Choctaw Powwow: Dancing

[rainbowaon]

astral israel in the 60s sure was cool

there was an angel and a candle and many a wise one and a fool

and mystical love by the river where amrita flows

[rainbowaon]

and a melody in our spirits like we could never know

and the rain fell like no time has come or born

and all at once singing, the moon and the morn

like the fairies still rave and yonder fertile grave

a living stave with the yomos love made

and growing in truth and woven in grace

there is the worlds of the wonderings all over our face

in the grass where the spirits leave many a trace

[rainbowaon]

and the true torah is written, by nature's ways

come shining light by which we eat,

heaven is all around, and we all take a seat

among Ylina, the mountain child, where the sidhe bring good cheer, in the wild

kindness of berries and mushrooms do leave them among pumpkins

red blazy skies, and the love of everything in these eyes

everyday much passes, all around the yomo

[rainbowaon]

as its ever been, the cows and the techno

and the rivers and the sticks, i watch them and sink into the mist

with the mystics who live in the herbs, like liberating words

poems are alive i am merely a seed a seed with nine lives

let good visions come as we walk among the sun, a poem, where the fates would

take you into another place, through the tunnels which linked jungles,

the tree of life, the paradigms in every direction, the worlds, the wisdom

[rainbowaon]

the introspection. i wait in many moments sinking into you,

gentle genius, i remember the way it really is, the visions deepen

and take us away, the true medicine there, deeper than any trip

its beyond all that now, the tree of life

all things, the vibrations the tides of the spirit each year

nature, deep rhythms, earth songs,

[rainbowaon]

we so distance journeying in so much chaos among the trees good day and blessed be, say the sidhe how the world flows, this divine love which moves all things let it be, in these images, which are the nourishment of all with true eyes the magic of yoga which renders paintings life thus is the scope of this art, and yet i am one molecule, yet of me you make a galaxy, there is no difference, the mushrooms, vast and small or are they just illusions, opposites in the end nothing at all OLAN DITA!

@19bellahoney, check yourself chick. Native American are not tbe only culture in town. I say costumes because they are not everyday wear. As you also missed tbe fact that. I am a Scottish American I also would call what we wear costumes even though they also would be " traditional". Don't get caught up in this pc bs.

[rainbowaon]

@sassylassy01 peace love unity respect

[jst601]

Thank you for this. Having Red Man blood in my family history makes me thankful every time I see the beautiful Indigenous people dance & sing. Wish I had known this was going on. My family would have been there. Do they hold a MS PowWow every year? Awesome video. Please keep them coming. Mississippi Choctaw are beautiful FIRST NATION PEOPLE!!

[RiverRatQueen13]

@jst601 Yes, I am pretty positive they have powwows at the Philadelphia reservation quite often through out the year. This was one of the larger ones. There are a few more videos from this powwow on my channel if you want to give them a look.

Thanks everybody for your comments! I am also Native American and I love the passion and unity among our community.

May all your glasses be filled.

@RiverRatQueen13 We are having a Metaphysical gathering in Greenville Ms. and we would like to kick off our ceremony with a drum group and blessing. Who could I contact?

[MrZrock7771]

@jst601 Native Americans aren't red ,they are brown. Europeans are red.

[sassylassy01]

I love the costumes. Man that is some gorgeous fringe. I am mostly scottish on my fathers side but I like a lot of different cultures. It is wonderful to see people celebrating their heritage. Keep up the good job.

[19bellahoney]

@sassylassy01 not trying to be rude, but thy are not wearing costumes, costumes is what you wear for holloween....

"traditional wardrobe" would sound more appropriate

I just found out that my grandfather was a Choctaw Indian, making me part indian. After watching this video, I feel as if I was introduced to a missing part of me that I never knew of. Its soo cool to see my my people get together and have fun. :)

[bashayoyojj]
