As if we dont all die and bleed and can't control anything isn't enough already in case some numbskulls missed the simple message of loving thy neighbor as thyself It's the mention of the word racism itself that is the culprit of racism because without the word it would have no meaning anymore. Stop giving it power and stop giving it meaning.
I am so grateful to this gentleman and his willingness to share these traditions, history, and values. Thank you to him and to all who have helped to bring this teaching to wider awareness.
I agree this work is very needed and I appreciate the whole crew who have made these videos possible. MY the Grandfather and our Mother keep us always as their children .
I am from south of Europe, Balkans. I asume, knowing my family and Balkan area people, am not blood related to native Dine, or other America tribes...but I feel my spirit so very much at home listening to you, sir. Thank you
Ever since I was a child I felt a kinship with native Americans and their culture. It wasn't until I was much older I found out my fathers grandfather was from the Maliseet tribe of St johns New Brunswick Canada . Your words bring me great comfort elder Brown. I used to live near the little Colorado river between Leupp road and Sunset crater close to the reservation border. I miss the country out there and the Dine people. Thank you for sharing your wisdom. Blessings to you and all the Native people!
@@johndelamontaigne7711 oh yes, of course, you get it all and it just flies over my pea brain. You're soo amazing. I hope one day I can be a RUclips commenter with your depth and understanding.
May you and your family be blessed, may you feel the love you put out into the world returned to you, four times over. Your message to celebrate our connection to our native ancestors makes me feel welcome- I have always been a Guerro, the light skinned kid among my brown siblings and cousins. I knew I was “Mexican” but never realized that could mean I am a quarter Pueblo, the rest being Spanish/European. I was never Mexican or white enough to fit in no matter where I tried to belong, so hearing your welcoming words is comforting.
Such a silly loss to not be able to appreciate all of our beautiful varied colors. We are all unique, we should value that, as well as remember how we are all alike.
I'm a misfit too. It feels like a curse until you find out this is not our true home anyway. We are sojourners, trying to get back to the beings of L💕VE from which we originally came.
A part of my morning prayers is "Life is a gift. Thank You, Heavenly Father, for the life You have given me. Thank You for waking my senses to the awareness, my mind to the appreciation of the wonders of Your creation. Thank You for creating within me a heart that can worship You in spirit and in truth." What this is is thanking God for making me a five fingered being. I simply did not have the expression before. It is my hope that in this time of mourning you can also rejoice that your wife continues through you to have a positive influence in the lives of many, as it has in me.
I love you Wally Brown. I am proud to be Native. and to be a Great Lakes Native. I care for our people, all people truth be told. I am grateful for this life.
This teaching really helped me get through a very difficult period in my life. I am a descendant of the original people of San Antonio Texas. We are the Mission Indians. This I learned just a few years ago. It has been a bitter sweet awakening for me and this man’s words have given me great peace. I am extremely thankful for that.
Thank you for your efforts. Condolences on the loss of your spouse. I hope you see yourself as Grandfather to all the five fingered! Wisdom is rare most other places, but not here with you Sir. Bravo!
I'm in gratitude to share roots of 3 indigenous peoples. Your lessons are sacred food that you share unselfishly 🙏 Also I have sadness and sorrow for the passing of your wife from this world, yet it's a temporary parting for you. Blessings 🙏🐺
Very interesting and beautifully explained, again.🙏 Physicist Neil de Grasse Tyson said: "We are all connected, to each other biologically, to the Earth chemically, to the rest of the universe atomically." After over a decade of viewing and listening to Indigenous Elders of Turtle Island speak I always heard of the two laws but never actually knew them until just recently when I watched a new video from Oren Lyons and he said the two laws were: respect and being thankful. Respect for everything and Thankfulness for what you (each individual) have/has. How powerfully, energetically authentic and simply.
I'm from an island in the south pacific. I watched a documentary on the DNA of my people and learned that we're descendents of southwest natives that traveled south to Peru before crossing the Pacific Ocean and settled in the Mariana Islands. It explained to me why I have a strong kinship to the Dines. Hawaiians are descendents of the Inuits from Alaska. All our arts and customs and traditions are almost paralleled. Thank you for this narrative. We are all connected.
