What can 13 indigenous grandmothers do when they put their heads together? Answer: a whole hell of a lot. 

Singer, vegan and raw foodist Jason Mraz recently took to his personal blog to write about The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers and all their world-saving work. Mraz writes:

“Recently I was turned onto the work of the 13 Indigenous Grandmothers; an action team of women from the four corners of the globe who have formed an alliance to bring balance to Mother Earth and all her inhabitants for the next seven generations to come,“ he wrote in his latest blog. “To do work intended for seven generations is a remarkably selfless act indeed. Imagine making something that you know is meant for someone 200 years from now. It’s like planting a tree. In your lifetime you may not be able to swing from it’s branches, but long after you’re gone, many families will.“

The group is formed of women from all over the world who work together to represent a global alliance of prayer, education and healing for our Mother Earth, all Her inhabitants, all the children, and for the next seven generations to come.

Mraz continues, “Are you choosing to think it’s too late to save the planet because you’re not seeing immediate results? Are you personally choosing not to change your diet and bad habits because you think it will make this week suck? Well, think of that distant you in the future who will look back and hug you for the powerful shift in consciousness you decided to make right now.”

    Jason Mraz has been making my world a better place for years with his great music and “live high” attitude!

    Hey, Mraz isn’t vegan. According to his own blog he eats honey and adds “vaginal juice” to his smoothies. Whatever the juice thing means it does not sound vegan =D

  • Amber

    Yeah he’s not commited to being completely vegan yet, he says himself that he cheats. About the “vaginal juice” in his smoothies – I believe that is what is known as a joke :-)

    You crack me up that was a great line ;) Yes I think Amber is correct. Mr. Mraz just has himself one very funny sense of humor. And Johan you’re too cute whoever you are ;)

    I was thinking someone was going to say he ate Kentucky Friend Chicken or steaks on Sunday. I’m glad to see he’s pretty damn close… By the way that pic doesn’t do him justice. He’s quite adorably handsome.

    Jason Mraz is one of my favorite celebrities! I adore his music (I even use his songs as my alarm clock mp3!) and love that he actually cares about the world and himself. I’m a little disappointed that he’s not fully vegan yet, but hey almost there… it’s more than I can say for most people.

    Love you Jason! :) )
