Oren Lyons - To Survive, We Must Transform Our Values

- We can all see the Earth is heating up, that polar ice and glaciers are melting, and that ever more fires, floods and droughts are screaming at us that our climate is unraveling. Our societies are also showing signs of unraveling. But the legendary, world-renowned Native American Rights leader, Oren R. Lyons, Faithkeeper of the Turtle Clan of the Onondaga Nation, who, among countless achievements, helped establish the UN’s Working Group on Indigenous Populations and authored or co-authored such profoundly influential texts as: Wilderness in Native American Culture and Exiled in the Land of the Free: Democracy, Indian Nations and the U.S. Constitution, is here to tell us that we can’t give up. We have profound responsibilities to coming generations, and time is of the essence, but if we want to reverse course to prevent climate catastrophe and achieve real peace, we will have to dig deep to transform contemporary society’s core values that underlie and drive the existential crises we are facing.
This keynote talk was delivered at the 2024 Bioneers Conference. To see other talks from the conference, visit www.bioneers.org/2024talks
As a British person, I can see that we need the guidance of Native peoples from around the World to help guide us back to our shared humanity; anchored in an appreciation of our oneness with all things in our World. I see the Native Nations as the guardians of our true nature and oneness. I honour your Leaders, the People and your Ancestors. Your stories, traditions and wisdom must be preserved.
We have lost much of native culture in UK and Europe. The horrors and cataclysms brought on by our empires both historical and present shows the deadly consequences of a lack of nature based/spiritual wisdom. I hope more than anything we can regain what we've lost.
Never has this been more important than now. To listen, and to follow the path laid out by native wisdom. For never before have we been so disconnected with earth and nature. And never before have we so humiliated and degraded the sacred ground we stand on. Do we have it in us to make a u-turn?
Shared humanity-Amen!
Shared responsibility.

I've always said the native American Indians are the only people who can save this planet.
We have been sleeping. We can wake up now. Peace is the way.

They are trying to bring back the Golden Age that they had before the Flood, which the Freemasons and other sects call Atlantis, which was worldwide. We are dealing with a spiritual battle and he is on there side. whether he knows it or not.

What kind of dreams did you have what's the name of light truth hello
“When Great Spirit draws the bow, the arrow always hits the mark.” Oren Lyons, 1993
“Peace”. Thank you, sir.
Wow. I love that. I tell those of European ancestry that the Great Spirit is the correct name for the God of all mankind. Peace.
I'm a native fire keeper and have used those words, a dog shaking it's fleas, to describe the situation on our earth mother. If we continue down the path of greed and not come together as a species, regardless of race, we will not survive 🙏 🔥 🐻 🐾
Light will prevail.
@@dr.faustus922 cause and effect
There are many forms of greed.
I like your name but I fear that light will not prevail until the cycle is completed. We are close to the end of one world and coming into the new world. The wrong path was chosen and it is too late to cause change for good.
We are not fleas each of us made in the image and likeness.
We can get it right

