About Us
History and
Philosophy
Yraceburu EarthWisdom is dedicated to providing a powerful sense of
peace and connection. Everything we do from the workshops to the
pilgrimages, from the healings to the healers has been constantly and
thoughtfully refined over the last forty years. We pride ourselves on
being "authentic". We offer a unique 'earth-based' life philosophy,
combining the traditional with contemporary.
Our humble beginning was a prophecy - eight Elders, and one
little girl
back in 1964. The emphasis then, as it is now, was on the healing
effects of family in the indigenous tradition. Historically Indigenous
Elders have always been sought out as healers, often when no hope is
left to
be found. In the 60s, the Flower Children came to the reservations to
find a way to peace; a more holistic way of being. Since then, many
have become interested in the prophecies of these changing times.
The Yraceburu Family, the lineage of the Quero Apache Tlish Diyan...
Snake Clan, have long held the prophecies of Taanaashkaada--the Great
Coming Together--a moment in shifting time, where peace and beauty can
be found through responsible co-creation, and that's what we share at
Yraceburu EarthWisdom. Certainly, our lineages have used their
knowledge to achieve the goal of Making Relations, but the work
is mostly about releasing the dysfunctions of the past, meeting
friends, taking time off with the extended family, and celebrating
life. The benefits are health and a sense of purpose.
Yraceburu EarthWisdom is much more than just a spiritual community, but
all our workshops, healing sessions and sacred sites pilgrimages are
designed to compliment that amazing feeling of belonging that occurs
when we take off our masks and return to the earth to live in basic
principles that align and connect.
Message from
Grandfather Juan Ten Bears Yraceburu
"A conspiriacy of
energy warms the time, while behind the
Fog of Confusion we are lulled softly, teasing the
unknown senses. The silhouette of pines, a dark and
steady murumur against Grandfather Sun, anchors
us in sacred Changing Mother. Our Animal Relations
breathe enticing us to connect, thoughts to
touch, revealing truth of hearts. Our vulnerable joy,
innocent and pure as it was in the beginning of time with
exquisite trust and knowing, touches sacred purpose
with one flash. We move through feelings of foolishness,
overwhelmed by the acceptance and again we
marvel at our capacity of co-creation..."
Grandfather Ten Bears was
revered throughout the world as a progressive and knowing Holy Man
of the Quero Apache Tlish Diyan tradition. The image of the saintly old
gentleman, effortlessly demonstrating miraculous feats is a familiar
one. The truth of the philosophy behind his strength, the story behind
the unsurpassed prowess to be found within the fluctuating cycles of
the Tlish Diyan Wheel of Life, and the true emissions of this
man's unique message lie in the work he has left to his granddaughter,
Maria Yracébûrû and EarthWisdom.
Ten Bears was the
wisest man I have ever known. I am who I am because of the
generosity of his heart.
I only pray I am 1/10th as unconditional as he was. - Maria