Thank you. 🙏 I love learning from you. I am so grateful to you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with us. I wish everyone, past and present, knew what the Dine people do, that we are all fundamentally the same and we should act like family.
I'm so grateful for your teachings Brother Wally. They have had a real impact on my life. We truly are all related 5 fingered Beings that come from the same Creator and First Man and First Woman. 💗 👋
Indigenous day is everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday everyday from the beginning. Thank you brother. We are here for you, if need us. Sacred OWL WOMAN Texas
Eternally grateful for these teachers who've guarded the Ancient Wisdom for 500 years. Animo familia. Thank you, thank you , thank you. Con amor IMMENSO
I love videos like this one, as it dovetails with lore (which I do absolutely believe stems from fact) from other parts of the world. In less traditional Christian teachings, they teach of the six-fingered beings, who were the children of Fallen Angels, while five-fingered beings are humankind, the creation of God, descended from Adam and Eve, the first man and first woman. This channel is so awesome. Thank you for sharing, sir! I also love hearing your language. When I was a kid/teenager, I tried to learn that language on my own from books, but I couldn't possibly understand the pronunciation. It's really neat hearing it spoken.
Thank you elder for these words. It reminds me to see each and every other five fingered being as my brother or sister. Thank you for this. It brings me hope and joy to sit here and listen to the stories.
I just want to say thank you for sharing your teachings. I think all people's ancestral memories , stories , healing practices, and more really do need to be shared and remembered. I'm Choctaw but I have no connection. So learning about tribes in general helps me to feel connected. Again thank you! I really do appreciate you making this effort!
Love this! We do all come from somewhere. ❤️ I really enjoy this channel. We are all human beings having a human experience.I do not have any native roots but I live in 4 corners region and absolutely love the culture of the native people of this beautiful country.
@@AusDenBergen Yeah, you gotta get over yourself, but I'll answer this: Some people don't know their peoples traditions, and instead take on those around them. It's not cultural appropriation as I'm sure you'll cry, but cultural appreciation. I don't know jack about my German traditions because my mother didn't teach me, to spite her mother. I don't know my Scottish traditions, because my grandfather never bothered to learn and pass it to my father. Would I live closeby to any reservation, if they would have me, I would be happy to learn of theirs. Reading on the internet means nothing compared to having that knowledge handed to you from older generations. Instead, I've had the chance to learn Japanese traditions, though not very well, but I know them better than any other heritage-tier traditions I should've been taught. And before you ask: No, I couldn't learn from the generations before my parents. My Scottish side was all dead before I was born, and my German grandmother was an admittedly cruel woman who sought to destroy lives (and did so beyond what any Karen could hope for).
@@AusDenBergen absolutely nothing, I just enjoy learning and understanding the things around me. I was born here in the US and I’m 5th generation. I find it cool and interesting to learn about. When I visit Chaco, I leave with more questions then answers. I always try to seek to understand. This video is about everyone being a 5 fingered being relating to every human being.
Having lost my wife 2 and a half years ago, I understand the loss and pain. My sincerest condolences. I love the Dine attitude toward all people. What a more wonderful world we would have were we all of that viewpoint. May the Divine be with you always.
Recent European to come to this country. None of my ancestors went to America, ever. However, I always felt a great kinship with these people. I mingled with them, had great friends and much more. I actually admired them for their valiant courage into the face of all odds. As Russell Means, rest his soul, said: they did it to us first - you're next! He nailed it! Watch it happen, my brothers and sisters!
Isn't it true. They (Morgan, Powell, Smithsonian, etc.) hid a lot of the truth about where the Native Americans came from. Now we see the statues being toppled. People out to hide the truth again. People of the same philosophy turning against everything in American history now, taking traditional style art off of helmets to replace it with a W. I highly recommend the book THE NAKED COMMUNIST by Cleon Skousen. And yes, Russell Means is so interesting to listen to. You can't really call him left or right. I appreciate the thoughts he shared. Great food for thought.
