On the 25th of December 2012, I sat at our turn off to Havasupai, getting ready to catch a ride home. In the distance, I saw something white but there was no snow at all. Under a juniper tree about a hundred yards from where I was sitting, turned to see if there were any cars coming. Then I glanced back, then I saw that it was a white elk, walking towards the north. Could have not been any animal rather than it, was very large. At that distance my memory quickly abrupted to a story that my grandparents told of during winter, bed time story. Just a child when these songs and stories were told to me.
To the north are the sacred arrows. When at times the earth is in distress or suffering because of demonic attrillitations or humans who by count become selfish and have fallen from grace to their way of life on this earth, the glory to respect the sacred and holiness crumbles. The two twin warriors and its leader do visit but not all man or any humans are allowed to see them. Only to those who are holy and chosen to interpret its need. When the world and it's breadth was at play to choose which will be the right world for the first humans to live, deities were gambling to their best of magic. The highest order of the deities did gamble all that he had to build a better world, for all his hunting gear, his attitude, his consciousness, his structure of holiness, he gambled away.
Then when he only had one arrow, the very last arrow, "Now, before I gave away these powers to a world that will not be ours, I will sing a song, a powerful sacred song to win back this world for all Indian people in the Indian world."
Before he threw the sticks and sacred rocks to the ground, he put a song in the arrow and he won back all that he lost.
This is a very special message and a song from the Havasupai Nation, where pure water flows from all first nations heart, the mother earth she will give you a triumphant victory, you are all the great grand children of Sitting Bull and Bigfoot great sacred love and earth brother respect be sent to all of you, let peace be accepted in your hearts and holy happiness will come to you, love your people and love your land, stand and centralize.

A special thank you to Matthew and
the walkers from Censored News!

Went to the land today on ski-doo to see how our walkers are doing.
They're doing very well and highly pumped up by the news of support
coming from the four directions of Earth. They say the harshest of
winter conditions will not stop them! On their second day on the land
they walked under a relentless -38 temperature. Simply incredible!
They're determined to succeed irregardless of the challenges they could
face each day!
Our young walkers do not want us to worry about
them. "We are true Warriors!" - they say. The first five days have taught
them a lot and from that they know they will survive and successfully
carry the message of unity, harmony and balance to Ottawa for all of us!
Their message to all, is this: This Sacred Journey is ultimately about
HUMAN SURVIVAL. As such, it is the responsibility of every human being
to reflect upon what this means for each one of us, our families, our
communities, our nation and ultimately the whole of humanity. Unity of
peoples is what it will take to restore societal balance and harmony;
thus, the main purpose of their Journey. They want to see peoples coming
together and start planning and building a better future for
generations to come. They also say that this Journey will help them in
their own personal development. They know this Journey will condition
them to be able to deal current life challenges that each one faces.
Our walkers express sincere gratitude for the support of all, your prayers and good thoughts.
On my way back, I broke into tears a few times just thinking about them -- these young warriors -- their determination and the meaning of what
they have chosen to do for humanity, the sacrifices they're making. And I
thought about what this sacred Journey means to me, my family, my
community and my nation.
I remembered what our Elders often
tell us: Each one of us human beings has a gift and a sacred duty that
we're born with. It always had to do with influencing universal harmony
and balance. So many of us don't make the effort to find out what our
purpose in life is. As a result, our lives are often in shambles. In the
days of our Ancestors, the role of Elders was to give guidance to
parents and show them to recognize the child's gift and the role he or
she will play as an adult for the tribe's survival and well being. The
Elders teachings were heeded with no question and, in our society, every
individual was considered equal and as important to each and every
member of the tribe.
As I drove on the land today, I reflected
upon what our Elders have been saying in the past, and more strongly,
today; The Eeyouch or Aboriginal peoples of this continent were given a
sacred duty by the Great Creator as caretakers of Mother Earth. We must
unite and reclaim and continue to carry out this sacred duty, for
without this happening, the Earth will die ... and along with her all
her children - us!
Doesn't it make sense then why these seven young men have chosen to embark upon this Sacred Journey, to wake up humanity?
So my good friends, what does the Journey of Nishiyuu mean to you?
"In the North will rise a People, they will bear the sign of the goose......."