94 years old! Great speech by a great man!❤️❤️❤️🌟🌟🌟👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🙏🙏
Amen! 💪🏽👌💞🇨🇦🐾🐾🌀🦦💦🏕
The American public has been kept ignorant from the very beginning. Let’s remove the wool from our eyes and gather with our true family. Thank you Oren Lyons for the work you are tirelessly doing to shed light, and for sharing the way to live in loving care of each other.
Beautifully said, thank you💞🕊️
They wool is still over his eyes. How can you guys not get that the United Nations is the enemy.,
I wanted to cry listening to this man. His honesty and truth is refreshing to listen to at this time. So powerful.
Don't be deceived.
Oh to sit around a fire and listen to this dear man all night......one night would not be enough🙏
As a Metis citizen, also Scandinavian and Eurasian, middle child, child of divorce, grandfather subjected to residential school, and twin spirit dealing with multiple major and ambiguous grief and loss, so much trauma, I spend every day simply struggling to exist and belong in a world that doesn't believe in me, know me or want or acknowledge me.
Other than maybe by a few of those on the anonymous mental health site 7 Cups of Tea, I'm treated with abuse and toxicity at best every day of my life. I've never stopped showing up and will just keep going - remembering that sacred part of me and living by it's light.
Dear Brothers. This wisdom has fallen on deaf ears for decades. We are up for a shake. I believe we are about to shift in the Golden Age. 2025 is the cliff. Glad to be incarnated now to witness this great shift. Looking forward to meeting with my brothers in the new earth after the coming tribulations. Namaste and love 🙏.
Namaste.
Thank you my Grandfather, I wish you and your family a long and beautiful life.
the North American victors did not want us to know anything about the true history of the United States, which is why Black history and American Indian history are so crucial and interesting and central
I stood up in my classroom and I asked if I was going to be graded on what’s in the history books or what was the truth about the American Indian😊 we weren’t savage as depicted in the history books and I boldface asked I was sent to the principal’s office and suspended from school, and I cried with tears of sadness for my people thought you should know
Our books are full of lies and history is written by idiots.
I'm sorry that you experienced that. Not all of us are so closed minded. Keep telling your stories even if only 1 person listens. Better yet, record the stories as they have been passed down to you.
You're a boss for that. In an empire of lies, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. Stand with integrity and shoulder the weight...like Atlas. 🤙
Thank you for being brave 🦬
Keep saying NO to the lies and the madness behind them! You are Courageous. Don't depend on this broken system for any form of truth. Find out for yourself and encourage others to do the same and share with others.❤🦋🙏
I think, if the world will have peace, there must be leaders from your people that's in power on that continent
We absolutely must unite. Peace, love, one tribe
Thankyou, wonderful to hear someone with calm dignity, wisely speak the simple truth. 🇦🇺
So much gratitude to you Mr. Oren Lyons for educating me in this matters.
Much love and blessings to you! ❤️🙌🙌❤️🌈♥️❤️
Oren, wishing you were our President ❤️ bless you Chief 🫶
He’s a true leader, wise, humble yet strong & fierce armed with love❤️🔥🕊
94!!!!!! Wow, he is Wise and frankly.....a very fine and handsome man!
I always thought that too 😊 My Dad would of just turned 94 this month.
Thankyou Chief Lyons I stand with you and Wakan Tanka.
Aho
I met this great man years ago in South Africa at the World Congress for Sustainable Development for Indigenous People. The leader of the Wolf clan made a hell of an impression on me then with his nobility and simple humility . How blessed to see and hear him again . 🙌
Sustainable Development is a marxist tool to 'pet' people into control and submission.
Protect these stories, thank you for sharing them with us. ❤
I don't think most people understand what he was trying to convey. The great upheaval IS coming, many will die. Most support the master that is about to cut them down. The peace is meant in how we treat each other, the current political climate with rampant attacks shows our true sentiment.
Mother Gaia is about to purge to rid the sickness. She works in cycles of millenia.
Absolutely. You must be Native to understand this. The wrong path was taken. Now, we must wait until this cycle is completed then the next one begins. Then there will be peace.
Telling truth is fitst start to healing for humanity. God bless this man.
Thank you, Humble Chief Oren Lyon of the 6 Nations
GOD Bless You for sharing this message Chief Oren
What a vibrant handsome man...over 90 and he's got such a youthful face!! Fleas,,fork in the road haha!Love it Love him!
Native American people have suffered most in this world needs get out more people dont know i have loved your culture since was child its amazing important what native American s can teach us love from Ireland brothers sisters 🌻❤️
I'd say he's one of the Castlebar Lyons's.... always stirring up trouble them lot....😉
Us Irish have a lot in common with the native American.
We want to be left alone and to our own devices enjoying the beauty and the bounty of nature.
And if the lord God wills it , we may yet again live in harmony with our world
The roots of peace go deep into the four cardinal directions 🙏 indeed
Thank you Oren, your words will be remembered, your care for the rest of us will not be forgotten!
a true leader, thank YOU! we need your knowledge and wisdom 🌎🙏 thank you for sharing ❤
Tree 🌳 of peace 🕊️ 🌎 we’re still here 🦋🌈🦄
Democracy was rampant on turtle island everyone was free 🎉😂❤😊 huge community of life nothing " wild "😊. Such poetry kiaora oren 😊.
I Am very Grateful to hear this today, Love and Gratitude 🤙 🙏 🕊🌾
It has never hurt anyone to be modest just a little bit❤
An immense honor all my relations!
Ohh the changes on turtleisland
Dropping land rising water
Mother earth needs to wiggle
Corporations spoil democracy
Greedy arms of endless need
While starving people we must feed
Chanting songs blessing beads
Finding peace by loving
Thee
Ho!
My utmost Respect my ! BROTHER. YES !!!! YOU ARE SO ABSOLUTELY RIGHT.
THE DOG IS ABOUT TO SHAKE and the Big Rivers are now flowing.
" Continue to Walk in Beauty ".
Hiy! Hiy! ⚡🦅⚡
They say, “history was written by the victors” oof! I am clear on my path in this moment 💛🧘
Here is the gold in multiculturalism. A different perspective. Gathering different perspectives is a path to wisdom - a path to better living and survival itself. Woke ideologues and corporate power mongers should lend their ears and open their minds and hearts.
Selfish humans may not be capable 🙏
Iain McGilchrist, an UK psychiatrist and brain researcher, talks about our two brain hemispheres and how they work : One focus on "I want that thing", the other focus on the whole picture. In his view, the Western Elite is totally dominated by "I want". No mercy, no wisdom, no care for others. He argues we need to change our way of thinking.
@@lightwillprevailwe have been overrun with Narcissistic Psychopath’s. They are not from the light. They are everywhere.

