Jill Schneider

Most of all she needs the funk (help her find the funk). She has a mind like a pin ball machine and finds that drumming is one of only two things that allows her the bliss of focusing on one thing at a time. Her inspriation and spiritual master is Moe Jerant who says "you just need to practice being on this planet."

That's great! Haha. We used to have practices at the Whitehal Skateaway. We had to change rinks though because they wouldn't accomodate our practice times.

8000 Drums Healing Ceremony Join In this drum wave repost
March 21, 2008 2PM EST



Gilles Novaks, who is a Montagnais Indian from Montreal and a Medicine Man and a Healer, requests all Tribal people (actually all peoples) to participate in a worldwide ceremony called the "8,000 Drums". He was contacted by two Huron Clan Grandmothers from up there in Canada and they asked him to help spread the word to all Indians everywhere. It will take place on March 21, 2008 at 12:00 noon MEXICO TIME (2:00PM Eastern Standard Time).

All you need to do is play a drum either alone, or with a group or have the whole Tribe participate. The purpose is to fulfill the OTOMI PROPHECY. The Otomi's are Mayan Olmec and Toltec descendants. The drums will be played so that the Creator will hear us and grant our wishes as we pray & meditate for help in the Healing Process of our Mother Earth.


Prophecies...
500 year-old Otomi Prophecy...When 8000 sacred drums play together, an intense healing of Mother Earth will commence.

Dr.KAOLIMBA (Kohei Kanamori)
