1 comments about Sacred Feathers: The Reverend Peter Jones (Kahkewaquonaby) and the Mississauga Indians (Kahkewaquonaby & the Mississauga Indians).
- This is the story of the Reverend Peter Jones,(1802-1856) (Kahkewaquonaby), a Methodist missionary and a Chief of the Mississauga.
Doanld B Smith, a History Professor at the University of Calgary, writes an important story of the conflict between the First Peoples and the Europeans in the first years of settlement of south-Central Ontario. We see this interesting man in the context of the British settlement in Canada at a time when the new nation to the south (the USA)were forcibly moving the Cherokees and other eastern tribes to west of the Mississippi. That this did not happen in Upper Canada is to an important extent due to the leadership of this one man who could interpret the Europeans and Native Peoples to each other.

1 comments about CULTURAL CODE WORDS OF THE HOPI PEOPLE.
- I bought this book based on this quote in the Preface: "Wise men and women say that the greatest spiritual challenge facing "civilizd" human beings today is to regain knowledge that has been lost -- knowledge of our oneness with each other and nature -- and to return to lifestyles that reflect this oneness." In my thinking: therein lies the answer for personal peace and happiness and the hope for peace in our world. The author -- who is an acknowledged authority on different cultures -- explores through the venerable Hopi people of North America their cultural code words that anchor them to the spritual side of their nature and also the world at large. He masterfully weaves the information to provide a "prescription" that we can utilize to learn to align our lifestyles and be in accord with our own nature. In so doing, we can learn to live as close to spiritual bliss as our inner selves will allow.
