This review is from: Mitakuye Oyasin: We Are All Related (Paperback)

This a wonderful piece of work. A.C. has brought together so many insightful beliefs that many of us have and can not put into words as eloquently as he has. This is a must read. I'm glad to know so many of us think alike and believe that we "are all related", to eachother and to everything around us.

This review is from: Mitakuye Oyasin: We Are All Related (Paperback)

This book is thought provoking,inspiring,and empowering.I feel I am a better person for just having read it.Now I shall proceed to buy 10 copies for my friends and family to "pay it forward".It didnt feel like I was reading a 215 pg book, but rather it felt like I was listening to my wise old uncle explain very complex matters in a manner that would not be too deep for my very shallow mind.For anyone considering reading this book I would implore them to READ THIS BOOK!!!Its Fantastic!..then tell all your friends and family to read it!..Dont be stingy:)

This review is from: Mitakuye oyasin: "we are all related"

Just terrific, this book needs to be enjoyed by all. Ehanamani is not trying to prove a point, form opinions, or provide examples for the reader to draw conclusions. He is extending ideas handed down from his D Lakota tribe's oral tradition. It inspires the reader to consider the inherent energy contained within each of us. The balance of logic and feeling is now an imperative part of my life. A friend of mine met him, and Tom deserves a large thanks for sharing this author's work with others.
