Review title: Caveat lector!
Product review: Once again, we have a situation where a white person is claiming to be something she is not. Ms. Ywahoo is *not* on the Dawes rolls, and is not a member of any recognized tribe of Cherokee Native Americans. Her teachings do NOT meld with any of the antiquities which have survived over the years from Cherokee ancestry - crystals and flame medidations of the type she describes are NOT part of essential Cherokee spirituality.In a recent discussion I had with Wilma Mankiller, former chief of the Cherokee Nation, she mentioned that Ms. Ywahoo has been "a thorn in the side of the Nation for many years now." While some of the new-age concepts Ms. Ywahoo puts forth are interesting, peaceful, and appealing for their purity of thought, this book is NOT A REPRESENTATION OF TRADITIONAL CHEROKEE BELIEFS. For more information on the true spiritual history of the Cherokees, I highly recommend the Mooney books written at the turn of the 20th century.
