Learning from eachother is basically the human super power. One must use it carefully and responsibly, of course, but denying it is to deny what it means to be human. Not always easy to navigate, of course, but that's also why elders and history are so important.

Yes! It is about true balance. Unwilling creates unwanted imbalances on many levels. We are all linked whether we like it or not. I have Cherokee and Nordic German Viking blood my kids grandmother was native Blackfoot Sioux. Skin color is only skin deep… we are all human and amazing to be held with our internal souls. Cultures are very diverse but in reality are truly melting together with many commonalities as humans evolve and realize who we really are. I see you.. your soul is your truth.

The mere introduction of horses on the continent quickly caused cultural adaptions. Proto horses DID exist on the American continents in ancient times but they vent extinct alongside the megafauna and was never domesticated. In Asia, northen Africa and Europe horses wasn't rideable at first causing the the need to invent the chariot until they where breeded to size and strengh to be ridable.

My great grandma. Was the only daughter of a chief. Escaped trail of tears while passing through alma Arkansas. with help from my great grandfather[military] and others. brought to Texas. Given baptism name of Alma. In Texas. And the rest is history. I’ve heard many of these stories and a lot of this wisdom from my grandfather growing up. He always called me something very similar to “tantu wishu” [spelling I have no idea, that’s how it sounded] as my nickname. If you know what that means. I’d love to know? He just recently passed on. Man I miss my wise old Indian Grandpa. A lot.

It’s nice to hear the proper pronunciations of our Diné words

Culture should always be shared ... for danger of being lost ... Language , ceremonies , stories ... all are related to one another and cannot be undone . Thank you, you the elder , and you , the grandson , for filming and sharing these wisdoms ! SUCH great teachings of how the (European) world once was . I'm impressed by how much (Deneh) knowledge has been preserved despite all that happened ! I hope to see more to learn .

Each lesson is so appreciated.....Grandfather Wally. I feel honored to hear your words and learn what you have to teach us. It is a miracle that Native culture's have survived and are rising again because the Traditional Ways are Time tested while our modern lifestyles and disregard for the land have caused many problems of isolation, pollution and plastic.

I am very grateful to you, Grandpa Wally. You have helped me through difficult times and I highly appreciate you. I pray that you receive more blessings and all the support that you may ever need. I love and respect you. Thank you.

I have to speak after reading some comments. 1) teachings have not ever been shared as grandfather Wally is publicly. 2) Anything anyone is interested in making of sacred teachings would be recommended to ask with prayer from the heart and presented to an elder or grandfather Wally. EACH PIECE has powerful meaning and usually is created after being taught. This is a very personal walk spiritually. If you do not understand or know how to honor the medicine, what will you do with each sacred piece involved. I mean no disrespect to anyone! I encourage each person to pray and ask first. If you want to walk the path, all your personal medicines will come when it is time. Some may disagree with my comment. I believe Grandfather Wally is sharing for a much larger reason which has not been revealed to me yet. As he has spoken earlier: this is a very disciplined walk every day., it is also filled with some greatest joy you could ever experience. You learn who you are and your relationship with creator first. Blessings to all

Denise- some elders believe that time is of the essence and that's why they're opening up more and sharing these things more publicly. In a world filled with much duplicity and denial people are searching for the truth... if these things are strong and true I don't think shedding some light on them should end up being a problem. As you are probably aware the medicine sort of has a way of protecting itself as the weak and unworthy are often pushed out through metaphysical means... a ho mitakuye oyasin...pilamaya

@@redbear4027 I know we are all humans subjected to error. What I was talking about was their teachings. Most " White teachings" lack the respect towards everything that was created. It is mentioned but there arent ceremonies that are for those purposes/ or they are very sporadic and only în times of need.We are not taught to walk în unity with rhe whole nature wherever we may go, not în the way that it was taught în the tribes. Before Roman empires wars and a few others and before Christianity, many "whites" still had a real closenes and appreciation to nature. But after that, well..we all know what happened. We can see what happens when you are taught that only humans have spirit and everything around you is just for you to use however you please. Yes, I know tribes în America had their wars and those în South America, some of them did real baad stuff. But în North America they had that respect for nature, they took what they needed and helped everything they could. Anywho, its a tragedy what has happened and I am glad it will never happen again because în the forth world there will be no suffering allowed. Or better said there will be no evil.

@Miyaiun I need to sing and dance more. You are speaking of the past, and you have utopian ideas. Do you know why Arawak had to leave South America? They had to completely outstripped their resources, and the population had swelled so much that they sent their children in Dugout canoes to find new land. Lucky for the children, they found Puerto Rico Jamaica Cuba Etc... I am not a utopian. I am a pragmatist. In a world that is mostly lost, I find it very difficult to connect with many human beings no matter what tribe they come from... I'll come up like this... but first, I just wanted to extend some love and hugs and good energy towards you... I listen to your thoughts, and I see your points as thoughtful and worthy.

Woven Fabric is highly regarded in my family. I've heard many stories about women singing while they weave. The song associated the number of knots in the pattern.

Thank you for your good words. About 40+ years back, I went to several Pueblo feast days, & I especially remember Santo Domingo Pueblo - I don’t recall it’s proper name. I remember the women and young girl ‘s dress - it was summer and I believe most were woven cotton. I hope they had wool dresses for the winter feast days. It was strange, but I felt very emotionally connected to New Mexico and the Native and Hispanic cultures of that place. I still do, but maybe that’s just a connection to the wholeness of creation, which I think was made perfectly. Thank you for reminding me of that great time.

Hello Sir, You remind me of my grandfather. He was not Navajo, although our family has blood lines from the Patawomeck tribe of Virginia. Sadly the tribe was almost wiped out entirely, yet the blood remains. I wish I could hear the tales and wisdom from my ancestors, yet I feel as though they speak through you. May the creator bless you and yours.

Thank you so much….I made a tiny medicine bottle and gave it to my son when he went to Australia to hopefully keep him safe, attached to a little compass for the cardinal directions, and a cross to hedge his bets. Lol. It has (if I remember rightly) earth, air (it is in a bottle), blessed salt water, and ash (earth air fire water), a tiny piece of eagle feather. A tiny piece of moss from Stonehenge at sunrise solstice. If there is more, I’ve forgotten what it is. He thinks I’m crazy, but I’m used to that. :-)

My grandmother, my dad's mom, was full blooded Chippewa from Michigan. She was born on an Indian reservation in the early 1900s. Her parents died when she was 9 years old. She was responsible for her brothers and sisters, I don't know what happened to all of them. Somehow, she moved to Massachusetts, and not much was talked about her life. My mother contacted the department of Indian Affairs Washington for more information about her, for my dad. They gave her Michigan indian affairs, and they said all the records were burnt up, and there was no records. My grandmother died when I was little, and my dad never really got over it. She was a private person and my dad was respectful of his mom, and didn't pry into her life. She got a kidney infection and it killed her. All she needed was penicillin. The doctor just medicated her for pain, and she kept working. Imagine, she only needed penicillin and she would have been healed. She was only 55 years old, in the early 60s.
