What I have seen over the decades is that in Traditional Ways, a agreement is made by the spiritual leader, with the Helpers (spirits) of Creator...to help all the two leggeds....once a Traditional Spiritual leaders helps and succeeds in the ceremony, then the two legged is awed by the Sacred Power and changes themselves for the better....many times it is the non indians who recieve help, when all else has failed......inturn as time goes on they mimic the spiritual leader, and confabulate in their own mind that the Helpers are helping them to help others.....that is the mistake...from that mistake they feel they are connected.....to become spiritual leader involves tremendous self discipline, involving FASTING (no food, no water, no sleep and continuious prayer to the Creator, a minimum of four days or more....to establish a spiritual connection where the Helpers appear and a blessing is given to help others....these non indians who mimic do not have a connection, have not been born into the Traditional Ways, by their bloodline.....their bloodline is where their ancestors come from, Europe, Asia, Africa or where ever....they must go back to where their ancestors originated, for Creator assigned helpers in that territory, and it is there that they should connect....just as in this country, Creator assigned helpers that connects with the Red Man......when the connection comes, it is in the Red Man language only....no english, no spanish, no african, no asian.....so over there in these other countries, that anceint language is the language the helpers will speak to a person seeking a spiritual connection....
So, traditionals who knows this and sees these non Indians who mimic the Ways, then they know the person is confused and in the end either hurt themselves, others or their family..........THAT will be the end result of what they mimic.......so we say "they are blinded"........ In this country, the power is placed in everything around us, how we use the power by our spiritual connection is in our DNA, our spirit....so we carry out the Will of the Creator in the Sacred Design of life.......we help all, even the animal nations.....always remembering that all creation was created before our own creation, therefore all creation is our grandfathers and grandmothers.......so traditionals humble themselves before all Creation and the Great Creator....
