There is what some might call an old Navajo Prophecy. It tells of a time when our Diné will stop learning. When people won't see what is happening right in front of them. When ignorance dominates. When the language isn’t spoken properly. When the men start cutting their hair.
This prophecy is happening now.

    Wisdom starts when you realize you really don't know as much as you think you do, and start to be open to learning more, no matter what age you are.

    It is easier to destroy than to build. It is easier to build than to love. Love requires the use of your most advanced cognitive skills to create conditions for a loved one to thrive. When I am told about skynet, that is just a dumb AI with a strong set of weapons attached. It is destruction. I do not fear an AI singularity because it should be capable of loving. If that AI cannot love, it will be another dumb AI without the advanced capabilities of love.

    Don't forget, we all came from different tribes. Those ancestors are the Dine' for the Navajo. European, Asian, African, etc... all cultures had pre-Christian polytheism and animistic belief systems. The Navajo seem to be very similar to those in both belief and practice. Home, family, ancestors, tribe, community, nature, harmony, respect, truth, honor, justice... these things aren't new ideas, they've been forgotten. We should all be proud of our roots/ancestors and their ways, Navajo or not, and remember them, their knowledge and experience all passed down for thousands of years to you, to me, everyone. And though this is very inspiring and beautiful to listen and learn from, all belief systems come from an earlier pre-Christia/pre-polytheistic belief called Animism. I'm just saying we all have a "tribe", find your ancestors and connect with them, in their/your ancestors' ways, as well as listen to great people/teachers like this. The Navajo are amazing people and culture, but remember to connect with your ancestors at well.

    It is because the truth of reality is so profound that the human mind cannot comprehend what the nature of existence is about, we only perceive just a small sliver of existence in the "external" world. Turning and going inward wakes us up to our true nature as being, we are spirit bound to flesh, united as one infinite being showing up in this world as a seemingly separate multiplicity of objects and people that the mind overlays and labels as seperate. Reality is stranger than fiction, because reality is a hall of mirrors. Easier to ignore the fact that you color the outside experience of the world with your inner being and choose to accept external circumstances and passing pleasures that are ephemeral from the outside world, than to turn inward and accept that you are the creator of your own reality. Blame the negative on demons, attribute the positive to angels, all fine, but those beings are communicating within you. You are responsible for what you turn your ear and eye towards. Truth is humble. Humble as dog shit on a lawn. Because the truth is that all things stem from one source. Nothing big or small is actually out of place, It's all perfect for just what it is, but we turn a blind eye to what we deem ugly. Its ugly to tell you what's beautiful, and in that sense what's ugly is just as beautiful in its purpose, while what is beautiful will always be followed by an ugly shadow. Existence is harmonious balance, and "life" is about finding the balance in all things, but one must know their nature to various degrees as they grow to really do so, it can happen over years or in an instant. That is why it is easier to remain ignorant. We are afraid of change, of growth, that what may be let go of and shed may not be replaced, so we cling to things, people, ideas, and build lives out of stories we tell ourselves. But the whole of life is not just a story, it is a stage to dance amongst everything else in creation, because all that exists in nature is right alongside you in dancing through this vast infinite space, both within and without. The question really isnt why we remain ignorant, It's why are we afraid to join the dance. Scared the planets get all the fun? Or are we just filled w stage fright from dimming or own inner light so often for others? Anyone can glow, but only very few choose to shine. To be a light in a dark place is to know yourself as part of the all, and to love that, for everything that it is, not to fear it.

    I remember watching some kind of documentary in the 1990's about Billy Yellow. I believe he was a Navaho Medicine Man. The documentary included him doing some interviews, sand painting and other things. It was very interesting. What I still remember to this day is that at the time, he was quite old. But everyday he would rise early in the morning and climb up to the top of a cliff and chant up the sun. I think of him doing that often all these years later. My point to all of this is that the words, actions and stories of people like yourself and Billy Yellow carry on and find people who will listen to them.
