Introduction

Napi Mephisto is an idea/persona/invention based in a social phenomena

little explored by either civilization in the conflict between Red & White.

That is, the possibilities of discovering a higher order Mtis mentality in a

sort of reversed experience; where Native American ideation corrupts the

Western culture as opposed to past history of almost exclusively the other

direction being the case.

Napis persona is, however, more than conjured from imagination; his

lessons are based in a close work of many years observing and exploring

ideas within the Native nations and then taking those ideas into the exterior

world, to see how they might be functionally integrated to the DNA of the

aggressive society which had sought to destroy those very ideas. Lets call

Napi a scientist exploring social GMO. Except his social engineering sets

out to co-opt the destructive mentality of a culture whose science is too

stupid to understand it is stupid. Western science cannot grasp is itculturally shaped by, and mimics, the religion of the civilization that it is

born of; essentially a hierarchy with a dogma and narrow rut of inquiry.

All that is required of appreciating the persona Napi is to understand the

dominant culture of this world is failing life -for all of us- and to expect the

leadership of the culture destroying us ALL (not just the indigenous these

days) is capable of saving us, is the greatest of oxymoron. Its not working.

A Native Mephistopheles

Napi Mephisto inherited his surname from the Jesuits who knew his

ancestor, did not like him, and assigned this shamans denigrating

sobriquet to his progeny in perpetuity: when called upon by the governmentto create an official membership enrollment list as the several conquered

tribes were reorganized into legal entities

The Mephisto line then fell to the policy foisted upon Indians by the

government that a minimum !of his tribes established bloodline would be

required to have membership and lacking that, the Mephistos were native

blood of several tribes without !blood of any, this native family was

persistently persecuted or harassed and jailed by the Indian Police, for

being Indians without membership on the reservation

Banished by Native America, they settled in an area adjacent to, but off of

the reservation. Now persistently persecuted for fact of being Indian off the

reservation, they were still frequently arrested and jailed despite the fact

there WAS no reservation that would take in the Mephistos

Fate further assimilated each subsequent generation into the White blood

surrounding them, and finally the Mephisto line had settled down to

become what at least appeared to be White

With this ancestral history behind him, Napi Mephisto grew up Indian,

nonetheless. How could this happen? Habit.

Napi, as his father and forefathers before him, was raised to be open to the

mysteries of the natural world and its manifestations, to be sensitive,

aware of the manifold possibilities of seeing the world, to be free and

unhampered in ones thinking, to be generous and kind in regard to others,

to let everything have its own voice

In effect, a perfect absurdity to the Whiteman. To Napi, accordingly, as well

as to the many other now invisible Indians grown up in the surrounding

forest with near identical backgrounds, his surrounding world of the Whites,

which actually seemed to believe he was one of them, was actually beheld

as absurd in turn


4/39

Rather than open to the mysteries of the natural world surrounding them,

these real Whites beat the shit of the environment, just like they beat their

kids, desensitizing them, beat them for freethinking, were selfish as hell in

regards to their children by banishing them from their presence to do adultthings and constantly made promises that were broken almost as quickly

as stated, and by god as for the everything having its own voice thing,

these people would cut off your head if you lifted it up to speak as quick as

they were to smack a childs fingers with a ruler

In this off the reservation White world, it was the kids who were the Indians.

And the amazing thing was the Whites not realizing what the kids know.

Because the kids fear the adults, they conceal their world from the adults.

That is exactly why the Shaman learned to conceal his world from theChristian. Fear of these peoples violence. And that had everything to do

with the new dilemma in Napi Mephistos life. It was his own native raised

kid, Stone Child

On teaching Children 1

Grandpa, tell me a story! The nine year old drew his legs up to his chest,

arms folded across just below the knees, and leaned against the side of theold native sun priest while feeing secure, equal. The old man smiled ever

so softly at Stone Child, a rare young one raised as he had been, in the old

ways. The Eagle, the old mans name, enjoyed visiting the boys father as

much for the chance to spend time with this young one, as for any

ostensible reason for this frequent trip a few miles west of the reservation:

whether to visit with Stone Childs father concerning his considerable

knowledge of the mysteries, gather sacred or medicinal herbs with him in

this pristine wilderness location or just to say hello to one of his most

valued friends and swap stories.

The old man asked Stone Child What is the season? Stone Child did not

hesitate It is the Moon of the Earth Spirits Determined Journey of Return.

The old man was pleased. So now, tell me which kind of story you are

allowed to hear from me. Stone Child thought for a moment and then


5/39

stated How Life Happens. The old man began Ok, one time it happened

like this

In the long ago, Man was at a great disadvantage to Woman. She could

drop Man dead just by giving him a mean look. Stone Childs eyes wentwide. So things werent too good for us. And it wasnt good for Woman

either because she depends on Man, and Man was getting kind of scarce.

So Woman gathered herself and discussed what could be done about

Mans stupid stuff, this is what had kept getting us dropped dead. So

Woman had her discussion with herself and she figured some things out..

First Woman had to look at Man as different. Because Man is only half

Man. Stone Child looked puzzled, something the old man noticed. What

makes Man different is his father Sun. Woman has always been onlyEarth the look of puzzlement began to go out of Stone Childs face and

she always knew how to live here in the correct way. Now, if Man would

discover this, there would be no more stupid stuff and Woman would stop

giving Man the mean looks. So here is what Woman figured out for Man.

Stone Child listened intently to what followed.

The Sweat Lodge is the gift of the Holy Woman to Man. In the long ago

when Man became the guest of the feminine on this planet that is a Sacred

Woman, he was given the Sweat Lodge to cleanse his body because hehas no natural cycle as a child of the Sun. Also the Sweat Lodge gave him

the Womans calendar from the Suns sacred sister (or wife), the Moon, to

observe the cycle of the seasons. The primary law most importantly related

to this is to always remember that for a man to harm a woman is to violate

the sacred life giving hospitality that is holy, we can only harm our human

spirit this way and that is why we, as men, are never to be abusive to

women or nature, and because we live our lives that way, the women gift

us with the love and respect that is due to this sacred service we are here

to perform.

Our cycle of life is reflected in the sacred gifts we give to the holy

relationship between the Sun and the Moon, it represents the responsible

respect shown between brother and sister for the unmarried, and between

husband and wife it is for those who love in that way. The yellow cloth is

given to the southeast for the golden light that is the innocence of youth,


6/39

always to be treated with only kindness, the red cloth is given to the

southwest for the holy life-giving maturity of the sacred women that bear

us, these are the people we protect, the blue cloth is given to the northwest

that prepares us to be received by the sacred night sky that takes us in

holiness at our end, because we have lived right, and the white cloth givento the Northeast is the clean environment of the souls received by the

ancestors because we lived our lives responsibly according to these sacred

teachings. In the old times these gifts of cloth would have been the four

colors of the sacred paints and they also represent the colors of Man and

the Seasons. The Red and the Blue, separately taken together, also are the

Earth and the Sky, Woman, Man, and Marriage.

The Earth, the Sun, the Moon and the Stars, also the other Planets,

Comets and Meteors are the Gods in the sense of a metaphor that onlystates: we are a part of everything that is, and everything that is, is

embodied in us no differently than other animal forms, even the trees

and the living stones are essentially people, no different than you or I, all

are sacred expressions of the mystery of creation that manifests in

everything, all reality is in some sense seen as a part of this dream of our

existing. This dream is meant to be beautiful for us as the human people

and we are to meant to live our lives in such a way that strives for a clean

reality, to become all that is the best possible expression of the creation

dreaming us: We are meant to manifest as a Beautiful People

On teaching children 2

Stone Child had lost grandpa to the vagaries of age, but now was

instructed by his uncle Na Too Auts, also a Priest of the Sun

Before Stone Childs birth, his father had returned from Vietnam and

disappeared deep into Indian Country for years, returning to his paternal

roots

Subsequently, the boy had all his life known Grandpa, the old Native

Priest that had also taught his father, and after Grandpa had died, Stone

Childs adoptive uncle, Na Too Auts, had taken over the boys Native

education


7/39

The boy was home schooled in the simplest basics, the alphabet, phonetic

spelling with no rote memory or proper spelling drills, simple addition,

subtraction, multiplication, division, and basic fractions and percentages

and other than this, the main focus, the real focus, was discovery in the

natural world of the wilderness surrounding him, to age ten

Always, he had been told that at this age, ten years, everything having to

do with his education would change, and it would get serious

Age ten had arrived, Grandpa had been gone for nearly a year, and Na Too

Auts came to visit Stone Child

Na too Auts spoke to Stone Child: Little brother, for the next four years you

will be making the journey to Manhood. Today I will give to you one of thegreat mysteries of life you must understand to make this journey. But first

you must tell me the rule attending the sacred teaching

Stone Child began: Everything is ceremony, everything that you will show

me. And none of it can be repeated outside of ceremony

Na Too Auts: Where is ceremony?

