Hello Red Elk

It was my pleasure to send you the donation, my only regret is that I could not currently afford to add an extra zero to the end of it!

Blessings

There was a “sender”.  A dollar…sometimes 2.  “The WIDOW’S MITE”.  Worth more to US (Him / Me) then HUNDREDS!  THANK YOU AGAIN.  re

Hello Red Elk

I am really grateful that I found your blog, and consider it a true blessing.  I am really impressed with you mentioning the hobbit house in Wales, Simon dale and his family who created that has has now moved to an eco-village in Wales called Lammas.  There new place is similar to their hobbit house, just on a larger scale.  I am hoping to make something cheap and affordable when we move to an Eco-village in Portugal, but we are planning to  build a partially sub-merged earth bag (super adobe) dome, similar to what they build at cal earth.

May I ask you advise on whether it is ok to communicate with Father/God using such tools as I ching, Tarot etc?  I think that I have actually heard God’s voice about 13 years ago, sitting on a chair drifting off to sleep when I heard a loud male voice call my name, more of a shout really, but it was enough for me to jump out of my chair and run to the stairs expecting to see my dad waiting for me, but there was no one in the house!  I have always wondered if that was indeed the big man upstairs so to speak.

Blessings on your work, and I look forward to the book and further updates on the domes.  Talking about domes, how did you install the fires, and what did you do for a chimney?

Blessings

P.S.  You are totally correct about the law of three, people don’t need more than three chances, in my experience, if you give people more than 3 chances then you are setting yourself up for a lot of pain!

Brother,  BEST TO YOU ON YOUR BUILDING!  Knew the Wales family were considering another spot.  Would like to keep up on their efforts…any idea of how to find out more?

I know nothing on I Ching…BUT ABSOLUTELY do NOTHING with TAROT!  NOT at ALL OF “DAD”!

Your ONLY “Safe” way is via the Bible.  NO RELIGION…and NOT as Messed With by man as it is.  That’s why I tell :  USE A CONCORDANCE when reading.  So MUCH “man” add-ons and Changing over the centuries…it, well….WHAT A MESS!  Still, with a CONCORDANCE, that “mess(ing)” can be TOTALLY OBLIVIATED.  Then, and ONLY then, will you find HIS PRECISE “Tellings”.  This what we 12 call PURE(ity). Aho?

I’d advise NO “shortcuts”.  Up to you tho…your “path”.  Aho?

WAS it “Dad” calling?  Doubtful.  IF IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES…an EXCELLENT chance it WAS / IS!  3 TIMES!  aho?

There are scriptures concerning just this!

Hello Red Elk

I have just purchased the Strongs Concordance book, I am very very serious about learning.  I have also been reading the other book you suggested about the Masters in the far east.  You said on your website about talking to God, and that you should just ask and then shut up.  What I am really confused over is how does God communicate with us?  Is it verbal, via dreams or syncronistic events??

I have tried to find the answer in the bible, but I seem to be really really lost!

Do you still have those lessons that you were selling on your website a few years ago, I would be very interested in purchasing as much true information that will enable to learn the truth.

Thank you my friend.

Thanks for reminding me about ‘home work’, I am sitting here with my strongs concordance, didn’t realise just how big it would be!  I will be sending you another donation for all the help you have given me.  I really appreciate it!

Do you think that humans are capable of becoming immortal, if we follow God’s law to the letter?  I was reading about the 10 commandments, I have never heard you talk about them, should we follow them?  I follow a lot of them naturally, but some seem harder than ever to stick to in this modern age.

I am sorry to hear about your dog, at least he is happy in doggy heaven!  That has actually made me feel better, as we may have to put our dog to sleep, and the guilt over this may just about kills us all.

Thank you

God Bless!

The FULL Concordance IS Huge!  NOT so the TINY “Part” one some bibles contain.  NOT at ALL COMPLETE. Now you have the WHOLE ONE!  GOOD!

Yes on immortal.  BIBLE TELLS HOW.

10 Commandments:  “IF ANY DOES but ONE of these…THEY have Done ALL!”

ONLY CHRIST can set ANY free from ALL these 10 LAWS.  Do you SEE what He’s DONE FOR US!???

WHEN you GROW In HIM…only ONE “LAW” REMAINS :  LOVE!

Miss all our pets…but KNOW THEY ALL ARE OK.  We’ll see each other again…and OFTEN.          GB   re

So if you have broken one of the commandments, you should ask God for forgiveness?

