Recovering The Lost Knowledge of Our First Nations | Chief Bear Cross, Chase Iron Eyes

What wisdom and knowledge is lost within the lineages of our First Nations people? And how can we possibly recover and apply that which has been forgotten? In this never-before podcast with Chief Bear Cross, an active chief in the Wanagi Oyate “Ghost Nation” Lakota Sioux lineage, we hear stories of forgotten knowledge and deep wisdom that will shift the way you think about yourself and your place in the world. Chief Bear Cross is also joined by one of my most popular former guests, Chase Iron Eyes, a native rights and environmental protection lawyer who keeps his roots close to the original way of life. ►Lakota People Law Project | ⁠https://lakotalaw.org/ This episode is sponsored by ►Metal Mark Golden Collectable Art | https://mtlmrk.com Chapters 00:00 Trailer 02:30 Introduction to Chief Bear Cross and the Red Nation 04:46 The Sundance Way of Life and Healing 14:55 The Role of Prayer and Spiritual Connection 20:00 Initiating Contact with the Spirit World 23:44 Connection to the Star People and Origin Stories 36:19 Self-Healing and Inner Strength 41:49 The Importance of Sacrifice in Spiritual Growth 48:19 The Nature of Good and Evil 52:38 The Myth of Ite and the Fallen Angel 57:04 The Coyote as a Protector 01:03:14 The Legacy of Ancestors 01:06:52 The Importance of Prayer and Connection 01:10:25 The Threat to Indigenous Sacred Sites 01:13:48 A Vision Quest Encounter with Bigfoot 01:21:05 Connection to Mother Earth 01:26:44 Gifts of Ancestral Wisdom 01:31:49 Understanding Kola: The Depth of Relationships | Aubrey Marcus | ► Love To The Seventh Power: https://chakaruna.com/collections/books ► Own The Day, Own Your Life: http://bit.ly/2vRz4so ► Aubrey Marcus Podcast: https://apple.co/2ns8zFP ► Ayahuasca Documentary: http://bit.ly/2OrNBTf ► Get 10% off all Onnit Products: https://bit.ly/3LMVArK ►Newsletter https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/em... | Listen to the Aubrey Marcus Podcast | ►iTunes | https://apple.co/2lMZRCn ►Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO ►Stitcher | http://bit.ly/2G8ccJt ►IHeartRadio | https://ihr.fm/3CiV4x3 ►Google Podcasts | https://bit.ly/3nzCJEh ►Android | https://bit.ly/2OQeBQg | Connect with Aubrey | ►Website | http://bit.ly/2GesYqi ►Instagram | http://bit.ly/2BlfCEO ►Facebook | http://bit.ly/2F4nBZk ►Twitter | http://bit.ly/2BlGBAdAd ========================================­===== About the Podcast Founder of Onnit and modern philosopher Aubrey Marcus asks the important questions: How do we find our purpose, wake up to who we truly are, have a few more laughs, and human being a little better?
