1986 - Continental Indigenous Council, Tanana Valley Fairgrounds, Fairbanks, Alaska

There was the cycle o the !ineral, the rock" There was the cycle o the #lant" And now we are in the cycle o the ani!al co!ing to the end o that and beginning the cycle o the hu!an being" $hen we get into the cycle o the hu!an being, the highest and greatest #owers that we ha%e will be released to us"

They will be released ro! that light or soul that we carry to the !ind" &ut right now we're co!ing to the end o the ani!al cycle and we ha%e in%estigated oursel%es and learned what it is to be like an ani!al on this earth"

At the beginning o this cycle o ti!e, long ago, the (reat )#irit ca!e down and *e !ade an a##earance and *e gathered the #eo#les o this earth together they say on an island which is now beneath the water and *e said to the hu!an beings, +I'! going to send you to our directions and o%er ti!e I'! going to change you to our colors, but I'! going to gi%e you so!e teachings and you will call these the ,riginal Teachings and when you co!e back together with each other you will share these so that you can li%e and ha%e #eace on earth, and a great ci%ili-ation will co!e about"+

And he said +.uring the cycle o ti!e I'! going to gi%e each o you two stone tablets" $hen I gi%e you those stone tablets, don't cast those u#on the ground" I any o the brothers and sisters o the our directions and the our colors cast their tablets on the ground, not only, will hu!an beings ha%e a hard ti!e, but al!ost the earth itsel will die"+

And so he ga%e each o us a res#onsibility and we call that the (uardianshi#" To the Indian #eo#le, the red #eo#le, he ga%e the (uardianshi# o the earth" $e were to learn during this cycle o ti!e the teachings o the earth, the #lants that grow ro! the earth, the oods that you can eat, and the herbs that are healing so that when we ca!e back together with the other brothers and sisters we could share this knowledge with the!" )o!ething good was to ha##en on the earth"

To the )outh, he ga%e the yellow race o #eo#le the (uardianshi# o the wind" They were to learn about the sky and breathing and how to take that within oursel%es or s#iritual ad%ance!ent" They were to share that with is at this ti!e"

To the $est *e ga%e the black race o #eo#le the (uardianshi# o the water" They were to learn the teachings o the water which is the chie o the ele!ents, being the !ost hu!ble and the !ost #ower ul" $hen I went to the /ni%ersity o $ashington and I learned that it was a black !an that disco%ered blood #las!a, it didn't sur#rise !e because blood is water and the elders already told !e the black #eo#le would bring the teachings o the water"

To the 0orth *e ga%e the white race o #eo#le the (uardianshi# o the ire" I you look at the center o !any o the things they do you will ind the ire" They say a light bulb is the white !an's ire" I you look at the center o a car you will ind a s#ark" I you look at the center o the air#lane and the train you will ind the ire" The ire consu!es, and also !o%es" This is why it was the white brothers and sisters who began to !o%e u#on the ace o the earth and reunite us as a hu!an a!ily"

And so a long ti!e #assed, and the (reat )#irit ga%e each o the our races two stone tablets" ,urs are ke#t at the *o#i 1eser%ation in Ari-ona at Four Corners Area on 2rd 3ason"

I talked to #eo#le ro! the black race and their stone tablets are at the oot o 3ount 4enya" They are ke#t by the 4ukuyu Tribe" I once had the honor o #resenting a sacred #i#e at the 4ukuyu Tribe car%ed ro! the red #i#e stone o 3ount 4enya" I was at an Indian s#iritual gathering about 15 years ago"

A !edicine !an ro! )outh .akota #ut a beaded !edicine wheel in the !iddle o the gathering" It had the our colors ro! the our directions6 *e asked the #eo#le, +$here is this ro!7+ They said, +8robably 3ontana, or )outh .akota, !aybe )eskatchewan"+ *e said, +This is ro! 4enya"+ It was beaded 9ust like ours, with the sa!e color

The stone tablets o the yellow race o #eo#le are ke#t by the Tibetans, in Tibet" I you went straight through the *o#i 1eser%ation to the other side o the world, you would

co!e out in Tibet" The Tibetan word or +sun+ is the *o#i word or +!oon+ and the *o#i word or +sun+ is the Tibetan word or +!oon+"

The guardians o the traditions o the #eo#le o :uro#e are the )wiss" In )wit-erland, they still ha%e a day when each a!ily brings out its !ask" They still know the colors o the a!ilies, they still know they!bols, so!e o the!" I went to school with so!e #eo#le ro! )wit-erland at the /ni%ersity o $ashington and they shared this with !e"

:ach o these our #eo#les ha##en to be #eo#le that li%e in the !ountains"

