Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 " I went to a holy man and asked him for help. He told me to get on the Red Road. " Pray to Wakan-Tanka (Great Spirit) to help you walk the Red Road. " -- Dr. A.C. Ross (Ehanamani), LAKOTA All Indian traditions, customs and ceremonies help us answer three questions: who am I?, why am I?, and where am I going? Only on the Red Road can we find the answer to these three questions. When we can answer these three questions, we are on the Red Road. When we cannot, we have gone astray. That is why the Holy Men tell us to pray to the Great Spirit and to seek the Red Road. Why am I? My purpose is to serve the Great Spirit. Who am I? I am an Indian who walks the Red Road. Where am I going? My vision is to serve other people. Great Spirit, when I know You, only then do I know me. Help me today to know You.