I am confused when you say that only in Christ can you be set free from?  We all should aspire to become a christ, but do we only become a Christ when we love God with all our heart and follow the ten commandments?

Serious head scratching here…

BOY do YOU NEED Learning!  ( :

YES…even if ANGRY (but don’t express it).  Remember…THOUGHTS are REAL!

Men see a “hot sweet thing” and imagine being in bed with them.  OH OH!   THOUGHTS ARE  REAL!

Yes: GET RIGHT as FAST AS POSSIBLE!

No one can   BE   CHRIST !  EVER!!!  We can, WITH HIS SUPPORT, be AS Him tho.  ChristLIKE.   Aho?

KNOW what ARE the 10 Commandments.  WHAT BIG BROTHER HAS SET YOU  F  R  E  E  FROM.  To one IN CHRIST, and VIA HIS SACRIFICE,  you IMPROVE and ARE “AWAY” FROM THOSE 10 “LAWS”.

Better to understand what His death did…and what the Father did, by BRINGING HIM BACK TO LIFE.  Aho?    re

(WS)

We give ALL 3 chances.   We NEVER GO BEYOND THAT.

For instance, if one SAYS “I’ll be there in 3 days”….AND DOES NOT SHOW UP…NOR calls to cancel…this then is #1.

We deem this as “An Accident”  (forgot / etc.).

If done AGAIN…this is #2.

This we call “a slap in the face”.

IF a THIRD TIME…it shows us that that one is EXPECTED to “Serve” them…at THEIR Whim and Call.  As if WE ARE THEIR PERSONAL SLAVES!

At that, we STOP ALL FURTHER CONTACT.

BUT they ALWAYS remain “Held Up to the Creator”.  IE : PRAYER.  Aho?

Scriptures tells “Turn the other cheek”….7 x 70 (I think).  IS THIS the TRUE “Word”?  OR A MAN (controller) ADD ON?

Scriptures ALSO say :  IF a brother is in the wrong…..GO to him ALONE and tell.

IF that one REFUSES TO “Listen”…TAKE ANOTHER WITH YOU and TRY AGAIN.

IF this one STILL refuses, THEN it says TAKE THEM BEFORE THE “BODY”.  Telling a third time.

IF that one STILL goes on doing wrong…The WORD then says “CAST THEM FROM THE GROUP”!

(Have NO MORE to do with him / her).

It THEN tells  “Do this so this one FEELS THEIR LOSS  (of friendship / fellowship) AND REPENTS.  THEN take him/her back”.

The OSTRACIZING is to TEACH to DO RIGHT…to Be HONEST / Etc..

Literally to BE CHRISTLIKE.  IE: be an EXAMPLE.  Aho?

I have seen ONE “return.”  He is STILL “In God”.

The MANY others tho, have gone to “Like Minded” of HIS / HER “way”.

MANY MANY  M  A  N  Y are now “part of a “fellowship” WHO ARE A CHURCH!  A “Christian” “Church”.

MOST in ANY “religion” are THIS WAY.

REFUSING to be WHOLY GODLY….but “Putting on the “face” of “being so”.

YOU / I / ALL know these LIARS.

I tell you true:  “it is NOT Easy being “Outside” the “ACCEPTED” “BOX”.

I find this passage saying “turn the other cheek” is NOT GOD-MADE, but MAN-DOING.

This passage has done GREAT HARM…Physically And Mentally.  God Lovers THINKING they are “doing as God has told” who become ABUSED.  Sometimes TO ACTUAL DEATH.

Hear me: I am NO ONE’S FOOL!  NO one’s SLAVE!

I /we are NO BETTER than ANYONE…NOR ARE ANY BETTER THAN I / WE.

We 12 go by His “Rule Of Three” scripture.

We ABSOLUTELY REJECT the, to us, FALSE Teaching of “turn the other cheek…”7X70”, one.

This is something ONLY YOU can decide on.

I tell AGAIN, The BIBLE is FULL of MAN CONTROLLING TEACHINGS.

Yes, its VERY prevalent….BUT “HIS” PURE WORD IS STILL IN THERE!

A CONCORDENCE with BIBLE READING Is Your ANSWER to GETTING BACK TO PURITY.

Up to you.

As readers all know…I’m “into” VERY Low-Cost SALVAGED-TO-BUILD domes.   I’ve learned alot.  Also that most “couldn’t” live in things so small.  In days ahead MANY will LEARN tho!

