>"Times change but principles do not. Times change but lands do not.
Times change but our culture and our language remain the same. And
that's what you have to keep intact. - it's what's in your heart."
Oren Lyons, ONONDAGA
Going back to the old ways doesn't mean giving up electricity, homes,
and cars. It means living by the same principles, laws, and values that
our ancestors lived by. This will allow us to live successfully in
today's world. The spirituality our ancestors lived is the same
spirituality we need in these modern times. There are too many
influences from TV, radio, newspapers, magazines, and negative role
models that are guiding our lives in a bad way. Our stability is in the
laws, principles, and values that our ancestors were given and that our
Elders teach us.
>Great Spirit, let me live my life in a spiritual way.
Oh Creator and Ancestors, I will keep on the path that has been chosen for me. For we all have our paths to walk, each different and each for a purpose. Let us walk the talk.
