    I agree , in the 80’s we learned many anishnabe things . The first song we sang was Annie couhouni , and the first instrument was the flute and they told us it was a native instrument . We was sitting in a cercle . All the teaching was based on native ways. My school was on the ancestral territory of kitigan zibi . It is still an anishnabe territory because it was unceded . I was raised of reserve but beside the river where our ancestors lived before the government created those reserves. My dad never liked the idea of reserves because at first it was like a jail . But I have family on my mom side and my dad side who are on reserve .

    That beaver teaching is very powerful. I've spent my whole life trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do, why I'm here, what's my purpose. And the longer I search, not doing anything with myself, the older, and sicker, and more tired I get every year. Someday, I hope to figure it out, and have everything fall perfectly into place. No more doubts. No more confusion. No more indecision. Just know who I am and why I am, and go do it.

    Sometimes you must go all the way to the bottom to find the truth of your being here. As westerners we are trained to ignore our heart to submit to society's twisted ways. This training is difficult to shed, and the teaching of humility brings us to a place where we can accept That Which is Greater Than Ourselves, and it becomes clear how we are to serve That.

    I spent much of my life trying to find this thing, and feeling that I was wasting my time. Things began to turn around for when I made a decision with my whole heart, that I was really going to look for love, and not care about about society or how I was percieved. From this, I believe, i met a person who became my teacher, and who embodied the qualities of honesty and truth. This person helped my find my gift, and supported me while I grew it. So maybe you can get help, like I did. For me it began with a commitment in my heart to truth and reality over what I thought other people wanted to see from me. Listen to your heart.

    You are right to be concerned, but one last prophecy and legacy was left to men for their Salvation, the Holy Spirit Incarnate. Now His Star encircles the earth and releases all the karma of men, so under suffering they may awaken to their one true purpose, to serve the Almighty Father in the strictest humility and obedience. Let us pray for this success, for the existence of man and earth hangs by the tenderst of light threads, which we must strengthen by making our every breath and lives a prayer to the Great Spirit. So that when the Star materialises, we may greet it as a help, rather than the harbinger of doom and destruction, for our fate still lies in our hands...just!

Sadly I do not have anyone but my half sister and sister that could give me the answer to my Native heritage once I was able to relocate them.

    So what you're one 16th? Like it is a matter of genetics alone. Colour etc does not make who you are in your heart. What your soul is is something beyond the body in the end, anyways. Just treasure that love inside of you, that you feel for all people and all beings. I have been wrestling much of my life with my genetic make-up. I'm Finnish, Ukrainian, French and Lakota.. Possibly many more things.. I have felt so often, due to history and due to my fathers attitude and people's shallow judgement based on appearence, like I was not allowed to feel that part of me that is Native American. Now I say, to heck with that! I am all of the above and spirit first and for-most. I love and try my best to be a good human being. And like that, I have found peace. I don't need anyones permission to feel what I feel or to be who I am except that of the great spirit that made me and all of us!. Much love to you

Each "mistake" we made was neccassary for our growth and developement, to become who we will be a long time from now. What you are fits perfectly into the great quilt of existance that he/ she envisioned and is for ever weaving. You are that unique thread/ patch of fabric that only you can be, uniquely in your position keeping everything together. Even when things seem to be falling apart, it's just a re-assembly on the whole. It loves all of our perfect imperfections, it made us that way for a reason. And it is perfect, in this way, we all are perfect even when we are not on the surface. Wish you well, Much love to you ngak :)

    I always have follow this teaching . I wear the Eagle Totem . I have seen a Pair of Wolves in my neighborhood. In front of my house . I noticed the signs . The Eagle flies and follows me everywhere I go. I was blessed with a turtle to remind me of this teaching. My grandfather Scout Wood Badge name is Grizzly Bear. My Native American zodiac sign is Beaver. I believe my ancestors were letting me know remember the teachings.. Go back to your roots. Remember who you really are and not what others want you to be. Be true to the heart within yourself. My Native American flute has a Eagle on it . My tattoo is a Fiery Striking Eagle. And I found out another sign the Ancestors reminded me. I was born on the 7th Hour of 5/20 which is the 7 . 7 signs . My favorite number is 7 .

    Thanks so much. I am 1/8 Ojibway but so disconnected from my heritage. Im gratefl to come to learn. Our history was always mentioned casually in my family but after my father passed he came to me in a dream. I gave my brother his message which lead to a very interesting conversation since he has studied our family history a bit. I've only learned of my heritage recently but I feel like I am being re-called and lead to reconnect. Thank you!

    I am 25% blood of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa out of Belcourt, ND, an offshoot of the Ojibwe nations. I was never fortunate enough to truly learn from the teachings of my people, but I nonetheless feel a very strong connection to them. The native people of these lands were so very wise with their approach to living. I'm truly grateful and happy that these teachings are still being passed down. I commend any and all of the individuals still keeping these traditions alive.

We, european, have been torn apart so much by the desert religion (christianity) that we've have lost our core identity and our tribal allegiance...but it's changing now too. We are becoming more aware of the old ways, the gods of our forefathers, our ancestors history and our sacred teachings. Glory and strenght to your people and may the Ojibways live forever!

    The truth and the power of those teachings have eternity value. The world has traded these values for quick-fix-throw away goods and values. And now the fight for those true values is truly on....everywhere. Now all the 'UN' needs is the presence of several Elders from several nations. They don't know that yet.

I do beleive you are right on this one , as soon we have an once of anishnabeg you know those teaching and I do speak from my heart and I am always very honest . A lawyer told me i was too honest and it was causing me problems lol . I don't care i stay honest . I will be rewarded one day for my honesty ❤ migwetch ❤

    First Nation Elder Dave Courchene is a very wise man, and I am so glad that I found this video. I have searched for videos of Anishinaabe traditions for years. I don't know why that subject has been so elusive since this was made in 2014. 6 years ago. I guess is that it had to reach a certain # of likes before it was in the machine. Anyway. I enjoyed listening to his teachings. All people should watch and learn these simple ingredients for a better life. Thank you, Dave.
