Prophecy of Crazy Horse

 

"Then he was amazed to see that dancing under the tree were

representatives of all races who had become brothers..."

 

This was passed on by Chief Joe Chasing Horse, a relative of Crazy

Horse. He translated it from the words of a grandmother who was

present when the words were spoken.

This is a statement of Crazy Horse as he sat smoking the sacred pipe

at Paha Sapa with Sitting Bull for the last time, 4 days before he

was assassinated. Many of these words are often repeated. There is

one line often left out, that of the "young white ones".

 

"Upon suffering beyond suffering; the Red Nation shall rise again and

it shall be a blessing for a sick world. A world filled with broken

promises, selfishness and separations. A world longing for light

again. I see a time of seven generations when all the colors of

mankind will gather under the sacred Tree of Life and the whole Earth

will become one circle again. In that day there will be those among

the Lakota who will carry knowledge and understanding of unity among

all living things, and the young white ones will come to those of my

people and ask for this wisdom. I salute the light within your eyes

where the whole universe dwells. For when you are at that center

within you and I am that place within me, we shall be as one." --

Crazy Horse

 

 

 

 

"He saw his people being driven into spiritual darkness and poverty

while the white people prospered in a material way all around them.

But even in the darkest times, he saw that the eyes of a few of his

people kept the light of dawn and the wisdom of the earth, which they

passed on to some of their grandchildren. He saw the coming of

automobiles and airplanes, and twice he saw the great darkness and

heard the screams and explosions when millions of people died in two

great world wars.

"But he saw, after the second great war passed, a time come when his

people began to awaken, not all at once, but a few here and there,

and then more and more, and he saw that they were dancing in a

beautiful light of the Spirit World under the Sacred Tree even while

still on Earth. Then he was amazed to see that dancing under the tree

were representatives of all races who had become brothers, and he

realized that the world would be made new again and in peace and

harmony not just by his people, but by members of all races of

mankind"
