A Walk With A Ghost, New Podcast Episode

A Walk With A Ghost, New Podcast Episode
Show Notes, Links For This Episode

Hello from Kentucky! This is the Shaman Drums 2.0 Podcast, brought to you by Thunder Valley Drums, your source for lightning-struck drums and many other spiritual allies for your sacred exploration. I’m Bob, your drummaker and podcast guide for the next hour or so, and I am very honored and excited that you’ve joined the circle today! Welcome!

Today’s show is a personal report of my ongoing encounter with a ghost—practically in my backyard! So I finally decided to grab my digital recorder and head outside to see if I could capture an episode with the haunting figure.

Well, what can I say? What an adventure it turned out to be.

For one thing, many power animals showed up for cameo appearances during the taping, even though one was camera- and recorder-shy and thus avoided detection by my equipment. The ghost also eluded capture, by electronic means at least. But then, a most interesting thing happened. Perfection reared its head.

Union of Sun & ShadowHere's a hint (photo, left), a trio of images, the last being a mirrored combination of the first two. You'll discover their significance early in the podcast.

So click the “Launch” button, above left, if you’re actually visiting the blog site and want to hear it instantly, or simply download the episode for later listening (the download button is near the bottom of this post). You can also catch the Shaman Drums 2.0 Podcast on iTunes or other podcast service and join me for a most unusual,  personal and surprising ghostbusting experience.

    It's great! You seem to be an old Soul friend to all of us, and I know you are. It was fun to go on a walk with you! Seriously, it is very evident you are so connected to nature, like all true shamans, and you inspire me to do the same.

      Greetings, Rebecca, and thank you so very much for your gracious comment about the podcast. I am sitting at my desk as I write this, and once again the crows are prowling the grounds and skies while cawing out the law of the land! Their behavior tells me that you-know-who must be nearby. Only moments ago the rabbit dashed across the length of the soccer field, away from the hawk tree, so I think that confirms it. The eternal game is once again engaged!

      I do hope you will offer some time to nature, as you indicate. You could begin by lying face down on the ground with your arms out and give a big squeeze. Then turn over and repeat. Hugging Mother Earth and Father Sky...perfection!

      Aho & Namaste,
      Bob

      Greetings, Sherry, and thank you for writing! You are obviously where you need to be, where we ALL should be, in an idyllic setting with woods and water. It sounds perfect! The Knoxville area, like much of Tennessee, is vibrant with Earth energy. Surely it must be on one of those power points and grids I hear about. Driving through that area is so enjoyable. I've often thought of how fortunate people are to live there. I would love to return sometime, so thank you for the invitation! Perhaps Spirit will provide a way. Aho & Namaste to you and yours. --Bob
