A MESSAGE FROM DENNIS BANKS |
Since the beginning, Native Peoples lived a life of being in harmony with all that surrounds us. It is a belief that all humankind are related to each other. Each has a purpose, spirit and sacredness. It is an understanding with the Great Spirit or Creator that we will follow these ways. And in this understanding we believe we are related to all other living species: the Winged Ones, the Four-leggeds, all Plantlife, and all other elements of Life, Air ~ Fire ~ Water. The Sun, Moon and Stars are there to guide us.
The Creator also gave us special instructions on how to live with one another, how the women are to care for the future generations, how the men are to provide for the generations today & tomorrow.
These instructions & understandings have been the base of our spiritual ways ~ we have come to practice them daily. This philosophy has endured and cared for us, and we shall never abandon it.
Never!
