I had heard of Buffalo Soldiers and black cowboys before, but white Indians were a new concept for me. This is what happened to me last summer of 2009 in New Mexico. I journeyed to the national Rainbow Gathering searching for truth, high up in the mountains above Taos, where my vision was enriched by the many incredible brothers and sisters I met at this tribal celebration. But I was drawn to one wise hippie woman who turned me on to a book and indigenous culture that opened a multitude of doors for me. I honor the Hopi, Navajo, etc…but here I discovered some other drum. “The White Indians of Nivaria” is an anthropological odyssey and true story of white natives living primitive on 7 African islands for many thousands of years, a forgotten chapter in European pre-history that reveals a rare Western model on an eden-like volcanic archipelago inhabited by a female friendly indigenous population of cave dwelling Caucasians. The Guanche Indians mummified their dead, constructed ceremonial pyramids, and were custodians of an ancient spiritual legacy and solar cosmology that lurks deep within the recesses of the so-called white man’s consciousness. A lost paradise, far beyond the western edge of our dreams, somewhere in the distant past of Indo-European evolution. The archetypes are powerful and resonate deep within me like some missing link to my own aboriginal pagan past and indigenous heritage. The author Gordon Kennedy shares his study at Boulder Bookstore in Colorado and Bookshop Santa Cruz in California, and has a web site up at: www.whiteindians.com In his You Tube it shows who must have crossed the Atlantic a long, long time before Columbus, and spread these pagans westward. I’m ready to sail on that raft. Any thoughts? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W77t3vzS5qA&feature=player_embedded"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W77t3vzS5qA&feature=player_embedded
Are you keen on the article from The Arizona Gazette from 1909 which describes an Egyptian tomb discovered in the Grand Canyon? It is extremely easy to find web sites about it. The story goes that this article was printed in the paper and cannot be proven if it was a hoax. Supposedly real anthropologist names from the Smithsonian were used in the article, and if it were real the information has been suppressed. Parts of the Grand Canyon have Egytian names and I heard sections are off limits to even park Rangers. I don't believe everything but its a fun topic to read about.
Thats fascinating, after reading your post I did a quick google and came up with a little more info. Many of the God names I found associated with the Guanche really hit something in me. I'm going to continue looking into this. Thank you
one wonders through it all, at the quiet moments in the day not much happens, there are sounds, if the aren't there, they will come if they don't come i will not speak to that, because I am like an acorn, noble and of nature i don't speak to much stomach, you speak, you seem in touch yonato there in moonlight, dutch, and yodelling in the hills i eat of the air like the limerical wise ones and walk into the forest which is why words, or expression is the true religion, what could inspire one to make the marks or the motions of sounds to cause a certain effect in the world? this is what all creation is about, in all its forms all vibration and do their thing and play their part we are and we do, though I am schizophrenic I refuse to be passed on to the ways of those who raised me, who are not even my parents but by magic have stolen me, because I am a fairy changeling, what for beings like myself? You come by dream to the right place, your soul begins to heal itself, you know are different course like the winding river, but in the end, it comes from the same yearning, and it is the same doing, everyone is there though we see it from many sides of the same moment, and in the ways of magic one learns a mystical existence, which is the truth, steeped even unknowingly, so the energies around, what do they represent, though they have changed, life itself that is the true meaning, life for the sake of life for the bettering of life, for the harmony, for the joy, for the love, the enjoyment, the beauty and these things, with their twists, and with their expansive all inclusiveness, bringing even from places of seeming humbleness the greatest virtue and simple wisdom, such is the universe which we inhabit and the law of wabi sabi, which is some going with the way of things, which we are after all who can say what is what? who can even say it is clear at all, it just suddenly is thats all but that is everything
View attachment 47433 Yes it does seem to evoke some forgotten memory of A place I wish I had lived in. Rachel was dressed in Guanche garb for her infamous role as a native girl in the Canaries. Beaches & Volcanos beyond compare.......
