Native American (Navajo) Teaching... This is Offensive to The Holy People
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- In the language of our Navajo People… there is no word for “sorry”.
But there is a strong teaching about forgiveness.
Navajo Historian, Wally Brown, teaches about the need to forgive. And how it can lead to suffering if people don’t forgive.
Forgiveness of family is the most important and eventually forgiveness to all is required.
To not forgive is something that offends or grieves the Holy People.

It rips you apart and poisons your mind. It turns you against the world and makes you unclean. May we all find forgiveness and forgive those who poison us.
Indeed. Years ago I dislocated my elbow in a soccer game, from a dirty rubgy style tackle by an opponent. Dr's set it and I went off to rehab. Years later it was basically fine but still bugged me every once in a while. And when it did that whole event would come flooding back, and I would picture the random dude who hurt me, and wish I saw him on street for payback.
I would get so worked up and angry. One day I had a vision of all that anger I had toward him was trapped in my elbow. And I realized that I was the only one who hasn't moved on from that event. After working on forgiving and letting go for a bit when it came up, my elbow is back to 100%
Absolutely true. Well said👌💃💞
You have shared an amazing example of how this key to freedom and joy actually works. Thank you
oh i forgive them. but they’re gonna pay.
Unforgiving people are prone to hatred. A cold heart cannot forgive.
When you can forgive others then remember to forgive yourself as well. 🦋
FORGIVENESS IZ A BLESSING. REPENTANCE IZ A MUZT. AND BOTH ARE FOR YOURSELF AND OTHERZ. MAY WE BE WIZE N CORRECT WITH HOW N WHOM WE FORGIVE N Y N HOW WE REPENT. GOOD IS FOR THE BLESSED N FOR THE WICKED A GREAT REWARD.
I found forgiving one's self to be the greater challenge.
@@beckiejani7782 same. Why it's so important to do.
Don't forget to forgive one's own self,as well...Beautiful message,as always.
I got to a certain age, maybe early 30s and realized forgiveness is a kindness to yourself to not harbor negativity ,but also to not forget when you see unfavorable situations fall on those who have wronged you and know they don't deserve your piddy.
Yes, they don't deserve pity.
@@donnawoodford6641 thanks for the spelling correction. I was into the fire water when I wrote this and for the life of me could not figure out to spell pity. It's not a word I use often lol
💜👣
Part of forgiveness is not pity, but compassion. What you are describing is neither forgiveness nor pity, but a type of vengeful pleasure in someone else's fall. There is no place in forgiveness in either of these.