Mine are 10 cents to $350.00…(last quite “fancy”…thus the higher cost).

Sky’s FAR bigger and I expect it to go about $200.00…”FANCY”!

For any contemplating similar…AND HAVE MONEY…there are FASTER and STRONGER, EASY Ones that can be built.  Still very cheap.

I hope to put out a book on these (in time).

One thing I’d do differently (given the $$) would be to FIRST “fit out” the FURNITURE placement….THEN the Size needed to contain these.

Still wont be a Square Box “mansion”, but EXTREMELY AFFORDABLE.   Say about $5,000.00.

If you go to “Search” and type in HOBBIT HUT IN WALES  you will find EXACTLY what I’m talking about.  4 months and under $10,000.00 MOVE IN READY.  Self-Built.  CHECK IT OUT!   Mine are on that “line”.  Our one on other property about This size…and quite similar (we hope).  34 ft inside diameter by 18 ft tall.  Adding an extension to it as well.  That area as Kitchen / Toilet / Storage.  Built for our family of 6.  Only expect 3 tho.

Anyway, adding this to this post…in case any would like to get into “housing” without an “arm and a leg”.  THAT’S EXACTLY WHY I’M BUILDING THESE.  An EXAMPLE to give HOPE to the Homeless and families “doubling up” at relatives’ homes.  I’d like to see a “movement” of Like-Minded.  HELPERS HELPING OTHERS!  Aho?   re

(WS)

My visiting friend saw the domes.  VERY IMPRESSED.  Adam’s dome’s SIMPLICITY the MOST!    “ALL anyone NEEDS. ALL!  And so SIMPLE!  I can see 2 – 3 together…tunneled one to another.  The old Eskimo Igloo way.  This is NICE!”  Blew him away to see #1…then Sky’s!  THIS is FANTASTIC!”  But Adam’s ease of making has his most attention.   ( :   re

(WS)

I’m always thinking.  Now trying to figure out: can dry WEEDS replace alot of WOOD to heat?

The domes I’m making each have fire “places”.  To get started I simply “rack up” (by hand) handful(s) of the dead weeds just outside their doorways.  Cleaning the area at the same time.  The Hundreds of dry Willow “stems” I break into pencil-size pieces.  Start the fires by 1st putting in a piled handful of dry weeds…”TiPi” the dry willows over this…light the weeds…and the fire is “on its way”. Adding bigger wood as it goes.

When fire gets low…I simply add more weed “fodder”.  Aho?

As an experiment I use, too, old dry / rotted straw.  Found it Has to be broken up…”pads” throw out TOO MUCH smoke.  Broken, a “pad” burns Fast and CLEAN.  (I have quite a bit of this “useless” straw).

Tried the straw as garden “helper”….WINDS WHIPPED ‘EM ALL AWAY.  So…this.  Aho?

So, between 9.28 acres of WEEDS…and about 11 bales of “useless” straw bales…we aren’t hurting for Fire STARTER.  Aho?

But a Bucket of this can start a WEEK’S worth of fires.  WHAT DO WE DO WITH THE REST?  HOW can we SAVE on TREE burning use?

Are WEEDS…COMPRESSED, perhaps an answer?

Once we lived by a HUGE sawdust / shavings pile.  Took paper bags, made sure the chips / etc. were well dried (spread out in sun / raked)….and mixed the with small wood chips mixed in.  We’d use 1 to 3 bags (ends folded over) to heat our home during the night.  Kept the house comfortable ALL night on these.  Cut our LOG consumption to almost HALF.

As the “dust” smoldered in the bags, they’d catch the CHIPS on fire…and this would continue the unlit “dust”.  Was a beautiful “mating”.

Now, no sawdust pile…BUT LOTS OF WEEDS!

Wondering if one can make Weed PELLETS for Pellet Stoves.  Weed “BRICKS” (compressed with car hydraulic jack) as “WOOD”.  ???

I once worked at a Wood Box Factory.  SAWDUST GALORE.  BIG HUGE Electric Press…unused, in the shop.  Got permission to use it.  MADE SAWDUST “BRIQUETTES”!   The owner took ‘em home AND USED ‘EM TO REPLACE HIS WOOD in their House Heating Wood Stove.  Told me: “You’re ONTO SOMETHING!”   They sold the shop before the “something” could “come to any use”.  So….???

Weeds tho, found about anywhere…can maybe “do” the same thing.  No one wants WEEDS …dry or not…in their garden Organic Mix.  So, WHAT GOOD ARE THEY!