@@AusDenBergen That is an important point. My ancestors are from northern Europe. People from other parts of the continent made their way to those lands. Then they punished my ancestors. Tried to make them slaves, or lose their language and culture... All dress the same, all talk the same, all stop learning and growing and just be sick slaves for people of all skin tones, who hide themselves in ivory towers and laugh down at us. Then they came over teh ocean to do it here too. That is why we have Jesus. This is the end of the world, no place left for the devils to hide... Time to push back and take the world back for the good people, back to the indigenous roots, to respect the planet and all life.
I’m so sorry to hear about your wife, my sincere condolences, stay well, stay safe, you are a wonderful light in the darkness of RUclips, and the internet in general. Thanks again for for the gift of your wisdom.
Grandfather, I am now returning to my black heritage. I am a beautiful black woman and I thank you for reminding me of who I am. I love you, forever. Thank you. 🐬🎵
My Dad (born in 1926) often told me he was one 'pinkie' Cherokee, so I was 'half a pinkie'. We always smiled about that, and it made him feel proud, so I did, too. I've never had my ancestry officially checked, so I don't know for sure. I love how Wally makes it sound like such common sense that we all came from two people, a man and a woman, not animals. I believe some day we will be able to see that very clearly, and it will be obvious. I'm really enjoying these teachings, I just started listening a few days ago and it is coinciding with me finally getting around to reading the 'Memories of the Brown Family" book my aunts, uncles and Dad put together in the 90's. Now I'm writing them down along with my own memories for my two adult children to have some day. Blessings to all!
That sounds similar to the philosophy of "we all bleed red". Skin colour, religion, regional or national divisions, they don't matter. We're all human.
Yes, we are all humans. However, we have different interpretations of what it means to be a human. Some say humans are the rulers of the world , we have rights. Others say we are the caretakers of the world, we have duties.
I’m part Cherokee and part Creek Indian and I have attended a Pow Wow here in Northeast Alabama a couple of years ago I got there late but was there to see the closing ceremonies , I have always had great respect for the Native American people and culture but me only having small amount of Native American blood I never really wanted to be one of those white guys that pretends to be Native American because I always felt that took away from the real Native Americans but I will say this when they were there at the closing ceremony chanting and praying I felt something a kind of spiritual feeling I never had before , it was the power of the words or drums I don’t know but it was mystical and it even felt like I knew this it really stirred my soul and I honestly believe it woke something up in me I never knew I had and I believe that’s in all of us !
I am too - part indigenous. We moved when I was a child so I didn't grow up around anything "native" and my native mother died when I was young. When I go to a Pow Wow as an adult (and feeling like a white stranger culturally) the energy (of the spirit world) is unmistakable. I feel like there are dozens of souls/ancestors (on the other side) joining, or watching the dancers and it feels magical. I don't know how else to describe the feeling, but there is more going on there than us "five-finger beings" doing what we do. It really touches my soul. They know, the ancestors, what is in our hearts and that is all that matters despite outward appearances. There is magic in those Pow Wows in my humble opinion. I'm glad you went.
@@d8bn Absolutely I agree it really was a spiritual awakening for me that I just didn’t see coming at all I just thought I’d go to get an understanding of the cultural aspects but it really hit me that was really a special experience and I really wished I had attended another PowWow after that but I felt like I wasn’t Native American enough , I just wanted to learn about my Native American culture more . There is strong spiritual presence during all that I witnessed !
Thats how us Naitves have been praying since the beginning of time. Its the connection to the Universe and all living creations because we are all spiritual beings.
@@andrebegay Yes and you can tell that it’s something that’s been around forever by the raw spiritual power that anyone can feel if they’re there soaking all that in . I mean if someone can’t be moved by that then they just aren’t human ! It’s a beautiful culture that never gets the proper respect it deserves and I believe we all could learn how to be better people towards one another if we take what this man says in this video and live it and have his perspective!
Very much love this talk and its expression of human unity. I also embrace the simplicity of format - I am content simply to watch Mr. Brown sit and talk. He in himself is sufficient; one needs no other images.