Stone Child: Ceremony lives in the hearts and minds of the real people. It iseverywhere

Na Too Auts: Name the real people closest to you.

Stone Child: For me, the Real People are the living Stones. They are the

Aspen that surrounds the Stones. Real People are the grasses that cover

the open space inside the circle of the aspen grove. It is the Raven who

gathers herself on the meadow around the stone inside this aspen circle

every fall. These are my real people

Na Too Auts: And who are you?

Stone Child: I am all of these

Na Too Auts, quietly: Very good


8/39

Na Too Auts then asked Stone Child: Who is Niitssitapi?

The boy replied: We are Niitssitapi

Na Too Auts: Yes, this is true. And just what is the precise meaning of

Niitssitapi?

Stone Child: Human Dignity

Again the Sun Priest quietly acknowledged the answer with a soft, matter of

fact: Very good

The theory of differentiation and the androgynous birth of consciousness innative America.. first ever translation to western terms, the creation of the

Trickster, the native Mephisto, knowledge previously only observed by

western science as simplistic anthropomorphisms

Na Too Auts began the lesson:

Thunder abducted the wife of the Half Being, Man, her name is Niitssitapi.

Man was crying and the other beings noticed. They gathered among

themselves and asked why is Man so pitiful? The sound of his weepingwas very disturbing

When Bear explained the cause of Mans grief, everyone seemed to

become afraid. There was no question Niitssitapi had to be rescued,

because until she was returned to Man, everyones life was hanging in the

balance. But who would go against Thunder?

This question was put to another Half Being, Eagle, who knew the road to,

and sometimes shared Thunders realm in the sky. These two hadconsulted together in the past

Eagle said: It cannot be me, for I am Thunders relation. Let it be Raven

who corrects my cousins wrong


9/39

Raven knew the trail to Thunders realm as well, however she would not go

there. But Raven stated to Eagle: I will do it. First you must pass along a

message, from me to Thunder, you will be my Runner

Eagle agreed This, I am allowed to do

Raven then stated: I must go to my lodge, I will not be prepared until the

afternoon of the fifth Man Day. Eagle, you must find me then, alone, on the

prairie between the meeting place of the Old Man and Lakes Inside Rivers

These Peoples then dispersed and Raven went home to make ceremony

and paint a glyph on a bit of Aspen bark

Sak Wo Ma Oui Aki Kwan stood alone on the prairie with her back to therivers place of coming together. Eagle arrived at the appointed time and

circled above, calling out five times EeKiii: Have you seen Raven?

The Woman Warrior, her Black, Black hair turned loose in the wind, called

back to Eagle: Look at the feather tied upon the left side of my glory in this

wind, for I AM Raven!

Eagle then landed at the womans feet. He said: Your ceremony is strong.

But I will not warn my cousin Thunder

Raven then gave the painted glyph to Eagle with the warning: Do not look

at this, it would destroy you. When you have delivered it to Thunder, quickly

move to the side, before he can have the chance to clearly see it. That is all

Eagle said nothing, but took off into the sky with the glyph grasped in his

talons, his great wings working hard into the climbing circle, until a thermal

updraft lifted him high, soaring to a speck and then finally, out of sight

Soon, very soon after Eagle had gone out of view, a great Black Boiling

Cloud began forming before Sak Wo Ma Oui Aki Kwan: The Woman Who

Stood Alone and Challenged the Enemy

Thunders great rage of wind at this Woman was terrifying to behold, but

Raven stood her ground against it. When he came into range, Thunder


10/39

drew arrows from his quiver and shot them from his bow, the arrows strikes

against the ground were deafening and each one missed!

Raven, now a woman, now a bird, woman-bird, woman-bird, enraged

Thunder as never before, Thunder repeatedly fired at a woman, but only tosee his strikes evaded by a bird that hopped!

Raven, facing Thunder, had hopped forward one hop, to the south, with

each arrow Thunder had sent at her. As she hopped farther and farther

away from the place where the rivers joined, she felt Ichs Stui approaching

from behind her, and Thunder, whose rage was so great, did not notice

Ichs Stuis icy hand took the remaining arrows from Thunders quiver and

the fight was over. Raven had won. Now they had to sit together, Sak WoMa Oui Aki Kwan, Ichs Stui, and Thunder, where the Old Man and Lakes

Inside rivers meet, and make the Peace

Terms of the peace

Sak Wo Ma Oui Aki Kwan sat in the west, looking into the east, Ichs Stui

sat in the north, looking into the south and Thunder sat in the east, looking

into the west. The south stood open to this lodge they created with their

positions

The protocol called for Sak Wo Ma Oui Aki Kwan to speak, Thunder did not

like it but he had no choice, for the Woman Warrior was victor. She first

placed a tanned Elk skin bag on the prairie grass before Ichs Stui and then

the Woman Warrior spoke to Thunder: I have brought this Ceremonial

Stone, a gift to you from Raven handed through my Ceremony and Vision,

those things preparing me for this fight, now, to make this peace. It is in the

shape of the Man Being when he is a Creator. This is to remind you,

Thunder, Niitssitapi is forever free to make her own choice of her mate

With these words, the Woman Warrior changed in her body and became

pregnant. Her beauty softened. The anger went out of Thunders face. He

felt compassion and a brothers love for Niitssitapi as he gazed at her

sitting across from him


11/39

Now, as Niitssitapi, she continued: I give this Stone into the keeping of Ichs

Stui, on your behalf, my half brother, he will keep it safely for you in his

winter home

Each Moon of the Willows Return, Ichs Stui will bring out this Stone andyou will use it in ceremony, to commemorate this meeting, and my right to

live in Human Dignity, and you will commemorate all of my future childrens

right to live in Human Dignity, whether my Woman children or my Half Man

Being children. Each Moon of the Ripened Cherries, Ichs Stui, whom you

cannot stand against, will come and collect this Ceremonial Stone for safe

keeping and I will thank Raven who will gather herself again and hop south

to remind you

Stone Child: What was the Glyph?

Na Too Auts smiled and said: If you havent figured it out by then, you can

ask me you are fourteen

Niitssitapi, pregnant from her abduction and rape by Thunder, and her

subsequent consensual relationship to Man with the gift of peace, gave

birth to Ego and Self-Awareness, the twins Napi Au Pee Cee and Napi Na

Too Auts. Each of the same mind and power, Napi Au Pee Cee spends

eternity terrorizing the native world, whereas Napi Na Too Auts protects theNative World. Napi Na Too Auts is the First Man to live in Human Dignity,

the first Man Half Being or child of the Light, whereas Napi Au Pee Cee is

the Outcast, the Trickster, the Native American Fuck-Up God, the Divine

Rapist, the evil Thunder was forced to abandon at the making of the peace.

