RE: 🔥 Steemit Vision Quest - Invitation To Co-Create A New Community Challenge
I just wanted to add that I've watched with dismay (while I was studying these topics) how western academics and anthropologists have plundered yours and other cultures. They have destroyed the ancient wisdom. I believe that in some cases this was the aim. It's just my belief but cultures like NdN hold (and to an extent still hold) some of the secrets to spiritual growth. So yes, it's very important to keep those and pass them down mouth to ear. You are very fortunate to have this heritage and I find it heartening that people are starting to understand. If I'd been in the States, I would have been at Standing Rock :)
This is correct. I mention that in a blog post I did on Mesa Verde about a three weeks ago. We all have a beautiful lineage, where are your roots? I do feel fortunate and not as sad anymore about what happened to my people. We are strong and there has been meaning and sacrifice by many. I’m not an activist nor raised on a Rez.
I'm not sure about my roots. One reason for that is the destruction of many of Europe's indigenous cultures. I know very little about specifics, though - I'm pretty ignorant on the microcosm......I generally look at the overview.
I was able to trace back 1/4 of my ancestry to the Celts. Have you tried? If not, it’s always a personal choice anyway. I have many friends who have special abilities trace their euro lineage far back. It is easier when one can talk to Spirit. Best wishes.
Thank you. Best wishes to you, too - and to Cabe with his great idea (I'll be keeping an eye on it)...:)
Excellent!
