Elder's Meditation of the Day - June 9

 

 

Every part of this country is sacred to my people. Every hillside, every valley,

every plain and grove has been hallowed by some fond memory or some sad

experience of my tribe. Even the rocks, which seem to lie dumb as they swelter

in the sun along the silent shore in solemn grandeur, thrill with memories of

past events connected with the fate of my people.

 

---Chief Seattle, SUQUAMISH

 

Native people say the Earth is sacred. Some places on Earth will feel more

sacred than others. You can often feel the sacredness of these places because of

what has happened on them. If you do a ceremony on a certain place and return

later, whatever happened before will still be there to help you. Even if someone

you didn't know did something on the Earth and you come along later, the powers

will be there to help you. This is why the Earth is sacred and these special

places are sacred spots.

My Creator, let the powers of the sacred places help the people today.
