How To Prepare For A Vision. Native American (Navajo) Teachings

- A lot of Indigenous people have something they refer to as a vision quest.
In Navajo Traditional Ways, there is a way to prepare oneself for a vision or seek some higher knowledge with their deity.
This usually comes as a promise or agreement. Our Navajo ancestors made promises or agreements with the Holy People. An example of this is the agreement to keep the language and the promise to speak the language to one another.
In the traditional way, this can be done on the individual level as well.
In this video, Navajo historian Wally Brown shares a little bit of what that looks like.
Enjoy the video.

My grandfather grew up in Yuma and then moved to New Mexico after surviving WW2. He fought with the Navajo code talkers and always had great respect for the Navajo culture. I never got to meet him. After a very deep low point in my life, I began running miles every day. One day I couldn't help but feel that he, specifically, was running right beside me as an ancestor. This was at a wildlife preserve in an area in the Pacific Northwest that once belonged to a tribe called Nisqually.

@@terrieanndiehl58 Thankyou for sharing this, much love 💓🙌
God definitely had a plan and purpose for the Navajo. They literally were as saviors to the nations of the world.
*goosebumps*
A beautiful encounter❤! 😅Thank you to your grandfather. Perhaps our grandfathers crossed paths or are sharing as we speak. Gampy never spoke of his long involvement in collecting and cracking the Japanese code (a tedious undertaking thus the first ‘computer’). We only learned after his death 😢. I can’t imagine his ability in doing so without input from the Navajo Codetalkers.
i feel gratefull for this teachings, to have someone sharing all this principles and traditions with us is truly a blesing.
Read braiding sweetgrass and black elk speaks has a lot of spiritual teachings of turtle island. Legends of vancouver by pauline johnson is another book to check out. Books are priceless
I would say not to put the teachings Just in digital media but to write things down. Digital media could easily be lost
Heave you ever read a book?
I am not American and has never met these American Indians or indigenious people. But this man's teachings is sacred. So meaningful and civilised. If only we listen. I feel connected to his explanations as if my grandfather is explaining to me. Thank you sir. With great joy i feel. 😊
Elder Wally is indeed a blessing! But we all have elders in our own places and communities, if we take the time to listen before the Old Ways are lost forever! ❤️🙏💞🪶
@🍄The Shaman from within 🍄 Technology, "medicine", "education" 😂😂😂
@🍄The Shaman from within 🍄 You really think civilization is great and helps us? It does not. Most advancements have deteriorated us, not improved us.
We have more medicine, yet we are sicker than ever.
We have more access to information than ever before, yet we are more deluded and misinformed than ever.
We have more means of connection than ever before, yet we are more disconnected than ever.
All our ancestors had a hand in the development of this land, not one tribe or another as they are are our ancestors too 🙏
@🍄The Shaman from within 🍄 no such person natives are colored
I’m not Navajo but I am Native and I am very thankful for this channel, because like many families, we have lost connection with our culture
@🍄The Shaman from within 🍄
I don’t mean any disrespect, but I think you might upset people by claiming to be native when you’re English. I am Indigenous and am part of a tribe. My ancestors were of this land where I live
Yes and we need more connection
You didn't "lose" your culture.
The European Colonialist Squatters tried to destroy it through Genocide, but it's not lost.
@Shaman196sources? 🤔
@Shaman196 🤡 keep going, let's see just how ridiculous you are squatter.
I am Maori from New Zealand and our Elder Wally Brown feels like a Grandfather to us all, Worldwide. I am so grateful for all his teachings. Spiritual knowledge and wisdom transcends time and all cultures.
I know the langauge because of bionicles=avatar way of water,nui
is the 2nd group of na'vi accurrite sort of or not?/
still want to build the polenesean people in bionicles.
They should teach this in schools. We need this kind of culture in our society.
They are it's just that I'm one of the few who listened
Thank you for caring so deeply, and for sharing your vast wealth of knowledge, Mr. Brown. 🙏🏻
"Remember that all is One... and what you do to your neighbor, your friend or your foe, is a reflection of what you think of your Creator.
