Crosslin Smith, The Old Ways

[@slk1451]

I opened up the Cherokee Phoenix to learn we had lost you. Crosslin was a good friend to my great grandma Maggie. Im proud to say I’m no longer a Christian and I now follow the old ways. Wado for setting me on a better path. You are missed. donadagohvi

[@brandonhughes2729]

Rest in Peace, You will be missed, even by persons that have never met you. Im blessed to have had several conversations with you.

[@shonpieters9609]

That gift is what he is talking about is being an empath, but on a high level. It makes you naturally a medicine man in a since... You can sense human energy, animal energy, and spirit energy. Adadoligi ale Udohiu ✌️😁

[@denisefrickey5636]

Yes, that is what my friend and mentor helped me to learn to do better.

[@justineb211]

In a sense, but it can be a long road to get back to the old way (I love that he says that, as it is how I would explain it). It's not about label, if that is the goal, then you do not understand and are not ready. If wanting to learn, there are many types of medicine but spirituality is one with earth and sky. I learned much in my life and youth, and from observing others, but the most out and away from all for several years. You make friends with the elements, respect their gifts and their power, etc. Whenever I lose my way, I ground back to the earth and sky, so that I can do what is needed. I got tears in my eyes watching this, not all of it can be taught by others, much is learned through spirit earth and sky. Hard to explain but when you do it, it's just easier to say "old way(s)". See, everything before that probably confused anyone reading. Anyway, very grateful to see this video. Resonated.

I would love to meet people who believe in this, where are they ?

I adore Mr Smith!!! He’s the BEST. His message is so needed right now.❤️

[@oldschool8292]

Yes and even more today. 💜

[@definitelyp8652]

Thank you, I know very little of my grandmother's people, my family. And now I learn in this time of darkness.

[@theresasanders8251]

Beautiful. I have always felt, as a spiritual, but not traditional native, that our legacy as the 1st Peoples here, that our legacy was of the spirit and the relationship we have with that universal life force in all things. I wanted to know the Creator, not just believe. I wanted to know the Truth. I hope this man, surely, has an apprentice/disciple or two. This is the Treasure of the 1st Peoples!

[@tonyrains8822]

Siyo osda sunalei sgi for these true teachings one can share to ones children about our ways and how one have tought them from the beginning when they were little and they ask one how do you have deer walk up to you and pet them and one tells them one was in the spirit they will now know again sgi

[@yawbear]

In my family this gift is given to those who have received it from living wise in their lives. They kept the old ways even though they might seem alone, they live close to the creator. ❤ It amazes me how many people choose to live without understanding.

[@denisefrickey5636]

What a beautiful message, and one that speaks to my heart. My mentor in energy healing and detecting what is wrong with a person was a Cherokee Healer, and she did much to improve my own spiritual connection to all that is our creation.

[@guywells8092]

Osiyo Elder SmithWe must keep teaching the oldways so they are not forgotten My Adoptive Father Charles Harnage(RedHawk)spoke much on these and taught many lessons.

[@michaelsmithson6533]

Even though I’m part of the last generation in my family to have a bit of Cherokee in me, I still hang on to their teachings

[@jodiarneson1683]

Never let go of this ever!! These messages are precious and you need to know them and be able to take teach them to newer generations.

[@PHDWhom]

Do you have family on the Dawes Rolls? If so, I would ask you to please reconnect and affiliate with whichever Cherokee nation you hail from. I ask this as a human being, and as an as of yet unregistered Cherokee citizen. We need everyone at the table.

My grandmother that i never had a chance to meet was of the Cherokee tribe. I yearn a connection with the earth. The empty hole that I feel in daily life is great. I pray to be one with all that our glorious Creator has provided.

[@richardphillips8475]

I took once saw a robin and I took the idea to catch this bird. So I very slowly crept up and as I got closer it jumped up on a pine tree limb at just the right hight, I was about 8 years old. I reached out and caught the bird. Proud of what I had done I showed my mother who told me to let it go. A few years later an owl was sitting on our mailbox and again I walked over to it and it allowed me to take it home.

The old ways are spiritual connected to the universe but you must believe my cherokee grandmother taught me some aspects of these connections of the earth and the spirits. 5 years ago I had a ❤ transplant before surgery I had my medicine bag in my possession afterwards I was asked if I needed any pain medications my response was I had no pain but in the solitude of room I would room I'd chant the way my grandma taught to my surgery was nydadequa on the 3rd I was sent home on the 22nd of nydadequa less than 3 weeks later.... ask me and I'll say yes I believe in the old ways

My great grandmother Rachel Christie went to that same school

[@richardphillips8475]

Once when I was very young I too walked up to, very slowly, and I did catch a Robin with my bare hands. It had jumped up on a limb of the pine tree to be of the perfect hight that I merely reached out and took hold of the bird. And after I took it to show my mother what I had done I let the bird go and it flew away. I did pet it and to calm it down. I do not remember the bird hurting me although my mother said otherwise.
