Nanish Shontie is a new Native American community based in Monmouth, Oregon.
(click
here for map). The son of the late Rolling Thunder, Mala Spotted Eagle, was
guided to Oregon to establish the Nanish Shontie community. They will be
doing workshops and sharing medicine traditions -- all to help people learn how
to be good care takers of mother earth. They will not charge for medicine
traditions. They do not view themselves as having "the answer,"
and are interested in working with environmental groups and all people of all
spiritual backgrounds.
Nanish Shontie is a native phrase meaning "to ask the creator for a
blessing." It's an inter-tribal, inter-racial native guided community
and healing center based upon Native American traditions and way of
life.
Mala Spotted Eagle was on KPFK's "Something's
Happening" at midnight today. Here's the recording. Unfortunately,
I missed the first 5 minutes of the program. However, what's here is fascinating
and of use to anyone interested in what Native Americans are doing.
If you would like to know more about them, to go their website, Nanish.org.
Their contact information is located
here.
The mp3 file is 8.5 megabytes. The program runs for just under 50
minutes.