Napi Na Too Auts is everything a Native man should hope to become, Napi

Au Pee Cee is everything a Native man is taught never to be and would be

banished for becoming. Napi Na Too Auts is Beauty and Truth. Napi Au Pee

Cee is the male Mono-Sexual Erection of the Ego which underlies all form

of Rape, this was the glyph Raven had painted on the bit of Aspen bark, thesymbolic truth which had put Thunder, the Logos, the Bachelor Mind, into

blind fury


12/39


Napi called Stone Child over and said Stone Child, lets take a few

minutes, Im asking for just a bit of your time, because we have to prepare

for the change in your home schooling I have long told you would one daycome

The boy sat beside his father with an attentive look

Napi continued: Do you recall our Big Adventure?

The boys expression was an immediate warm smile: Of course!

Napi was referring to the time when Stone Child was three years of ageand they had packed the VW camper van and taken off to see the world

together. Each night after a day of travel and stops to see things, Napi

would ask Stone Child if he was ready to go home or wanted another

adventure. On each occasion the boy had opted for another days travel

and sightseeing. Napi would bring out the road map, explain what was in

reach the next day and ask Stone Child which direction to take

Their course took them throughout the Pacific Northwest, across the Puget

Sound on the ferry, to the Oregon Coast for walks on the deserted beachwhere the surf met the forest and to the Aquarium, to the Sea Lion Caves in

California, and then back inland to the Modoc Caves of Captain Jacks

stronghold, over to Crater Lake, north again to Seattle to Pike Street

Market, on the Ferry again to Whidbey Island, back to the Olympic National

Park, off to the Columbia Gorge until one evening Napi was still driving

and Stone Child had fallen asleep and Napi drove most of the night

Stone Child woke up in his bed at home: as though from a wonderful dream

Napi said I have given to you your childhood, I never took it away. I have

never broken a promise to you. I did not make many promises, but when I

had, I kept them. Your life to now has belonged to you, it has been a

journey of discovery, whether on our big adventure and travels since, our

stays in Indian Country or here in the forest at home. But I have told you

many times this freedom would one day change


13/39

Stone Child had a serious, but not unfriendly or disappointed look

Napi then said: Tomorrow that freedom mostly goes away, and the little bit

of study we have worked on is going to be the main thing we pay attentionto for quite a long time

Stone Child answered with a single word: Ok


His father had told Stone Child he would begin his education the next

morning. When Stone Child was roused from his sleep at 6:AM and told to

shower, he did so. Then Stone Child was told to run the property boundarywith his soccer ball on his left foot only, five laps, he did that. After breakfast

at 7:00, Napi brought out Websters Encyclopedic Dictionary of the English

Language and the 800 page Washington Irving historical fiction Astoria

Goldsmith in the original 1857 edition and set them together on the kitchen

table with a ruled notebook and pencils

Napi told Stone Child: This is a great and wonderful book, but you will not

understand most of it right away. Understanding what you read just now is

not the point. The point is learning vocabulary. It has many, many shortchapters. At the end of each chapter you must choose five words you did

not know and look those words up in this dictionary. I want you to write

what each of those five words mean in this notebook together with the

chapter number. You will be doing this for two hours of each weekday

morning except Mondays and Fridays, for the next few years. Monday

mornings you will study with the monks at the Buddhist temple in town and

in the afternoon you will be doing community service work I have arranged

for you, caring for injured animals. I have found you a math tutor for Friday

mornings. Friday afternoons you will have scientific field trips. Tuesday,Wednesday and Thursday afternoons, depending on the lesson plans I will

devise, you will study either History, Civilization, Culture, and the Physical

or the Social Sciences

It had actually been Stone Child who had chosen Buddhism. Not long

before Napi had said to Stone Child: I have raised you Indian, you have


14/39

grown up in the wild with Grandpa explaining the many Indian

understandings of our life. But now we must devise you a mask. Because

Indians are never really accepted out there in the bigger world, people have

always either been afraid of us, or cannot understand us. Anyway, we dont

even look like Indians if you had ever stopped and thought about it. Sosometimes we need to be able to be something people are not afraid of,

because the people beyond the forest are often afraid of what does not fit

their ideas. So we have to make ourselves fit

Napi had then explained to Stone Child the tenants of the major religions

Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and Buddhism. Stone Child, as Napi had

expected, did not hesitate for a moment and stated: I am Buddhist. It was

an unequivocal statement. But then Buddhism, as Napis friend and action

anthropologist Karl had once stated, only differed from the Native Indianperception of our existence in the reincarnation ideas of the transmigration

of the soul and the Buddhist prohibition for lay people the more general

Indian practice of external meditation. Strip away some of the various

superficial cultural influences of the societies in which they were immersed

and the Blackfeet and Cheyenne tribes of Indians and a high form of

Theravada Buddhism would practically see many of the principle ideas of

our existence in identical terms

Napi had then brought out a newspaper article about the new Buddhisttemple in town and Stone Child had picked up the phone, called the temple

abbot and made an appointment to meet. A few days later Napi had driven

Stone Child to the temple to meet the abbot

Red Indian, White Indian

Napi recalled the time in Vietnam he had wandered around the small

mountain with Buddhist monuments and come upon a blind beggar whose

face had been burned away by napalm. Without thinking, he took the onlycoin in his pocket, his lucky I will see home again USA quarter, and

dropped it into the tin cup and instantly regretted the thoughtless act when

he heard the sound of joy coming from the face without nose, eyes or lips

as the beggar fingered what must have indeed seemed like gold but in fact

was worthless in the foreign war zone


15/39

That act bothered Napi for years, the beggar would believe for the rest of

his life (if his could be called a life) he had been cheated when the hard,

heavy (compared to the zinc Vietnamese) coin was collected and nothing

had come of it. Although Napi did survive to return to the USA, his lucky

quarter did not help him survive to see home: which had become a livingcartoon he no longer believed in

Napi had tried work, in the sawmills of the pacific northwest, he had tried

college, he had tried religion, but Napi had become a restless soul that

could not shake the violence of man on man he had witnessed in the war.

Everything was cynical, animated living cynicism had become his life

experience. People were animated cartoons, institutions all became

amoebas of hypocrisies with gelatinous tentacles that attempted to ensnare

him. Napi gave up. He went to stay in the forest where he had grown up, tolive in poverty

One day a short but powerfully built Indian knocked on Napis door.

Grandpa wanted to collect medicines from nature and Napis was a perfect

location to park his car and search out the sacred healing plants. Napi was

hospitable, he invited Grandpa in for coffee and they visited

Like the other Indians Napi had met, Grandpa was open and honest and

soon they were discussing everything imaginable, and not long after, Napiwas learning about the traditional Indian medicines, because Napi and

Grandpa had become friends

Napi learned many things from simply observing and asking questions later

on, such as the times Grandpa only marked certain plants locations and

returned later on with a woman who would actually harvest the medicines.

This was always the case when the root was to be used rather than the

above the ground herb

Grandpa explained the plants had male and female roles in nature and it

was a matter of respect. If the plant was respected, it would surrender the

healing qualities, but always in the case of the roots, the plants only

responded to a woman who lived a clean life, a woman who had a certain

mentality from living in the proper way. Only women could prepare these

roots


16/39

Napi did not question any explanation after an initial inquiry, he understood

Grandpa always gave answers and explanations that eventually made

sense as Napi saw larger pieces of the puzzle begin to fall into place over

time

Napi began to see everything is related, in the sense of relationships in

Quantum Mechanics, as the Native principle underlying many things

Grandpa had showed him

Once two particles are associated, they become forever associated, no

matter if they are separated by a universe in time and space. It appeared

this was an important principle in the pre-Columbian knowledge of native

healing

Grandpa was a Ghost Medewiwin and explained how that worked in a way

that seemed to relate to the alternate dimensions in String Theory

But it was Grandpas further explanation of this, Mans relationship to time,

that made the most sense. This was uncharted territory in Western

Science. Yet Grandpa explained it in such a way that the simple sensibility

of what he was saying had to be credible. It explained so many things one

witnessed in ones surrounding experience, by simply observing the world,nature and people