All people are perfect. Each with there heretige language and culture. I view it that way. Native people are charasmatic people. Be proud.Olga from Greece
Good advice. Finally started having luck in tracking my own Native heritage aside from just what my mother remembers them telling me. Turns out, I am from a group of Saponi who were adopted by the Seneca during the French-Indian Wars & were living in West Virginia until they were swallowed up by modern society & were forgotten. The name in that family I have in common with Native tribes can be traced all the way back to Roanoke, &, though I have no idea what path it took to reach the ancestors I know of, it also means that I have ancestors who were Chowanoke. Also turns out that another name in that side of our family is a very prominent Shawnee name & we have a relative who moved out west and married into the Apache. As for me, the place I've always lived & grown up was once a sacred place where people could gather all kinds of food & medicine. Though the place is damaged and weak, now, I am trying to acquire & scatter wild seed where I can in order to heal it. Not only that, but my Saponi ancestors always claimed that they came from Ohio originally. There are two burial mounds in immediately neighboring countries which are dissimilar to those elsewhere known to be made by the Adena, Hopewell or Fort Ancient, but have features in common with those which were excavated in Virginia, which the Saponi built, even if they aren't exactly the same, so I've come to the sentiment that this is where I was always meant to be, for whatever reason.
Truly appreciate your time and dedication, I am 1/4 Comanche of the woodlands you Sir are a blessing thank you! May The One God smile on you and yours.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful message- Sooo sorry for the passing of your beloved wife- prayers that she was in peace, as well as for you and your family during this transitional Time…
Do you think there are parallels between the stories of the holy people and the middle eastern stories of El? The traditional teaching he gives regarding the 12 fragments of the 'holy language' that his people have been permitted to keep; To me, having been raised christian, I see vast similarity between that story and Genesis 6, the story of the tower of babel. The people were stripped of the singular language/culture that united them all and they were scattered. Anasazi and annunaki? Could five fingered being refer more deeply to our 5 senses?
Håfa Adai (Hello) from this Pacific Islander 🇬🇺 . I appreciate you sharing your wisdom with all of us. I've came across this channel recently and you have been inspiring and insightful. Ahéhee.
Thanks sir. This teaching makes me proud of my elders and family tree. And let us hold hands (symbolically) as we teach others about our cultures. Native Mexican heritage with Iberian, Celtic, African and who knows what else. Sinaloa/Zacatecas/California
This is true nobody would ever know if I didn’t tell anyone that my grandmother is Menominee. This is something I am proud of. She passed when my mother was a little girl but I know that she is part of me and I am very proud of this.
I am fortunate to be able to say I have a small amount of Native blood on my Father's side. But, then it occurred to me that even though I have a small percentage of Native American blood, the rest of my people from Scandinavia and Germany were also a part of the Native folk from their region many generations back. It's like this wise Man says, "we are all Native one way or another." And, that is something we should all take great pride in as we think back on the countless generations that came before us.
Such beautiful 🤩 teachings ; I wish everybody would listen 👂 to this message “ we all are descendent of holy people ; we are descendent of ADAM and EVA !
My condolences for the loss of your wife. That is a beautiful thought of the 5 fingered being. I have always been proud of having a Native American woman in my Mother's ancestry . She married a fur trapper in the 1600's and lived on Staten Island NY. We never could find what tribe she came from which saddened me.
I love this man. His wisdom is so comforting to me. I always felt like a part of me was missing as I never knew my grandmother who died when my father was very young. He never learned her native teachings. This makes me feel less alone in that regard. I am so sorry for your loss and send you love and healing hugs💕✨
I don't know what you are going through. But I have watched many of your videos & am thankful you share Dine traditions etc. You & family will be in my prayers.
It is the right time that I find this Program maybe I was in a different time When I was teenager but I have in my hearth A feeling about AMERICAN NATIVES good feeling but I am happy listen to you Mr .Wally , I just can said thank you 🙏 For this program (teaching history) 👋🏻🙏
Thank you. Please accept my sincere, yet belated, condolences for your wife.
😭
'anywhere that you are, just be grateful'...best Christmas time message ever...
There would be no racism if we all described each other as 5 finger beings! That's exactly what we all are.
Love it! Amen and amen!
Cept #killerkyle
I agree as well as 5 finger beings we could also teach ourselves that we all are human beings!
As if we dont all die and bleed and can't control anything isn't enough already in case some numbskulls missed the simple message of loving thy neighbor as thyself
It's the mention of the word racism itself that is the culprit of racism because without the word it would have no meaning anymore. Stop giving it power and stop giving it meaning.

