Who We are
Church of the Spiritual Path was organized in the United States on February of 1998 however its board of directors have been working for many years in the spiritual field in different countries working independently serving their communities as healers and spiritual councilors. At a spiritual gathering on prophesies and world conditions held in Guatemala in 1995 they realized more could be done working together as an organization. The Church is now a non-profit organization with (501)(c)(3) recognition. All donations are of course 100% tax deductible.
Board of Directors
Patricio Dominguez
We have been around for a long time and will be around for a long time more.
As an enlightened soul I have taken responsibility as a co-creator of the world we live in and I usually incarnate during interesting times like these.
I was born in the Southwest United States into the Pueblo de Las Cruces tribe in the Spring of 1949 and given the name Patricio my family name is Dominguez.
At the age of five I was presented in a public ceremony to the medicine men to be blessed as a man of spiritual knowledge.
My youth was spent in a small traditional community accumulating the spiritual knowledge that is necessary for life and I was cultured by the contact of not only my parents and Grandparents that lived in the community but I was fortunate enough to have a Great grandmothers influence until I was 13. My Great grandmothers specialty was healing with herbs and my grandmother healed by the power of touch now called Reki, Joray etc..
In the spring
of my life I was Married in the Native Tradition to a nice Navajo Lady. We have
been blessed with two children and two
Great Grand Children.
Being raised with my Japanese (Shinto)
grandfather and Indian grandmother taught me at an early age that being
multicolored corn was good medicine and good teaching.
I had to learn to reconcile imposed differences and learn to balance all
of who I am. Many people still ask
me, “Well, which one are you? Are
you Mexican, Indian, or Japanese?” All
I can say is that I am all of my ancestry.
Instead of the word “or” just say “and”, then you know me. Much like the rainbow which is many colors and does not get
“mixed-up” nor have a need to
be more one color than another.
My multiple heritage has positively
influenced my academic and professional development.
In conjunction with earning a BA in clinical psychology and an MA in
multicultural Counseling, for the past 14 years I have been involved in learning
various indigenous healing ways. I
have also been a Reiki practitioner for 8 years and am currently working towards
becoming a Reiki Master.
Although since childhood I have been called
through dreams and visions to learn the ancient ways of helping people, I do not
consider myself a healer. I
believe healing is a process that stems from our connections with the spiritual
and natural. But in a humble way, I
think humans can help others to reconnect to the Great Spirit and Mother Earth
in order to restore balance, harmony, and beauty.
I began working with the Maya under the
auspices of Erick Gonzales approximately five years ago.
The Maya brought me to great healing and transition in my life.
I began to accept my calling and my responsibilities to community.
With Erick I helped to coordinate the gatherings of various indigenous
nations; Maya, Mexica, Cherokee, Nambe, Tesuque, Dine and others, in my home as
well as at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. I have also been fortunate to lead Talking Circle for women,
and am currently working with counseling youth and families in the South Valley
of Albuquerque.
Although I think that I will always be
learning, I feel that it is time for me to pay a debt to those teachers and
aquiqs who have helped me in my humble path.
The Maya accepted me into their circle, their family and I only wish to
give back in whatever capacity the Spirit designs for me.
