Navajo Teachings: Do This For A Peaceful Life 

👍

❤️

I love you too!!

Everyone except Steve. Fucking Steve.

Shajingpa Please forgive me, jijobau I forgive you

This is true

I agree 100%. It's very hard to forgive when you are being abused.

Do you want to go golfing with me

One thing my walk with God has taught me is yes forgive but also don't allow any further abuse or neglect or mis treatment. You can forgive safely from a distance and not allow that person back into your life if you have to. For a time I had to do this with my own father. He just didn't put the respect and time into our relationship that I needed and we were both adults. I forgave him but there was a time I distanced myself and my family from him and his new family because it was too toxic and painful and stressful. I didn't want my kids growing up being brushed off by their grandpa because he had better things to do...the way he had done to my sister and me our whole lives. Eventually he came back around and was asking for forgiveness. We gave it to him. He only lived for a few short months afterwards. We made restitution but by then it was too late. He wasted so much time we could have spent together but that's OK because I am grateful for the time we did have and the conversations that were hard that needed to happen in order for me to forgive. It helped me heal. Anyway that's my story the short version just sharing in case anyone is going through something and reading this helps.

Very true, i think ppl are getting confused now thinking "Oh i have to forgive this person for my own good and i have to still allow them in my life even tho they are very abusive. You should forgive but if they stole money and you can get it back legally you def should and don't be around them anymore at least not until they have done a lot of work to change and HAVE changed for good!!! And most times they won't change so protect urself from the narcissist.

They are all around us, if we but listen. But first we must silence the monkey chatter of our own minds, constantly reminding us of how things are and should be..

I'm happy my friend. Story telling is a huge part of native life. If you get a chance sit in. Enjoy yourself. Bring the family. 😇

Very interesting...👍

@@1CT1 we are not heathens. we had God before the Bible.

My siblings and I fell away after our parents passed away and the eldest son (my beloved big brother) was brutally murdered. No one will "step up" to lead the remainder. As the youngest I saw this and repeatedly tried but the resentment was absolutely stunning. Have not given up but they are a stubborn and prideful group.

I haven't talked to my sister in 3 years because the last time I saw her she was upset that my niece was moving out and hadn't told her. Once my neice left, she took her anger out on me. I refused to get angry... That is until she screamed out "I hope you die! I want you dead right now! I mean it, I want you dead!!" I got up and left and haven't spoken to her since. She lied and told others in the family she never said it. It was a horrible thing to have someone scream at you. But if she came to me and said she was sorry, I would forgive her.

You don't need luck! You already have the right frame of mind! I send you peace & love xoxo

@@cynthiacordell4639 bless you for never giving up! I decided I can't force my sister to be my sister! For my own well being is why I quit trying!! I have a lot less stress

@@ManyfiresWoman I have no relationship with my mother bc she allowed her husband to abuse us and stayed with him and is still with him. She has never asked for forgiveness. I would like to speak with her before she dies but I won’t go to her. I feel like she should come to me and ask to be forgiven. Until then, I’m completely fine being away from her. I don’t hate her. I just don’t want to be hurt any more by her and her husband.

And do no harm 🙏💚

When you are kind no harm is done.

I thought there are many commonalities to the Buddha teachings

@@Vrin137 and in secular Judaism

@@philippa5004 Indeed, many ancient faiths have similar.

Many indigenous cultures around the world hold these beliefs. They are all very similar in their practical wisdom.

@@Spiritlife01 Every culture on earth is indigenous to somewhere, to some place. White people are indigenous to europe, Mediterranean and middle east. Except Berbers, white people, indigenous to north african mountains of Algeria y Morocco. Black people are indigenous to Africa, Papua New Guinea and Australia. Asians are indigenous to Asia. Polynesians are indigenous to pacific islands. Indigenous American nations are indigenous to the americas, which DNA has proven is not Asian DNA as white supremecists & black supremecists still claim so never migrated from Asia, albeit a small group of Indigenous American people did immigrate to Siberia according to DNA. And the Ainu are indigenous to Japan. Ahe'hee.

