- Coyote
Medicine; Lessons from Native American
Healing
-
- Our ancestors knew
that nature was a constant surprise. Scientists are beginning to
come to the same conclusion. Coyote's wristwatch is a chemical
clock, a flash of nature that alternates once a second between all
of its molecules appearing perhaps blue and the next second,
appearing red. No scientist would have believed in such chemical
clocks if they had not been observed. Coyote, however, "knew" in
the space between the molecules, mocking our order of sense and
propriety.
-
- Still, the more we
know, the less we know. The most amazing things of earth and sky
perpetually elude our conventional science. What our grandfathers
and grandmothers taught us was to be open to the miraculous. As an
old Dineh song from Arizona says:
-
- ...
.I walk
in beauty
-
- Beauty
is before me,
- Beauty
is above me,
- Beauty
is below me,
- Beauty
is around me,
-
-
... ... ..I
walk in beauty
-
- The point of this
is that we can never know with certainty that which is possible
and that which is impossible. Our capacity to analyze and
apprehend the world is so limited that our goal of "full
knowledge" will never be realized.
-
- How does this
pertain to health care? This is how it pertains: We can never know
the limits of healing. We can never know with certainty who will
live and who will die - who will recover and who will not. Indeed,
we cannot even know - as I sometimes suspect - if death might not
be the ultimate healing for some people.
-
- The first lesson we
learned from our ancestors is to expect a miracle - to prepare in
all ways for it - to humbly believe that things beyond our ken are
possible, and yet realize that our hopes or our expectations may
not come to fruition. That our prayers may not be answered - at
least, not in the manner that we asked. In the vast complexity of
the universe, it would be thoughtless to imagine that each and
every one of our desires and wishes should always come true.
-
- In health care - or
in all ways of life - does that mean that we should not be
aligned with expectations, fruitions, possibilities, hopes,
the striving for and then the letting go of "full knowledge" - or
the lessons of the Coyote?
-
- I say that to not
be so aligned is a detriment both to our ability to heal - and our
capacity as a provider, to "care".
