Tom Brown’s Grandfather Wisdom

Tom Brown Jr.’s mentor, known as “Grandfather Stalking Wolf,” emphasized the importance of always having 3 to 5 good questions that one is working on in nature. This practice was rooted in the belief that curiosity and continuous learning are essential for deepening one’s connection with the natural world. According to Brown, Stalking Wolf taught that these questions should be meaningful and thought-provoking, guiding one’s observations and interactions with the environment. By maintaining a list of such questions, one remains engaged and attuned to the subtle nuances of nature, fostering a deeper understanding and respect for the natural world.
