Message to Humanity
Over Who Has the Rights to Do Ceremonies
In the Homelands of the Indigenous Nations in Yellowstone
The Dance of Oneness I Will Boycott
as an Eastern Shoshone Tribal Member
The Circles of Sevens Have Not Been Iniated
Because of Selling the Ceremonies in West Yellowstone, Montana
My heart feels the sadness of Mother Earth's Spirit that the
Circles of Sevens has not taken into consideration the protocols
of the Stewards of the Lands the Shoshone Nations and others.
Our nation’s ways have always allowed other nations to do
prayers and ceremonies in our homelands. An initiation process
was put into place to keep peace as long as it was in accordance
with how we initiate others to do ceremonies in our homelands
in our traditional ways, under Nature’s Law’s, called
traditions. I am sending a message to many nations of all colors
of humanity of how peace works in our lands.
We are Indigenous Nations of peace in the ways we were given
to follow in the Native American Ways in America’s to promote
peace. It seems this White Nation Group, The Global Eden Project;
the Circle of Sevens is still following the way of the mind that
their ancestors brought to our homelands 500 years ago. Using
the energy of manifest destiny that what they feel they should
do with out giving the stewards of nature the consideration we
ask for in respect for them to consider has failed. I have no
choice but to back away from this ceremony they asked me to help
support. Many things not of integrity have occurred.
If I do not take a stand as a Native American in our ways of
ceremonies, given freely, then I will be hit with the Indigenous
Tribal Nations attacking me and asking if I am working in a traditional
manner or not: the actions of this Circles of Sevens could get
many thinking I have joined them selling this ceremony. We ask
all nations to understand sponsoring or doing ceremonies many
would turn to greed it they would begin to charge for ceremonies.
This is why we have been instructed to never sell ceremonies with
other concerns also. This is not what I represent or want others
to think that I am selling ceremonies or have turned towards greed
and materialistic ways. This is not a bad thing that is happening
it is a good thing bringing about awareness. This is very important
to follow protocols that brings peace is the message. I have forgiven
these White Nations and ask them to follow our ways in our homelands
as Indigenous Nations.
I have been asked by my Elders to be a spokes person on their
behalf, by my Eastern Shoshone Elders from Fort Washakie, Wyoming.
I only took on this situation to promote healing the Volcanic
Energy in Yellowstone to do the best that I could to help protect
Mother Earth. I have been here working on this Yellowstone Volcano
Since 1999 and especially on May 8th, 2004 healing this volcanic
energy with many nations of all cultures. And now this group has
come to disrupt some of that work many of the past nations have
done healing this volcanic energy by not following our protocols
of peace.
Many have sat in peace doing our ceremonies together in one circle
under our way of life as Shoshone and other Indigenous Nations
as one people of all Nations. Many have gathered in peace in the
past, in similar ceremonies to bring awareness in the present
for peace in the future, such as it was done on May 8th, 2004
healing the Yellowstone Volcano in the Grand Teton Medicine Wheel
Ceremony.
I pray that all this that has happened, has happened to help many
cultures understand us as Native American's. That this is not
bad thing that has happened, but for helping many now understand
the protocols of peace in our ways teaching them how peace works
in our ceremonial ways of life we live. For we still hold the
covenant to be the stewards of our sacred sites within our homelands
as Shoshone and other Nations alike. Especially when it comes
to doing ceremonies: such as dances or seminars or conventions
in our homelands. We have to hear everything that anyone wants
to do in our lands and listen as stewards down to the last detail
to make sure nature does not get affected by the actions of those
that do not understand nature’s laws.
This represents a great wisdom to the Nations so we can teach
what we know how everything affects nature by just one small instance
of sound, thoughts, actions and how those vibrations changes nature
in positive or negative actions taking place. We were told to
think about the betterment of all living things in the circle
of life and not in selfishness or we would hurt nature and all
of life in that circle: For we know thoughts and emotions and
actions imprint and impacts Mother Nature under those vibrations
that are put out by humanities actions. This is where initiations
take place allowing other cultures into our homelands to do ceremonies
as we consider all that they have dreamed to happen in visions
or new ceremonies to bless all things in our homelands.
As we the stewards were given our ways to keep nature in harmony
as Shoshone and other Nations in the America’s. When we
do not work in a great manner honoring each other we affect all
that it is, Mother Earth's Creations; by working together with
natures laws in agreement with one another as Indigenous Nations
this is our teachings and our ways of life for healthy environments
to rebirth nature in beauty around us helps us stay in peace.
The lands of abundance will return when following our traditional
ways of life, the Garden of Eden’s return.
This situation within the Circles of Sevens and their Global Eden
Event Project will trickle out across this huge Nation of the
America’s about the truth that has taken place from my heart.
What has transpired and has really happened here in my peoples
homelands since they introduced themselves to us. Many thoughts
and actions in great hearts have not healed over what has taken
place because not following the Indigenous Nations ways of doing
things. Many Indigenous Nations are still upset across America
because of what has happened and that will affect all of creations
life force beings for what has happened in last few months.
Especially what has happened to a person that they invited to
our homeland to do ceremony with, White Eagle Medicine Woman (Suraj
Holzwarth). Rachel Holzwarth aka Suraj Holzwarth aka White Eagle
Medicine woman is looked at as new age exploiter of Native American
spirituality. You only have to do a search on www.Youtube.com
for what has happened with the, "Grandmother Drum" to
find out what this lady is all about. She claims Seneca (or sometimes
Seneca Metis or Tribal Metis) and depending on the crowd will
claim other nationalities/ethnicities such as Irish or Celtic
or Jewish. She cannot verify her claims and contacts with Seneca
communities or confirm she has been initiated or adopted into
a Indigenous Nation to do her ceremonies in their homelands or
our homelands. If she had done this there would be no problem
with her doing her dance and teachings, doing it freely.
