My mushum (grandfather) James Ironeagle and my kokum Vernique - TopicsExpress



          

My mushum (grandfather) James Ironeagle and my kokum Vernique Oochoo demonstrated to us children that the spiritual is the most important and all other considerations were secondary, with material concerns being the last. Everything was to be spiritual and if there was a dispute with someone about a material matter their reaction was go ahead have it, if it means that much to you then take it. They would wave their hand as if it was garbage that was being discussed. My mushum James would talk of what a real Indian was and the way he talked about it, regardless of how high his own spiritual advancement was, a real Indian was something higher than what he was. Today you have many people who think they are real Indians yet they are not even close to what my grandparents were..... Strange, strange indeed :) We can only strive to that which is good.....:)
