Painted Earth Temple
Book Two of the White Buffalo Woman Trilogy

In his prequel to Eyes of Wisdom, The Myth of White Buffalo Woman, Heyoka describes the life of the people who worshiped in the great cave temples of Europe thousands of years ago. These Paleolithic hunter/gatherer ancestors of ours had a deep connection with the wisdom of the Earth, and their unique ceremonies reflected their pursuit of the Way of Balance within the Web of Life. When the Aryan tribes overwhelm the older cultures of the world, the People of The Painted Earth Temple are forced to leave Gaia’s Land and migrate over the land bridge into the New World. Merrifield’s story brings to light that rediscovering the way our ancient grandparents were nurtured by life in the natural world may be an empowering gift in our present journey toward wholeness.

Illustrated with 15 pictures and drawings. 160 pages. $12.