Many have forgotten the lands have been stolen in name of greed
and materialism that still exists in many group’s actions
that are taking place everyday. In our Native American ways if
anyone has a dream to do something like her or the Circle of Sevens
they would come forward and explain their dream and what it instructed
them to do. If the Indigenous Nations group that lived where those
were to come and ask for permission to follow the dream we would
them approved/disapprove them to do this kind of work in there
homelands. Before they would be allowed a ceremony would take
place to have them be initiated to do that ceremony.
The tribal nation or group would now have a huge gathering and
present them to the people and honor them as this person or people
so everyone knew that they were Okayed to do this ceremony there.
Now if they left and went somewhere else they could now say they
had been adopted and okayed to do their work or ceremonial way
of life that had been approved of by that group of Indigenous
Elders. And this did not matter if they were enrolled in the tribe
or not. It only mattered that they were now adopted into a very
sacred circle of life: Healing everything for the betterment of
all things for peace and harmony. Healing Mother Earth and all
living things equally within that circle of life and to do that
ceremony for healing or what it represented.
When entering into another Indigenous Nations they would approach
that nation also and offer tobacco or that nations way there and
ask for permission to do their ceremony there. The would give
the purpose of the intentions of why they are there to do what
they are up to explaining every last detail. Explaining the cause
and affect the ceremony would have in the circle of life for the
betterment of all of creation. If the Indigenous group then saw
it as something that was beneficial to the circle of life for
the betterment of all things equally then they would approve it.
This now would promote peace and everyone would now hear from
the Traditional Leaders that this had been Okayed or initiated
to do so. And all things now would be alright for them to practice
their ceremony in the homelands of the Indigenous Nation that
they were in. This is part of the old ways for the Indigenous
Nations of the America’s and elsewhere around the world.
Many Native Americans are upset with the ways the Whiteman and
other cultures are still acting like they can do anything the
want in our lands we were given to take that trust responsibility
as stewardship by the Great Spirits covenants our ancestors agreed
to. Many Nations, including the Indigenous Nations are not honoring
what we agreed to in our original instructions for peace to endure
in our homelands in our ceremonial ways of life either. If we
did not follow these ways we were told nature would fall apart
and may individuals and groups would turn on each other. Many
things would happen and now we see it happening all around the
world as Nature now reacts because of our reactions such as: Earthquakes,
Tornadoes, Volcanoes, Floods, and on an on and on. The news shows
it everyday now and it will only becomes worse if the Nations
do not consider peace and stop the greed and materialistic ways
of life they are affecting Mother Earth with following the Indigenous
Nations teaching of Nature.
I have done all I could by asking and asking this Global Eden
Project, the Circles of Sevens to consider what I have spoken
on behalf of to allow us to work in oneness with our ways as an
Indigenous Nation ways of peace. To no avail has this worked out
to get this ceremony worked out and to approve of the initiation
process for this ceremony to take place. I have tried my best
to using our ways as an Indigenous Nations Peacemaker and member
of the Eastern Shoshone Nation’s: Following to the best
of my knowledge and ability in my homelands protocols for the
betterment of all of creations life forces. I feel they the Circles
of Sevens have chosen the road of selfishness in greed and materialism
in what they feel they want and that is the bottom line of the
disagreement, It is there way period and I have been pushed into
a corner and have not had not much of a say so for them considering
what I have presented to them on the behalf of my Shoshone Peoples
Nations ways of life I consider to be truth. Speaking my Heart.
I have done my best to get them to consider what this meant for
many months, enduring the agony and pain in emotions that I endured
working with them to get them to consider our ways. They have
chosen not to follow our ways of our Shoshone Nations that are
similar to the other Native American Tribes in America and the
America's as a whole, as one; And they call this a gathering The
Dance Oneness? There for I ask all Indigenous Nations and others
not to participate in this ceremony because of what has happened
and is taking place at this moment: For they are still there and
plan to do what they want without our initiating for them to do
this Dance of Oneness.
For it is not of oneness that they are representing all things
in the circle of life, because of greed, about money and egos.
Not really understanding how nature laws and certain things have
to be done before the can do the ceremony. The lands need healed
and brought into a higher vibration to heal that area and become
abundant once again before the ceremony starts: Asking permission
from Natures Spirits and other spiritual beings of light.
Please join us in a new location within the Grand Tetons on June
18th to June 21st, 2008 as we now prepare to move to a new site
to bless the Yellowstone Volcanic Energy from that location. The
area we will be negotiating with will be in the Bridger Teton
National Forest in view of the Grand Teton Peaks, near Jackson
Hole, Wyoming. We are now on the move to find that location; Healing
the Earth, Wind, Fire and Water together as one.
I thank each and everyone for their patience and consideration
of our protocols for peaceful intentions within the ceremonies
and for the consideration our ways as Native American Tribes in
America. We are still working with many who understand our ways
and will join us in our ceremonial ways of life. Please feel free
to join us in this June Solstice Celebration for this Earth Healing
Ceremony to Heal Mother Earth and the Super Yellowstone Volcanic
Vibrations, including the Earth, Wind, Fire and Water healing
ceremonies.
Ahwee hooo...Many thank you's and many blessings to the Circles
and Sevens, may the walk the road to enlightenment: Including
the other Nations also, may we all walk in peace together in harmony
as one following the teaching of peace in our homelands as Indigenous
Nations. So May it BE, Blessings be for peace, love and harmony
to follow.
