Sunray teachings and meditations are the continuation of ancient teachings based upon traditional Tsalagi (Cherokee) teachings. The Tibetan Buddhist teachings are from the Nyingma and Drikung Kagyu Lineages.
Through the great generosity of the Ywahoo lineage, after generations of secrecy, in 1969 it was decided to share the teaching of the Tsalagi tradition with non-Native people, so that our children would have water to drink and a place to walk. The intention is to strengthen individuals’ relationships with their families, communities, nations, and the land, the Earth herself. We do not invite people to become Indians. We invite people to be in good fellowship and to respect the teachings of their family of origin. Thus may we all cooperate in manifesting a vision of peace.
These teachings are of a foundation level, suitable for all people of any religion or nationality committed to peace and good relationship. Thus we maintain the sanctity of the clan laws about what teachings are available to non-Native people.
Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo’s intention is that these teachings, passed on by her Grandparents, Nellie Yawhoo, Eonah Fisher and Eli Ywahoo for over 27 generations, will inspire many people to right action that will benefit all beings, now and in future generations.
