The Grandmothers Wisdom Project is inspired by thirteen elder women known as the International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers. We are committed to supporting all people reclaiming their relationship to Mother Earth, calling for a profound transformation in the heart, mind, and spirit.
Meet the 13 Grandmothers and their teachings at https://www.grandmotherswisdom.org/
Here are some beautiful thoughts for us to embrace. Deepest Gratitude to the Grandmothers for sharing their wisdom.
The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers
revered elders offering essential wisdom and healing for you and our world~
“I had a vision the ancestors told us to heal the world.
When we heal ourselves, we also heal our ancestors, our grandmothers, our grandfathers, and our children.
When we heal ourselves, we also heal mother earth.”
Grandmother Rita Pitka Blumenstein
“The most important Journey we will ever take
is the 18 inches from our mind to our heart.”
Grandmother Agnes Baker Pilgrim
“We are here to let the beauty, love and joy continue so when you walk through this journey, the earth is the better for it. We can give back love, generosity and forgiveness when we ’see’ rightly. Yesterday was history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is our gift! What part will you play today?!”
Grandmother Aama Bombo, Nepal
I converse with the wind. Everything is air. I call the wind as God. They sit with us and they sit on my tongue and they speak through me.”
Grandmother Agnes Baker Pilgrim
“The Sundance is very sacred to our Oglala Lakota peoples. As you support the ceremony in a respectful way, something good will come to you and your people as well.”
Rita Long Visitor Holy Dance
“Every morning I get up and I pray for all sentient beings…humans, animals, even birds – they all need happiness.”
Grandmother Tsering Dolma Gyaltong
“Our people know that the land and the language are one. If we lose one or the other we are no longer who we say we are.” Grandmother Beatrice Long Visitor Holy Dance
“My elders said, ‘Know where your water comes from. Know your fire. Know where you are going to find your food.’”
Grandmother Mona Polacca
“Everyone lightens. Each one of us is moving and vibrating as we become one as the light beings we are. All of us have been called. All of us feel the change and know the urgency of becoming One.”
Grandmother Flordemayo Guatemala
“Leadership is the highest spiritual calling, and as leaders, the starting point begins with you – managing your whole self – by utilizing the spirit that lies within your identity and the strength of your culture.” Grandmother Mona Polacca
Thank you Grandmothers for your dedication to all beings and for being leaders for us to make our world
a peaceful planet.
Peacefully, Jane
