I'm Navajo this teaching has been going on since way bck before we became human. We teach our kids and they teach their kids it will go on forever. All stories and songs prayers and respect and responsibility is our teaching. When our dine had to go to war out other place. Navajo code talkers we the ppl pray to b strong mind and wise and many more. This y, United States is what is today freedom for the all ppl. So don't forget dine ppl respect them no matter how they are. And respect all ppl at U S and around the world. Kindness and peace.

❤ these teachings are so beautiful and meaningful. So much wisdom among our indigenous nations.

[@mcgaugh57]

lol they make it up as they go and actually have no clue, just make believe

[@bradkenny1506]

​@@mcgaugh57 True, most of the stories are passed down by word of mouth from a time when humans hadn't the slightest idea of reality. I don't think a multi generation game of telephone that stems from those times is a very reliable method to finding out the truth. But with that said, I'd rather be around indigenous Americans who hold the traditional beliefs more than literally all bible thumping Christians.

[@lindapratt119]

I'm so grateful for all the indigenous people on the Earth. So much wisdom! Thank you.

[@spiritualbliss7855]

Reality is completely different to what we learned from society, science and the educstion system. We have to keep truth alive.

[@nimexwolf]

Reality surpasses spirituality and beliefs, reality doesn't recognize religion or magic or pseudoscience.

I visited Monument Valley in June. Beautiful land. The geography in that entire region is just amazing.

Wisdom from nature - if we would only listen, see, hear, feel, taste and most of all sense her. We need to all reconnect. Most of all we new to respect Mother Nature - Earth Mother - PachaMama - Blessed Be

[@nizhonyclah9689]

The truth of Eclipse is as I was told is: Everytime the eclipse happens ( it's time to pay the light bill) When the sun dies, it's asking for Navajos. When moon does , it's asking for other nationality. That is why after an eclipse there is massive final destination - just like the movie " Final destination" except no one sees the signs.

He's God almighty that put that sun in place, to warm us.

It’s so interesting how every culture has a different interpretation of the solar eclipse. I’m a little saddened by how Americans have been treating it.

It's the same in vedic knowledge in ancient India.

[@mrkaybarusmc5109]

It's nice to see how Navajo beliefs continue to evolve and change almost yearly but somehow are ancient in origin🤔

[@rebeccadieter6131]

@mrkaybarusmc5109 are you Diné? Then STFU

[@nlomatewama]

Back in 1986 when I was in grade school n I attended tuba public school. Their was never a time at school that navajos hid or eat or whatever you guys do til recent years from now ..

[@themadmanwithapen]

I’m so lucky to have watched the eclipse in the Navajo nation. It was a beautiful experience

[@mirandaprice2238]

I say this, all our native ways should b left alone. People who r spiritual just leave it alone. We do not need to explain or show anything of our beliefs.

[@NewMoonRapture]

The sun is symbolic of the Son. Jesus. Dieing and coming back. Natives are some of the scattered tribes of Israel. Godbless

[@merissarose9842]

Kind of weird how “you can’t look at the eclipse..” is said over and over. But you have multiple pictures of it in this video. So contradicting

[@ybrueckner5589]

[@ricardojigashi8100]

Many of American Indian customs are hebrew israelites. Why. ? We are those who are the Gods people

[@f1at111]

Navajo and knowledge should not be used in the same sentence....ever.

[@sabinocardoza5266]

Praise Jesus Christ The Lord of ALL creation! For there is NO other name under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved! Saved from what? Hell fire 🔥

She said, "the earth is our mother, the sky and universe is out father, the moon is our grandfather," and skipped right past our actual father Kor Ha, what you people call the Sun. Disrespectful myopic monkeys smh.

[@stonedoutloco]

How come none of your warriors or chiefs were named " hugs a tree" or "saves a stream? ". Your beliefs sound "new age", "buddhist".

All this don’t mean nothing. Most of these people don’t know if they’re coming or going like this guy is living in a fantasy. People have gone up the deep end they come up with all kinds of stories, and when it’s all said, and done nothing ever becomes of it.👎