This is why the old Indian people kept trying to say archaeology was wrong,

dangerous, that the Whiteman should stop digging things up. The teaching

had returned in a circle to common object association in the sense of

Quantum Mechanics particle association and the idea that everything has

memory

And then was Grandpas showing Napi how we can exist in ParallelUniverse, the pre-Columbian Shamans state of power. And Grandpa did

draw the pre-Columbian distinction, only he explained this in the context of

before the Whiteman


17/39

Grandpa explained how the Whitemans schools had taken away this

understanding from the native children. Grandpa, who was fluent in seven

native languages, but had never been to school, said:

First they taught the Indian kids they can only believe in God, but damn,they were mean, the Whitemans god is mean. They beat the Holy out of

our kids, and beat their God into them. They burned the kids fingers with

matches or put their hands on hot stoves and told them they would all burn

forever if they did not go to church the rest of their lives. Those were the

schools run by nuns

They changed their minds when the state schools came along. Now

science was their new god. But the kids still went to church because their

parents were afraid of them getting burned. So science and god arearguing in the kids heads and lives, and dammit, they made the kids stupid

like the Whiteman. That argument defines the Whitemans world and our

kids have nearly all become White thinkers, they live with this argument in

their heads and have become completely hopeless. Now they cant see the

most simple things. They cant learn anything useful because of the

argument. They grow up dumb as hell..

Napi had begun to apply ideas he had learned from years of immersion in

the Native Language world to his surroundings as a matter of habit,because in his process of reverse assimilation he was thinking more and

more like the old time Indians

Napi was becoming a paradox of experience and normal expectation which

in the real world would expect the old Native ways would become extinct

together with the native language speakers, and yet here was Napi,

discarding modern thought and worldview, abandoning civilized thinking

and mentality for what civilized thinking and mentality was in fact putting to

death as a matter of unspoken habit: Indian ways

Napi disavowed his knowledge of, interactions with, and what would be

considered intelligence in the White world quite easily, because of his

familys biographical circumstance. White ways had never really become

set deeply in his family which had preserved many social habits from its

seeming now distant native ancestry, generation to generation. The liberal


18/39

child-raising habits had stayed with these families. Napi could easily see

this in retrospect

The Native world he was becoming fluid in made so much more sense to

Napi, an innate or natural sense, he began to look at the idea there weretwo kinds of Whites in his world

Invisible Indians like himself and the children of other families in the forest

who had been liberal raising their kids, and the White/Whites, the

regimented, strict disciplinarians who raised the kids that had been

thoughtless, violent assholes. The kids that tortured animals for

entertainment. These were the kids that had been practically tortured by

their parents and acted out in turn. The kids that had been beaten. The

mean kids. The bullies. The Racist kids not allowed to play with the childrenof families who were the friends of Indians. There was a lot of that crap

going on, growing up in proximity to the Blackfeet Indian Reservation

Napi, who no longer believed in coincidence and accidents, began to look

more closely at the comparative languages in his thinking. Native language

where everything is a process in action, with very few noun-like words and

a sort of pre-verb rather than an adverb, the pre-verb did not modify as

much as it set up possibilities for the coming verb which would take a

direction, move the process along depending on the choice of the verb, andit was the verb which carried the most important information in the absence

of nouns

Everything moved, flowed in this language, comparatively, the English

seemed difficult, clumsy and static. Napi thought about the English verb

Spell and its modified noun Spelling and how the kids were educated.

Indian memory was phenomenal compared to White memory and the

White education drilled the kids in Spelling. But Spell could be a noun as

well if you cast it with a verb. No accidents. A Spell was not called aSpell without reason. What would applying Native intelligence conclude in

this case? It was simple. Literacy was some sort of magic spell cast on the

Whites that locked up their heads in a very peculiar sort of thinking. It made

everything linear, i.e. square or triangulated, in fact one could say

imprismed. This is how natural acumen and real memory was stolen from

the children, by drilling them in the Spelling from the earliest possible age


19/39

In a world where everything is a circle by nature, these people could only

draw circles from abstraction. The people with the spelling removed

themselves from a huge part of reality. They locked themselves out of most

expressions of reality as a matter of cultural habit. Napi had been stunnedat the thought

The Black Door Clan

My clan is the now extinct Black Door Clan. A clan becomes extinct when

there is no longer a community sustaining their traditions. I witnessed this

extinction in my lifetime with the dying out of the Blackfeet language and

the associated Oral Histories. According to linguistics, a language become

dead when the children no longer speak that language. I concur. In thecase of the Blackfeet language, the last widely fluent generation I had met

as a young man, the generation preceding my age group, is now gone or

leaving this world. Almost none of today's children speak the language

I am but a faint echo of the Black Door past but nonetheless I do know a

few things

The anthropologist would depict the ancient Black Door lineage as having

painted their lodge (tipi) doors black but they could not tell you why. Norwould they know or be able to explain why people did not step in front of a

Black Door in motion, that is a man of this clan who was traveling or

moving with a purpose

The Black Doors were 'High Practitioners' of the Native American "Law of

Non-Interference"

The Rules for a Black Door practicing the Law of Non-Interference are:

1) No one can know what to expect

2) Never lie to yourself

3) Practice invisibility


20/39

4) No fear

5) Paradox is in everything

The paradox of the Black Door: The tremendous danger of psychicallyassaulting a Black Door had been born from the Black Door's

psychologically androgynous practice of a hyper-rational kindness in chaos

(without fear) and to plot against or otherwise (such as an act of

ignorance) undermine the Black Door practice of kindness was to meet with

unspeakable involuntary consequence: for any Black Door foe or any

micro-cosmic world which arouses the greater cosmic realm's wrath by

forcefully polluting a Black Door's kindness with the projected violence of

ego

Projecting the violence of ego underlie the Blackfoot proverb "Everyone

knows the Whiteman is crazy"

Children can see monsters. Black Doors could see monsters in one of the

dimensions of the Spirit World. Here is vision of a cosmic monster you will

meet in my essays, and in fact most people meet in everyday life in the

western world, one of the monsters ruling western civilization:

'Napi opened a circle from top down and listened through the apature hehad created, into a dark grotto with only torch light, and, where it seemed

only men gathered. He heard a voice in monotone with the soft echos such

as might be heard in the acoustically constructed cathedrals with a person

talking to one's self and otherwise empty. Turning his head, ear away from

the opening, so he could peer inside, Napi recognized the personality from

the school, Ego Priapism, and was mesmerized at the sight of this monster,

his lingam fully erect stemming from the place his nose should have been,

scrotum encased testicles moving against his mouth as he spoke, having to

pause to catch his breath while breathing through his mouth in a soft pant,with fecal-like, elongated tongue pushing aside his balls, allowing air to

pass the rectal lips, herpes sores showing, beginning where the pubic

beard thinned at the base of his perpetually erect shaft, his eyes peering

out from either side. Shifting his gaze, Napi subsequently beheld Priapism

separate into the 'Trinity' of alpha male teachers: Vance, Jack and Marcus


21/39

in their normal appearance seated together at lunch in the school's

'staph' lounge'

