Thank you. The story of the White Buffalo Women always gives me hope for this world we live in. It's a beautiful story of connection, love , respect for all & sacrifice . Teaches us how we should all be living. With respect for Mother Earth & each other. 🙏🙏
The beautiful new white buffalo announces "Heaven On Earth". Thank God. There are some who are already working lovingly for that realization. Thank you for sharing the story of The White Buffalo Woman. I love you.
White Buffalo Calf Woman is here. Once again I bring the Pipe and Once Again no one Sees or Hears me!!?? Elder Pipe Keeper I have a Bronco that needs Busting. It stands on the property of the building of 33 TeePees in Denver City!! We do the Ghost Dance Again ❤❤❤❤
A newborn white buffalo calf has been photographed recently in Yellowstone Park. The Lakota are surprised that it has happened earlier than expected but it is a harbinger of changes to start.
My family bloodline is Piscataway native and returning to my indigenous ancestral practices has been extremely hard. I feel like I’m putting together a puzzle with no reference photo. I’m extremely grateful for all the little pieces, such as this, that help me paint a general picture.
What an amazing journey you’re on! I’m honored to be a part of your rediscovery. Have you been to the cultural center in Waldorf, Maryland? I recently visited the Chickasaw Cultural Center in Oklahoma and it was a beautiful experience.
Yeah cause are wanderful great white father tried to rob every native son and daughter of there language there spirituality and there culter land and religion and still crap regular on the native acting like the building of a few casinos makes up for like 200 years of murder rape theft and trechurey
Might want to rethink your profile picture if you want to discover feminine divine purity in this world. Women are selling their souls and talking of spiritual truth having not purified their own intentions. I realize you will be enraged at this comment, probably. I'm a sister simply asking you to rethink how you project yourself into this world. These prophecies are for those who are ready for the initiation. How we see women in the news, media, hollywood, and the music industry is a slap in the face to the great Mother. It is an abomination actually..
This is such a beautiful meditation. Thank you. I live in Maine and I did not realize White Buffalo Woman was from the north east of the USA. I always imagined her out west. Now I feel her presence here with me and I know she is one of my sacred ancestors and guides. Thank you.
I was excited to hear this myself, but upon looking into it, we've had 20 born the last century. They're rare, but, it happens. Though, geographically it occurring in Yellowstone is very encouraging.
Love learning about Native American religions, they're so fascinating and a nice change of pace from the wackiness of Greek mythology. I got a few on my to do list down the line
The book I used as my source, Native American Myths and Legends by Richard Erodes and Alfonso Ortiz has been a great resource for me, and I would highly recommend it to you!
Indigenous people of Europe, and Slavic nations prior to the spread of Abrahamic religions they lived no different from the native Americans as far as living in perfect harmony and balance with your local environment and ecosystem, following nature based native spiritual heritage that is unique to your own tribal folk traditions. Respecting mother Earth, viewing organic nature, and life as sacred and divine. All indigenous people lived this way prior to Abrahamism. My ancestors are Slavic on my mother side and Armenian on my father’s side. I was born and raised in Russia, but for the past few decades I’ve lived in USA. If you are of a European origins, please don’t make mistake by thinking that you don’t have the same type of heritage and rich folklore as the Native Americans do. I urge people to explore their ethnic pre-Christian roots, learn about your ancestors that were before Christianity took over, and you will be surprised to find a very rich heritage and tribal ethnic folklore and native spiritual heritage that is unique to your own tribe. Today we collectively call it paganism, but that’s a blanket statement. By exploring your ethnic groups, you will learn all of the same folk stories, you will discover folk art, folk songs and dances, folk traditions, celebrations, food, and their own tribal worldview that was very similar and in some cases identical to Native Americans, and to basically all pre-Christian indigenous peoples around the world.
Beautifully well-said. I think you may enjoy my episode on Brigid, and/or the accompanying podcast conversation with Laura Daligan (a brilliant friend and Celtic neopagan.) We found quite a few parallels and influences between the traditional polytheistic and Abrahamic monotheistic stories and practices. It would appear that at the foundation of just about every tradition is a special place for humanity in the relationship between divinity and the world. I personally see that in the Abrahamic faiths as well, though today that relationship is often very sadly forgotten or purposefully pushed aside to make way for the various political and economic “-ism”s that we often treat like divinity. Thank you for sharing your unique perspective! Я благодарю вас )) I hope that you’ll stick around and share your thoughts on some of the other essays I’ve made! My goal is to have this be a place for us all to share and find the harmonies in these stories, and your voice is certainly a welcome one :)
Jesus healed using natural methods and the Creator's help, much like the Medicine Men and Women of traditional Native tribes. He also appeared to the Paiutes Wovoka, giving them a dance and song to rid the world of evil. Jesus promised them their shirts would stop any bullets from penetrating the fabric. They disobeyed and tried to use the dance and song to rid the world of white people. This led to the Wounded Knee massacre. Their shirts did not protect them. However, when Russell Means and members of AIM took over Wounded Knee in 1973, they were praying in a good way in a tipi. They were so focused on their prayers that they didn't know they were being fired upon by federal agents. After the prayer, Russell went outside to see casings all over and found bullets lodged in the tipi fabric! They were protected because they were praying in a good way. 🪶
Thank you, I agree. I am also part Slavic, Ukrainian (Jewish) , Iberian,Welsh, Scottish, German and some Native American. A real vegetable soup. I have been exploring the stories for much of my life, especially the Goddess ones....
