This website went online in September of 1996 as "TIMBER: Journal
of Prophecies of Native Peoples Worldwide."
As it turns out, this website was prophesyed by Tuscarora faithkeeper
Wallace "Mad Bear" Anderson, before his passing in 1985. This "Lord
of the Iroquois Confederacy" said in his biography that someday,
someone will travel worldwide and put all Indigenous Propecies in on place,
"and then we really will have something!" Two Years after this website debuted
on the Internet in 1996, I read of this prophecy in Doug Boyd's book, "Mad
Bear."
Wallace "Mad Bear" Anderson had been a close friend of my traditional
teacher, Rolling
Thunder, during his life.

Mad Bear Anderson walked west in 1985. Rolling Thunder walked west
in 1997. They both left huge legacies, and a lot of controversies
behind.
In his autobiography by Doug Boyd, Mad Bear isquoted as saying
that he was writing a compilation of Indian Prophecies, titled EARTH
MOTHER CRYING, and was putting the book together at the time of his
death.
This website, and a subsequent online book soon to make its
debut, were renamed EARTH MOTHER CRYING in Mad Bear's
honor.

Longest Walk"
"Mad Bear did not at all match my image of him. I had never seen
anyone
quite like him before, yet it seemed very reasonable to me that
there should
be such a person. His name suited him, or perhaps it was the other
way around.
Big and round, with short black hair, he was wearing a
Hawaiian-print
shirt and a wide grin which clamped a tipped cigar between big
teeth."
Mad Bear is a highly sophisticated, articulate, and skilled Medicine
Man
who has traveled widely and lived and studied with Druids,
Vikings,
Tibetans, Hindu yogis, and various aboriginal peoples in Asia
and
Africa. He has been the catalyst for many healings.
Here's some of his words:

excerpt----------------------------
from _Rolling Thunder_ by Doug Boyd
Mad Bear said: "The purpose of good medicine is to make it
simple.
There's no need to create any opposing destructive force;
that
only makes more negative energy and more results and more
problems.
"If you have a sense of opposition--that is, if you feel contempt
for
others--you're in a perfect position to receive their
contempt.
The idea is to not be a receiver. You people have such
anger
and fear and contempt for your so-called criminals that
your
crime rate goes up and up. Your society has a high crime
rate
because it is in a perfect position to receive crime. You
should be working WITH these people, not in opposition to
them. The idea is to have contempt for crime, not for
people.
It's a mistake to think of any group or person as an
opponent,
because when you do, that's what the group or person will
become to you. It's more useful to think of every other
person
as another YOU--to think of every individual as a
representative
of the universe.
"Every person is plugged into the whole works. Nobody is
outside it or affects it any less than anybody else. Every
person
is a model of life, so the true nature of a person is the
nature
of life. I don't care how low you fall or how high you
climb,
economically or academically or anything else, you still
represent the whole thing. Even the worst criminal in life
imprisonment sitting in his cell--the center of him is the
same seed, the seed of the whole creation."