The above described monster, translated to western ideation, is a negative

photographic portrait, or one could say a sort of mental kirlian image of anenergy behavior or meme perpetrated in the western world's education,

whether at home or in school, it is the unseen ego-self behaviors of a

mono-sexual mentality in men, whether straight or gay

This energy is seen by children and in order not to be frightened in western

culture, because this monster is a cultural or ruling energy (meme) who is

ever present in the child's surroundings, the child must learn denial of this

aspect of reality

Children don't like violence. Black Doors don't like violence and practiced

protecting themselves against it and taught children how to make bad

dreams go away

In the modern western world ruled by monsters (memes or unrestrained

mentalities) however, the children do not culturally learn effective

immunities to negative energies and life itself has become the bad dream in

which they must participate. In one way or another, too often these kids

who were victims became the victimizer. Learning denial breeds the futuremonsters. This is the consequence or side effect of a cultural norm

necessary to the creation and perpetration of ego

Children have invisible friends. Most Indians had positive 'invisible friends'

translated (into moralizing western concept) as 'Spirits.' But in the modern

world, when denial is learned to avoid seeing the monsters, the child also

loses the ability to access friendly, positive and protective, healing and

loving energies

These kids consequently do not possess an important avenue to safety,

because they had learned denial based in fear. Therefore when the

monster incarnates in a sense of human behaviors in their experience, the

children easily become victims, they fall prey to threats and injuries of ego

associated with guilt or shame. As their life journey becomes more and

more a walled in world of self-reflections in glass, with the artificially


22/39

inculcated ego through praise and punishment rather than, or more so

than, adults modeling ethics which are not fear based, the kids learn to see

themselves more and the reality surrounding them less

Children learn living in denial from adults. Just as Indians have becomeinvoluntarily assimilated to the ego of the Western world, forcefully

educated out of their language and associated cultural concepts

Mirrors

Going to Rule 2 of the Black Door Law of Non-Interference, the greater the

consequence delivered to the westerner for violating the rule never lie to

yourself (by living in denial) in relation to the violence of projecting ego, the

greater the fear the westerners engender in themselves- resulting inprojecting greater violence of ego still, only to see greater consequence yet

again to the point of witnessing their self-world image as a collective

consequence in destruction surrounding them

The Black Door law of non-interference should require practice

invisibility (Rule 3) wherein a warrior witness without succor people

suffering the violence of projected ego, which can only finally consume the

world on behalf of those who will not abandon their violence, but then there

can be an exception to any rule (rule 5)

The Secret of The Black Door

Why and how disaster surrounds the lives of everyone who projects the

violence of ego onto a Black Door shaman: The Black Door refers to a

mentality of parallel universe access via shamanic androgynous modality

(access to both brains as fluent in reality, lucid dreaming would be example

given to how westerners might more typically glimpse it from this side.) So

what happens in the other universe is just as real, the Black Door shamanis just as real there as here, but in that reality, when justice is served, the

laws of reality step away from compassion and give no quarter

Napi explains: The Black Door refers to something like the gate in Star

Gate 1, if the Indians would have written something like science fiction,

except in the old, now nearly extinct world of the native training


23/39

In the Oral Shamanic reality (the racially Red Indians are nearly all literate,

western educated, and mentally White- these days, nothing like this) it was

not fiction. Not fiction at all

The gate to the realm of the gods is between the parallel universe of the

mind, it is the purposely developed power of dreaming

The greatest of the Black Doors would sometimes create reality from

dream state: as reality on this side of the door, as in the corporeal illusion,

and were hugely feared

People did not dare to cross the gaze of these shamans for fear of having a

careless and subsequently surely fatal thought. Napi recalled from hislessons:

The paradox of the Black Door to the westerner is: how the tremendous

danger of psychically (or mentally) assaulting a Black Door had been born

from the Black Doors androgynous practice of kindness in a place of no

fear and the unspeakable involuntary consequence for any Black Door

foe or any micro-cosmic or even a macro-cosmic world which arouses the

greater cosmic realms wrath by forcefully polluting a Black Doors kindness

with the projected violence of ego for the greater the consequencedelivered to the westerner, the greater the fear the westerners engender in

themselves- resulting in projecting greater violence still, only to see greater

consequence yet again to the point of witnessing their world destroyed

around themselves before their own inevitable end and the Black Doors

law of non-interference require he witness without succor the violence

which can only finally consume those who will not abandon it

You must learn to live our law of non-interference to survive the collective

disasters of the Strangled People (a Black Door term for Westernmentality)

Napi explains:

The Rules for a Black Door practicing the Law of Non-Interference are:


24/39

I dont know anything (No one can know what to expect)

Never lie to yourself

Practice invisibility

No fear

Paradox is in everything (There can be an exception to any rule)

Each of these rules has a subset of teachings. When you have understood

these initial ideas, we can move on to the more advanced teachings. But

first you must learn the timing, the concept there is no such thing as an

accident or coincidence, there is no such thing as right and wrong, there isonly what works and what does not work.

If you align yourself in the timing, you are with it, you are in with what

works. If you cannot align yourself with the timing, nothing works. Things

only can go wrong. This is what the Whitemans civilization is discovering in

a very big way. The farther you take your reality out of times alignment,

things will go wrong for you in bigger and more spectacular ways. You have

to stay aligned with time to know a sensible existence. The Law of Non-

Interference practiced as approach to life will bring you into the Alignment.

The Alignment with Time

Napi explains how ego based fear mechanisms destroy reality

Our Universe is a great living clockwork and we are meant to be working

parts which move intelligently together with the other parts in the

coordination of all things. How do we see this? If we use the idea of hand-

eye coordination, and extrapolate this to mind-ear coordination, you willbegin to have some idea. But it could also be mind-eye coordination, it

could be mind-smell coordination that is where the Whiteman went

wrong, he lost the mind as in minding what you are doing. So when you

have thought of hand-eye coordination it was always a self centered

intention that forgot the greater mind aspect, if this is lost, in some sense

you are unconscious of what it is you are doing


25/39

The birds are the messengers. So when I say mind-ear coordination, you

need to listen. Listen to the timing. How do you do that? It is as simple as

matching your thoughts to the sounds of the birds. If you are aligned, the

sounds of the birds will not be cacophony, they will show you what will besensible timing. The sound to the thought. When these match, you have

good information. Thoughts you can depend on. But you cannot make this

work as intention, it requires stepping out of ego. It is something that can

only be observed

So you must discover an affinity with some kind of bird that you can relate

to. This is an ego killer when you think about this in terms of the birds can

impart veracity to your thinking and without this timing you are lost in

your thinking. And Im not talking about the lost in daydreaming, actually ifyou are able to get into daydreaming, you are more likely to discover timing

I am rather pointing to the dangers of becoming lost in egotistical thought,

this is the imprisment of the White mind, the hall of mirrors, the mirror self

of ego wanders here and never knows 90% of the intelligence we are a part

of, because for ego to exist, it has to be seperated out from the timing. The

ego is nothing more than a self-deception, a trick, a trap. Ego was not

meant to be, but is a possible side effect of the birth of self-awareness.

Awareness, self-awareness and ego are all distinct things

Awareness is the great expression of creation, what we know as the great

mystery. Self-awareness is inclusive individuation that does not suffer fear,

anger, embarrassment or shame. These are all things which can only exist

in ego. Ego is isolated individuation, this is the source of fear, being alone.

Ego is frustrated at its isolation, this is the source of anger. Embarrassment

and shame are the children of anger and frustration, you could call these

the children of the paradox of evil

Evil can only exist in ego. In fact it could be said evil is nothing more than

the violence of projecting ego. So this imprisment of ego creates a

damaging illusion of the holographic expression of our knowing self

awareness. This is on account of becoming trapped in the illusion of

creation, because we think we can die. And there is great fear in the idea of

dying, this is the fear of being alone, but this fear stems from the paradox of


26/39

the truth of the aloneness of the false image of ego, which is the only

mortal being. The ego senses its mortality, because in fact the ego is not

real

Self awareness is a Quantum inter-dimensional entity, it has place afterplace to retreat to, to reincorporate and re-express the memory of its

incarnation. Ego is merely three dimensional and cannot see beyond

corporeal imprisment. This takes away the sight of being within the

alignment

The ego is an artificial entity concocted up by the moronic behaviors of the

adult Whitemen when raising the children, when they force the kids to be

alone and isolated as a punishment I dont mean that only in a strict

literal sense but as well in a greater social sense of excluding the childrenfrom the adult world. The children have to learn denial of 90% of their

innate abilities in mental function and discover ego and live in ego as the

primary expression of themselves to survive. This is what brings them into

the Whitemans adult world. So they become isolated from the great

intelligence to know a false and mortal inclusiveness, the source of all fear.

And it is from this place of fear all violence, as we know the term violence in

the Human social sense, springs. This is the projection of the Human ego.