@@jandunn169 that’s wonderful! Thank you for sharing with me. I’m always glad to hear when people tell me that they are exploring their ethnic roots. Continue your spiritual journey, and good luck to you. By the way I absolutely hate the fact that Russia and Ukraine are at war. What a shame that Slavic brothers and sisters have to come against one another. I am so against this war
@@mythosandlogos thank you very much. I will definitely be very happy to check out your information on Celtic neopaganism. I have briefly looked into Celtic mythology, and I absolutely love the Tuatha De Danann
I am not a Native American Indian. But I love stories like these. If we can learn to listen to them, I think they may help us in some way. Keep passing them down I say!
I come from a similar place as you, and am so grateful for those who have shared their stories! I try to be like an amplifier for the stories that are shared with outsiders, adding my own reflections and thoughts because we are each affected by stories in our own personal way. Even through a like and a comment, you help RU-vid suggest these stories to more, so thanks for doing your part in keeping these stories alive, too!
This makes me feel immense gratitude for our buffalo relatives. They laid their lives down for the people. They took death from the indigenous people in the form of extinction. They fullfilled their responsibility as our caretakers and providers. I miss them dearly.❤❤❤
@@Erindawn711 ending of the film with the man standing a top millions of bones so smug and proud like that. Epitomized the attitude and lack of respect for literally everything..
Wah! Lovely story. Thanks for sharing! It is especially potent currently since I just read a report of a possible white buffalo calf having been seen recently. Can’t. Remember where though. But I feel it is right on time- coinciding with thee possibility of nuclear war now closer than ever. But the emergence of the white buffalo calf reminds us that as the entire world may be going completely insane, we do not have to go with it! Each of us can at any time, choose to widen the scope of our prayers and our heart to include our entire Human family, as the Native Americans always have and live our life with more thankfulness for everything we have been and continue to be given and to learn to be grateful for those things and no longer continue to be so needful and forever unfulfilled in life. I hope peace and joy and love for all life, find their way into everyone’s reality, during this time of “choosing”… ❤
It is one thing to have these things in our culture and tradition but quite another to understand the seasons, the land, the waters, the trees as a gift from Great Spirit . We in the west are constantly losing our way and the results tell us this. The Native American peoples are teachers of truths of nature and the self . These are Holy Truths that only the wise can listen to and implement
I read a book, “How To Read Nature,” by Tristan Gooley, with different exercises for connections with the natural world. He said when he does them in Japan, people say they’re very Japanese; when he does them in Germany people say they’re very German; when he does them in the US people say they’re very American. There is such a human connection to nature, and we have a lot to learn from cultures which are less removed from that.
Is the sacred pipe made out of willow wood? I love the Buffalo calf woman. A holy woman bought peace to the. Lakota and showed them sovereignty. Thanks for sharing.🔥
I’m not sure of the wood; I know that the original pipe is said to still be kept by the Lakota to this day. Perhaps someone here of Lakota descent or more directly connected to the tradition (I am but a friendly and sympathetic outsider with a talent for relaying stories) could answer more.
This was such a beautiful story/memory of a sacred gift to all of humanity. I feel and resonate deeply with the indigenous tribes and their spiritual belief systems.I often think how wise the creator is in conveying these truths to us all but also I feel a deep sense of gratitude to the Elders of all of these tribes for preserving and sharing this wisdom. With us❤
I had a turtle necklace except mine was amethyst.I was also nicknamed the Great White Buffalo by a few of my friends.I thought it would be interesting to check out this video.
This story touched me in ways I could only describe by telling some of my own stories. I honestly hope I get to do that, albeit carefully and respectfully 🙏
Thank you for joining in this study of the Lakota story of the White Buffalo Woman! PATREON: www.patreon.com/mythosandlogos I believe this story provides an excellent picture of the key values shared by many Native American cultures. While we may already have beautiful preconceived images of Native American cultures, studying the stories at their foundations provides a far deeper and fuller picture. The Chanunpa Sacrament is an excellent re-presentation of the traditional Lakota values and worldview. Leave a comment to let me know what you think, if you learned something, or if there's something we missed!
