The spiritual essence of Fire has offered guidance to people since the dawn of humanity. These quotes come from Fire’s spoken expression through a “god-speaker-man,” Don David Wiley, a shaman and healer in the Huichol tradition of the western Sierra Madres.
Known as “Grandfather Fire,” this divine spirit offers guidance to help modern people reconnect with their own spiritual center, the Heart. Grandfather Fire makes public appearances to share this wisdom at Fire Speaks events around the world.
