INDIAN PRAYER FOR PEACE

juanita — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 04:19:50 GMT

Oh, Great Spirit who dwells in the sky, lead us to the path of peace and understanding, let all of us live together as brothers and sisters. Our lives are so short here, walking upon Mother Earth's surface. Let our eyes be opened to all the blessings you have given us. Please hear our prayers, Oh, Great Spirit.

juanita — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 01:59:55 GMT

This nation the US has forgotten about this part of their past history

* Reaching the Grassroots: The World-wide Diffusion of Iroquois Democratic Traditions by Bruce Johansen, April 2002 A new "influence" summary: Immigrants from Europe often have borrowed from native peoples, embraced this knowledge as their own, and then forgotten its origins. Meanwhile, the prevailing assumptions of the "winners'" histories condemn Native Americans as primitive and brutish. The reconstruction of history in its true complexity takes some work, since it often runs counter to the heavy weight of well-established assumptions. So it has been in the evolution of democracy, [Richard] Williams [executive director of the American Indian College Fund] believes: "The political structure of the great Iroquois Confederacy served as a model for democracy among the founding fathers, who wrote the Constitution based on `we the people,' something unheard of in the aristocratic, feudal societies of Europe. In fact, there is no word for `I' in any American Indian language, which was a profound concept to the framers who closely studied the tribes' customs, government and culture." .

RESULTS OF DEFENSE OF SACRED SANCTUARY IN BRAZIL

juanita — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 19:19:12 GMT

On tuesday december 11, the same day we had Save The Peaks rally in Pasadena (by the way all updates are at http://www.savethepeaks.org/) I got news from Brazil about the sacred sanctuary process and at least for now they won!!!!! because the condo project was considered unreasanoble. Here is the manifesto I translated and it was done by our indian brothers from Brazil and those words can represent all indigenous people in this world!!! Hail to the Condor/Eagle Alliance!!!!! Instituto HEDJADWHÁLYA Terra livre e Sagrada (Sacred and Free Land) Ministério dos Índios Espirituais (Minister of Sacred Indians) Last redoubt of the Great TUPÃ Spirit in Brasilia TO DEFEND THE SACRED SANCTUARY OF THE PAJES IS DEFENDING OUR MOTHER NATURE, IS DEFENDING THE PLAINS AND THE FOREST, IS DEFENDING BIO DIVERSITY, IS DEFENDING THE RIGHT OF THE CULTURAL RICHNESS, IS DEFENDING BILLIONS OF INVISIBLE AND SACRED BEINGS, IS DEFENDING THE FUTURE OF OUR CHILDREN, IS DEFENDING THE OUR LOVE OF ETERNAL LIFE !!! Brasília DF, BRAZIL Tuesday, 11 of December 2007 The civilized man, always wanting to conquer more and more territories, through his own greed, became a slave of himself. He is a slave of the 5 inner senses, and lost awareness of the divine, to live in a profane world of indulging in pleasures. To be Enslaved by profane forces is to be enslaved by the stomach, by sex, by greed through your eyes, by untruthful words, by pride of being socially well seen, through the illusion of the materialistic world. The drug in this profane world is to live denying the sacred world. There we can find the message of the great spirit, the great TUPÃ . YOU CAN’T BUILD A PEACEFUL SOCIETY, WITHOUT JUSTICE, WITHOUT EQUALITY, WITHOUT SPIRITUAL AND CULTURAL FREEDOM. THE PEACE SHOULD BE FOUND IN THE WORLD FOR EVERYONE OR THE GREAT TUPÃ WILL NOT LET THE UNJUST HAVE INNER PEACE! Those who don’t promote peace and justice in our earth and environment, in our societies and in our practices, will not find inner peace. “ Is this clear enough?! Go on!!! “ thus spoke our great Pajé. The respect in the sacred world is built based on the preservation of everything that was created by the spiritual world; it is Unalterable, untouchable, inviolable !!!. The preservation in the case of the Sanctuary of the Pajés is the non alteration of the ancestral messages by the hands of profane men, the non REMOVAL OF THE PLACE OF ANCESTRAL COLLECTIVE WORSHIP WHERE THE ACTUAL Indian inhabitants are practicing the original worshipping of the very first inhabitants from BRAZIL. This is the basis of the ORIGINAL NATIONAL CULTURE, a patrimony of HUMANITY. We will not be let some pretentious and ignorant immoral colonizers eliminate our ancestral religiosity and spirituality, not without a strong reaction from the people, through FAITH and moral justice, that are so much part of our BRAZILIAN PEOPLE. The profane always judge the spiritual world through ignorance, usually hiding behind the masks of lies and of hate and make up promises that will never be carried out. ENOUGH! THE BRAZILIAN PEOPLE are very aware and they are asking for expiation for the INDIGENOUS PEOPLE, THE ORIGINAL PEOPLE FROM OUR LAND BRAZIL. THIEVES, GET OUT OF THE INDIGENOUS LANDS, YOU BELONG IN THE INHUMAN JAILS THAT YOU BUILT YOURSELVES!!!! THIEVES SHOULD BE IN JAIL,IN OUR BRAZILIAN JAILS, THIS IS JUSTICE and the PRIDE of BRAZIL ! NÃO SE REMOVEM OS SANTUARIOS SAGRADOS DOS INDIOS. YOU CAN’T REMOVE THE SACRED SANCTUARIES OF THE INDIANS.