Nature uses ‘em TO SPREAD FIRES.  Right?  WHY NOT CONTAIN THEM for YOUR USE?

Just ‘tossing this out’ to you, the reader, to think about.  Might help “MOM” / NATURE / AND keep your place Fire Resistant and “groomed”…and YOU BENEFIT FROM this “Useless” By-Product of NATURE.  Aho?

Good luck.    re

$$ for Kids

Today’s kids often have no way to “get a job”.  No longer can find/turn in Pop and Beer bottles in most states like when I was a boy.  SOME States still do (Oregon for one).

But there are still OTHER ways….Lawn Cutting….Weeding….General yard Cleaning….Etc.

If you’re on a Shipping (ships) area….and the kid(s) like to fish,  Well, here, boys go catch CARP / Etc., then take um to the Big Ship Docks and look for Asian Freighters.  Selling their catch “on the spot” to the cook(s).  Do alright too!

Any can do this. Adults as well.  Just keep ’em on ice.  Aho?

Carp / Suckers / +, NEED NO LICENSE TO CATCH  (CHECK tho first) and you can catch NO LIMIT….YEAR ROUND.

I made decent $$ selling WORMS on “to the lake” Roads.  Up to 6 years ago I sold these as bait.  Just spent a few hours with a “part Dead” flashlight and got Dozens of Nightcrawlers.  Kept ’em in WET NEWSPAPER in my “worm box”.  Had a good thing going til the County added Chlorine to their water.  KILLED ‘EM ALL!

My favorite tho was (and STILL IS)  Shallow Water SALVAGE.  Tie a steel rake to a strong line…”dredge” the dock (Etc.) Bottom…snag and bring up the “catch” and owners paid / pays VERY WELL.  Rare for me to Skin Dive for things.

The biggest “catch” was a BRAND NEW FIBERGLASS DINGY!  Owner never DID tell me how he managed to sink it.  In under an hour I had $300.00.

Taught this to Matt (oldest grandson).  This early summer he “contracted” to salvage a 16 ft. Fiberglass canoe.  In under an hour…$100.00!

I’ve even made $$ live trapping loose PETS.  The old BOX and STICK (with string to me, in hiding).  EASY MONEY!   ($20.00 for a Hamster…$15 for cats / Etc.).

Make $$s Dowsing broken pipes to run-away pets too….but that takes some time learning.  Sky (youngest grandson) does this now too (I taught him).  He’s learning “Map Dowsing” now as well. CHECK IT OUT (internet) and PRACTICE.

There IS $$ for kids, if given a little thought.  Boys and Girls alike.  Aho?  re

Went to Habitat Store.  In their “Free” (wood scrap) pile where about 40 old SPLIT CEDER FENCING Horizontal “boards”.  WOW!  Loaded all.  Then a gal came out and said “Those are NOT FREE…they’re $1.00 each”.  Me: “One of your guys said they WERE…and they ARE at your FREE Pile area”.  Her:  “We just haven’t put a sign on it”.

Ok, took all off and she got a sign on it Immediately.

WAS A REASON:  Another came out to help unload.  A kid in his mid 20s.

“What were you going to use these on?”   I explained about my Low Cost Dome-making for the homeless / etc.  HE WILL BE COMING OUT THIS AFTERNOON with 1 or more friends…TO LEARN TO BUILD ONE!

We got on the SPIRITUAL…HE’S a SEARCHER!  HUNGER for a LIVING God!   “I go to many different churches…none seems to fill my need.  All seem …. (hesitant)…well……..more “man”, than “GOD”.

LET’S SEE WHERE THIS LEADS!   Will keep you informed.  ( :    re

Friends, there’s alot of Free Food about you….IF you know WHAT is Edible, What it Looks Like and HOW to Prepare it.  EVEN IN WINTER.
Tho my mother “fought” Indianhood…there was ONE thing she enjoyed so much, she used it and taught it:  FISH PATTIES.   From what is normally considered “trash” fish.  Carp / Suckers / Gar / Etc.  These ARE Delicious!  But don’t take my word for it….there’s plenty of recipes on the Internet.
Weeds, as well as some of your FLOWERS, are Great eating, TOO.
Honestly, there’s no good reason to go hungry in most of this country.
Or to buy MANY MEDICINES!  These plants also HEAL.
Again, INTERNET, folks.

