4. 5. 6. 7. The honor of the people lies in the moccasin tracks of the woman. "A people is not defeated until the hearts of its women are on the ground." "Always do what your mother asks!" The Elders say the men should look at women in a sacred way. The men should never put women down or shame them in any way. When we have problems, we should seek their counsel. We should share with them openly. A woman has intuitive thought. She has access to another system of knowledge that few men develop. She can help us understand. We must treat her in a good way. 8. A spear is a big responsibility. I am one with the Earth. All around me my land is beauty. 9. A man who looks first to a woman's outer beauty will never know her beauty divine, for there is dust upon his eyes and he is blind. But a man who sees in a woman the spirit of the Great One and sees her beauty first in spirit and truth, that man will know "Divinity" in that woman. 10. All women in the world are like the different colored flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Creator, giver of life and source of all human life they must all be respected. 11. The hurt of one woman is the hurt of all women, the honor of one woman is the honor of all women. Show honor and esteem for all women! Consider and treat them with deference or courtesy Women Are SACRED! <><><> Shamanic Vision Issue #6, 1 st Quarter 2018 Page 23
