    I got a quick phone call from Mary Beth as she encountered a National Guard road block. Managed to catch most of the recording, as she began before I turned on the recorder.

    I have not had much in the way of verbal reports, though I am working on one. Instead I will make posts of visuals provided by Mary Beth. This first one will be of the kitchen tent, where meals are prepared all day long to feed the protectors. I will have to provide some time between posts so it does not come out as one endless post of pictures. There will be themes.

    Next in the visual presentation will be Mary Beth's tent and views from where she is camped out at Standing Rock. She is with the Rosebud Sioux encampment.









    And here is Mary Beth in the kitchen tent helping out.

    We will continue. First is gathering for prayer. There is ceremony going on all day and at least a few sweat lodges happening as well.



    Camp at Rosebud.







    And our Global Mission of Peace flag. I have requested that they remove the copyright on the outside. I found it most distasteful. The person making the flag worked from a stencil they received and forgot to remove the irrelevant part of it. I hear a re-do is in the works.

    Thumbs Up

    Thanks So Much Radagast ...

    The visually self/descriptive imagery brings forth the real loving energy attached to this important endeavor.

    It allows for us all (while in meditation) to partake and occupy the same space in support and spirit.

    I encourage all here to send healing support to these brave humans.

    OK. One more set of pictures. This group is of scenes that allow the viewer to get a sense of what it is like being in the thick of things at the gathering.

    The numbers and diversity of needs, must be overwhelming at best..............

    Praying for strengths of individual self management and responsibility in relieving tension when it comes to personal comfort zones that many are not experiencing at this monumetal STAND.

    Admiration and Respect is all I can share when seeing what is happening on mass in the here and now with Standing Rock. Thank you ONE and ALL

    Question

    Very touching and powerful interview about the 3.9 Billion Dollar pipeline ...

    Winona LaDuke: My Community is Trying to Survive

    From Democracy Now


    "In a powerful interview, Winona LaDuke links historic oil extraction on tribal land to intergenerational trauma among Native Americans: "90 percent of my community,
    generally, I would say, is just trying to survive."

    I just want to add: Those people don't need a pipeline, they need to stick their finger into the ground and try and figure out where they are. Puh...that felt good getting off my chest.

    Shelley is on Hawaii right now and thee was a Pow Wow being held there. As a 'pipe carrier' she was invited. She arranged to have a Nez Perce elder and a Sioux Gramdmother speak to us briefly. Hawaii is a windy place and some of that 'noise' is part of these recordings. Needless to say they Stand with Standing Rock.

    Sacred Stone - Standing Rock - North Dakota pipeline - DAPL

    If you want to experience the forums in real life, all ya gotta do is go to North Dakota. A call was made to all the tribes of Turtle Island (North America), and it was answered with a gathering at one of the most beautiful places you can go on the planet, the sacred land hosting the Standing Rock camp

    The natives will speak of the things the (more-often-than-not-traumatized) experiencers bullshit around here about here about like it's normal...just another day for them to watch the ships roll in, chat with the little people and Sasquatch and everything in between.

    And you have the opportunity to join them. Be a bridge between the bloodlines, take real action to stop horrific atrocities, or just chop some wood and carry some water in between having conversations with REAL people about the stuff we bullsh!t about here everyday.

    http://sacredstonecamp.org

    The camp is far enough away from the work on the pipeline that you don't have to worry about your safety, you can join the protection actions if you want to but it's not required, only support is...well, that and respect for the sacred land and peoples and their ways

    This is a real way to take real action to stop the madness, to be help in being an example of how to help bring sanity back to the way we live. To learn about how we really did it back in antiquity. To connect with people like

    Don't believe a f*cking word the teevee or the even the Book tells ya...go for yourself and see it. Even (especially) the "good" stuff is distorted. It's amazing how twisted news about it is.

    I hope to bring some of experiences here soon, I haven't even made it all the way home yet on this journey but what I hope for even more is for you to bring yours. It ain't as hard as ya think. Don't let the fear the media projects scare ya off...go if you're called to. I was, and thunder24 (of PA's) thread helped give me the affirmation that I hope this thread gives you

    I've merged donk's new thread with the existing thread by modwiz, because both are about the same event and carry the same message.