In fact, the acquiring of ego was diagnosed and treated as a disease by our

medicine men

To know shamanic awareness, that is the pre-Columbian intelligence in the

Americas, is to become self aware without becoming trapped in ego. This is

individuation aligned with the timing, the idea that we are inclusive, part and

parcel of all that exists in the greater awareness. This goes to the heart of

the law of non-interference because we do not tinker with the expression of

the great living clockwork. Interfering creates a micro-cosmic out of sync

world that centers around an ego-self entity and brings on negative

experiences. We are not supposed to do that. And when we made thatmistake, steps were taken to correct our mistake and get back into the

alignment. This was the only time we knew fear, the times we made this

mistake of interfering, because when we interfere we cause consequences

We did have people who practiced evil, but this was the exception rather

than the rule of the evil you see governing the Whitemans existence


27/39

All shamanic death, a rarity, was revealed to people through the

phenomena of fear, the fear of having made a mental mistake. If you knew

someone had made a mistake which had been concealed rather than

corrected, you could kill that person by exploiting their fear of that mistake.The consequence of knowing fear in the shamanic reality was the collapse

of the immune, people wasted away and died. But the equal consequence

of mistakenly exploiting fear was the same. So to be a sorcerer was a

dangerous business. Because if you made a mistake attempting to exploit

someones fear, it would quite naturally blow up in your face, it would be

your consequence rather than theirs. So we were all taught this was

unwise, not to participate in this sort of exploitation. But there is always the

paradox in all things. Simple fear of knowing can kill. And so when fear of

knowing meets a truth that must be expressed, the consequence is equallydeadly. It is the equivalent of mental self-immolation. The fear in the mind

burns the body up. It was rare

But this is a tragedy that happens everyday in White civilization and they

are afraid to put their finger on the source, the simple fear. Fear fears fear.

Their world is ruled by fear more and more each day, as they take their

world farther and farther out of times alignment. Fear grows exponentially

and body wasting diseases do too. Fear and disease are both out of control

So now they fear epidemics and they will see that too. Because, they do

not understand causal principles of reality. This is a problem of being

trapped in ego. They cant see through to the simple. So the fear that only

lives in ego kills the expression of the self and they can physically die on

account of that. We have remedies to heal these people but the fear is so

pervasive in these people they are afraid to try them. It is not much more

than an issue of trust, but their fear is so pervasive and deep, we had to let

go of telling them about anything because they historically killed us simply

for offering to help

They still would try to put us in jail for extrapolating some of our old healing

practices, such as restarting or boosting adult immune systems with

colostrums, simply on account of ego and fear. So it has been historically

difficult to help these people, because they fear our ways and would prefer


28/39

their fear to our healing. Its difficult, they would rather keep their egos alive

and die of fear than to be healed. How can you help that?

This is a consequence of falling out of alignment. They call it The fall from

Grace. But then they put it in the hands of Ego (capital E) to correctthemselves, they put in Gods hands. But their idea of God is most often

expressed as the violence of projecting the collective ego and fear in the

Whiteman, and that isnt going to help. What helps is the loss of ego. And

knowing people in the alignment. That is the community you want to know.

The gentle, kind and caring people

The Inter-Dimensional Hemorrhage of Time

Napis lessons continue with Spotted Buffalo, his White German student ofShamanism

Everything you see surrounding you is an interpretation. It is nothing more

than that. The paradox is, it is simultaneously an expression. And nothing

more than that. This is the paradox of the two universe. Where people go

wrong is messing around with the interpretation, because that alters the

expression. And altering the expression has consequences that spill over

into the interpretation. You cannot mess around with the one, without

knowing consequence from the other. So, as in the case of the Whiteman,if you are only aware of the one side of it, the interpretation, and you jack

that around, the expression nails you and then you wonder why. So then

the Whiteman tries to fix it, altering the new interpretation because that is

the only side he can see, and the expression hits him again, but this time

even harder. Damn

Archaeology is the most easily explained example. The interpretation is

the passage of time covers things up. Close, but no cigar. In actuality, the

dirt he is piling out of the holes he digs is the time itsself. That is where healters the expression. Because time is spilling out of those holes in the

Quantum reality sense of particle memory association. The more he digs

into the past, the more the past bleeds into the present. The Whiteman is

collapsing time on us by digging things up. Poke so many holes in the

membrane of time and the membrane tears wide open at some point and

then comes the tidal wave. We are getting pretty close to that


29/39

You see it in everything. He has dug up all of the violence and the dead of

the past and what do you see around you? Immense violence and death.

He has dug up the time of the dinosaurs going after oil and we have the

climate of the dinosaurs coming down on us. Not to mention the spirits ofthose times, the metal creatures that run on the associated memory of

those times. So the past is collapsing into its future, our present, and their

future, our present time, is simultaneously collapsing into the time of our

ancestors and that is going to be pretty interesting. Now the Whiteman is all

proud he has dug up the first mass plague graves from the middle ages

and the same month his World Health Organization warns we are at the

highest risk ever for a planetwide epidemic. Now there is a case of timing

and no coincidence he should pay attention to. It is all coming about from

digging things up. Like dead people and oil. What is the consequence?Lots more of the dead people. Oil drives his wars. Its all related. Everything

is related. Damn, his anthropologists thought that only meant kinship or

something retarded like that. This would be true in the Whitemans micro-

cosmic vision of things but everything is related is a way bigger idea than

this simple kinship. Like everything is related in Quantum reality. HELLO!! It

has been five hundred years we have been saying everything is related

and you havent taken your recent baby steps in Quantum Mechanics out

of the laboratory yet. Whats an Indian to supposed to do? Spell it out for

you? Napi and Spotted Buffalo both laughed at the joke. Both of themknew it was not funny. The paradox

Ego Diagnosed As Mental Illness

Red Tomahawk on western science:The knowledge and use of any or all

the powers of the objects on Earth around us is as liable to lead a man

wrong as to lead him right. It is merely power, with no way of knowing how

to use it correctly unless Woniya [Spirit] is with a mans spirit for the

light

The ancient native world diagnosed ego as a mental illness and it is safe

to say the ancient native mentality was an ethical persona as opposed to a

modern western ego based personality. To tell a lie was a concept that

could not be grasped in the western sense. Compare this to the modern

people who often do not even realize when they are lying to someone or


30/39

being lied to, or most frightening, are not aware of when they might be lying

to themselves, in a culture based on the self deceit of ego [individual self

image]

We can throw all the self deceit of egos love in western psychology at evil[in a morals based system] and get nowhere without practical principles or

ethics

Ethics is the avenue to a real or tangible love, ethical relationships with our

surroundings in nature [precluding greed] to start, and applied ethics with

our fellow man and our neighbors is the only avenue to peace

Heads in the sand allow western social stupidities to go on and is why we

are sinking as a society, generating the terror we are subjected to,whether the terror of radicalized people resulting from policy of sustained

economic development or the state terror of the policy enforcement

mechanisms such as renditions [chicken or egg, which came first?]

The new age quantum mechanics love and light crowd who think we can

love our way into a new reality (never gonna happen) with a simple change

in our heads short of taking real action against evil, are deluded. In fact all

the love and light people on the planet are just accountable as Dick Cheney

[and in a way just as self deceived or living a lie and consequently in asense as spiritually ugly] for our doom in a sense of string theory [karma]

when they dont put their lives on the line for our future in a sense of ethics

or busting their butts in some way to make the stupid stuff stop from this

end

When the western people figure out anthro-centric [western science which

is a religion in its own right, or the capital 'I' in English, examples given] is

by far the greater self-deceit than any native anthropomorphism, we might

get on track and begin to understand stupid is as stupid does in the bigpicture

Our plundering other societies is just now a case of the chickens coming

home to roost that every man woman and child in the USA is being held

accountable [never mind 'responsibility', they ARE different words and

might as well be different worlds] for in a native sense of string theory, if


31/39

you have enjoyed the elevated wealth tied to the plunder, you are

accountable to the consequence, personal responsibility notwithstanding.

