INDIAN DAYS & LEGEND OF THE WHITE BUFFALO

AUGUST 2, 2012

Due to some computer challenges, we just got the computer back. This message was saved on the desktop. A watcher name Happy Trails sent us these news clips below a few weeks ago. The Creator keeps giving us signs of hope and a glorious future, in spite of the constant disturbing news in the media.

I have many fond memories of living among the Lakota Sioux in the Indian Reservations of South Dakota, among the Dakota people of North Dakota and many other tribes also. I shall never forget the time when some of my First Nations brothers had come from a hunt and they had gotten a deer. In those days, there wasn't much to eat, if it wasn't hunted or in a can; besides delicious fry bread. As several of us sat around the kitchen table eating our fry bread with tea, we watched through the window some of the men prepare the deer. A sister came excitedly into the kitchen, she plopped down a piece of red, warm flesh, pull out the salt, pepper and small cutting knives; it was the kidney. Everyone always forgot that I was not a meat-eater, they insisted eating the raw kidney from a fresh kill was suppose to have many powerful meanings and was believed to be very good for the body. I am sure it was, although, I never had the personal experience. I told them they could surround me, lay hands on me and impart what they had received and I would receive it through them. However, I think I did kinda master the fry bread; I was often told mine was just as good or better that the full-bloods. I humbly had to agree.

Although it seems like several lifetimes ago, I yet remember many of the stories told to me by the Elders and others, as we often sat eating fry bread and drinking tea, staring out at the barren plains. It was also a very spiritual time, as I had to begin my deprogramming process from many of the fear based distortions of western Christianity about seemingly "different beliefs." It was during this time, I learned the power of a Vision Quest. I heard the stories of the expectation of the coming white buffalo (s) and what it meant for mankind and was able to see the similarity between many teachings of the old ways and western Christianity.

To Native Americans, the Bison or American Buffalo was a symbol of sacred life and abundance. This importance and symbolism was created from legend: In GOSHEN Connecticut, Bison No. 7 on Peter Fay’s farm gave birth to a white, 30-pound bull calf a month ago, it made the Fay farm below Mohawk Mountain, for the moment at least, the unlikely epicenter of the bison universe. (I highlighted some of the prophetic clues that this story is load with in the sentence above).

SACRED WHITE BUFFALO BORN IN CONNECTICUT

One summer a long time ago, the seven sacred council fires of the Lakota Sioux came together and camped. The sun was strong and the people were starving for there was no game. Two young men went out to hunt in the Black Hills of South Dakota.

Along the way, a beautiful young woman dressed in white appeared to the warriors and said, "Return to your people and tell them I am coming." This holy woman presented the Lakota people with the sacred pipe which showed how all things were connected. She taught the Lakota people the mysteries of the earth. She taught them to pray and follow the proper path while on earth. As the woman left the tribe, she rolled upon the earth four times, changing color each time, and finally turning into a white buffalo calf. Then she disappeared. Almost at the same time as her leaving, great herds of buffalo could be seen surrounding the camps. It is said that after that day, the Lakota honored their pipe, and buffalo were plentiful.

The Native Americans see the birth of a white buffalo calf as the most significant of prophetic signs."The arrival of the white buffalo is like the second coming of Christ," says Floyd Hand Looks For Buffalo, an Oglala Medicine Man from Pine Ridge, South Dakota. "It will bring about purity of mind, body, and spirit and unify all nations—black, red, yellow, and white." He sees the birth of a white calf as an omen because they happen in the most unexpected places and often among the poorest people in the nation. The birth of the sacred white buffalo provides those within the Native American community with a sense of hope and an indication that good times are to come.

DID YOU REALIZE THAT THE 1st NATIONS TRIBES (NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS) KNEW THE SACRED NAME OF GOD - YHWH & OFTEN SANG IT LONG BEFORE CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS ARRIVED - AND YET DO TODAY?

Did some of the "authentic" ancient tribes of northern Israel find their way to another promise land later called America? How did they learn ancient Hebrew? Why was the true history of indigenous people erased and replaced with a manufactured history? Most would be amazed at the similarity between ancient Hebrew culture/religion and Native American religion and symbolism.
