We recognize that the sacred teachings of our ancestors passed down through the voice of Wakan Tanka, the Great Spirit, call us to live in harmony with the Creator and all of creation. The breath of our Creator, the Maker of All Good Things, speaks life, balance, and harmony into existence, and we feel this divine wisdom flowing through us, guiding us on the path of the Great Mystery.
Our divine connection to the Creator is a powerful reminder of our shared sacred space. We are not alone here but united with Wakan Tanka and all living beings. This space within us is not just a place but the embodiment of our spiritual essence, where we find our oneness with the Great Spirit. Here, we come together in unity, honoring the sacred hoop of life and recognizing our shared responsibility as caretakers of Mother Earth and all that exists.
We are called to be unswayed by the distractions and false paths that lead away from the truth. We walk the Red Road, the path of truth and harmony, guided by the Seven Sacred Laws—Respect, Love, Courage, Honesty, Wisdom, Humility, and Truth. As those who have come before us walk this sacred path, we, too, commit ourselves to following Wakan Tanka’s will with unwavering strength, clarity, and purpose.
We know that when we live in harmony with the Creator’s will, the light of the Great Spirit shines through us. Our hearts and faces reflect this light, just as our ancestors saw Wakan Tanka’s presence in the natural world and honored the divine order in all creation.
We open our spiritual eyes to see the beauty and harmony of life as part of the sacred circle, and we live in deep connection to all living beings, feeling the profound beauty and harmony of the Creator's creation.
Our ancestors taught us that true devotion requires sacrifice, not in acts of violence, but through a sacred commitment to protect and preserve the balance of life. We offer ourselves fully, knowing that in service to Wakan Tanka and the well-being of all our relations, we fulfill our purpose as spiritual warriors and protectors of the sacred. We courageously enter the fire of transformation, allowing ourselves to be purified and aligned with the Creator’s will.
As we rise in this commitment, we understand our spiritual and physical responsibility. We are called to act as caretakers of Mother Earth and all life, moving in harmony with the Creator’s will and standing firm in our role as protectors of the sacred hoop of life. Our strength comes from this divine connection, and we embrace our role in the great circle of existence, striving to live in harmony with the Creator's will in every aspect of our lives.
The clarity of our eyes, ears, and tongue is essential to this path. We know that seeing with the eyes of the spirit, listening with the ears of the heart, and speaking only truth are sacred responsibilities. By opening ourselves to the Great Spirit, we transcend the distractions of the material world and align ourselves fully with the spiritual realities of the Great Mystery.
Through this, we walk the path of wisdom, love, and unity, experiencing the transformative power of our deep connection with Wakan Tanka.