In 19;6 A!erica had its bicentennial celebrating <== years o reedo!" )o!e o the 0ati%e #eo#le thought this was signi icant and they carried a sacred #i#e bundle ro! the $est Coast to the :ast Coast o this land"

They said that the roads o this land should either go 0orth-)outh or :ast-$est" I they went 0orth-)outh we would co!e together as brothers and sisters, but i they went :ast$est there would be destruction and al!ost the earth itsel would ha%e a hard ti!e" )o you all know the roads went :ast-$est"

They said then things would be lost ro! the :ast to the $est and ro! the )outh to the 0orth and that they would co!e back again ro! the $est to the :ast and ro! the 0orth to the )outh" )o nine years ago in 19;6 ro! the $est to :ast Coast o this land, ro! )an Francisco to $ashington, ."C" #eo#le carried a sacred #i#e bundle by hand, on oot"

3y aunt had drea!t 15 years ago that #eo#le that didn't >ike the! would throw rocks and bottles at that #i#e bundle as they carried it across the land" And sure enough that ca!e about" &ut, as was in !y aunt's drea!, the rocks only ca!e so close and then they dro##ed, and nothing touched it"

$hen they reached the to# o the 1ocky 3ountains, they hit a hard stor!" An elderly !an with long white hair said, +I will carry it now"+ They had a %an that went alongside the #eo#le who were walking" *e got out o the %an and carried the sacred #i#e bundle clear through that stor!" *e was so cold when he got back in the %an that so!eone

touched his hair and it ell" *is hair was ro-en" ?ou ha%e to be #retty cold or your hair to ree-e but that old !an carried it through that stor! because they said i they carried this bundle across the earth, the #owers would begin to co!e back"

They said a s#iritual ire would be lit in the 0orth and would co!e down the 0orthwest Coast o this land" $hen it gets to the 8uget )ound, it would go inland" I think this, nine years later, is the gathering in the 0orth, !ysel " That's why I ca!e here" This is it" $e ha%e the ca#acity to start the-s#iritual ire now, here" The old #eo#le long ago saw it and oretold it and I'! going to co!e to that"

)o we went through this cycle o ti!e and each o the our races went to their directions and they learned their teachings" It was on 0ewsweek not too long ago that eight out o ten oods that #eo#le eat on the earth are de%elo#ed here in the western he!is#here because that was our (uardianshi#, to learn the teachings o the earth, and the things that grow ro! the :arth"

$e were gi%en a sacred handshake to show when we ca!e back together as brothers and sisters that we still re!e!bered the teachings" It was indicated on the stone tablets that the *o#is had that the irst brothers and sisters that would co!e back to the! would co!e as turtles across the land"

They would be hu!an beings, but they would co!e as turtles" )o when the ti!e ca!e close the *o#is were at a s#ecial %illage to welco!e the turtles that would co!e across the land and they got u# in the !orning and looked out at the sunrise"

They looked out across the desert and they saw the )#anish Con@uistadores co!ing, co%ered in ar!our, like turtles across the land" )o this was the!" )o they went out to the )#anish !an and they eAtended their hand ho#ing or the handshake but into the hand the )#anish !an dro##ed a trinket" And so word s#read throughout 0orth A!erica that there was going to be a hard ti!e, that !aybe so!e o the brothers and sisters had orgotten the sacredness o all things and all the hu!an beings were going to su er or this on the :arth"

)o tribes began to send #eo#le to the !ounds to ha%e !issions to try to igure out how they could sur%i%e" At that ti!e there were 1==,=== cities in the 3ississi##i Valley alone,

called the !ound ci%ili-ationB cities built on great !ounds"

Those !ounds are still there" I you e%er go out to ,hio or the 3ississi##i Valley, they're tourist attractions now" There was 1==,=== cities o 0ati%e #eo#le and they were wondering how they could sur%i%e"

They began to try to learn to li%e o the land because they knew a hard ti!e was going to co!e" They began to send #eo#le to ha%e %isions to see how we could sur%i%e this ti!e"

8eo#le ca!e on the east coast and they went across this land to the east and they were told in the #ro#hecies that we should try to re!ind all the #eo#le that would co!e here o the sacredness o all things" I we could do that, then there would be #eace on :arth"

&ut i we did not do that, when the roads went clear ro! east to west, and when the other races and colors o the :arth had walked clear across this land, i by that ti!e we had not co!e together as a hu!an a!ily, the (reat )#irit would grab the earth with his hand and shake it"

And so i you read the treaty negotiations ro! 1ed Cacket o the )iA 0ations on the east coast o this land clear to Chie Cose#h and Chie )eattle on the west coast o this land, they all said the sa!e thing" Chie Cose#h said, +I accord you the right, and I ho#e you accord !e the right, to li%e in this land"+ Always we were trying to li%e together"