Grace is the wonderful spirit that imbues every fiber of our being when we practice the fruits of the spirit: kindness, patience, understanding, forgiveness, love, gentleness, fellowship and endurance.
Make the world a better place because you have lived in it."
Edgar Cayce

My farther showed up at my mother's house after he crossed over. He came to tell me he was sorry and I forgave him. And when I'm having really hard times in my life, I have visions of the wolves protecting me. Standing by my side growling at something. Or they make a circle around me and I'm laying down in the middle.
I always feel better about myself after listening to Mr. Wally Brown...🦉🦅🐻🌵🐰
How lovely! 😍
Did it with mushrooms and had to go through it alone. Took me from 17 to 21. I'm not done. You never are😊. Love is the key to let go of all the pain inside. You are an infinite being. A soul. We're all family. Communication is key. Talk about anything and everything and just be genuine and honest with yourself and others.
I hope native Americans could revive their own ancestors religion, culture and tradition.
These are the identity these are the strength ✊
Love from India 🇮🇳
@Shaman196 nah there are religions which u how to become a good human and work by law and justice.
Every religions aren't so toxic like abrahamic...only focus on how to convert others and go to heaven. The end
This video brought me to tears. I have suffered in despair through strife for so long that I have become ignorant to joy. I didn't realize how much shame I am infected with until realizing I need to make myself presentable to the holy people. I once had so much pride that i was invincible... now I know i could never look my creator in the face. I guess this is what it is to be humbled and why pride is so sinful. I will trade my value of "Take pride in your work" and exchange it with "Be satisfied with a job well done" This is the message that I'm recieving, and it already makes me feel less ill toward others that struggle too. I am looking forward to a good cleansing. 🙏
Beautifully said and exactly as I've been feeling the last few years, more than ever! ❤️
You are very wise. I appreciate your teachings.
I'm kinda like a little kid who just got a treat every time I see a notification.
TY
i am from New Zealand, Maori... We have sort of the same in our culture also. Tohunga is what we call those that Converse with the Gods for the People
The sweat lodge is a powerful experience! ❤
You know I have said prayers for answers for so long now for answers from god for the government to not steal my family’s little piece of land from us that we have owned for 24 yrs now. But I don’t think I’m praying right bc today they came and dozed my yard and fences down to make road’s bigger. My heart is so very saddened to see that they are still stealing our land from us. Me and my little girls cried 😢today when they dozed all the trees in what was once our yard. 😢we will miss our birds,rabbits,squirrels,raccoons,and mama and baby deers 🦌 that we had here. I’ve prayed for healing for everyone involved the earth the animals my family’s hearts and even the people who are doing this to our family. I do not lie cheat or steal from anyone so it just really hurts my heart to have this done to us. Our property marker meant nothing to them. 😢
😢
I'm grieving with you. This is so sad. When will they learn~ Blessings for you & yours~

This is so sacred for those of us that are blessed enough to be able to found your teachings. We are so fortunate all my life. I have wanted to understand this knowledge and now I get to have this opportunity and I am so grateful.
Miigwech Mishomis Wally - I am so grateful for you and for sharing what comes from your heart with us. ❤
What do your 1st two words express?
@@terrieanndiehl58 "Miigwech means (thank you) Mishomis means (Grandfather)" in Ojibwe.
I am from the Ojibwe nation in Canada.
@@shannonmisquadis I live nearby, so I knew miigwech, and guessed the rest.
I am white but have had past lives as a native person & so has my grandma.. I’m 16, but all of my life I have always been drawn to the native people and culture. It is so beautiful and so spiritually diverse & fascinating. I absolutely love his teachings, so so beautiful & educational
All that has been said here rings like a clear truth in my heart. So grateful for all the indigenous Elders around the globe, those who are still connected to Spirit, Nature and all that is ... we have much to learn from Them ❤☀️🌙⭐️
We are striving to fulfill the rainbow prophecy. Seeing this flowing into the world brings great joy to our hearts!