You pump gas? String theory in quantum mechanics has you in its grip, and

there is no escape except to make personal sacrifice towards us all working

together untying from that particular web governed by string theorys ruleas postulated by Jesus: as you sow, so shall you reap

It is as simple as a medicine man or Jesus saying You must be like

children in your understanding which does not serve the purpose of any

scientist, politician or any Thomas Aquinus or St Augustine who are ethical

midgets by comparison to the truly simple and humble people known as

primitives in anthropology

Female intelligence particularly, psychological androgyny generally, andintegrated spiritual concept [related to the preceding] -all relate to original

ethical concept in Native American thought and philosophy which has been

both: metaphorically and literally destroyed [in translation] by western

civilizations science and education which are social-morals based in

monotheism [something the ancient native culture is not]

In the 1920s it was noted by scientists the native languages easily

described processes in the new quantum mechanics, something western

languages were struggling with. Native American languages have manyhundreds of gender which are actually varying degrees of androgyny, a

reality inconceivable to nearly all western thinkers with their he, she and

gender neutral in the paternal hierarchal order whose reality is shaped by

language of I and trapped in its western mentality as postulated by

Benjamin Whorf

The ancient native mentality is perfectly suited to know the phenomena of

quantum mechanics with its language foundation in observing processes in

nature. Native spiritual concept is a mistranslation of a high ethics [notmorals] system, free of fear, guilt or shame- all based on principled ethical

relationships with our natural surroundings. It is not at all about right and

wrong, rather it is about what works and what does not work. It really is as

simple as that, what works as opposed to what does not work is the Native

ethics in a nutshell, versus the fear, guilt and shame motivated western


32/39

morality with its false forgiveness excusing accountability which has not,

does not and never will make the necessary corrections for survival

Quantum mechanics does not care about the individual by its very nature.

Native America has attempted to tell the western world this most simple ofseminal facts for 500 years: Its all related -a thing simple and beautiful

persons like Pat Kennedy or Chief Joseph or Heavy Runner or Tecumseh

did not know how to explain to complicated, unhappy and self centered

people, i.e. Whitemen

Yet these primitives are the people who produced brilliant tacticians like

Joseph and medicine men like Wolf Robe, men who performed miracles

equal to some of those ascribed to Jesus, with native ethics based training

in quantum theory demonstrating intelligence in a manner any lab orparticle smasher will never come close to replicating. People who would not

harm a stem of a single blade of grass if it could be avoided, let alone

smash atoms, people who look at the technology induced malignancy of

todays planet and see the source of that malignancy in the western

mentality of I

Chippewa leader Rising Sun on western science: The scientific view is

inadequate to explain how man is to find and know a road along which

he wishes and chooses to make this said progress unless Manitoo by hisspirit guides the mind of man, keeping human beings just and generous

and hospitable

Rising Sun, speaking as an elderly man in 1918, WAS NOT speaking solely

or even primarily of human relationships with fellow humans, and as a

western I thinker, that would not have even occurred to you, were one to

be perfectly honest with oneself.

The Old Native Circle

Napi explains to Spotted Buffalo what it had meant for a man to be in a

matriarchal culture

Before the Christians, all of the male children were educated by the

grandmothers to age ten. These were the women who inculcated the


33/39

cultural values to everyone, it was the entire culture in the hands of these

women. By this time of age ten the male children were exiled from womens

society but already they were armed with lethal weapons and would lay

down their lives for these women without hesitation. In fact they were the

last line of defense between any attacking enemy and the women whowere the seed stock of the nation, the repository of knowledge that

determined everything it meant to be a Blackfoot. And it was not only the

Blackfoot, but this was the case for most of the North American peoples.

You see this clearly in the Oral History. When the Blackfeet had effectively

destroyed the Sarcee as a tribe, right down to wiping out the Mosquitos,

the child warriors, all of the male Sarcee beings had been killed. They

became afraid of what they had done because no one has the right to

destroy any expression of the Creation altogether. Our wise peoplecounseled among themselves. If the Sarcee went extinct, this could be the

Blackfeet fate as well. What had been done was of the most serious of

wrongs. So the Sarcee women were given both protection and Blackfoot

husbands, to reconstitute that tribe. And today the Sarcee people speak

their own Athbascan language rather than Blackfoot. They still have their

own Oral History and creation story. This is the result of the Women

educating the male children. But they did have to adopt the Blackfeet

Okan ceremony to protect their new men, because these Blackfoot men

had come from a different world, distinct from the Sarcee world, and thathad to be recognized. And so the Sarcee nation went on and had survived.

The old Blackfoot world was divided between the women, the men, and the

androgyny. What I mean by that is everything was ordered around the

natural process observed in the world surrounding them. This order was

and is, first and primarily feminine. This is reflected in the social order and

the language. The oldest term for the highest possible chief is a Ninawaki.

A Ninawaki is only a woman, never a man. In todays Blackfoot language

the word is the shorter Ninaki and means both Boss and Wife. This is theprimary authority of the ancient Blackfoot world. And this idea goes to the

cultural attitude of women as the disciplinarians: as in the very old

Blackfoot proverb The grandmothers carry the switch. The earth is a

woman and women are the hosts. Men are the guests. This is reflected in

todays Blackfoot world when a man has been thrown out of his house by

his wife and that is it. It is divorce. The man can do nothing more than state


34/39

the fact of the matter as in the modern Blackfoot expression She gave me

the boot. By cultural law, that act of eviction must be honored. So the men

had to be careful not to disrespect their wives. They had to live honorably in

relation to the governing female principles. The feminine aspect of the

androgyny is reflected in the customs of marriage, the social organizationand the language. And not least, in the men themselves.

The language is key to this understanding. There is what has been

misunderstood by the western linguists as multiple genders but in fact this

is nothing more than varying degrees of androgyny. Primary male gender is

rare. You see this in the Trickster, a male clown or a man who behaves like

an idiot, in the Sun, some of the sky gods, the Eagle perhaps on occasion,

not much more. Primary female gender is more common than primary male

gender but none the less, is the exception rather than the rule. Womenthemselves when single, or alone for instance out digging roots, the

mothers with cubs, the woman chief Ninawaki, the wife Ninaki. However it

is the androgyny which, in varying degrees, is the most common

expression. Men are in nearly all cases androgynous, this is the vehicle for

them to know what it means to live in Human Dignity. As warriors, you

might expect the reverse to be true, but in this case they are actually more

female than male, especially with the ritual paint as expressions of the

matriarchal world they represent in war. All war is made on behalf of the

women who nursed them for this role the first ten years of their lives. Theywere literally trained to think by and to think like, the women. The evidence

is striking. What the Whiteman could never see, and it was jumping out at

him in the many photos of history, is in the feminine appearance of the

men. Just take another look. These were not effeminate men, not at all in

the western sense, yet they were very feminine men in personal expression

that by and large were not in any sense gay. These native men were truly

psychologically androgynous beings, a missed point altogether in

Anthropology. It was simply a phenomena of Human culture that was

beyond the framework of the western mentality. The Whites missed italtogether.

These were most typically heterosexual men of a feminine persona, high

honor and a sense of feminine dignity that reflects in the frontier wisdom of

the Whites: that it was by far smarter to simply kill an Indian, outright, rather

than insult him. These people did not mess around, life is not a game.


35/39

Rather life is an important opportunity to live a personal evolution of service

to all that is holy, beginning with ones relationship to the Earth, the great

mother.

Because the Whites could not see the source of the fundamental valuesinculcated in these people, that matriarchal principles underpinned a

psychology with mental structures differing altogether from their own, they

never saw how the Native government functioned. Rather they projected

their own masculine psychological images on the native proceedings and

came up with an utterly perverted interpretation.

