Let us pray that our nation will respect our history and culture throughout the next generation.
May the universe open up and the Great Spirit look upon our Mother Earth, so that the vision of life will be released from the East, and the sacred sweet grass will cleanse our children. Then the eagle will soar across this land and watch over our growing nation.
Now, our universe is alive and our grandmother comes from the South and nourishes us with love and passion, as we use our sacred medicine, sage.
Let us pray that our families, community, country and world give emotional, physical, and spiritual strength to our culture. May our great-grandmother heal the sick and deliver the seeds of enlightenment to our unknown, becoming of our next generation.
Then, the universe expands and a spirit guide from the West, the black bear comes, with his sacred medicine, cedar. He ponders the earth and wanders the sacred ground in order to learn the secrets of life, so that we may teach the young of old ways. Then the young will grow in wisdom and become messengers who will carry the sacred bundles on to future generations, keeping the circle strong.
So now, may all the universe be cleansed together, nation after nation , and may the strength of the polar bear from the North, with its sacred medicine, fungus, enhance our Indian family, keeping us united in the spirit and free from fear. Let us stand proud, that our Indian people be educated in our language, way of life, and beliefs for generations to come.
