Elder's Meditation of the Day - March 20 




"You have wandered away from your teachings. You must concentrate on your spiritual teachings...Don't be sidetracked." 


-- Henry Quick Bear, LAKOTA 


Why are the Elders always telling us to know The culture and listen to the teachings? When we go off track, why do the Elders say, return to the teachings? The teachings tell us how to live in harmony with the Laws and principles of the Great Spirit. Living means life a good life, a happy life. Many of us have grown up without the teachings and the culture, that is why we don't know how to live. To improve on relationships, to treat our children with honor, and to respect our Elders, we need to live by the old teachings again. 
Great Spirit, today, show me how to live.
