Sharing Today's Sunrise Medicine #1


Civilized people depend too much on man-made printed pages. I turn to the Great Spirit's book which is the whole of his creation. - Tatanga Mani, 1871-1967

Manitou

THE WORLD of the Native American, spiritual and otherwise, is not to be understood by assuming that it can be described easily in the English language, and in religious terms. What we now think of spirituality was not a religion in the commonly accepted definition of the word. It was their way of life, which is to say that it permeated their lives to such an extent as to be inseparable from everyday living....Manitou was not a supreme being, but rather a way of referring to the cosmic, mysterious power existing everywhere in nature. - Eunice Baumann-Nelson, Ph.D., Penobscot

Being a believer in Jesus Christ, of German/Scot heritage & a Sovereign member of the Seneca Nation, I embrace beliefs
that are hybrid based in Nature & Christianity. - SenecaWolf