Greetings from an Indian from INDIA ❤❤❤😊😊
Thank you for this opportunity to learn, as there is so much we don't know. I am grateful. 🙏
Good to see mr. Lyons is still here! A greatly respected Elder!
It appears We are now at the fork in the road ;✨✨✨✨
let’s take it!
Thank you Oren! I appreciate your words so much.🌸🩷🦅🙏🏼🐢🌏
I am a 10th great-granddaughter of Massasoit Ousamequin who had mercy upon the pilgrim immigrants and covenanted with them and kept it for 50 years to be at peace with each other. I'm also the 10th great-granddaughter of many of the pilgrims themselves too. I love both sides and understand there was a good thing in the beginning. I am grateful the founding fathers who were also my great grandfather's took time to bring in the 6 nations to form yet another covenant to form a more better union. Both sides began wonderfully and ended terribly. Both sides need healing. I am a peacemaker at heart. I have made covenant with my God to help bring us back to this state of peace. I believe this is the way, for all of us to covenant to bring peace again.
This is an amazing privilege to be able to see this. I believe in all of us! And I think its good time to reintroduce these parts of history, ways to live and so much more wisdom back to the people. I mean so much has been purposely kept from us to suite evil agenda's. What an exciting opportunity we have! We got plenty of work to do! We cant give up, people have to learn a new way of life. If we all remember its for a better world!💗
I agree Oren for President
Bless you, Dear Oren❣️🦅🐺🦌🪶
Absolutely love this man.
I Love Oren Lyons! It's so good to see him again on here. Same age as my Dad would of been this month.
I wonder Oren when you talk about peace, if you mean peace being the opposite of war and conflict? Or are you talking about spiritual peace? Our true nature IS PEACE ITSELF. It's each person's job to go within and seek that which we already are.
Yeah, the four directions in the heart too (making up a cross). We need to connect to our Sacred Heart within. And that Heart is magnetic. It creates the dream world.
If you live in the heart space, you got the "pull."
Ego pushes, the Heart (love) pulls.
The Aboriginals know how to live out from the Heart space.
Thank you Oren for sharing your wisdom and knowledge. It's really good to see you.
As Spock would say, "LIVE LONG AND PROSPER." ❤🙏
P.S. I've been watching the tv show called ALONE, and alot of them really struggle, and i think "the Native Americans always lived like this. " Meaning, out in the wild. They were ONE WITH NATURE. Nature was their home. Like most of the people on ALONE, can't wait to go home. Nature, and we are nature itself, are home itself and don't realize it.
Amen; HalleluYAH Benevolent Family for Coming Forth with these "Whited Out Truths!" Namaste! 🌌💐🌚🕊️🙌🧠🌈⚖️
Respect. Appreciation. Admiration.
🙏❤️
Too much timetravelling into past w nostalgia & sadness leaves ppl in the present timeline w feelings of being lost. We need the empowerment, words spoken like “nature is the boss” “the word for wild doesn’t exist” “the community includes even the smallest insect” “we need to unite”. This is what will support Rights of Earth to move forward.
I love hearing the true history of Native Americans or First Nation People I as someone who was born in America I support other natives, I am educated and aware of the huge influence of natives on the creation of America I am split between my love of both my nation and the deep history of where I was born.
This is where we belong a part of nature operated by love
I am; extremely happy with your sharing your Ancestry that created the USA 🇺🇸; and what happened to all Native Americans; especially when those ignorant Christian’s destroyed you the True America ❤
Thank you for sharing this truth and wisdom. May we find out way home 🙏🏼
If I had it my way I'd given it all back to all the Tribes❤
"Nature is the boss and has always been the boss"
Thank you. Refreshing and reassuring. Always been about peace, nature is the boss, people are not free and words I needed to hear right now, it ain't over till it's over.
Much Love, Gratitude, and Peace ~
Wise words, and I want to further their reach. The problem with democracy, is that we don't have any, but what we have, we call democracy. The system is parliamentarism with polyarchy, groups infighting for power. The system is also dualistic, hierarchical, and fragmenting. It's built for eternal conflict, not for conscious and constructive co-operation. The only way out is to open the gates of 3. "When you only have two options, take the third", or as Chief Oren said: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." Democracy isn't freedom, it's a special kind of mental prison. Freedom isn't freedom either, as long as it is presented as the opposite of tyranny. The opposite of tyranny is non-tyranny. Freedom is freedom from all structure and framework. That is raw nature where the strongest will dictate the life of everyone else. It is not a road ahead, it's a road back before civilisation. What we need is a non-tyrannical system based on true and real power, not the coercive force of Big Money, Big State, Big Pharma, Big Agro and any other Big anti-life entity. "Organic Leadership". When we all stop hunkering and obeying those who force us to obey, we create a system made for us, by us and with us.
Absolutely necessary history for all of humanity here in 30 golden minutes, thank you Oren Lyons for your wisdom
Thank you Oren for your tireless steadfastness for our Great Mother and endeavoring to awaken the human species from their Great Sleep...Peace, Love and Blessings to you my Elder, my Brother ❤🦋🙏