The womens secret societies were in fact the crucible and drive in the

Native evolutionary experience. They posed to the men the problems they

wanted solved and told them to get it done. When the men met andcompared notes, it could not be missed when every son, husband and

father with status and voice in the mens council had heard the identical

message, individually, from the women. Having been devolved upon to take

action to seek a means to an end the women had specified, the men

discussed. The women had already had their say, they now only need

witness what they had demanded be resolved, in actuality resolved. This

was the primary means of problem solving in these cultures. The women

identified what they wanted. The men were entrusted with bringing that

desire to fruition. These women raised their men to be demigods, to bemental, ethical and physical Titans without fear. They did a good job of it.

That the women gave unselfishly, totally caring for these men, in return

service to these amazing beings trained from infancy to lay their lives down

without question for these women says everything. It was a circle,

reciprocal.

This event was in fact totally invisible to the White men who could only see

the superficial aspect of the mens public meeting and counseling and drawincorrect conclusions from this surface event, unaware of the inner

dynamics these women had provided to devise and implement a brilliant

system. But one only need look again at the photos of history, in the case

of the Blackfoot, you see the men in the circle of ceremony seated beside

their higher chiefs, their Sits Besides Them Wives, the Ninawaki. How is

it the wives are suddenly the highest form of chief, a Ninawaki, rather than

the mere boss of a man in family, a Ninaki? Because it had become the

formal, proper word, a greater context, in ceremony. Look at the photos.

She is wearing a chiefs bonnet. She sits beside him as a matter of her

place and privilege is granted by women, not men. He does not have much

to say about that. And by gosh, he had better do right by her. Because herpeers, all of the Ninawaki, determine his status among the men, just as

much as these women had decided her right to be seated beside him. Now

she has stepped up and cares for the Nation in the macro-cosmic sense of

family. He is there because it is the men who are entrusted with carrying

out that care and responsibility.

First, all life is meant to be ceremony. This is the formal circle of council. It

is a macro-inclusive circle of the Blackfoot world, it is an expression of

world view. The world is constantly in a state of flux, a kind of fluidity thatmust be coordinated with, in order to know a stable existence in

community. In this original sense, all ceremony is calibration and

recalibration. The so-called opening prayers are the inclusive

acknowledgment and employment of the quantum reality energy strings

that tie everything, ourselves inclusive, essentially all the expression of our

integrated surrounding existence and reality, together.

We are not to become separated in our own sight and intelligence from the

greater intelligence of the mystery, the larger intelligent expression weknow as reality. So this opening prayer is not a macro-cosmic

communication in a local or finite sense, but a communication with a

Gestalt expression in the Blackfoot world, one world of many intelligently

expressed worlds which make up a greater cosmos. The Blackfoot family is

a nucleus, that bands council, a cell, the Blackfoot branch or division is an

organ, the confederacy an organism. The mystery of our existing is a

clockwork environment in which all must remain coordinated/calibrated to

know a safe and intelligent experience. In this sense, the council is the

Blackfoot worlds great expression of what it means to know survival. Andall survival depends on, from the beginning, what it means to live in Human

Dignity for the individual males: to be Niitssitapi, which is a female rooted

expression.

Without this sense of dignity which is actually an approach to life in relation

to our surroundings, from the beginning, none of the expressions


37/39

surrounding us will coordinate or make sense. Because all is related, all,

everything, must be approached by these men in council with the greatest

respect for this original law laid down for men to serve the women who

represent the gift of our very lives. You must have LIVED this law, as in

living personal ceremony, this will have in fact determined your seatdetermining law and status.

The Beautiful Blue Planet

The 'Beautiful Blue Planet' is an apt name for where we live and it is

nothing short of tragic wonder more people don't appreciate our beauty of

existence in an undisturbed sense- particularly the western science which

avoids honest math going to the equation of damage inflicted through

exploitation of nature necessary to build civilization to a point of SpaceExploration. This brings to mind Einstein's stating the intelligence which

creates a problem is inadequate to solve that problem- i.e. asking the

science which is destroying the planet to get us out of this mess (as if we

can create a 'space ark' to move on) is nothing short of planetary suicide

based on current economic model of 'sustained development'

Sustained development is precisely the principle of cancer and a macro-

cosmic cancerous mentality of the collective western world is devouring us,

lock, stock and ecosystem on the pyramid scheme necessary to placesatellites in orbit, including the Hubble. In shamanic ethics, which are a

quantum based reality, there is no escape from responsibility and insofar as

any good coming of the destruction required to 'advance' knowledge in

western culture, it is not going to happen except in a possible sense of

learning what does NOT work and that learning will be trauma based, and

simply reflects the entirety of collective responsibility

Prior to 10,000 years ago, most of the planet lived in a high state of

awareness by comparison to our present time. In the past, prior toprojecting reality or the externalizing ideation which came with the birth of

ego, there were traditions of inter-stellar experience via a concept of

'awake dreaming' or what only now is being rediscovered in western culture

as the concept of lucid dreaming

Time travel was known and my position would be the whole idea of the

Anunnaki is nothing more than the ancients looking forward to us and now,

in a sense of where ideas come from in different areas of the brain

The Plains Ojibwa had a shamanic tradition which survived into my lifetimethat could see through time and space using nothing more than the mind,

upon which the history of their world was based

Insofar as projecting into other locales in space-time, the [ancient] Native

understanding is our brain is a model of the universe, and we are always

located in the present area of consciousness. Other areas of implied

consciousness simply reflect alternative collective organization of

consciousness in the brain at different times in history

Looking for 'it' out there is barking up the wrong tree, because it is when we

get it 'here', we are going to be able to find it, 'there'

Going to that thought, transposed onto western ideation, I propose the

archetypes in western mythology represent nothing more than battles of

ideas, for instance the titans overthrow marking past new world order or

change [drop] in consciousness so to speak

Like the medicine man Jesus had said, the 'kingdom of heaven is withinyou' and 'in my father's house there are many mansions.' Everything you

imagine to be out there, is already here. Evidence of Nibiru indicates

upcoming shift in the locale of consciousness, which points to a

fundamental change of reality and, no one can know what to expect

Our brain has a sort of inter-stellar GPS built in and it is where the majority

are locked in [or out] of consciousness, is where we find ourselves. Again

and again in the [Oral] history of Native civilization, the Navaho tradition is

very clear in this, we have changed locales, and lived on different planets.None of it required spaceships

Living correctly

Translated to eastern philosophy terminology, I would sum up the ancient

Blackfoot approach to life like this every impact, down to so much as a


39/39

bruised blade of grass, in the course of going about anything, whether daily

sustenance or whatever, generates karma. This in turn demands a dharma

or life of right action in relation to all things, as ones foundation, to keep

balance. It is within the living clock this principle was observed and

followed in such a way as to discover what would be gifted to sustain thepeople. Jung observed this principle as synchronicity but I will the note the

Red Indians knew how to read the clock or nature, that is ones

surroundings, in all of this. Because the clock was the foundation all had

been based on, the order of priority in caring for things was as follows:

1) The great community or cosmos (interpreted as territory)

2) The environment (within the cosmos)

3) The nation (within the environment)

4) The clan/band (within the nation)5) The family (within the band)

6) The self (within the family)

All of the preceding demanded an integrated approach that precluded ego

in the western sense .. it was never about me but about sustaining a

system of perpetual motion which depended on all; right down to

awareness of impact to the single blade of grass and the right action or

lived awareness demanded of this fact. Development of the individual was

integrated to the whole of it, precluding any practical sense of separation.As this system of perpetual motion moves through the seasons, it could be

interpreted as a Native American Tao. Everyone in the ancient way could

read this movement until the Europeans arrived. And we know the

consequence of the new education has been.

The ancient AmerInd concept that could translate as 'karma' was more

considered a fact of life as opposed to a negative per se. Certainly there

would be negative consequence of taking no care or thought of one's every

impact in the course of events across any spectrum of life, no matter howsmall. But karma 'just is' and how this is dealt with had been through a life

of right action. In other words, all acts of sustaining our place within the

cosmos generate karma, this is immutable law founded in quantum

mechanics. Discharging karma -as opposed to allowing karma to

accumulate- is the purpose of Dharma or a life of right action in the pre-

the lessons of napi mephisto