I'm really enjoying these teachings, I just started listening a few days ago and it is coinciding with me finally getting around to reading the 'Memories of the Brown Family" book my aunts, uncles and Dad put together in the 90's. Now I'm writing them down along with my own memories for my two adult children to have some day. Blessings to all!
That sounds similar to the philosophy of "we all bleed red". Skin colour, religion, regional or national divisions, they don't matter. We're all human.
This is so true.
Yes, we are all humans. However, we have different interpretations of what it means to be a human. Some say humans are the rulers of the world , we have rights. Others say we are the caretakers of the world, we have duties.
Grateful as always for your teaching Grandfather and for my native ancestors.
Infinite ♾ flowing gratitude 🙏🏻
I’m part Cherokee and part Creek Indian and I have attended a Pow Wow here in Northeast Alabama a couple of years ago I got there late but was there to see the closing ceremonies , I have always had great respect for the Native American people and culture but me only having small amount of Native American blood I never really wanted to be one of those white guys that pretends to be Native American because I always felt that took away from the real Native Americans but I will say this when they were there at the closing ceremony chanting and praying I felt something a kind of spiritual feeling I never had before , it was the power of the words or drums I don’t know but it was mystical and it even felt like I knew this it really stirred my soul and I honestly believe it woke something up in me I never knew I had and I believe that’s in all of us !
I am too - part indigenous. We moved when I was a child so I didn't grow up around anything "native" and my native mother died when I was young. When I go to a Pow Wow as an adult (and feeling like a white stranger culturally) the energy (of the spirit world) is unmistakable. I feel like there are dozens of souls/ancestors (on the other side) joining, or watching the dancers and it feels magical. I don't know how else to describe the feeling, but there is more going on there than us "five-finger beings" doing what we do. It really touches my soul. They know, the ancestors, what is in our hearts and that is all that matters despite outward appearances. There is magic in those Pow Wows in my humble opinion. I'm glad you went.
@@d8bn Absolutely I agree it really was a spiritual awakening for me that I just didn’t see coming at all I just thought I’d go to get an understanding of the cultural aspects but it really hit me that was really a special experience and I really wished I had attended another PowWow after that but I felt like I wasn’t Native American enough , I just wanted to learn about my Native American culture more . There is strong spiritual presence during all that I witnessed !
Thats how us Naitves have been praying since the beginning of time. Its the connection to the Universe and all living creations because we are all spiritual beings.
@@andrebegay Yes and you can tell that it’s something that’s been around forever by the raw spiritual power that anyone can feel if they’re there soaking all that in . I mean if someone can’t be moved by that then they just aren’t human ! It’s a beautiful culture that never gets the proper respect it deserves and I believe we all could learn how to be better people towards one another if we take what this man says in this video and live it and have his perspective!
@@andrebegay Thank you.
Thank you ❤️ I've got native blood from both my grandmother's. Creek and Muskogee Cherokee
Excited to watch
Very much love this talk and its expression of human unity. I also embrace the simplicity of format - I am content simply to watch Mr. Brown sit and talk. He in himself is sufficient; one needs no other images.
My native blood is the greatest thing about me, I love it, and I love you, thank you for helping all of us on our journey!!
I really appreciate your words Elder Brown...they touched my ❤
All people are perfect. Each with there heretige language and culture. I view it that way. Native people are charasmatic people. Be proud.Olga from Greece
I'm learning so much from you. Proud of my Cherokee heritage. Thank you.
I've watched many of your videos and I just want to thank your for reaching out to all of us online to share these traditional teachings.
Good advice.