I am Muslim but I Love this channel and Navejo teachings ❤❤❤❤
That makes sense.
Ancient is truth is found in many places .. There is much truth in your faith’s teachings too❤
There
Thank You Grandfather. Your words are what I needed to hear. I was invited recently to a family reunion and had decided not to go. My cousin & I have had problems in the last 2 years. Now I will be going. It is time to let it go. God Bless You Grandfather. Your wisdom is greatly appreciated.
much love and many blessings to you
-this is beautifull
I learned how to do the forgiveness action last year. I had come into conflict with my brother and we were both angry. I went on a 4 week walkabout and healed and he stayed angry all though the fall, ignoring his anger, all the way back home to the Philippines. One has to be open to coming back when there is still time because doors do close. Its like that here now. Preserve your peace.
Well said,remember to protect your ❤️
I'm having a difficult time forgiving a certain person that harmed me.Even tho I pray for forgiveness. This video had helped a little.
Words of true wisdom!! To forgive is divine. It shows you love!!! thank you for sharing. peace be too all
Forgiveness is key
Forgiveness is very challenging for most people. If someone has done a person wrong, the person who had been wronged will want revenge because it sends a message to the wrongdoer and everyone else that no one does that thing to them.
Unfortunately, it becomes a vicious cycle.
Thank you for the words of wisdom, sir.
Some people live right because doing otherwise would have the world look upon them in contempt, others do right because otherwise they would feel contempt for themselves.
There's forgiveness and there's letting go of anger. If the perpetrator isn't remorseful, then forgiveness is dangerous. The perpetrator will repeat the offense. But, letting go of anger, doesn't mean that one trusts.
@@Ancel7 agreed. Forgiving can justify someone’s actions, and is more harmful in many cases.
@@ellanina801 @Ancel forgiveness doesn't mean accepting unacceptable behavior. It does mean letting go of feelings of resentment and revenge, but you can still take measures to protect yourself from a repeat offense, while still forgiving them (letting go of resentment and revenge). Forgiveness happens in your heart, mind, and spirit; while preventative and corrective measures happen in the flesh and material realm.
@@simtaur714 Forgiving would be harm in some instances. To forgive also means to relieve someone of their debts, but the person must be worthy of that forgiveness. P€dophilia and r@pe definitely are things that should be accounted for, as they are theft of something of great value. And being punished for being a victim and/or being punished for standing up to abuse are things that do not elicit the need for forgiveness-that is also theft of something of great value. Removal of children from loving parents is also a debt that should not just be forgiven-especially, when those children are placed in the hands of abusers. I do not seek revenge, but I will forgive the debt when the karmic balance is settled. I am peaceful in my pursuits, but I have a fire burning in my heart.
There is a gross imbalance in the world, and too much forgiveness is actually quite toxic. Too much forgiveness is like a beetle that eats the tree and weakens her. If she succumbs to the beetles, then she is is vulnerable to other diseases. When she is strong, she allows the fire to burn, the beetles and all of the other diseases die. The fire returns nutrients to the soil and when the rain comes, they feed her. When this happens, the tree may actually survive. Her seedlings may grow, but they are less likely to survive when the big trees don’t survive and protect them. Seriously, look: anytime there is a forest fire, many trees do survive. Obviously, the fire must also be kept in check or the opposite is also true (so too much of the unforgiving fire is bad). It’s a balance.
When a victim forgives their abusers, they are more likely recede into the same and to be re-victimized. When victims and society forgives the abusers, those abusers will definitely continue abusing. It allows the cycle to repeat. Just look at the statistics (1 in 4 children are SA’d; 1 in 4 women; that rate is higher if you’re Black, Indigenous, or LGBQTIA). The numbers are going up, so forgiveness isn’t working.
If I were to forgive the debt that is owed to me, and if all others like me were to all forgive those debts, then the disease is going to continue to spread. “Forgiveness” is something that is the best friend of abusers until balance is regained.
You cannot stand up to fight injustices without some fire burning, nor without some sense of pursuit of justice. A grey rock will always be just that, and nothing gets done.
You do not have to agree, I do not expect you to. I have more peace in my soul allowing my fire to return nourishment to my roots, and so that I will remain strong for the seedlings so that they will hopefully grow strong and resilient. If I simply forgive all that is done, all those who have died will have died in vain. If I simply forgave, well, I would t be working to break the abuse cycle.

In looking at the other comments here thus far, I am worried that many people have missed your point. Asking forgiveness is a good thing to unburden your own soul, and accepting someone's apology is just as difficult yet just as important for the entire tribe to grow from that experience.
Trust diminishes, after forgiveness. That's why our great god, is solely trustworthy.
Ever read the story of the 'Two Monks and a Woman?'
Yes. I was so hurt by people I thought loved me. Long story. I was very angry. Anger turned into hate. Hate turned into rage. I promise you. They didn't care. My anger only hurt me. I turned to yoga, meditation and walking.
I could finally forgive. I did it for me. Sweet relief and I learned so much. I love my extended family but I have to keep my distance ...
It really isn't about being sorry, it's more about correcting mistakes and that starts with forgiveness.
Your teachings are very wise and timely, thank you!
All your commentary always brings joy to my heart and thank you so much for sharing all the information with us I am Dinea.... I am trying to learn my language and hold on to my ways and I thank you so much for sharing all this valuable information you are so beautiful I pray that you are hanging in there after the loss of your wife I am so sorry sir I lost my wife too about her everyday I send you love and peace and I'm very grateful for your kind words of wisdom. Thank you for being you
much love
These wise teachings are so very appreciated. 😑
You had a major impact into my life from this video... shortly after I watched and took your words in I was tested in that feeling of forgiveness and I took it. So I want to thank you. It was between my mother and I. ❤️
Thank you Mr.Brown, you remind me there are still good humans. The world needs more people like yourself.
I particularly love those colors in the blanket this week! 🐊
Communication is key to any chance of finding a resolution and forgiveness.
me too, love these collours!
So true
Unforgiveness is like a sentence on someone....leaving sadness like...a wake behind you
Always forgive, for dem know not , but Dat nah mean Dat yuh give dem anudda chance fi harm yuh luvved ones , forgiveness does not mean let di coyotes keep bite you, it means trod inna safer place away fra dem 💯
This is very important, and it gets forgotten everywhere. I know that in my religion we put lots of focus on kindness and forgiveness and many people will say that forgiveness is to not acknowledge the bad things that a person has done and that if someone did something bad they shouldn’t have to forgive and move on. But eventually you will have to, because it can cause you so much pain and misery. To forgive doesn’t mean to excuse someone’s actions, it just means to let yourself keep going without a burden of bad energy looming over your shoulders.
First comment , dis have neva happened before I feel blessed. Tanka n praises mi friends, may peace joy inity n irie vybez fill di wull a all a read dis yah, praise di mos igh enuh, one luv !

