Sioux Legend

And Raven asked:

Will they ever be ready for it?

Creator answered, they may not, but you will, for you know the great
emptiness they have chosen to make in their hearts.

I was struck by the wisdom in this little story when it was sent to me
several months ago (apologies if it has already been on the list).  I'm not
sure exactly how it relates to Open Space, but I sense it may have something
to do with 'expanding one's Now'.  I offer it as something to ponder as we
prepare to cross the boundary into a new year...

Creator said

The Creator gathered all of creation and said, I want to hide something from
the humans until they are ready for it.  It is the realization that they
create their own reality.
The Eagle said, Give it to me, I will take it to the moon.  Creator said, No
one day they will go there and find it. The Salmon said, I will hide it on
the bottom of the ocean.  No, they will go there too.  The Buffalo said, I
will bury it on the great plains.  Creator said, They will cut into the skin
of the earth and find it.


Then Grandmother Mole, who lives in the breast of Mother Earth, and who has
no physical eyes but sees with spiritual eyes, said, Put it inside them.
And Creator said: It is done.
