Native American Heritage Month

Revitalizing Indigenous Connections

Quotation #614  The Sacred Hoop   Black Elk, Oglala Lakota (Sioux)

      in Singing the Living Tradition

Then I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round beneath
me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than
I can tell, and I understood more than I saw. For I was seeing in the
sacred manner the shape of all things of the spirit, and the shapes as they
must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my
people was one of many hoops that make one circle, wide as daylight and
starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all
the children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy.

Welcome Song      “We Are a Circle”        (sing three times)          Rick
Hamouris

    We are a circle within a circle, with no beginning, and never ending.