How beautiful where the leaves touch the water 🙏
We must break the corporate strangle hold on the US and the world. Equity and Hedge funds must be strictly limited or outlawed as they are causing the most damage in the name of $$$$$ and greed.
Seven generations!!
Blessed are the peacemakers, because they will be called sons of God
Mr. Lyons it’s so good to see you. You were my first and most important mentor at UB. Seeing you warms my heart ❤

There is so much wisdom in your speach, I really whish there was more of that in the world… keep on igniting peoples hearts all over the world! Thank you very much for your work and for keeping your history alive! In honour and respect, 🙏🏻🇨🇭🐲
This is a beautiful lecture. I wish I knew more about this true American history.
It was God intent for each culture to learn from one another and not annihilate and destroy each other or see one group superior than the other.
We all can bring something to the table.
We are legion. We started moving decades ago. Nothing stops spring time from coming.
The natives of latin America are treated so badly !

its a reminder for us of the importance of incorporating principles of peace and sustainability into our global ethos. This perspective is essential as we navigate the challenges of modern governance and environmental stewardship. 🌍
We love your comments! great joy knowing your here, Thank You!
‘’We must transform our values’’ towards non human animals and reconnect with our natural empathic, social, peaceful Herbivore nature/spirit. The world is being destroyed by the use of animals and their secretions as food!. ✊🏽🌎🌻
Most have forgotten our roots, but we all come from the great spirit that has given us life, an only when we remember our connection to this earth,will be begin to hopefully heal, the sickness which we have Roth for wealth, power, land and resources….great men remember their spiritual animal, as I have always been known as animal, animal people belong to the earth spirit, we have a great sorrow knowing that we do not change, the future will be written upon a empty land….Peace !
Thank you ❤️🌺
