TVD's Newest Lightning-Struck Shamanic Drum
 
Sold
(But I'll have another one ready soon!)



The Traveler brings the story of exploration and discovery in a sturdy hickory frame, but it also tells of trials and endurance. It is a very special partner for the healer who knows the beauty and hardship of initiation. See and hear The Traveler now, here. Now SOLD, but check back often to see the drum you've been waiting for! I'll post it soon.

Aho and Namaste, my friend.

       Welcome to my new site, the only one in the World that offers lightning-struck shamanic drums, natural jewelry and other spiritual objects for your sacred quest. I make everything shown on this site unless noted otherwise. I am honored by your visit.

This is also a teaching Website, where I share via writing, podcasts and downloads various shamanic and other spiritual concepts I have learned over many, many years of exploration.

Also, please note that I handle each order personally by phone or email, as it is essential that you have just the right sacred item you seek. We should consult about each item you may be interested in.

True, in this fast-paced world, you may rather click, order and split. But when it comes to obtaining something sacred, perhaps it is best to reflect, allow and manifest. Give it a try, and you may find that here, you are an honored friend and seeker, not a mere consumer. Unplug from the corporate culture and find the respect you deserve.

It is the shaman's way.

Aho and Namaste,
Bob

PS-- The site is graphics-heavy in order to show you important details of these drums and other items. Thus, you may find slow load times for some pages. I trust you will find the wait worthwhile!

Why Buy One Of These Sacred Shaman Drums In The First Place?



New!
Listen to this 13-minute excerpt from one of my podcasts explaining the sacred nature and science of using a Lightning-Struck drum to empower your spiritual quest and to facilitate your inner healer. Features the incredible music of Deva Premal and Miten (link will open in new window) at the end.



I'd also like to thank George Wood and Father Rock for the music used in the excerpt. You can find their music at PodSafeAudio.com
(Link will open in new window.)

Every Drum Includes:
  • Unlimited access to the owner of TVD, whether to consult about buying a drum or other product offered here, or to follow up with or to seek advice after a purchase. Call 270/766-1469 to get started or to make an appointment to meet in person.
  • Exclusive, unique, hand made ornaments and sacred objects.
  • Every drum can be played indoors or out.
  • An emerald chip is hidden in the frames of each Lightning-Struck drum to aid the user’s healing abilities. Similar emerald chips are affixed to Hoop drums.
  • A free beater.
  • A unique, individualized engraved symbol of authenticity for each Lightning-Struck drum.
  • Each Lightning-Struck drum is a one-of-a-kind because it’s made from a cross section of a tree or from a tree trunk. There will never be another one like it.
  • Because Lightning-Struck drums are not symmetrical, they will often produce dual tones when the heads are struck in certain places.
I make all Lightning-Struck drums, decorations, beaters, and do all fashioning and all other work.

Wow! Have I been working hard! Read all about it in the LATEST TVD NEWSLETTER! See the first file on the Free Downloads page for the Autumn 2010 newsletter. Enjoy!

8/18/10
I've been quite busy working on a great project I'll tell about in a week or so. So very exciting! And yes, been working on drums and having a class, too, so life is good.
Best blessings to you.

The Traveler Drum is now sold and will soon be on its way to a healer in England. I am so happy for both the drum and the healer, a wonderful pair! Healing energy around the globe. One day we will all network and find that beautiful Mother Earth heartbeat with the sound of united drums into one, and there will be a new world.

1.
I forgot to mention that the podcast with John Hogue is ready. See link above.

The second circle of the shaman training class is tomorrow. I am so looking forward to being with the great people who are taking the course. Healing energy will flow like water.


6/30/10
You can ask world famous astrologer/Nostradamus expert John Hogue a question if you send it to me before 2 p.m. today. I'm interviewing him for an upcoming podcast.

6/25/10
I will make this a prayerful day dedicated to a workable outcome for the Gulf oil spill and its impact upon all life. I know it may seem impossible to do anything about this tragedy, but you can! Many groups around the country are dedicating prayers and activist activities toward helping. You can do the same right at home with a prayer and focused intention. And when this spill has been contained, soon I pray, we must decide how best to proceed in our oil-dependent society. Surely it is time to re-think how we can cut down our consumption, better develop mass transportation, support local businesses, and on and on. The time for change is upon us.

6/15/10
The podcast featuring Jessica Murray is now available on the blog!
Also, we had the first circle of the new shaman training class on Saturday. Beautiful. Are you ready yet to take this class? We can start one quickly if you know someone who would like to take it with you. Please give this some thought in a quiet space and ask Spirit for clarity.

6/5/10
The interview with astrologer/author/teacher Jessica Murray is wonderful! Look for it in the Shaman Drums 2.0 Podcast on Tuesday, June 8. She is simply amazing!

6/2/10
Wow! The Traveler Drum came along much more quickly than I had anticipated! So happy to share it with you.

5/26/10
A new shaman training class has formed and is ready to go June 12.  If you would like to join in, please send me an email no later than May 31. More details here.

5/23/10
Well, after a short time off, I'm back at work (if one can call such a perfect experience as this "work"), and should have the hickory drum mentioned below posted before long. And then! Oh wow! I'm fashioning the largest TVD drums ever, and they are next in line! They are moderately-sized pow-wow, or group type drums with features you've never heard of before. Spirit has been leading the way and opening so many sacred paths for expression. Please don't take me wrong. This site and everything on it, including the drums, is so not about me, but about the concept of spiritual exploration and spiritual healing in union with Spirit. But this much I know, in all humility: These beautiful maple and cherry drums are arriving at a time to help address the great changes upon us and awaiting us. They will join with the energy of those drums previously purchased here and elsewhere by healers the world over, as it is now, or soon to be, a time for community.

And that makes "work" a true blessing.


5/10/10
There will be a slight delay in posting the drum mentioned below, probably by about a week. There's a very exciting reason, which I'll explain at the time the drum is posted. Many thanks.


5/6/10
I'm so excited to announce that I expect to have a lightning-struck drum available by next week, a beautiful, small hickory. It has decided it is ready to become a Thunder Valley Drum! 

PS-- A belated thanks to all who have sent email about the podcasts, the comic book and the new meditation! I greatly appreciate your support and the interaction as we join in a common exploration for truth amid the whirlwind of modern day life. Namaste.

I'm having fun, but my Web design skills are quite limited, so I'm flying by the seat of my pants!

For sure, the site is graphics-heavy, so please allow load-time on certain pages--it's worth the wait! (I hope!)