Ive reuest WS  and H to post this WITHOUT CORRECTIONS…..(gonna b ruff, folks):
I quit school at age 15.  9th grade.  Faild it.  Not because I was dumb, but because I had more importent things to study….”Medicin”.
I knew enough to do the reading n math to make my way through life.  Had no intentions of being a Rockit Scintist…Engineer…Etc..  i KNEW my calling..  HS wouldnt help in this one bit.
I had faild because of this.  The MUCH FEARD Truint Officer never cought me….everyone ELES, but never myself.
Who would exspect a ‘truint’ to b in the city librays, STUDYING?  “Anchent Ways”….Hypnoses…History of others on our countinit, Ect.?
When not in tese (Detroit has some GREAT Librarys), Id b at the MUSIUMS.  Again, 1st hand SEEING.
Then, if not in any of thsese, Id b off behind the big auto plants, tracking the many ENORMIS deer / etc. in the strips of bush / trees n trash the city never took care of.  Not a Park (as ud call a park) but a PARIDICE to wildlife…n thus, to ME!
The small mendering creeks n streems, filled with floating oil, trash, old tires, etc. TEAMING with fish.  BIG ONES!  Never DID see a Carp, or a Sucker….EVER.  But saw RECORD BREAKING Bluegills and Trout!  Never saw another human, ether….OR the Truint Officer.  ( :
Id trap Phasents…Rats…Farrow Cats…Racoons (live traping)…and use a willow branch as a fishing pole. Made my own hooks…but store bought fishing line (untill I learned how to make my own from green long weed leafs).  Everything found “on the spot”. This “usless and “STUPID” kid, dressed as a “hood”…had a BALL!  Building hideing places as Id go.  Little sleeping “huts” that fit into the area.  Nights out in these.  Tiny LOW fires in cleared brush to break up the smoke…hidden fires so as not to b detected. This “hood” was HAVEING a BALL!
Then, emerge to Taxis, City Busses, Noises (that had been dulled by the factorys masses) and hundreds of cars n predestriens…and FULL sunlight…SHOCKING to the sences!  Then onto a bus, or hitch hikeing….back home again.  A few days WHERE I “BELONGED” now behind me….the “normol” (WHITEMAN) world.  ugh!
My mother had long ago stoped worrying about me.  She had her own “life” and one less “kid” was alright with her.  (She was a ‘party girl’).
Trying to ‘hide’ her Indianess…telling all she was “Egyption” (hi ck. bones / etc.)…she did all she could to fit into the “white” world.  Ashamed of being NA.  ! was ASHAMED of HER!
Anyway…did as I needed to do, schoolwise.
Always WANTING a COLLEGE Education….eventualy (after 3 attempts) I managed to “tough it out” n passeds my GED test….then to 2 colleges.  Last just for Fun (likes the campis).  Studying in these things I could choose.  Things needed to help round off my ‘calling’.
Yup, this miss-spelling twit has a COLLEGE Degree!  ( :   (Only one yr. at #2 college…and, for fun…AND to futher my “Med.” training).
As u can c, my spelling is, well, sorta “off”. BUT U CAN READ IT!  Thats all u need as far as Im concerned.
Its not “Whitman” rules “way”…but at least ur understanding anyway.  (U outta c my COLLGE CLASES NOTES….my form of PETROGLIFS!  That only I CAN read. Aho?)!
Eventualy I joined the Navy.  ‘Survived’ THAT.  Fun, but got out as fast as I could.  The wouldnt give me what I had signed up for.  Just wasnt worth it.
Then, to marryed life.  At 26 (n officil batchler, as was my goal) I found “The Warden”.  Been a prisoner every sence.  Cant recall how many yrs, but over 40.
When I clled my mother to tell her I was geting marryed….her words went “Congradulations”….no, it was “is she INDIAN!”  Like spit comeing out of her mouth. (She realy had a “problem”).  ( :
When we adopted r daughter…a COLLVILL NA Child…..oh oh!
Yup, mom sure had a ‘problem’.
When my mother finily passed away….I felt no more oblagation to “honor” her “WE R WHITE” issue, and went from HER Nameing us…to my REAL name.  Yes, I am legely Red Elk.  Aho? No first name.  No last name…just Red (ElkRedElk).  Aho?
I am NOT related to ANY Red Elks in NA land.  Mine given in a Sacred Cerimony.
Wasnt MY choice…was GIVEN it.  Aho?
So, here I am, a Meti (“Half Breed”).  “2 Shoes” sorta being.   One Mocc., One Street shoe.