Finally started having luck in tracking my own Native heritage aside from just what my mother remembers them telling me. Turns out, I am from a group of Saponi who were adopted by the Seneca during the French-Indian Wars & were living in West Virginia until they were swallowed up by modern society & were forgotten. The name in that family I have in common with Native tribes can be traced all the way back to Roanoke, &, though I have no idea what path it took to reach the ancestors I know of, it also means that I have ancestors who were Chowanoke. Also turns out that another name in that side of our family is a very prominent Shawnee name & we have a relative who moved out west and married into the Apache. As for me, the place I've always lived & grown up was once a sacred place where people could gather all kinds of food & medicine. Though the place is damaged and weak, now, I am trying to acquire & scatter wild seed where I can in order to heal it. Not only that, but my Saponi ancestors always claimed that they came from Ohio originally. There are two burial mounds in immediately neighboring countries which are dissimilar to those elsewhere known to be made by the Adena, Hopewell or Fort Ancient, but have features in common with those which were excavated in Virginia, which the Saponi built, even if they aren't exactly the same, so I've come to the sentiment that this is where I was always meant to be, for whatever reason.
Truly appreciate your time and dedication, I am 1/4 Comanche of the woodlands you Sir are a blessing thank you! May The One God smile on you and yours.
Thank you for your continued wisdom grandfather.
An essential understanding for peace

Thank you for sharing this beautiful message- Sooo sorry for the passing of your beloved wife- prayers that she was in peace, as well as for you and your family during this transitional Time…
I know I AM related♾💜💚💛♾When I listen to this incredible wisdom my heart fills with pure joy🙏🏻♾infinite flowing gratitude♾
It's incredible, such a rich perspective.
I AM grateful.
Do you think there are parallels between the stories of the holy people and the middle eastern stories of El? The traditional teaching he gives regarding the 12 fragments of the 'holy language' that his people have been permitted to keep;
To me, having been raised christian, I see vast similarity between that story and Genesis 6, the story of the tower of babel.
The people were stripped of the singular language/culture that united them all and they were scattered.
Anasazi and annunaki?
Could five fingered being refer more deeply to our 5 senses?
"Be grateful" is a message of great wisdom.
Håfa Adai (Hello) from this Pacific Islander 🇬🇺 . I appreciate you sharing your wisdom with all of us. I've came across this channel recently and you have been inspiring and insightful. Ahéhee.
Thanks sir. This teaching makes me proud of my elders and family tree. And let us hold hands (symbolically) as we teach others about our cultures. Native Mexican heritage with Iberian, Celtic, African and who knows what else. Sinaloa/Zacatecas/California
I am sorry for your loss
Thank you Grand Father
This is true nobody would ever know if I didn’t tell anyone that my grandmother is Menominee. This is something I am proud of. She passed when my mother was a little girl but I know that she is part of me and I am very proud of this.
My heart gose out to you for your loss of your wife...thank u deeply for your teaching...
Thank you for sharing your wisdom. I'm grateful for having found your teachings here in this time of life.
I’m proud of my native blood joyful that we teach it my kids daily.
I am fortunate to be able to say I have a small amount of Native blood on my Father's side. But, then it occurred to me that even though I have a small percentage of Native American blood, the rest of my people from Scandinavia and Germany were also a part of the Native folk from their region many generations back. It's like this wise Man says, "we are all Native one way or another." And, that is something we should all take great pride in as we think back on the countless generations that came before us.
Do love your teachings. Thank you as always 🙏🏻 sending love ❤️ to all
What a valuable source of wisdom . TY
Thank you Mr. Brown. ☮️💖🎶
What a BLessing You are , Thank You
Sincerely for your Teaching ✨
Your teachings are so beautiful. Thank you for sharing
Such beautiful 🤩 teachings ; I wish everybody would listen 👂 to this message “ we all are descendent of holy people ; we are descendent of ADAM and EVA !
My condolences for the loss of your wife. That is a beautiful thought of the 5 fingered being. I have always been proud of having a Native American woman in my Mother's ancestry . She married a fur trapper in the 1600's and lived on Staten Island NY. We never could find what tribe she came from which saddened me.
Amen!!! Beautiful and so, so TRUE🌿
Bless you and your wife forever, thank you I’m Native American, thank you for your words they will remain with me in my heart forever 🙏🏽💕
I like this talk , it is so nice to feel we are all connected , as a five fingered being .
thank you.Be blessed!!!
I love this man. His wisdom is so comforting to me. I always felt like a part of me was missing as I never knew my grandmother who died when my father was very young. He never learned her native teachings. This makes me feel less alone in that regard. I am so sorry for your loss and send you love and healing hugs💕✨