&ut instead o li%ing together, you all know there was se#aration, there was segregation" They se#arated the racesB they se#arated the Indians, and they se#arated the blacks" In the state o $ashington it was against the law or an Asian to !arry a white #erson u# until not too long ago" There was se#aration"

)o when they got to the west coast o this land the elders that were !ade aware o these #ro#hecies said they would then begin to build a black ribbon" And on this black ribbon there would !o%e a bug" And when you begin to see this bug !o%ing on the land, that was the sign or the First )haking o the :arth"

The First )haking o the :arth would be so %iolent that this bug would be shaken o the earth into the air and it would begin to !o%e and ly in the air" And by the end o this shaking this bug will be in the air around the world"

&ehind it would be a trail o dirt and e%entually the whole sky o the entire earth would beco!e dirty ro! these trails o dirt, and this would cause !any diseases that would get !ore and !ore co!#licated" )o the bug !o%ing on the land, o course I it's easy to see now"

In 19=8 the 3odel-T Ford was !ass #roduced or the irst ti!e" )o the elders knew the First )haking o the :arth was about to co!e about that's the First $orld $ar" In the First $orld $ar the air#lane ca!e into wide usage or the irst ti!e" That was that bug !o%ing into the sky" And so they knew so!ething %ery i!#ortant would ha##en"

There would be an atte!#t to !ake #eace on earth on the west coast o this land and so the elders began to watch or this" They began to hear that there was going to be a >eague o 0ations in )an Francisco so the elders gathered in Ari-ona around 19<= or so and they wrote a letter to $oodrow $ilson"

They asked i the Indian #eo#le could be included in the >eague o 0ations" At that ti!e the /nited )tates )u#re!e Court had held that a reser%ation is a se#arate and se!iso%ereign nation, not a #art o the /nited )tates but #rotected by it" This beca!e a concern because #eo#le didn't want the reser%ations to beco!e !ore and !ore se#arate"

They didn't want the! to be considered nations" )o they did not write back and the 0ati%e #eo#le were le t out o the >eague o 0ations, so that circle was inco!#lete" In the >eague o 0ations circle there was a southern door, the yellow #eo#le6 there was a western door, the black #eo#le6 there was a northern door, the white #eo#le6 but the eastern door was not attended"

The elders knew that #eace would not co!e on the earth until the circle o hu!anity is co!#lete, until all the our colors sat in the circle and shared their teachings, then #eace would co!e on earth"

)o they knew things would ha##en" Things would s#eed u# a little bit" There would be a cobweb built around the earth, and #eo#le would talk across this cobweb" $hen this talking cobweb, the tele#hone, was built around the earth, a sign o li e would a##ear in the east, but it would tilt and bring death" It would co!e with the sun"

&ut the sun itsel would rise one day not in the east but in the west" )o the elders said when you see the sun rising in the east and you see the sign o li e re%ersed and tilted in the east, you know that the (reat .eath is to co!e u#on the earth, and now the (reat )#irit will grab the earth again in *is hand and shake it and this shaking will be worse than the irst"

)o the sign o li e re%ersed and tilted, we call that the )wastika, and the rising sun in the east was the rising sun o Ca#an" These two sy!bols are car%ed in stone in Ari-ona" $hen the elders saw these two lags, these were the signs that the earth was to be shaken again"

The worse !isuse o the (uardianshi# o the ire is called the +gourd o ashes+" They said the gourd o ashes will all ro! the air" It will !ake the #eo#le like blades o grass in the #rairie ire and things will not grow or !any seasons" I saw on tele%ision not too long ago that they were talking about the ato!ic bo!b, the gourd o ashes"

They said it was the best-ke#t secret in the history o the /nited )tates", The elders wanted to s#eak about it in 19<=" They would ha%e s#oken o it and oretold it's co!ing i they could ha%e entered into the >eague o 0ations" The elders tried to contact 8resident 1oose%elt and ask hi! not to use the gourd o ashes because it would ha%e a great e ect on the earth and e%entually cause e%en greater destruction and a the Third )haking o the :arth, the Third $orld $ar" I'll get to that in a ew !inutes"

)o they knew a ter the )econd )haking o the :arth when they saw the gourd o ashes all ro! the sky then there would be an atte!#t to !ake #eace on the other side o this land"

And because the #eace atte!#t on the west coast had ailed, they would build a s#ecial house on the east coast o this Turtle Island, and all the nations and #eo#les o the earth

would co!e to this house and it would be called the *ouse o 3ica and it would shine like the !ica on the desert shines"

)o the elders began to see they were building the /nited 0ations !ade out o glass that re lects like the !ica on the desert so they knew this was the *ouse o !ica and all the #eo#les o the earth should go to it"
