That prediction is based on a 500-year-old prophecy.
In 1490, based on the “sacred calendar” and position of the stars, the Maya
High Council reported that the Americas were in for rough times. During an age
called The Nine Cycles of Hell, the indigenous people would lose their culture
religions, languages and sciences, according to the prophecy.
But in 1985, the council determined that the
destructive age was over, and there would be a return to knowledge, or a golden
age.
A meeting Oct. 10 th was the third gathering of
indigenous elders and medicine people in which” the knowledge” is shared with
others. The elders, some spiritual guides or warriors of peace, came from all
corners of the Americas, including Alaska, Guatemala, Montana and Santa Clara
Pueblo.
“We have waters that no longer have fish because of
pollution. The soil has been eroded, no longer able to give plant life. The air
is no longer clean.” Leon Secatero of Cochiti Pueblo said. “ The future
culture. We have to teach them how not to destroy the (four) elements (of water, soil, air and fire). We have to
go back and teach that.
Secatero was among a group of about 200 indigenous
elders and medicine people from the Americas who made pilgrimages to the
Spiritual gathering on sacred land in Northern New Mexico. On Oct. 10, the last
their gathering, the members of the Confederation of Indigenous Elders of
America united in Santa Fe to discuss and their ancestral wisdom, medicine and
prophecies.
We had to evaluate ourselves, our medicines, our
sacred path,” said Secatero, whose father is Hopi and Apache and whose mother
is Navajo. “Are the connections (among indigenous cultures in the Americas)
still there? Are they still intact? It stopped for a while, but now it’s time
to bring them out.”
Each of us has a responsibility to the Earth,” said
Sitting Buffalo of Montana. “We must all assume responsibility to protect our
Earth. It’s time stop talking and start acting.”
At one point in the discussion, an elderly woman spoke
an Indian language, her son translated what she said into Portuguese, that was
then translated into English and a fourth person translated that into Spanish.
“We are at a very exciting point in our lives that
we’re all able to come together,” Jose Lucero of Santa Clara Pueblo said. “In
the first world, we all spoke one language. We must come together again to
speak one language.”
During this most recent meeting, the only one so far
in North America, the elders said the Earth must be treated the way it was
before settlers moved in.
“Each of us has a responsibility to the Earth,” said
Sitting Buffalo of Montana. “We must all assume responsibility to protect our
Earth. It’s time to stop talking and start acting.” (The end.)
Here we have another prophecy stating virtually the
same thing, with the same conclusion: It is time to teach respect for our
environment. If we don’t, and/or the lessons are not learned, the prophecy is clear. The scientific and
academic communities have the proof of the
danger, endorsing these prophesies. It is indeed time to take action
and learn/teach how to live in balance with things. We hope the information
on this page is a start. Seek out elders. If you can’t find ‘em’ send a note
with your location. Also, if you or
your group would like to join this effort, please send a note. We will be
coordinating with as many groups as we can, to develop a united group to save
us from ourselves. (eggy)