To innerstand how forgiveness works was my hurdle.
I said it until I felt divorced from negativity.
Letting go with forgiveness is bliss.
Circles back to love.
Love is the path.
I hear you Sir- worked hard on that concept- hafta let go of stuff & focus on what's important - oh yea. .
Trees air, water, bears, wolves, badgers, cougars, lions, all the fling birds, all the animals, etc…us in todays world what beat the people of this land the worst?? Sickness… plagues… what was 2020? Sorry I understand respect I also know what it takes to work in 2022.. no disrespect… have a good night time to shower and wash the sin of this world.. I was not raised a perfect nothing…🐺🥷⭐️🌏
Oh boy I’m pretty sure I’ve offended the Holy People more than once throughout my 50 years 😅 all the Navajo teachings you share beautiful thank you 🙏
Wel said sir.
If I may add, if we are striving to be like the holy people. I think we are also offending ourself when we dont forgive. In the same sense that the holy people offend themselves when they are being unable or refusing to forgive.
Beautifully said. The Bible agrees with the Din'e. Jesus when teaching how to pray to his father taught that you should forgive people so that your heavily father will forgive you. But if you don't forgive then your heavily father doesn't forgive you. And we all need forgiveness. Some a little and some alot, it's all the same to Him. Matthew 6:14,15.
Peace and Ahev
Вы абсолютно правы, надо больше прощать,спасибо Вам ,очень интересная тема.❤👍
You don't forgive for them, you do it for yourself to be free of bitterness.
This is both wise and beautiful. Thank you.
Sir, Mr. Brown, because of you I try to commit these teachings to my soul. Thank you.

Thank you for the reminder to forgive.
I needed this.
The Holy People would be very proud of you for carrying the flame in these times and for continuing to relay the sacred teachings, may the Great Spirit continue to bless you and protect you in the dark days ahead.

thank you for your time and lessons. I'm so grateful for you.
Someone did something to me, on purpose, pure meanness! She did not harvest the reward she expected ($) from this action, which to me, was "revenge" enough to me. I removed her from my circle of friends, in person and on line. Forgiven she will never be (she hurt my dog!) and neither will her actions be forgotten.
Bro if someone hurts a pet they are just evil
Thank You SO Much This Channel is WONDERFUL🌻!🙏🏾💞🌏🌎🌍🌌
Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
It’s very much needed in these times.
Yes your right 👉 thanks for your words...one love 😍 💖💯💯💯💫💫💫💥💥💥👍👍👍.
It’s gracious to forgive as we are forgiven we are taught your lesson are important in your family tradition and your my children are shown at a young age to hug and forgive one another ❤
my life has been saved by: me forgiving myself and others, it is good, even for others

FORGIVENESS of sELF, &
FORGIVENESS of other's is KEY.🔑

Forgiving a real big transgression can take time. It often can't be done in a few hours or days.
Thank you Mr. Brown and Shane...
What kind and helpful thoughts, thank you so much for sharing these with us.☮️
This is so very important and a key to healthy lives. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for sharing this wisdom with your heart and mind. Many thanks to you. Bless you.
Honor and integrity are linked, you cannot have one without the other. These are gifts a person can only give themselves and are gifts they can only lose by themselves.

For your excellent efforts.
Forgiveness is the best thing ever.
When I was able to forgive my parents, it was like a weight was lifted off my heart.
Am so grateful to my grandparents for imploring me to forgive.
All struggle is educational.

Am also grateful for you and all the Dine Wally.
Wado..
asking for forgiveness is a humble act, what is cruel is that the person does not accept it or understand it as a debt. ask for forgiveness must be sincere, and forgive the same. only then will there be peace for all
Thank YOu for your wisdom, I was recently treated in a way that I would not wish any one to be treated. By the closest love. Thank you for this I really needed to hear this it is part of my life’s work to do this thank you
Thank you my dears ❤️😘❤️❤️ God Bless my dears 🌈☀️🔥🦅
Oh my full circle ⭕️ right here . God ordained for sure. Thank you I appreciate your truths . I stay on my path I stay in my lane I finding my way back heart to ❤️
Thank you for speaking on the topic of forgiveness.
Yes indeed, thank you!!
I'm mesmerized by the wisdom. In some areas of spirituality it is believed that becoming wounded by another creates a karmic entaglement that requires healing because it drags down the soul of both individuals.
I thank you so much for your wisdom and willingness to teach. I am grateful please 🙏❤️ Thank you
So powerful words. Thank you. Regards Stuart 😊
I agree 100%. What I have learned in my life is that forgiveness is the one act that can free both parties in any disagreement. It is a burden being lifted off of one persons soul and also off of the other persons shoulders. To not forgive his to leave the burden upon both parties and that in itself is almost unforgivable. Yet, The holy people and our maker have made a way for us to be forgiven So we should also forgive because that is part of the way. That’s what I’ve learned. It isn’t always easy to forgive but it is worth it.
Forgiveness is a very powerful tool of diplomacy as well ,i wish more world leaders would use it more ,than their pride ,love is stronger than pride
Пусть мир немного помолчит
Навахо будет говорить
И жест протянутой руки
Как приглашение зайти
И все прошедшие сюда
Мы будем слушать мудреца
Какой же мудрый тот народ
Где Дух Прощения живет
И надо очень сильным быть
Найти те силы и простить
Остаток горечи забыть
Свободным и счастливым жить