❤😭😭😭❤️
The Navajo Art behind you is very beautiful.
I love these teachings, stories, and wisdom. Every time I see a new video I can’t hit the video fast enough or find time to sit and listen fast enough. It’s rare to find great teachers of the ancient traditions. Heil ok sael þulr
Heil
Thank you Wally for your inspiration today… It is an honor to listen to your stories ❤…
Thank you.
The teaching in this video is a spiritual war council. The weapon of the All Father & Sacred Mother is love and patience. Thank you
I follow the teachings of Jesus. Those teachings are universal and I feel in seeking a closer relationship with my creator, my savior, that many paths to God's love are shown to me.
Thank you for this information. It's said in the Christian bible that, "my people perish for lack of knowledge."
I will pray for wisdom, peace and direction. Perhaps I will have a vision.
There is a reason why we are all here to hear what this brother in arms has to say. Peace love light to everyone's hearts and all praise and great glory to our father in heaven. I would be nothing without the creator.
You are grandfather of all who'll listen. So wise thank you.
We can learn so much from the indigenous people throughout the planet if we just sat down and listen to their incredible knowledge of History, Spirituality and this beautiful Planet. Thank you for sharing. ❤️🌏❤️
In my own irish way, I just do it. I ask my question, or, I feel the call, I go, I get the information, and even if I spoke like an evangelist, no one one listens. As for myself, all I've ever wanted, was someone to share it with. Not a partner, wife etc, just someone to share it with. Power must flow and even indigenous have forgotten that
I don't think they have forgotten ~ I Believe many are just lost & in reaction ~rather than a healthy EDUCATED RESPONSE, as many people are right now during this GREAT SHIFTING ~, ESPECIALLY OUR YOUTH. We need more Direction from those who know like Wally.
Great Gratitude For This Man of Wisdom. He has been teaching & guiding me for years now with these teachings.
Exactly. I understand. Me too. Blessed be everyone.
I wish you a lot of peace and Guidance; And to meet other people. There are so many that feel the deepest meanings of life, and sense the Great Transformation, that is happening now. Sometimes showing your sincerest Being the best way, beyond words..🙏💖🌟
Forgotten? 😂 🤔 now youre reaching 😂 it was destroyed by the whote churches and white people, kinda ironic isnt it 😂
Hi anishnabe and Cherokee here meeguech thank you to all the grandfather's who protect us and love us. We love you too. Ya ta hay
So thankful to have found this man.
He is the only elder I have to learn from. ❤❤❤
So many people have food. I'm so grateful even yet remaining in need. Thank you grandfather for prayers of sustenance.❤🐬🙏👸🌺🙋💌
Blessings for you & yours~
Miigwetch ♥️
I appreciate your speaking, you being honest, it is hard to find people who are truthful these days. I’m from Canada ont, pic mobert First Nation.
Miigwetch ♥️
Excellent timing! 😌right when God turned on the yearly sweat lodge in Tucson...🥵😥😅
I had read about incredible sweat lodge ceremonies in the writings of Black Elk and William S. Lyon. Great to hear a firsthand account. Imbibing the purification herbs before ceremony, is clearly the way. The world needs this.
I love you so much grandfather, I thank you with my whole heart ❤️
David
As he described his own vision quest, I just felt it grasping my heart ❤ if we, here in Europe, only realised, how powerful and important us the connection we have with our families... Maybe there would be so much less abuse and domestic violence cases 💔 Beautiful ❤
Thank you grandfather.
These words are true, powerful and easy to understand and apply to one's life.
Now more than ever we need guidance like this.
Thank you for sharing this. 🙏
I very much appreciate these videos. My grandfather and father have moved on to join the creator. Having native blood in my veins I have had a vision quest, it was life changing. Much appreciation.
"Date with the Holy People" is beautiful. 🖤
🙏 Thank You
What a treasure of a man.
