Rupert Encinas or Ba'ag Da. Canku Luta - The Red Road. 

My first sweatlodge ceremony, inipi, was with Wallace and Grace Black Elk in 1979. To this day, it was the best spiritual experience I have had. I was in Papason's, Tantanka Hecate's lodge in Oregon. He gave me the right to pour water and I did so for the Women's Penitentiary in Oregon, plus along the West coast Native American Drug and Alcohol Rehabs, if a medicine person couldn't make it. I received my pipe through the lineage of Frank Fools Crow, through Evelyn Eaton, through Rhio Gabriel. I went to a few of Thomas Mails workshops who wrote about Fools Crow. Fools Crow told him," I've been waiting for you". I sat with Bearheart many years. 2 vision quests, sweats, and Native American church. He had me come by train to work on him several times before he took his journey.

Beautiful presentation! The Red Road is our only hope of survival of our species. Bless you, Mr. Encinas. I am honored to hear your message.

I have walked the black road and I’m ready to walk the red road now. I love hearing all your ways and beliefs and I believe in the great spirit and that we are all connected. Our minds are sick. This is a blessing in a sick world. Thank you for sharing..🦅

Lakotah/Easter Cherokee here proud to walk the Red Road. My Ina always ran on Indian Time. Whenever she arrived …..she was on time. Time is a made up concept of white man. To him everything must have a construct. I am in Washington State near the Yakama Rez. I do ceremony and sweat with them. ❤️🙏🌹

Very much appreciated the singing/drumming as well as the spoken words from this precious man. Brought tears to my heart watching him sing. What I took away from this was the words re forgiving the unforgivable.....anyone who knows that is the red path would be stupid to consider such a civilization primitive. Thank you for making it possible to sit here at home in my old age, alone, yet be able to get my spirit fed.

The only thing left or what Great Spirit gives me is the Red Road. Will of Creator for Me. I am blessed - I love Lakota. I too am backwards - forward 😆🤣😊😇

Wow, learned so much. Love that they keep everything positive and don't focus on Satan or the negative. So much wisdom, if everyone practiced this, the world would be a much better place!

Charles Eastman's autobio I had the great fortune to find. A treasure in my chest of many ❤

I take nothing for granted

Thank you so much Rupert, also for visiting my place here and telling the story of your journey to Estonia. I would like to see the valley of flowers too. ~ 🐇❤🐇 ~

Thank you my brother! I have a past that was hidden from me and my people too. We will live again soon! Lightfoot

I feel like I finally came home. I have endless gratitude for sharing this wisdoms. Its truly the only way to finding inner peace. I pray all of humanity find the red road, and make your red road as wide as you possibly can. We never walk alone, blessings to all . Thanks to Creator and Creation, everything is connected, and everything needs everything. ❤

Thank you for sharing your knowledge. So much love to teach and share. Wopila Waste.

Beautiful wisdoms, I am grateful and humbled, blessed by Grandfather's for sharing the truthful ways, I pray for this knowledge. ♥️🤲🙇‍♀️

Thank you Rupert I do believe in kindness to others I enjoyed this.

Such a kind man 😊

God Bless you Brother. God Bless Don Coyhis - without you I would have no purpose in earth or in heaven ❤

God is Good and God is Great is the first and Great Spirit commandment. Love thy neighbor as thy Self and Do Not Cause Your Children Wrath . On these two commandments hang all the others

Thank you! I learned so much! We have been doing land healing and our ancestors have us using native songs in our ceremonies singing the Strong Woman song, the Honoring Women song, Honoring Man song, the Traveling song and the Water Song. I hope we learn more from what you share here! Blessings to you my brothers for your very sacred work and your Sun Dancing and teachings. I have been looking for a teacher to learn mor and came across this teachings. I send prayers to all my relations!! Aho!

One way and one language / only truth is spoke with the Eagle feather 🪶- our brother is a Holy Man

I am Heyoka so I live what you say about Thunderbeings and they told me too

Thank you sir.

Thank you, teacher. Tlazokamati temachtiniani. The Red Road, I agree, can mean many things. One way I see it is based on Mexicayotl & Toltecayotl, which taught me that our life is like the path of the sun, we rise out of the darkness at birth, and fall back into it at our planting. We have no roots like trees that keep us attached to Mother Earth while we live as people. An important thing I find about the Red Road is that it says to me that we are on a journey. Also, if you notice, at dusk and even more so at dawn there is a red hue in the sky. My ancestors taught me that blood is what holds the suns energy in us, as well as that our energy returns to the sun when we rest and evolve (aka in western thought as dying). The Red Road, it is a slippery path where we can fall into the thorns when we go too far to the right/positive, and too far to the left/negative. So we must stay centered as we walk on our path, and focus on maintaining our balance, so that we are not easily influenced and pulled into extremisms. Balance produces a rect thing/mind/heart/energy/etc., and a rect thing like a flower under the sun will bloom, and produce beautiful colors, scents, medicines and memories. Because all these teachings are connected.. The title Quetzalcoatl, when properly translated means, Rect Energy. With Quetzal = Rect and Coatl = Energy. One who reached this level of personhood, i.e. Quetzalcoatl, would be one who’s energy was centered, balanced, standing rect, and so a fully bloomed personhood, worthy of teaching. And more importantly, leading the community on the Red Road, centered and balanced.

We too are perfect brother now we are remembering who we are 🌹🩸

I have been studying Mohawk, im very amazed how many of the dialects, of tribes from the arctic to Florida, but all so unique to separate tribes, and a much more surprising fact, the story of Manitou, and that of Yeshua, this earth has a great hidden secret, that i hope to unloop before I leave this path

I bust out laughing when 54:37 he says we are all relatives, that's your choice if you don't believe, our mind is all corrupt, He says laughing ," if you like to live in misery, that's good." I about fell out on the floor! Basically he is saying that if you want to continue your hard headed ignorance after I have told you straight up the Reality of life, go ahead, I'll just keep laughing at you. Oh gawd, so funny!
