We know from our ancient Indigenous teachings that the Sacred Eagle of Humanity has two perfectly balanced and harmonious wings—one representing women and one representing men. In all our relationships as women and men, brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, we must join together to eliminate all forms of disrespect, mistreatment, prejudice, or lack of sharing in the responsibility of raising all of the humanities children.

Have not heard this name, but my sister Faith Spotted Eagle may have more info!
THIS IS A DAKOTA TEACHING PASSED ON TO ME BY MY FATHER, PHIL LANE SR. AND MY GRANDFATHER VINE DELORIA SR.
Wonderful! Could you kindly provide some documentation--is this in White Buffalo Calf Woman's teachings, or where? Thanks.
Beautifully said in the midst of a disgusting display of vulgarity, racism and sexism by some of our Presidential candidates. Peace and love are possible!
I love this! I didn't know that the Dakota and Chickasaw had this Teaching as well. I am a Baha'i and we have the same thing:
"The male and female are like the two wings of a bird and when both wings are reinforced with the same impulse the bird of humanity will be enabled to soar heaven-ward to the summit of progress."
and
The Bahá'í Writings contain the image of humanity as a bird in which one wing is woman and the other man. Unless both wings are strong and well-developed, the bird will not be able to fly. The development of women is considered vital to the full development of men and is seen as a prerequisite to peace.
Hiy Hiy.
I have been fascinated with Eagle since I was a child. Isaiah 40: 29-31 : He (She) (Creator) gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might. He (She) (Creator) increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, But those who wait on the Lord (our Creator). Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint." I am thankful to hear that the Eagle has balanced, harmonious wings--one representing woman and one representing men. I am glad to see women included in this story. It will take all of us, men and women, all people's of the world to work to make peace and make change to nurture our earth from such pollution and destruction to green earth, clear waters, wellness, wholeness.
