Chapter Thirteen: The Sweet Hereafter
Be Rendered Sent To The Hereafter
The earth is a great island floating in a sea of water, and suspended at each of the four cardinal points by a cord hanging down from the sky vault, which is of solid rock. When the world grows old and worn out, the people will die and the cords will break and let the earth sink down into the ocean, and all will be water again. The Indians are afraid of this.
When all was water, the animals were above in Gălûñ′lătĭ, beyond the arch; but it was very much crowded, and they were wanting more room. They wondered what was below the water, and at last Dâyuni′sĭ, “Beaver’s Grandchild,” the little Water-beetle, offered to go and see if it could learn. It darted in every direction over the surface of the water, but could find no firm place to rest. Then it dived to the bottom and came up with some soft mud, which began to grow and spread on every side until it became the island which we call the earth. It was afterward fastened to the sky with four cords, but no one remembers who did this.
At first the earth was flat and very soft and wet. The animals were anxious to get down, and sent out different birds to see if it was yet dry, but they found no place to alight and came back again to Gălûñ′lătĭ. At last it seemed to be time, and they sent out the Buzzard and told him to go and make ready for them. This was the Great Buzzard, the father of all the buzzards we see now. He flew all over the earth, low down near the ground, and it was still soft. When he reached the Cherokee country, he was very tired, and his wings began to flap and strike the ground, and wherever they struck the earth there was a valley, and where they turned up again there was a mountain. When the animals above saw this, they were afraid that the whole world would be mountains, so they called him back, but the Cherokee country remains full of mountains to this day.
When the earth was dry and the animals came down, it was still dark, so they got the sun and set it in a track to go every day across the island from east to west, just overhead. It was too hot this way, and Tsiska′gĭlĭ′, the Red Crawfish, had his shell scorched a bright red, so that his meat was spoiled; and the Cherokee do not eat it. The [240]conjurers put the sun another hand-breadth higher in the air, but it was still too hot. They raised it another time, and another, until it was seven handbreadths high and just under the sky arch. Then it was right, and they left it so. This is why the conjurers call the highest place Gûlkwâ′gine Di′gălûñ′lătiyûñ′, “the seventh height,” because it is seven hand-breadths above the earth. Every day the sun goes along under this arch, and returns at night on the upper side to the starting place.
There is another world under this, and it is like ours in everything—animals, plants, and people—save that the seasons are different. The streams that come down from the mountains are the trails by which we reach this underworld, and the springs at their heads are the doorways by which we enter it, but to do this one must fast and go to water and have one of the underground people for a guide. We know that the seasons in the underworld are different from ours, because the water in the springs is always warmer in winter and cooler in summer than the outer air.
When the animals and plants were first made—we do not know by whom—they were told to watch and keep awake for seven nights, just as young men now fast and keep awake when they pray to their medicine. They tried to do this, and nearly all were awake through the first night, but the next night several dropped off to sleep, and the third night others were asleep, and then others, until, on the seventh night, of all the animals only the owl, the panther, and one or two more were still awake. To these were given the power to see and to go about in the dark, and to make prey of the birds and animals which must sleep at night. Of the trees only the cedar, the pine, the spruce, the holly, and the laurel were awake to the end, and to them it was given to be always green and to be greatest for medicine, but to the others it was said: “Because you have not endured to the end you shall lose your hair every winter.”
Men came after the animals and plants. At first there were only a brother and sister until he struck her with a fish and told her to multiply, and so it was. In seven days a child was born to her, and thereafter every seven days another, and they increased very fast until there was danger that the world could not keep them. Then it was made that a woman should have only one child in a year, and it has been so ever since.
Howdy,
I thank you; Mr. Sanjeev and senior members of this family and I deliver my profound reverence to people who introduced me with this wonderful family. These are great moments for speaking and shearing my recent experience as an actual proof of my faith and practice. Because of this, Inner transformation rewired my monkey mind to say goodbye to lovely habit of cigarette smoking.
Imoking even after serious Road Accident in 2003. I got brain hemorrhage that put me on sleep in deep coma on ventilator for 28 days. It was miracle in my life how I was saved! I am thankful to God! I came out and I found that my mind and my body were in bad shape. I joined meditation camp. Thank God! hereafter, I spent several months on doing meditation and treatment by naturopathy did not work out for quitting that lovely habit.
During last few years, I came in contact with followers of Buddhism of Nichiren Daishonin. I learnt Daimoku and chanted for few days. Lemme tell you that was great experience, indeed, but I stopped doing in between and went along with usual flow of life. I was into a comfort zone where I never pushed myself too hard.
Then, within these last 5 years even more, my life crumbled. Financial & Health problems and my contact with successful world where I worked hard for life time was fading away. My valuable contacts were slipping from the chambers in my long-preserved treasures.
My life took a strange turn. Doctors, warned me of smoking and asked me to go Cold Turkey, But, Smoking, my second half was walking along everywhere.
In beginning of 2019, I again started practicing Nichiren Buddhism with faith and dedication. I started doing Daimoku of faith. Good fortune began rolling in me gradually moving in me by me. Its rhythm and vibrations began correcting me from inside by rewiring my monkey mind. Book, making the Impossible Possible was a game changer for breaking my comfort zone and my dependence on smoking. My realization took positive turn as New Human Revolution ignited within me. The question was repeated million times: Am I willing to change? Am I willing to struggle patiently towards goal? I got all my answers while studying Buddhism.
Since, stand-alone spirit is moving eternally during these lockdown days. One day, I won, Yes, I won in May 2020! Surprisingly, cravings never overpowered me after saying good bye to smoking.
Today I am determined to fight for kosen rufu and more active in Gakkai activities.

