    Beautiful. I love listening to the elders. More people should listen to what they have to say. They are a wealth of knowledge and good old fashioned common sense.

    I believe in the spiritual way of life. Blessings. Thank you for sharing via UA-cam, further reach than radio. Seeing you, hearing you speak truth and learning from you is a gift. Find the spiritual center and keep learning from our elders, the way of the world is trying to move us from our understanding of spiritual connections with everything. We are all connected. Don't forget the power is inside you.

      @@sheliarossell3162 ;many reasons. Although this could be a loaded question; I'll answer since you asked.
      First; from my perspective; he knows the history and traditions of his culture, I like his philosophy of the RED ROAD and what Mitakuya oya' sin means. If I claimed to believe in any words; it would be that one phrase. We are all connected to all things; living or not; period and should remember tgat; BOOM.
      When I learn something or am corrected and say; BOOM; that means I'm in agreement if I say BOOM on everything you say or represent; then; you are on my short good guy list and the same with Women.
      I have my short list of notable Women as well and some are indigenous to this land as well.
      Another reason I relate to David Swallow; We are the same age and have; pretty much the same accounting of the history of our time.
      There is honor in being committed to your thoughts and beliefs and being consistant and when it's inclusive and constructive; 👍.
      That's a short list of favorable attributes I find in David Swallow as well as a few others and I'll mention their names because my short list of respectable men include Russell Means, John Trudell, Phillip Deere, Dennis Banks and a few others; mostly those associated with AIM and that time period.

My journey as a child seeing all connections to adult of dreamer, Eagle, and creator is my journey no one person took me on it was my journey of our creator. I read about a tenure warrior I've always had a connection to buffalo with all things alive in the earth it's a powerful place to walk. What are we when we walk in this place as Eagle to see? Thank you for your responce. ARE the Lakota seperate tribe of time yet all is connected now? Why is the buffalo a sign to our people at this time. What is the white buffalo meaning today. Yes when one see they know the respectable ones'. I heard this the other day go back to where your journey began.

    Hello David Swallow. I am 1/4 Choctaw. I don't know if you can help me, but I'm sending this message to you because I need help. my daughter is experiencing bad visions and voices. I took her to a white man's mental health facility, and they made her worse. It's been 6 months since she has been back home. She is home now, and she has gotten a little bit better, but not all the way. Is there anything that I can do to help her. Do you know of anything to help her ?

      She has an evil spirit she got from her mother she has hatred and resentment towards you for not protecting her from her mother and mom imposing her will on her she has to forgive you and her mother for traumatizing her at an early age then and only then the Great spirit will forgive her and take the evil spirit away this happens to everyone every where in the world but we can break the curse by forgiving our trespassers

    • @hetouchestheclouds7236
      @hetouchestheclouds7236 2 роки тому +1

      By traumatizing i mean anything that mom or you did to let resentment in to her as a child not beating or any other abuse. You weren't even aware you were doing it but that's how it goes for everyone we couldn't help ourselves because of our self we know nothing or can do nothing without the great spirit so tell her to forgive and she can have peace. It blows this peace treaty talk outta the water A Ho washtai

    Social security 😆 crying shame , I am a Gypsy man, a Romany Gypsy man , we were free once too , Native Americans are the people we can resonate with so well , many of us live on a reservation called a licensed Gypsy traveller site , it's often a little concrete yard with a wall round it , out of site from the rest of society , we didn't want to give up the road and open spaces we were forced , we are the only people in England who's housing is racially segregated . Beleive in your freedom brothers and sisters we must reclaim it .

Materialistic need will chain the heart to societal wealth at the cost of balanced wellbeing the minds eye will not be free if metals are made to disrupt the alignment of cosmic balance naturally gifted through hee!