@@DarkhorseDescendant Thank you for your comment. My intention is to tell a story to an audience and reference to the person who originally told it; no different in my intent than writing an essay or a book. This channel covers stories from all around the world, with the goal of creating mutual respect. I also make a point to only share stories that have already been shared with outsiders (as Lame Deer shared this story with Richard Erdoes, a Hungarian-American author.) For transparency, I do collect Patreon donations (in most months I break about even or come out about $10 in the green, since I support others) and run ads on RU-vid, which I limit to avoid midroll ads. When the channel first became eligible for monetization, I actually ran a poll to gauge audience feelings on monetization, which was decidedly in favor. All in all, when you consider how much time I put into creating these, I probably come out a bit below US minimum wage. I’m fortunate enough to have a day job and not need to depend on this for a living. So, in short, while this project does have some commercial impact, I hope it is clear that I earnestly try to do that as responsibly as possible.
There’s only one sacred calf pipe . Your right about the other pipe the other pipe is in the hands of all pipe carriers. And usually the there’s a pipe for council or when all the head men got together to discuss what was our next options war or peace or movement to a new area. And we never called it a peace pipe that’s a wasicu telling

I had not realized it until I found your video but I saw the White Buffalo Woman in a dream. At first I thought this woman in a white dress and black hair and dark skin was my wife but she was too tall to be my wife. I was frightened and awoke when I noticed her floating over my computer desk but she didn’t try to hurt me or even say anything but I know it was her now and it gives me peace to know my ænima is now developed
Thank you! John Fire Lame Deer, the main storyteller I sourced from, has a lot of fantastic tales (including my most recent Thunderbird video.) I strongly recommend “Native American Myths And Legends” by Erdoes and Ortiz as an excellent collection of stories! Thanks for coming by :)
Subscribed. You are a wonderful human. I don't meet them often living here in the States... As an ancient soul who has been incarnating in many countries for thousands of years (much I can still remember) I came to incarnate in this nation in the final days to share this wisdom myself. I was thrown out like garbage in America by many, but particularly by other women who didn't see me as "hip" enough to run in their social elite circles. I wonder how many other great sisters in spirit were denied in this nation in favor of the superficial, the lying temptresses, the ego-maniac social media addicted narcissists, and those who follow them in America. We are truly living in those last days. We have forgotten what the holy mother truly is or what her face truly looks like. We have thrown tomatoes at her and forced her out of this land. The great shift cannot not come soon enough. I pray that the universe unleashes upon this earth the same amount of suffering which was inflicted upon the Mother. She was traded in for a a basket of lying vipers, male and female agents who serve the wrong "Father" and his band of women who claim to be sharing holiness while sharing nothing but manipulation, deception, and a mask. America now stands as the high chair of the Satanic forces..
Could you maybe keep your bigotry and hateful lies to yourself? There is not one single Satanic individual running anything in America, stop blaming uninvolved parties for shit you don't do anything about yourself. Also, check your ego.
Uh oh looks like your reply to mine was removed! I'm gonna bet I know exactly what it said, something about how I'm apparently doomed or whatever. Hope your day is a stinky as your irrelevant opinion ❤
On August 20, 1994, a white buffalo calf called Miracle was born on a farm in Janesville, Wisconsin. She is believed to be the first white buffalo calf born since 1933. It is important to note that Miracle was a very rare white buffalo and not to be mistaken with an albino buffalo. To the American Indians, the birth of Miracle was the fulfillment of their legends, as if the Great Spirit wished to bring hope and peace to all nations and people. As of today, the last known white buffalo calf, Baby, was born July 4, 2012 in Avon, Minnesota, but sadly died two weeks later.
@@mythosandlogos Thank you for noticing my work. Us Americans get hung up on names, but this thing is so vast the only way to break it up is into concepts. They all represent The One True God and The God one.
I have some very similar struggles in dealing with our modern world. I’ve found that time in nature helps; the most recent video on Forest Bathing was really nice for me. It helps me to remember that there is something greater out there than us. Best wishes ♥️

As a pipe carrier, sweat lodge water pourer and Sun Dancer I will say well done. One request though , use Lakota instead of Sioux . Sioux is a French word meaning “ Snake in the Grass” most likely a name given to them by a neighboring tribe that didn’t like them . The same way we might call a group of people we didn’t get along with “ Those A.. holes on the corner “ Be at love
Thank you! I have learned a lot in the course of making these video essays, and hope that I never stop. I'm really glad to hear that you're taking such an active role in your culture, too. It's really important work!
Yes the native American culture certainly had wonderful aspects. It's spiritual approach was extremely respectful and honoring of Creator and mother Gaia. And yet there is an aspect to some of the native American tribes that is not often considered. There were tribes such as the Lakota, the Cherokee, the Apache murdered and raped and destroyed many Indian nations. It wasn't only the white man who did the murdering.
Thank you for the effort. I think you should have mentioned how the bison (buffalo is not the proper name) were shot from trains to wipe them out, trying to starve the Natives both physically and spiritually. The pile of skulls was testament to that.
As men become the likeness of the Great Spirit they see, bringing life into this world. Mama's are waking in the Great Spirit who gave her the place man wants to take. His inheritance is seed. Hers is the earth. To take what is not his he destroys himself. The woman who gives man her place loses the Great Spirit who can not be corrupted.