@@SoldierDrew Yes, every culture is indigenous to somewhere but all life started in Africa and we were once all the same. People changed based on their environment and the process of elimination called evolution. If you’re a believer in the Bible and have read it, the descriptions of men does not match white people. White people are not indigenous to the Middle East. I noticed that replacement going on. And some travel site trying to combine European and the Middle East as one. That is why the European Jews kept getting skin cancer when first given Israel. The fact that you used “black supremacy” as though it hold any power to make any change or dominance also says a lot about you as a person. There is also such a thing called scientific evidence-you should lead with that. It’s not hidden and the Israeli scientists have also added to it. The people of the Bible did not look like the ones in movies.

@@SoldierDrew Peace Onearth was saying something positive but you took it to another space, so I responded.

Yeah, I’m missing that medicine too.

Forgive but don’t forget. They have shown you who they are. Forgive yourself fo overestimating them. If they have changed they will take action to prove to you.

@@elsagrace3893 very good point.

Yep. Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die. ~ Buddha

@J C what another Porn site. ? Prayers for u.

Me too. There is a huge rift between me and my daughter right now.😥

School really doesn't teach anything about life. The things that people really need to know.

Schools teach subjects. Parents/families should be teaching children about life. It basically boils down to the Golden Rule kindness forgiveness. The teachers wouldn't need to teach if kids learned it before they ever got to school. Or like a little book called Things I learned in kindergarten taught. Hold hands be nice listen share be nice ....

You have said a mouthful. Good common sense values are being traded for a politically correct, New World Order. Kids shall not pray in school; however we can sit around talk about magic, witchcraft and remove the Ten Commandments from The Courthouse lawns while statues of Baphomet go up nearby. The further we get from our creator, the closer we get to a cesspool. The real world is trading monetary for the spiritual. As a veteran, when they try to remove The Constitution that’s when Betsy comes out from my closet. Gods blessings to all!

So so true

It used to be, that’s why most religions are very similar

I agree 💯😊💛🧡💚💙💯👍👍

That's funny because I do it the exact opposite... I hit the like button and I listen when he talks. Partly because of slow internet and partly because I don't want to deprive him of his thanks by forgetting to like a video. He's really been doing some incredibly wise and profound messages lately.

Me too 👍🏻

Periodt!!! 💕💕💕

I've been smoking and waiting for the other person to die

@@wsp995 Exactly!

I've heard: "Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die." This quote is about harboring anger you may have toward another person. The anger is death to the one who harbors it. I'm glad the words of this quote can be changed yet have the same meaning. 💖

The Buddhist version of that is drinking poison. Great lesson that forgiveness is mainly for ourselves.

Hmm, :)

You are BRAVE. May you receive many blessings in your life :)

You are a powerful, beautiful soul, TreJ, and I believe God will use you mightily in the coming years. He has been preparing His Rainbow Warriors for battle. Continue to stand strong, Dear One! 🔥🕊🔥

Forgiveness is the key

That is a good prayer.

Hey Dave, this is Art. Just curious if this is a small world event

@@artframirez hi Art. I'm confused as to what event you mean

The video of the Navajo man reflecting on forgiveness

@@artframirez probably not. My guess is there is currently so much anguish and rage directed at so many these days politically, that we may have to forgive those that have wronged us in order for the cycle of anger to end. I'm guessing it's an ongoing process.

Me too.

The world is listening. You have I have. The world at the moment is caught between denial and acceptance of who we are and who we should be. You are feeling the grief of it. For your peace accept the world for what it is.

Yup…

Thats true

Harmony in your own heart brings you to wisdom, both internally and externally. This man feels great harmony in his own heart.

I guess I forgive anyway knowing that some people will never admit wrongdoing nor do they feel remorse for hurting/harming me. Justice will come.

Then change the word to "releasing" them. Put down the burden of wanting them to change accept the lesson. That's where wisdom comes from. That also means you don't have to accept them in your life or deal with them, it's OK to walk away.

Forgiveness is relieving a person of a debt you perceive is owed to you.