The day he moves on to the next world,
Will be a sad, sad day indeed.
We must learn what we can, while we can.
Thank you, it's like I lost my blood grandfather, and gained a world grandfather who has taught me so many things and things within things, ❤❤
thank you wise teacher for going out of youre way i Am thankful
I enjoyed hearing your wisdom regarding equivalent exchange. Thank you for teaching how to approach making a sacred soul contract. 🙏
Equivalent Energy Exchange ~ Yes~
Ok 6 videos in I think and I can listen to him forever. Very informative and interesting.
💛🧡💚 Oh, these words of Wisdom and Love. Powerful. Appreciated.
God bless you guys for sharing this sacred wisdom with us, to help guide us through this fourth world.
Thank you for helping us 💜🕊
God Bless, I am more intouch with the Navajo in my blood than any other of the many nationalities in my blood.. they know something that the world needs to know right now
Thank you Billy for explaining the difference between Joy and Happiness. I was missing that particulate of wisdom...I'd forgotten it since '20 started, even before we knew about what a novel coronavirus was. Sure I'd gotten moments of happiness many times over, but I'd managed to go about my life and forget about Joy and the magic that it creates around it. I'm going to put that to work.
Thank you again
Thanks so much for posting this stuff, guys.
Thank you so much for your teaching 🦌...
I've done a lot of hopeful wishing in my 44 years. I know the best of them count as prayers. Not all my wishes are things I'm proud of, and they are things I would caution my children against, as much as my time and words would allow. That's no small task. Be well and keep praying 🙏
I named my daughter Levity
I love this one! Doing our part is what I consider the small thing. The holy people do the big part then. Being pure in mind, body, spirit and heart also remove the walls that block the information we are seeking. It's a treat for me to listen to what you say. I struggle to find others who understand in this way. ❤
I just love these videos, I’ve always been fascinated with native Americans, ever since I was a small child. We were on a trip and I wanted to go to a Native American living area. My mom said honey we have to be invited I think we were driving through Arizona, I love the stories. Thank you for sharing them they’re beautiful.😊🇺🇸
😂
Omfg
I enjoy listening to this great man. He speaks honestly and imparts great truths. His words are simple, but hold great power in the information he speaks.
Fascinating. Thanks Wally

I havnt thought about joy in a while . my best friend missing 2 years . . a long time ago I hiked to far in the sun without water lookt bac at town and didn't like it I asked my purpose.i got stressed and thought my friends were headed fr douglas pass and I had gone back to devils canyon because I left something important on a terrace. found my job up there saw some pretty lights in my head. . . life's beautiful
You are very wise. I appreciate your teachings.. The sweat lodge is a powerful experience! .
I am Navajo and lost my father Dr. Jack.C.Jackson on March 5 2023. He like Wally Brown was a traditional man who would talk to me about our culture, history and traditions like Wally does. I miss these teachings and now turn to this channel to learn more. My father was a politician serving in the AZ State Legislature for 20 years, first as a state rep then Senator as a Democrat. He lobbied for the Indian people of AZ and was respected by both parties. His twin brother Dr. Dean C. Jackson was an educator, philosopher and former President of Dine' College. They both emphasized to me importance of maintaining our ways. They were also members of the Native American Church (Peyote Way) my father serving as president for four years of the NAC of Navajoland. Thank you for keeping my learning going as I no longer have my father or uncle to teach me.
This is somebody I would love to have over for a Sunday brunch.
This man is so wise thank you for sharing
Thank you Wally, for sharing the fruits of your wisdom with us. Of all the channels on TH-cam where we can be, we are here, learning life lessons from you. I feel lucky to be here. 🙏🤍✝️
Teachings of a true Holy Man.
Thank you very much ❤I appreciate all the teachings.
I need a sweat. The energy is strong.
Come live in uk.you’ll not sweat
I am so grateful to have found these teachings. So very honored to hear and learn. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you, elder Brown. Blessings to you wise teacher..
I like your story!
