Chapter 8 -- Maman Loba

Late that first night, after the dance's close... I awoke with a start. What was that sound? I listened intently. Wolves?... All my senses were sharpened by fear. I felt their wild cries in my body. Excitement filled me as I listened to the wolves and allowed myself to receive their songs. Soon my fear subsided as I remembered hearing their calls many times in the past...

Whispers of the Soul: Journeys to the Other Side of Life
by Josiane Antonette

Reviewed by Rev. Dr. Sandra Gaskin

I felt strangely ‘drawn’ to this book right away, which is always a good sign of receiving something that I truly need.
By the end of the book, I was experiencing ‘Godbumps’ i.e. ‘goosebumps’, & knew that I had definitely learned much
by reading Ms. Antonette’s story.

Josiane was born in France and raised for awhile by a spiritually intuitive grandmother. In early adulthood, she
had a near-death experience which profoundly affected the rest of her life. Her circuitous route through
personal growth, relationships, and healing ministries make for an exciting and inspiring adventure.

I found that I could not set the book down for long, eager to see where Spirit was leading this dedicated and compelling
individual. The book culminates with her immersion into Native American culture, and I was literally ‘swept away’ by
the colorful descriptions of ritual and ceremony. It took me back to my own Cherokee tribal roots, and I could hear
Spirit gently whispering, ‘Remember... remember.’

I highly recommend this book to all ‘seekers’ along the Path. From novice to advanced teachers…it will be a blessing to
read. We all have unique and special stories to tell. Josiane Antonette shares hers so wonderfully!

A few of my favorite quotes from the book include:

(As Josiane is preparing for her guidance of the Sweat Lodge ceremony)
“When we sit down together in this lodge to commune with Great Spirit… it doesn’t matter what religions we each
follow, or what cultures we are from. This is about living life right here and now, grounded on our planet where we are,
as we are. We each may have different tools, different ways, but there is a part of us that is the same. In this lodge all
are welcome; this lodge is open to every expression of the divine.”

“Spirituality is not an experience; it is what we are. Spirituality is getting in touch with the natural flow of our own
lives and expressing that sacredness in our relationships, homes and working places. When we recognize the miracle of
life in everything, we understand our connection with the whole. Then we create a sense of wonder in our every day
lives—we create heaven on earth.”

“All lives are connected as one luminous web. Everything that grows, flies, swims, walks or crawls upon the
earth—every blade of grass, every person, every creature, all flowers, everything—is interconnected. As we honor and
clearly express ourselves fully, we honor all life, and we ensure the legacy of heaven on earth for future generations.”


Angelic blessings & happy reading!
