Your anger is very palpable Day, and I'm sure it's born from great injustice. I feel that most here on Avalon are spiritual people who seek greater understanding and truth. They are not trying to disrespect your culture or anyone's belief system.

I was raised Roman Catholic, my step father adopted me when I was 13 and he is of Mayan descent. This helped lead me to looking into native spirituality. I found immense love and understanding in a spirit filled Lutheran Church, followed my path into Messianic Judaism and gained much understanding of the traditions, idioms, and messages only found if seeing things from that understanding. I have been fortunate to study with and fellowship with people of divergent spiritual paths. All of this searching has brought me to a place of appreciation for each path and a feeling of ultimate unity and oneness of spirit in the ultimate creator God/dess.

Something that does bother me, and maybe it shouldn't, but I sense a great disrespect and almost vehement hatred toward "white" people and their seeking of truth. A thousand good deeds go unheralded, while one bad deed is amplified and that is all people seem to see. Truth is the same no matter the religion, language, race, culture.

I loved the heartbeat drumming meditation circle. How the rythmic pounding in time to a heartbeat aided in going deeper on a spirit journey. I loved saying the rosary as a meditative tool and discovering how it was not a chore of saying 10 Hail Mary's, an Our Father, Glory be, but a method to disconnect from out babbling mind and go into spirit and commune with God. So many methods for connecting are out there, and yet some want to focus on one path is the right way and all other paths are wrong and lead to darkness. I am not saying you are judging others paths Day, for I see your hurt and anger over some abusing the wisdom and kindness of the Native American Path to make a buck. But, there is this tone on many threads of putting down those who are of a "white" heritage who have given many wonderful things to the world, and followed God as best they could.

Methods of prayer, dances, ritual and ceremonies are all wonderful things to me if they bring me to a place of Divine oneness, and an ability to express love to all that is. I care not what culture brought them about, for I love and respect them all.
