Of No-Eyes Conceived By Mary Summer Rain Released As Paperbound

enjoyed the characters in this one and I always love stories about "connectedness"to the earth and to other people.
BEAUTIFUL expression of God: God as the universe, as nature, as alive within each other, As Mother Earth and Great Spirit again that male/female duality, a perfect balance,

She takes us through her psychic visions and spiritual experiences along with an adoration for her surroundings and the present moment.
In this, I found correlations between everything I love about Christianity, Zen, Buddhism, Paganism, and other ways of life which all emphasize the same ideals, mainly that of loving and accepting yourself and others along the path of life, as you pursue the personal meaning it gives each of us.
At least I find this Spirit Song's greatest attribute to be it's specific teachings, yet anonymous as to one particular faith, or label.
The word "God" is used, but to me, "God" is only aletter word we use to somehow try and express in language the inconceivable yet undeniable Force that created Life.
After all, it's all around us every moment, and I love how Summer Rain takes the time to notice,

Her wise friend NoEyes reminded me of an elderly friend of mine, whom was teaching me about the heart of Buddhism prior to my move to Japan.
She had that same genial sass, a whole lot of stubborn pride, and a feeling that she just "knows", She is a precious person in my life, The Introduction of NoEyes is an exquisite story, a Journey of a spirit seeking to be unleashed to its inner ability.
I really liked how Summer and NoEyes met, creating a fantastical bond of masterapprentice relationship, Very interesting, very thoughtprovoking. Many tell me there is nothing but the here amp now, nothing beyond, but after reading this book, and many others by Mary, you will wonder about the veil which gently separates today from tomorrow and yesterday.
I love noeyes. Though the topics are a bit dated now, I read this book over and over in my early's, When I was

introduced to this book it had such a profound affect on me, I didn't want the story to end, With the Authors descriptions, I felt as if I was there as well, This is a book that I have purchased for others, but I don't think they experienced it quite like I did at that time in my life.
Sometimes you read something you needed to read, It wasn't until the end of this book that I sort of realized what it's message for me was, what it was I needed to hear.
Up untill then it hadn't held much news to me or had much to teach me, and I'll admit I was a little bored with all the scenery descriptions.
I prefer to experience nature, to having it described to me, Either way, it ended up getting its message across, Not what I wanted to hear or see, but there was no escaping this one, It saddened and scared me, but it's not the first time I've had this hinted at me, And here it was even more vividly, Not sure how to respond to this message, but if I listen, I'm sure I'll get that message when I need it, too.

So, now I'll just wait, . And see. Now, I am pretty much as open minded as they come as far as "experiences", and I rarely doubt someone.
Shamanism, ESP, Ghosts, Spirits, whatever,

However, some of this is so general that one wonders, Additionally, the very precise quotes which are said to be the real accurate quotes yet someone did not record things when they were being spoken just makes me wonder, as a scholar, about how truthful the rest of the book.
Additionally, on pin my edition, it basically says she was told to write the book because automatically people will believe the author.


I want to believe, but I don't, I know better and that is coming from someone who loves weird things, The book has more the markings of someone who is trying to make a quick buck than someone who is real and legitimate.
easy book to read with a lot of great life lessons/education As a skeptic to all things mystic/religious this was an interesting read.
I really enjoyed the relationship between Summer and NoEyes and I think there is much to be learned from this book.
In my toplist of all time favs This is the most unusual book i have ever read, I had all emotions while reading this, I was happy one minute and frightened or sad the next, I can not give a proper review for i am still trying to recover, It definitely I loved her writing from the moment I started reading, She explained her feelings through it all, I felt I was there with her and when she finally found no eyes I felt so happy I could have cried which I did when she died.
It's just beautifully written. I was given the series of Mary Summer Rains books, Spirit Song is a spiritual journey of a relationship with NoEyes, a Chippewa medicine woman and Mary Summer Rain, who moved with her husband to Colorado to be closer to nature and earths calling.
NoEyes allows Mary to see visions of the future and imparts a wisdom and knowledge for everyone to follow their own path and destiny.
I would read this writing again for the insight it offers,

Very interesting book, lots of interesting information regarding the paranormal and shamanism, This is the first book in the "No Eyes" series by Mary Summer Rain and it provides a quick overview of their interactions from Mary's meeting of No Eyes through the end of their time together and Mary's reactions to the loss of her teacher.
The next book in the series is "Phoenix Rising," which purports to give a prophecy regarding the period of time during which Earth will go through a major change and general uplifting of the spirit.
However, since the time given in this book until that period isyears, and Mary met No Eyes inand the book was published in, it appears this is yet another prophecy that wasn't quite on the mark.
Nonetheless, this book should be of interest to those who are interested in spirituality and shamanism, Prelude to Phoenix Rising. Both very good. I absolutely loved this book and others by Mary Summer Rain, Filled with lots of wisdom, journeys and stories,

If you relate to Mother Earth, Gaia, this is the book for you, Mary's descriptions of the Colorado Mountains places you there with the sights and smells of wonderment,

Her struggles are my struggles, and she reinforced my beliefs with brillance, i just finished this book and in all honesty would suggest this book to every person who reads this is a story about a native american and how the world changed sh was born blind yet she lived a full lif it tells about things that are currently happening in todays society about how people forget where thy came from and who would survive without the older generation knowledge.
. i can totally get what the writers trying to get across as we do not know when we will live in chaos no electric gas ect it makes so much sense to at least have knowledge of the older ways and i do think every person should have a person that can teach them i definatly know after reading this book makes me want to go and learn them from my mother great story i read theversion Loved it! This book brought me back to knowledge of my own connections to nature and spiritual things.
It made me yearn for my own teacher, I learn more from the two i read then I have all those year listen to white man

And I would recommend her book looking forward to read more of her work can't wait to start the next A fascinating read.
Thought provoking, challenging issues and well written, Consider the impact if each of us were receptive to the gifts of NoEyes in our lives, This book was very powerful, No Eyes' observations are witty and full of wisdom, Mary's telling of the story is also entertaining, Loved this book but have to say it's the only one of Summer Rain's that I kept on my shelf because it was the best one.
The subsequent tales didn't live up to this one, Loved it Mary Summer Rain meets NoEyes, a blindfrombirth Chippewa visionary who teaches her the song of the shaman, guides her in the use of medicinal herbs, and becomes her beloved friend.
