Elder's Meditation of the Day - October 31
"One is not born a Tewa but rather one is made a Tewa... once made, one
has to work hard continuously throughout one's life to remain a Tewa."
--Alfonso Ortiz, SAN JUAN PUEBLO
Being Indian is being spiritual. It is not the color of our skin. Being
Indian is how we think. We need to learn our culture, our language, our
dances, our traditions and customs. It is one thing to know these
things, but another to live them. We need to spend time with the Elders
and get their guidance. We need to go to the mountains, woods and
desert to pray. Being spiritual is the way for us to think right.
Walking the Red Road and thinking right is the greatest gift we can
give to our children.
