Why This Native American Language Was Never To Be Written

This 46 year old white European husband and father of three started watching your videos during the pandemic, and while, on the surface, we don't seem to have anything in common I want to let you know it is amazing that you are sharing your knowledge to the world. If only everyone could hear this. I wish you and your loved ones and actually anyone out there all the love and understanding in the world. Thank you mister Wally Brown.

We owe the Native people so much more than they receive. I for one am thankful that he is sharing his knowledge.

It's hurts knowing what's been done, what's been lost and what we are learning now. The hate and ignorance equals loss to all.

One of my good friends was the high chief of the Te Arawa tribe of the New Zealand Māori. It was his life work to preserve their language, genealogy and culture. His name was Hiko o te Rangi Hohepa, which means “Thunder of the Sky”.

He had an encyclopaedic knowledge of the ways of his people and spent his whole life teaching his people their ways, but he has passed on to the Spirit World now.

So much has been lost. Te Wairua Tapu (Holy Spirit) bless you Hiko. I’ll see you again one day, my friend…

Thank you for helping keep the traditions alive.
No matter what race or creed, I ask everyone to please pray for peace.

I am not of Navajo descent, but I am of Blackfoot descent. Unfortunately my granny wasn't able to teach me about our history. I know it isn't the same but I appreciate learning about all indigenous histories. Thank you. ❤️

What a treasure! This old and wise Navajo man is a national treasure!!!!

As a child I admired the native people's and their love of the earth, and dreamed of being adopted into a tribe. I eventually traced my ancestors and found my great great grandfather was one of the cherokee forced to march to Oklahoma. Knowledge is lost so fast, thank you for inspiring your brothers and sisters
❤❤

I am not Navajo, but I have lived among the Ifugao and Igorot people of the Cordilleras in the northern Philippines. Their old folks have similar beliefs to your people. I think we should listen to this wisdom. Thank you for sharing it.

I'm grateful to have had a father who loved me so much, he told me these things and taught me some of those phrases that he could remember. He was a Hand Trembler. And he left us 4 years ago to be with the Holy People. To this day, I still remember what he taught me. Thank you Mr. Brown.

Just happened upon your channel..I have admired the Native Americans ever since I can remember (I'm 68yo)..the unjustified tat have been inflicted on all the tribes is unforgivable..there is SO much to learn from your knowledge and understanding of how the universe works..I hope you continue to bring forth your teachings and knowledge..there are I'm sure many who feel as I do..as always prayers and blessings to all

Thank you, Mr. Wally Brown for teaching all of us who wish to learn. I found this channel during the pandemic. You made this a calm place to come and learn, you also have taught me much about Dine and just about how to be right in this space we call our world. I treasure your teachings and words. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and Blessed Be, sir!

Timely teaching, Grandfather. Thank you, with respect and love.

I know that story is true, it has been told to me since I was a little child. It was written in a book, the first time I ever saw the book I had come down with chicken pox. I remember my mother setting it down on the night stand next to the medicine she was using to treat me with and so in my innocence I asked if it was a book to help with my chicken pox. She simply said “No, this book is very important” and left the room. I will never forget the feeling that came over me the very instant she said those words. And I knew that it came from a higher place even as young as I was and I knew that I would never be able to deny it.
I believe your people are a chosen people of God (the Great Spirit) and your knowledge is valuable and very much needed in these days. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for your teachings. When become depressed, mostly because I see the world passing the wrong way, I watch your videos and my heart becomes new again.

I am of native blood myself I'm just seeing this and I want to thank you for sharing your wisdom with everyone and I want to help if I can spread the word of our mother's and father's again Ty
God bless you and your family 💘

How right you are Grandfather Wally. With each new generation in language, tradition, personal character so much has been and continues to be lost because those who are young are not being taught those things. It's tragic in my opinion. My Mom taught me to talk to house plants. I've talked to the trees since I was old enough to walk, as did my children. When our granddaughter was about a year and half old, she and my daughter were outside roaming our 3.5 acre yard in the country. My daughter brought our granddaughter brought her in for a nap, then came into the kitchen and said, "I think something may he wrong with my daughter. She just stopped and talked to a tree."
I smiled and said, "She stopped to talk to that tree because it asked her a question, she heard that question clearly, so she answered it. You and your brother used to talk to the trees and it started at about the same age. I still talk to the tree and have since I was that same age. There's nothing wrong with her; she hears and understands the oldest, simplest language known to man in the entire universe. The language we all are born knowing and have chosen not to hear anymore." That particular tree is one of three Cottonwood Trees in our yard. It is the only female tree of the three and it is the largest in diameter and heighth. She has been here a very long time and is just under 5 ft. in diameter. One male tree is just under 4 ft. in diameter, the other male tree is about 2 1/2 ft. in diameter. The trees rememeber everything. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for your teachings, Grandfather. I am (sadly) not Native, but have great respect for the People & want to know all I can. I hope the younger generation develops a love & a hunger for your culture & history. It must not be left to die...

Thank you for your teachings. So much respect and love for the Navaho people.
I'm Puerto Rican but in my heart, I follow the traditions of our Taino people. The teachers and keepers of our existence are our elders. Lose them, and we lose ourselves.

When I was 40 I changed my name because my father had acted very shameful in his life and I did not want to carry his name any longer. I thought long and looked for inspiration concerning the name I would take. I have read a lot of Native teaching but I was unaware of Navajo teaching when I chose my name. I Chose Casadine as my Family name. I know the Spanish word Casa. The Dine came to me as DI-NEH always as that. I thought maybe it was Latin. Now I know what it means.