Thank you for passing this wisdom and information to us, Grandfather.
Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom. Much respect. God bless us all. Keep spreading love and light🙏🏼
AND THOSE ARE THE THINGS WE ARE TOLD
WOULD LOOK GREAT
ON A SHIRT !!
💚 appreciation 💚
The self respect and the respect for the earth is inspiring.
I have been listening to you for a few weeks now. I am not Native Amarican but listening to you makes me see are world different more understanding of how people have become . ( Not Respect God and each other ) This world is changing and not for the good.
One of my anthropology professors was invited to a sweat lodge. I think this is a very interesting ritual. Do women have their own sweat lodge? How are we to understand the holy people? Do they have male and/or female identity? How many holy people are there, or is there just one? I appreciate the clarity and wisdom of your teachings. Thank you.
Meditation is medicine. . . .
Most tribes the women go in the sweat with the men. Among the Crow the men go in for 4 rounds then the women go in after the men are gone.
It may depend on what tribe we are talking about, but the ultimate Creator of everything seems to often be treated as entirely genderless & faceless, but every other being, physical & supernatural, is treated as having one of the five genders Native peoples had words for & that ca largely be expressed as man, woman, non-binary man, non-binary woman & coward. I always figured it was trans man & woman until pretty recently, when I found some deeper info that seems to show that such people weren't seen as having completely transitioned to the opposite but were actually seen as both a man & a woman at the same exact time. Definitely not an expert on the southwest, but I usually hear about their creator being clearly defined as a female deity. Hopefully, I'm not wrong on that.
Woman have their own ceremony inside but they can sweat too
Thank you, very much.
Muchas gracias. 😌
A very wise man and I relate with his story of his child being born and that undecribable joy, which is spiritual. I have continued to be very grateful for moments such as this.
Thank you for sharing!
Grest Teaching! I Learned life long Wisdom from The Navaho and Hopi Tribes while living in The Southwest. Blessings
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
So gratefull for your teaching us the ways of our Holy People. You have to give to get. Thank you so much. Joy and Happyness.
Thank you! Merci!... love is and fear is.. my Friend.. prepare.
Many thanks for this gift of knowledge
Thank you for the teachings on preparing for gathering with the spirits
A'he'he' niitsaago. I am on a spiritual journey and your teachings are uncovering so many buried teachings that I heard and observed in my early childhood from my parents, grandmother and the elderly people.
He is a very special angelic human being. I thank him eternally for his guidance through Earth's realm.❤
Thankyou for sharing, I like the Holy people certainly they have much to teach us promises and fulfilments ❤️ when we walk the Beauty way. 😊
the art on the wall hanging is so frickin insane its the ultimate "psychedelic" image that particular one so nice..
Thank you uncle. We need these teachings in order for pahana to return and heal mother
Thank you, Papa ✨ very important
Always learn so much from you, great teacher. Much appreciated, respect Mr Brown. 🙏💜🤗
Ty for the teachings A'ho
I cherish the time out of your day. I hold dear the words that you say. I pray, for you teach the good way. As love is here to guide and stay.
Blessings always and thanks 🙏
I remember on the night of first november, when we remember the dead. After i lightened two candles for my grandmother and other grandmother's housband that day, in the evening two shiny angels flew by. They made loud noise like an aeroplane with their wings. And they moved wings at the exact same time. They came from the east, and above my head they turned the direction up. And they flew up, till they became smaller and smaller, till i couldn't see them no more. And on that evening i was very sad, more then usuall, but they took all my sadness away in a split second. I felt in peace after...
My Prayer would include the ways of the Natives and bring back respect for Mother Earth, in all we do, going forward.
When your voice, strong and clear, you know and your heart skips a beat the agreement is met. Just make sure you keep your part. They giveth and they will taketh away
Thank you grandfather! ❤❤❤
Been fortunate to have known 2 people in my life who've gone out West on Visionquests. Both were in dire need of change, and both came back cleansed and renewed, living very different lives afterward! ❤️🙏💞🪶
