Wow! I have been in one only one time many years ago. But it was so beautiful and so well thought out, that I still remember it! ❤ The one I saw was down a couple of steps, maybe around 3 feet in the ground.
As I listened to this man and then reading your comment, I thought about what goes into making a hogan and what goes into a modern house. You have ALL 4 ELEMENTS in a Hogan- Earth, fire, wind and water. All things needed to sustain life and are in harmony with each other. What goes into a modern house? Unnatural things like drywall, paint, fiberglass, metal... All things that can cause toxicity to the human body... 🙁 I'm really rethinking modern housing and the good it does us...
... and just a comment to add. Mr. Brown, your memory and your strong voice are admirable. You have clear enunciation and don't rush your speech. You are a fine orator and it is a pleasure to listen to you.
now we understand were the lie church comes from and all BS dome chirches all out of indiens historie!!! greatfull to see all story now is out to see the truth and the lie
Thank you Grandfather Wally for giving us this experience of this incredibly beautiful hogan that is inspired by our bird friends and Mother Earth. I love the smooth juniper tree trunks and it makes sense that the top is like a nest. I wish the modern culture would learn to find ideas from nature like this. I have always been attracted to Dine art, baskets, weaving, clothing and jewelry because you really feel the prayerful intentions that is put into everything. It is important that we remember all these ways.
THANK YOU! Very interesting information and history. The Juniper poles used in the hogan are beautiful, and SO much Love (and so much work) obviously go into these buildings. Your drawing helped me understand the profound symbology of this. The old still pictures are priceless and a good help. Just shaking my head... And thank you, Shane. SO beautiful. 🥲
This is similar to the weaver women in Africa. The inside and construction are similar. Different types of materials. Thank you for your service. Blessed be everyone 🙏 ✨
Knowledge is not words or names!! Knowledge has no language!!! You are knowledge by your intuition!! Be present here and now knowing.. You are the cause of everything!
Grandfather Wally, Once again, I thank you for your lessons on houses. They make me wonder about the houses of my Ngobe friends in Panama. I will have questions the next time I see them.
Very nice! I wondered about this after seeing your video about the male hogan last week. I am to the East in New Mexico, still have lots to learn from your channel, a good teacher is beneficial to understanding. Ahéhee'.
So very interesting. The hogon is so recognizable in my region as a pit dwelling. A traditional dwelling dug out and logs placed over head forming both a dome and roof as well as the way in and out and the smoke hole. Our winters can get mighty cold -40° ! These dwellings such that the people were warm all winter. Very interesting to me how hundreds of miles apart people use the same techniques for similar reasons! Thank you for sharing your knowledge......those of us new to their journey appreciate the insight!
Very good video. As always, it's both educational and entertaining. You always put a lot of care into the storytelling, you do a good job of teaching. Thank you very much.
What a beautiful sanctuary space for living, that is also in harmonious relation with Earth. More and more, I feel that spaces like this feel close to my heart and how I want to live, close to the Earth’s heart too. I absolutely love the corn pollen teaching. There is much beauty and life in this video. Thank you Grandfather Wally and to all for sharing this wisdom and teachings.
🤝 thanks for sharing I'm a carpenter and love to see the difference in building techniques looks very strong and safe, not much for privacy did they hang animal pelts and separate areas or was it left wide open I wonder?
Everything about a hogan tells us that it's the most ideal dwelling for life to flourish. All 4 elements are needed to make a hogan- Earth, Wind, Fire and Water. Modern homes have unnatural parts to them- Drywall, paint that has chemicals in it, fiberglass, and metal. I want looking for this type of enlightenment today, but it found its way to me and has altered my modern way of thinking. I honestly could live in a hogan and feel at complete peace.
I live in Los Angeles, I want to travel down to the Navajo Nation, and listen to this guy! It's the staff in his hand! And make some an instant wise man!
Thank you for teaching about this beautiful structure, the care and meaning behind it and the spiritual aspects and reverence you have for everything we’ve been given and to the Holy People. Too many people have lost their way in the modern, fast moving and changing world. I’d prefer to still use knowledge and tradition a spiritual beliefs, to build my life and that of my family around. May you always be blessed .❤️
so glad someone is documenting all this, younger generations are forgetting the history. same goes with non natives, younger generations do not know factual history. we should all know the good and bad of the past, it helps us to not make the mistakes of the past.
A interesting history of the hogan. You've spoken about the Anasazi in past episodes, it would be interesting to learn about Diné relationships with other groups in the southwest, such as the Yavapai, for example as they were regarded (if I'm correct) as a more war-like people. With whom did the Diné have good or otherwise relationships with and what were their methods of diplomacy? Thank you, Wally.
Did every family know how to build the hogan, or were there special builders in the tribe? How did the Dineh keep snakes, and other creatures out of the structure if there was a hole in the ceiling? I still don't understand what would be the advantages of living in a female versus male hogan?
Thank you for sharing ❤ A Mushkegowuk Cree, l can understand the word Hogan you talked about when you provided the meaning. In Cree, we also say, wawnihogan , underground dwelling. It’s amazing our close connections with your language to ours. This is the 2nd word l come across. We are one people, aho Blueskywoman Northern Canada
I feel sad for the modern Dine living on reservations in modern structures such as mobile homes...not sure how they live these days...exactly...and wonder if they're are finding purpose and integrating the old ways. Mr Wally, can you explain how they are living and evolving and preserving ways? Thankyou!
Building a modern home or living in a manufactured home is not the same to staying in an old Hogan with a warm fire. That is home.❤️🙏
Oh that is beautiful. Thanks for sharing

