Statement From Kuuyux, Larry Merculieff

This is a very important time for all human beings.
We are being called by the Spirit Who Lives In All Things
to restore the Sacred Hoop that has been broken, and
we are now called to choose the path of materialism or
Spirit. Our choice will determine the degree of suffering
and pain we human beings will encounter in this lifetime
as we transition into the new world that is about to be
birthed.
The appearance of the two white buffalo on the east
coast at this time, and the way they were born, is a
powerful sign that NOW is the time to bring attention
to the human beings, to turn our hearts and minds to
the Original Teachings, the Natural Laws, and the
Universal Law given to us by the Creator.
The world’s spiritual leaders and healers have read
such signs and understand what it is we are facing as
human beings at this time. Great changes are occurring
on Mother Earth, and these changes are intensifying.
Mother Earth herself is awakening from a deep sleep
and will shake off what is not in alignment with Spirit.
We will experience these changes in this lifetime. What
is not in alignment with Spirit will be shaken off.
The appearance of the white and black buffalo on the
east coast is a more urgent call to First Nation Peoples
around the world that now is the time to wake up
from the reckless sleep of our spirit that has caused
us to abandon our ways.
It is an urgent call that says the time is NOW to
vigorously restore our ceremonies, language, rites
of passage, stories, art, prayer chants and songs,
and Original Teachings given to the real human beings
of all nations.
With such sacred signs as the appearance of the white,
and now the black buffalo, we are reminded that we are
being guided and that we are not alone in this work.
But, such signs are also a warning that it is time to
wake up. Our ancestors, Mother Earth, White Buffalo
Calf Woman, and our allies in the unseen worlds are
with us and will help us do the work that must be
done.
Even the spirits of our ancestors are embodying
in the young ones to help us during these times. We
must bring the young ones back to the drum and
ceremony to help them remember quickly who they
are so they can join the forces aligned to help us.
We must awaken in spirit to remember who we are
as messengers and caretakers of Mother Earth, and
then to share these ways for all who have
disconnected and fallen asleep. It is through this
path that the First Nations People will be healed.
This healing is from the inside and will not come
from outside of each of us. The material world is
external to us. The spiritual world is inside of us.
In our sleep, we reversed where we look for
answers and guidance.
The Original Teachings tell us that everyone is on
their own sacred path. It is not for us to interfere
with another’s sacred path. And it tells us that the
ways and language given to each First Nation
caretaker where they live are all important in this
work to help Mother Earth.
There is a reason why each has been given their
ways and that these ways should not be mixed
with others. Each of the four sacred colors have
been given their own unique gifts to help restore
the broken hoop, just as each First Nation
Peoples have their unique gifts to offer at this
time to restore the Sacred Hoop.
Many First Nation Peoples cannot see how their
traditions and teachings are important in this great
work, but they will come to see it. The Mayan
nations are the masters of time and understand the
applications of the Great Mayan Calendar and their
knowledge of stars through time.
The great Sioux traditions carry the teachings of
White Buffalo Calf Woman and her sacred gift of
the C’anunpa, the sacred prayer pipe. The
Haudenosaunee carry the teachings of the Great
Law of Peace. African nations carry knowledge of
the first star beings; and so on.
There is no First Nation without their significant gift.
When the leaders of all traditions open their hearts
and minds to share their ways in sacred gatherings,
all will begin to see the importance of the traditions
and gifts they carry, like pieces of a puzzle put
back together.
We cannot see the meaning of one piece until all
the other pieces are put in place. It is time now to
bring your part to share in the Great Council of
Spirit that is mobilizing around the world. For those
who lament that they have lost their sacred ways,
you will come to know that these ways were never
lost. They have been kept for you in the unseen
world, waiting for you to wake up in Spirit.
Let us all hold the vision, in alignment with Spirit
that Truth and Beauty are walking tall once again
amongst all human beings and let us show our
deepest gratitude for that. As we seek to touch the
hearts of all human beings let us remember that
we must not seek to fight evil, but to let goodness
take its place. This is the good way taught to us in
the Original Teachings.
