The Spiritual Fire Still Burns


"The spiritual heritage of Native American people is here, it has not been extinguished. I believe the spiritual fire still burns and is beckoning for America, indeed the world, to come closer, to listen, to learn, and to share in its warmth and comfort. I, as a spiritual  Indian man, am convinced that it is time to reach out to my white brothers and sisters and to share with whomever wishes to partake of what we, the indigenous people of this land still have. It is time that the buckskin curtain be drawn back. It is time, I know it." - Eddie Benton-Banai, Ojibway, from Wisdomkeepers by Steve Wall & Harvey Arden