I'm sure it's not the same. I envy your beautiful experience! ❤ 😊
Wish I could move to a reservation and live in one. Beautiful and natural. 🥰
The feeling of being in the Hogan, is like being in the cozy arms of mother nature! soooo cozy! Thank you for this video, Sir.
Whatcha gonna do when Hulkimania and these 24 inch pythons run wild on you?! 😂 (hulk hogan) sorry just being corny
@@benvinar2876 you don't have to be sorry to others for you being corny,... kinda funny,...
@@markgibsons_SWpottery thanks 😂. Just didnt want to offend. U know how people r these days
🤦♂️

Patronising much?
I agree.
Nothing but the truth. Get rid of paranoia.
Thank you uncle for teaching me about my people.
Thanks for sharing Mr. Brown and Shane, I really appreciate you taking the time to do this for us. 🧡

YESSS
The construction of the female Hogan is beautiful.
Thanks for sharing what you know about your culture. I find it very fascinating.
Great blessing to listen to your knowledge 🙏🐺
The animals and birds and bugs are amazing teachers. Thank you for sharing the knowledge you have with all of us :)
Incredibly interesting. Thank you grandfather Wally. Many blessings to you.

Thank you for your teaching always a blessing.
Thank you. I don’t know my true names. I suppose there are many stolen children who do not. I learn as much as I can as my inner spirit directs me.
And you are welcome and accepted among us.
Knowledge is not words or names!!
Knowledge has no language!!!
You are knowledge by your intuition!!
Be present here and now knowing..
You are the cause of everything!
The number 8 symbolizes eternity. An 8 pointed star with a circle in the middle symbolizes The Creater's authority.
Yes lots of stolen bloodlines. Its sad seeing them turn against their roots. But the blood revival will be completed, it is foretold!
Stolen, huh.
Thank you Grandfather.
It was a nice touch to include Grandmother Brown's walking stick. Blessings to you.
Fascinating and so intricate of construction.
Grandfather Wally,
Once again, I thank you for your lessons on houses. They make me wonder about the houses of my Ngobe friends in Panama. I will have questions the next time I see them.

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, every little bit makes me a lil less ignorant!
Always stay in prayer. I like that.

Wonderfull use of Natural resourses , strong and flexible , much better than Bricks and mortar .🙂
Thank you!🥰

Clockwise to go with the flow. Counterclockwise to do something, create via resistance.

Mr Wally, can you explain how they are living and evolving and preserving ways? Thankyou!
I really like this one.
I'd love to live here long enough to experience nature like never before and truly cleanse and ascend.
Beautiful Ahe'hye'e
🙏🏼 axheehe 🙏🏼
Thank-You Elder, I ask? Does the Yellow Corn pollen path always face the same way from the Hogan? North South East or West? just curious??
Thank-You.
