    What a beatiful soul this elder has! The beauty of his heart is reflected on his face! Many things that were said in the video are true, but there is still one very important thing missing in the healing of the indigenous people. Healing can be done only by living in the truth. A partial truth is not the truth. Living in a partial truth will eventually bring to confusion, because it's the same as living in a lie. I can't say much, but you should know that on the other side of the globe, on this huge continent called Europe, there are more than 40 nations. The East and the West of Europe are two different worlds. You have to make a difference when you say that the Europeans did this to us. Who are those Europeans, any olive skin Romanian people with funny accents and who were discriminated themselves while living in Canada? Back in their country during the communist times the Eastern Europeans suffered way worse. The residential schools would've been the least worst in all the horror, tortures, genocide and persecution that they had to go through. But, surprisingly people who suffered the most are the ones with the highest integrity. The more the suffering, the higher the integrity. What do the Easterners have that not only help them survive, but also rejoyce in their suffering and the indigenous people don't? What is that thing missing? The indigenous culture is alive, but is incomplete and is still waiting to be completed. The indigenous heart is ready to receive the missing part so that they can be full and finally receive healing. I will give you a hint: not many people know that meanwhile the Westerners were spreading their "truth" on the Northen American continent, ten humble men from the East arrived on Kodiak island. While the natives were seen as a savage world by the Westerners, the Easterners embraced them with love and respect and the feeling was mutual. One of the Easterners that came later had a saying about the indigenous people - the more you know them, the more you love them. The Westerners were there to take, the Easterners were there to give. The East was there to bring Christ, the West was there to bring himself. There cannot be two Christs who contradict each other, one has to be true and the other is false. The True One came to each nation in part not to break the law or erase their identity, but to make it full. From those 10 Eastern men, very soon only one stayed alive, his name was Herman - Saint Herman of Alaska. When someone asked St. Herman why is he living alone with the bears on an island while he is supposed to be among the natives spreading the truth, St. Herman answered with 2 questions: "What is the Truth and What do you know about the Truth?" Same questions should everyone ask themselves today: What is the Truth and what do we know about it? Seek the Truth.
