As
Eagles Soar
Eagles soar more surely than we
walk--
but even so we are eagles in spirit. Physical wings
are not so important to us if we can free our spirits
to soar.
As a symbol of freedom, the eagle builds its nests higher than any other nests and its eyes have
vision that can survey anything moving far below. It sets its wings to catch the wind and its flight is
graceful and beautiful. Unlike us, it takes time to renew and restore--even its beak is renewed and its
old feathers replaced with new ones.
When we set our minds and spirits to do something, nothing can bring us down. But rest
and renewal are necessary--and never just luxuries to be avoided.
I am here by the will of the Great Spirit, and by His will I am chief.
SITTING BULL~SIOUX
I am blind and do not see the things of this world; but when the light comes from Above, it enlightens my heart and I can see, for the Eye of my heart sees everything. The heart is a sanctuary at the center of which there is a little space, wherein the Great Spirit dwells, and this is the Eye. This is the Eye of the Great Spirit by which He sees all things, and through which we see Him...In order to know the center of the heart where the Great Spirit dwells, you must be pure and good, and live in the manner that the Great Spirit taught us.
The man who is thus pure contains the Universe in the pocket of
his heart."
--Black Elk, traditional Oglala Lakota,
Out of the Indian approach to life, there came a great freedom - an intense and absorbing love for the nature; a respect for life; enriching faith in a Supreme Power and principles of truth, honesty, generosity, equity and brotherhood as a guide to mundane relations
Luther Standing Bear
"The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people....... when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us.
