When you gave a little laugh and said "that's a lot of information" I was just taking in Mr. James' story, as respect asks us to do , He was giving his story, his people's story, provenance, if you will. To not abuse our natural resources, take one, leave the rest for regeneration. Thank you
Thanks for your Navy service, Mike. You got out about the time I went in (1970-1974). I might have flown in one of the helicopters you worked on. I love the stories about the lives and spiritual beliefs of the people. It is important to listen to these stories and that is what Nick brings to all of us who want to listen. I was not born into your culture but I appreciate it nevertheless.
@@shiverarts8284 The great thing is that the elders we interview share the tools required to stay focus, it's us who need to put into practice. Ahe' hee for your comment and support! 🤙🏾
NIZHONI NIZHONI thanks for the sharing and teaching of NAC, my dad was once a NAC conductor and believed in the healing of the peyote. Now he is just a traditional man with many songs and kinaldah conductor
It is 💯 % True what Mike said about God (The Creator) 🙏🏽 gave us the intellect to do whatever we want to do … The Potential, The Capabilities.. You’ve been given all that… Your Life ❤️
Thank you for posting. The old ways are good, and true. The medicine has been used on this continent for more than 10,000 years.. majority of people don't understand it and misuse and abuse it. It's not a a hallucinogen, not a drug, if you don't understand it, learn from a true source or stay away. There are many misunderstandings and opportunist who want to gain financially or in popularity from it. Don't be misled. This man speaks the humble truth...
Aoh' agreed! My late great grandfather was a Dine' medicine man and he encouraged us to hold onto living off of natural medicine and plants. The plants and land know of our intent before we touch the soil. Like Mr James stated The plants and wildlife are leaving. I'm sure they left because they don't have anyone containing the tradition. We noticed that in our area, we searched for healing sage but most are gone. Wild carrots are scarce but when we do find them, they are more dry than usual. Ahe' hee for your support and comment. 🤙🏾
_Ya'at'eeh Shik'is_ From Fort Wingate/Iyanbito Im researching more and more about the culture and researching the language on TH-cam. I love being Diné:)
Nizhoni! Glad you're taking that first step of finding the information. Another great channel is Navajo Traditional Teachings by Wally. Really great resource!
Comment: is the informant Akimel O’odom (Pima)? . . . if I’m not mistaken the “butte” is known among the Pima as “Santan” . . . my mother was from Sacaton. 😘
Good to hear where people got their fireplaces from. I use to attend peyote gatherings. But lately people have been changing things. Mixing it up and whatever. Plus to many yanni folks around the fireplace nowadays.
What he’s talking about is really true that’s how they used to run the meeting back in the days.. yes it is God’s fireplace we just use it to utilize it to heal people patient that’s how the different tribe do it and that’s how they talk about it it is true nizhonii Aho 🪶

That's how I was thought. The true users are very rare to this day. I'm teaching my children's now how I was told to carry it.
Nizhoni, what area are you from? Ahe' hee 🤙🏾

Are you aware the “Mormon group” opened bibles and blessed the mountain and renamed it…about 20 years ago? Back when NIDS was out there.
Interesting, we did not know that. We'll look into that someday. Ahe' hee
Comment: is the informant Akimel O’odom (Pima)? . . . if I’m not mistaken the “butte” is known among the Pima as “Santan” . . . my mother was from Sacaton. 😘
Thanks for sharing, I'll look into that
Greasewood AZ is too far north and he is dine . . . and that is butte is not San Tan, my mistake. 😬
Nizhoni 👍

Reminds me a lot of my donor👌
