"We must remember that the heart of our religion is alive and that each
person has the ability within to awaken and walk in a sacred manner."
---- Thomas Yellowtail, CROW
The Native Spirituality is full of life. When we seek it we become
alive. Even if we have gone astray and have conducted ourselves in a
bad way, we can look within and have a new awakening to life. Maybe we
have drunk too much alcohol; maybe we have cheated on our spouse; maybe
we have done things that make us feel guilty and ashamed. If we look
outside ourselves, we will not find life; if we look inside, we will
find life. Anytime we choose to change our lives, we only need to look
inside. How do we do this? Take some sage and light it, close your eyes
and say to the Great Sirit, I'm tired, I need your help. Please help me
change.
Great Spirit, I know you exist inside of myself. Let me awaken to your
teachings
