    And if you over-analyze a situation, are you really using its deeper meaning to enhance your perception, or are you just going to second guess yourself?

    If you have to stop and think about it, you're placing yourself on the "outside" and not accepting and internalizing it.

    In my experience, if you realize that EVERYTHING has a deeper meaning, and that your consciousness will never know the half of it, you can accept everything as it comes and 'go with the flow'.
    I agree totally with what you say. Coincedences it's what people call it, I always see a deeper meaning in it when that happens. That is what I am always trying to say - going with the flow -

        Yeah, that is really cool. I do programming and it always reminds me of the interlocking gears in a clock, which remind me of those circles, programming is very circular.

          NDNess of all things

          I think you are right. I think of the "beads" of DNA that control the cells. There are only 4 "colors" (Guanine, Adenine, Cytosine, Thymine) like the four colors of a medicine wheel (Red, white, yellow, black/blue). The multiple combination of those beads/colors give us a message that tells the cell how to run.
          By combining those "beads" of information we get multiple combinations with infinite possibilities.
          Perhaps the "code" is in the medicine wheel after all?

          I was just interested if anyone else gets stuck in thought holes like this or if I've been beading too much lately. It just seems that the more we learn about the world and life, the more truth we find in native teachings.

          I like the patterns in things. And maybe ought to quit eating mushrooms that grow in the yard.

              An online iq test I took said that I have an overaverage understanding of patterns, okay okay... whatever.

              The base for all pattern begins with a line and a round or ball shape - the lines form everything while the ball or bubble fills in to hold it all together. I wonder if this makes sense.

                That's cool and a way to remember! I was told by my psych prof that they studied Einstein's brain and that it wasn't bigger than anyone else's nor did it really have more folds, but what it did have was more neural connections, I guess he connected more things together than other people. So metaphors may really be a path to greater intelligence.

                I'm not saying it has to do with tradition, but you know just kind of interesting way to link knowledge. And who knows?

                  poor powwow etiquette
                  by Redhawk_foxtail
                  I was wondering if anyone else has seen poor etiquette behaviours at powwows of late. In the last 3-4 years it seems ( at least for the powwows around here ) that people just don't listen ( or care ) when we ask that no pictures or video are taken because something is sacred and not to be taken...

                  My buddy in the 3rd ID came over last night and it was great to see him. :) I had decided, in advance, that even though I had my opinions of the war efforts and such, I would not bring this up with him out of respect for him ACTUALLY being over there, fighting. He knows how I feel about war in general...