I was just down thinking about my family and their ways which aren't mine and how absent some were, and on these our high holy days of our tribe remembering the bad things this day as tomorrow is our highest holy day - I am seeing this video that brought me out of that low place I was in - and for this I thank you for the mitzvah. You speak of high things, and to my people it is said one should speak in such a way when you get together - I consider this together from far away, as together as we can be as we do not know each other, ''but we all know each other, you know''.
YOU PULLED ME OUT OF THAT LOW PLACE, WHAT A GIFT THIS DAY
Thank you never mention disrespect.😢 just fast hunter😊🐺
Beautiful wisdom
Thank you very much.
Thank you sir.
thank you.
This is so real. Thank you so much for sharing.
Beautiful and important reminder. I am grateful to connect with it. 🙏🕊
Wise words indeed. Thank you.
yes forgiveness is the answer.
Very nice and a way to be at peace and stay balanced. If you let something fester inside for too long or too great. It will consume you in a very damaging way. I love this forethought in the video
Thank you for your wisdom grandfather 🍃
Beautiful pure forgive.
In Time . This teaching is most necessary . Reading the comments means reading different grades and forms of understandings . It reveals the urgent and profound necessity of passing on thoughts about Forgiveness and Thankfulness .
Too, some effects of wrong gone „western“ education are revealing . It depicted how lost souls desperately seek for being taught about deeper values - how to understand understandings . Under standing . Humbleness . It seems to to be severely hard in some situations to sort oneself‘s self out and away fromof single-minded thinking. Communicating community . Communicating in community . A very severe lack of understandings .
Thank you for your Teachings 🪶
That's my biggest issue,man I've really got to work on it 😢🥺😞. Self forgiveness is the worse.
I love your content, this channel is like a few others I've found on YT: high quality, meaningful content but criminally under-followed.
Miigwech for sharing your wisdom.❤
This is primal. Sometimes anger is necessary, but I find it best to use it quickly and then let go as soon as possible, like handling a hot potato. I respectfully challenge your use of the word to "forget" because it's important to remember so that we can learn, but I've found letting go to be nothing less than existential.
When I've really done somebody wrong, I would rather demonstrate that I'm "sorry" instead of saying it by changing -- becoming a person who won't commit that offense again. That's a lot harder, but it's meaningful.
Offense came be taken, never given. Being offended is a response, not an act.
Your culture is so fascinating. Thanks for sharing with us 😊
Thank you very much for your wisdom
Thank u for that. It felt like u, were talking directly to me. I have difficulty with forgiveness. And when I forgive someone, whenever I would see that person; I wonder if I meant it, when I said "I forgive u," bc when I look a the person, my mind plays on what was done to me. And although I can be civil towards that person, I cannot forget.
For me, forgiveness is a process. And yes, it is very hard to forgive someone, who has committed an egregious act towards me.
My mother when she was alive told me; that when u forgive ur not doing it for the other person, ur doing it to free urself of the burden of resentment.
Right on time. Thank you.
More people should hear and learn from all your beautiful lessons...Thank you so much, for the sharing your WISDOM and TEACHINGS in these Videos!!!
Thank you so much I needed this very much. I appreciate you so much. I love you!
That is beautiful, I live by that!
¡Gracias!
Universe, one verse, whole and giving. The world gave to us before we stepped foot here, a giving beforehand, a kind of forgiveness in itself. Thank you for this, truly.
Thank you
I prefer the word compassion. Yes it is good to ask to be forgiven if you have hurt another or vice versa on top of forgiving yourself for stumbling.
If we are mistreated by another to hold compassion releases you from carrying it with you. If within our means we can remove ourselves from abusive situations but if we do not hold compassion we take the hurt, judgements, resentment along with us. Those that wound are not living a good life. Their spirit is distraught and they are lost and suffer due to their mental and emotional state. We can move on and free ourselves from that burden though holding compassion.