Because of this, Inner transformation rewired my monkey mind to say goodbye to lovely habit of cigarette smoking.
I can’t recollect exactly when I started smoking. All, I can remember that I started socially in the company of few friends in my rock band during college days.

I tried quitting it by self-confidence and by different means, but I failed to do so. remained enslaved for years and years till past few months.
I knew Cigarette is a poison but I was helpless. It’s beautiful to remember those smokey and acid rock days now. Well, Lot many things happened during those years of tests and trials.

Howdy, Thank yawl fahwar givin' may few moments tuh spake an share mah recent experience as an actual proof uh mah faith an practice. Inner transformation rewired mah mind tuh kewyut bayud habit uh cigarette smokin'. Ah can’t rilly, recollect wheyun Ah started smokin'. All, Ah can remember thet Ah started socially in thuh company uh few friends in mah rock band durin' college days. It developed in tuh habit or part uh daily lahf. Thus nicotine fluid iz responsible fahwar many social, personal an business failure, out uh which health wuz thuh major concern tuh count fahwar. Ah tried kewyuttin' it by self-confidence an by difernt means, but Ah failed tuh do so. remained enslaved fahwar years an years till past few months. Ah knew Cigarette izza poison an Ah wuz helpless. Verbawly abusin' mahsef million tahms iz butiful tuh remember now. Wayul, Lot many thangs happened durin' them years uh tests an trials. Ah could not leave smokin' evun after serious Road Accident) in 2003. Ah got brain hemorrhage thet put may on sleep in deep coma fahwar 29 days. thet made may tuh bay on ventilator fahwar 28 days. Ah wuz saved! Several months on doin' silent meditation an treatment by naturopathy didunt work out fahwar kewyuttin' thet luvly habit. Durin' last few years Ah came in contact with fallerers uh Buddhism uh Nichiren Daishonin. Ah learnt Daimoku an chanted fahwar few days. Lemme tell yawl thet wuz great experience, indeed, but Ah stopped doin' in between an went along with usual flow uh lahf. Cirgette smokin' wuz walkin' with may lahk an sekunt half. Ah wuz into uh comfort zone whayer Ah nevur pushed mahsef too hayud. Then, within these last 5 years evun more, mah lahf crumbled. Financial & Health problems an mah contact with successful warld whayer Ah worked hayud fahwar lahf tahm wuz fadin' awf. Mah valuable contacts wuz slippin' frum thuh chambers in mah long-preserved treasures. Mah lahf took uh strange turn. Doctors, warned may uh smokin' an asked may tuh go Code Turkey, But, Smokin', mah sekunt half wuz walkin' along everywhere. In beginnin' uh 2019, Ah again started practicin' Nichiren Buddhism with faith an dedication. Ah started doin' Daimoku uh faith. Good fortune began rollin' in may gradually movin' in may by may. Its rhythm an vibrations began correctin' may frum n-sod by rewirin' mah monkey mind. Book, makin' thuh Impossible Possible wuz uh game changer fahwar breakin' mah comfort zone an mah dependence on smokin'. Mah reeyulization took positive turn as New Hawh?man Revolution ignited within may. Thuh question wuz repeated million tahms: Am Ah willin' tuh change? Am Ah willin' tuh struggle patiently towards goal? Ah got all mah answers while studyin' Buddhism. Since, stand-alone spirit iz movin' eternally durin' these lockdown days. Wun day, Ah won, Yayus, Ah won in Maey 20520! Surprisingly, cravings nevur overpowered may after sayin' good bye tuh smokin'. Tuhday Ahm determine tuh fite fahwar kosen rufu an more active in Gakkai activities. -- Anupam Sharma
