Crazy Horse - Lisa Gerrard & Jeff Rona

"When I was a man, my father told me something about that vision. Of course he did not know all of it; but he said that Crazy Horse dreamed and went into the world where there is nothing but the spirits of all things. That is the real world that is behind this one, and everything we see here is something like a shadow from that world. He was on his horse in that world, and the horse and himself on it and the trees and the grass and the stones and everything were made of spirit, and nothing was hard, and everything seemed to float. His horse was standing still there, and yet it danced around like a horse made only of shadow, and that is how he got his name, which does not mean that his horse was crazy or wild, but that in his vision it danced around in that queer way.

It was this vision that gave him his great power, for when he went into a fight, he had only to think of that world to be in it again, so that he could go through anything and not be hurt. Until he was killed at the Soldiers' Town on White River, he was wounded only twice, once by accident and both times by some one of his own people when he was not expecting trouble and was not thinking; never by an enemy.

I came to this earth from the world unseen ~ my people once walked this earth in freedom ~

They could roam the land where no one claimed ownership ~ it would seem now in the name of civilization humanity claims ownership over each nation ~ we are no longer free to roam Mother Earth without the forwarding of papers and documentation to identify our brothers and sisters

[bluelotuspetals]

@2112LAKOTA we ARE the land..how do we sell our mother..aye

[CrazyHorseAvatar]

@TheSystemRevolution long live crazy horse

[TheSystemRevolution]

Crazy Horse we understand now was not so crazy, but all those white fools to follow, would certainly prove they themselves to be the insane from their ideologies and afflictions ... Crazy Fools you were for not listening.

[indyinnz]

This is most definitely John Trudell's Crazy Horse....

I love this video...no one does own the land. Mother Nature is speaking up now she has been disrespected long enough. The song is haunting and beautiful.
