I was taught by many elders that the first thing they ask when some one comes to them is.
Who are you? Who or what do you think of yourself.
Where are you from? Both the community and/or the family you are from.
Why are you here? Both the reason for coming to the elder and your perceived purpose in life.
Grand mother added the following to those three.
What are you doing about it? What you are doing to heal yourself or whatever you came to the elder for.
I added one more.
How will what your doing affect the next seven generations?
Even if your not going to a elder it would serve you well to ask the five questions to yourself every so often.
