I was able to meet Pete Catches just before he passed. I came to his home at the time. He was so loving and kind. I am a half breed but he treated me like a daughter. He spoke of the sacredness of the Chanupa(pipe) He said to continue to fill it for prayers and know that it worked. I am eternally grateful for his guidance because at the time there was a lot of prejudice against half breeds.

As a recovering alcoholic and addict, I spent a very brief time with the Lakota Sioux. I was very eager to learn the old ways. They were not so anxious to show me the ways. Perhaps they knew something I did not know about myself. My questions were simple yet they offered little as if I was not worthy. This great man has answered some those questions. I now wish to understand better.

I remember reading in a book called "Wisdom of the Elders"....the story about this first time he healed someone... nearby where he lives (in his little shack of a trailer).... out in the woods........ way out on the rez..The old man who he was called upon to treat was very sick,in bed....and on his way to die.....Pete was about 40 yrs old then.....The old man, was VERY sick, and cranky, in no mood to be kind to anyone....and he looked at Pete and said..."Oh, so who are you...young man, that you think you can come here... and cure me?"...."I dont think you can do ANYTHING for me...I am going to die soon, and there is NOTHING you can do...to help me...so go away..leave me to die here"..Pete just looked at him , and said, "OK....but first, I am going to have my assistant make a fire here"....and then ...a fire was made..in the woodstove....real hot....and when it was full of red hot coals...blazing hot.....he opened up the woodstove, reached inside, with his bare hands...grabbed a handful of the hot coals...and held them in his hands.....without getting burned at all...... while the assistant stood next by him, to help burn the sage etc...and they walked over to the old man's bed...with the burning hot coals in his hand....and lit some sage smoke for him by sprinkling the crushed dried leaves onto the red hot coals in his hands.......The old man saw this...and his eyes were OPENED.... and his mind was REALLY blown at that moment....and he realized that Pete was indeed ......a real "Medicine Man".......and the Power to cure him, was given to him......He was "cured" in that moment.....and was able to get out of his death bed the next day...He was cured.......

Trust, Truth and Honesty = Integrity and that is something the world is starved of in it's current condition! A wise man who has left a beautiful legacy to his culture and people. We need more men like Pete in this world 🌍❤🌍

One can never ever run away from ones destiny . It will follow and it will call you. Until you top running and listen then your mind and heart will be at peace.

What a gift of spirit. I hope his knowledge and connection to spirit continues through his son and they have great success.

If we don't listen to the elders of native American people we as Americans are doomed. They 💯 💯 💯 know how every thing works 💪. Love and respect..

As a kid I had many elementary school disabilities and struggling with the, lessons and now I have found that wasn't necessary but this is a gift for me 😃

i sing like this old man ! it just comes out !

I cry when I hear his, and see this...makes me really cry....

All these knowledge should be learnt by the neighbours n preserve n spread to the world , everyone on earth has some important things to share it to the world 🌎

Thank you very much

Love my brother!

Mich wundert, daß manche Schamanen/Heiler so alt und Krank aussehen.

That really took a turn there at the end…

Compassion honor equality with love

Feels as if we need to connect . All other thinks too.

Been fightn dreams that repeat, well not really ive told everyone around me. But i have recently started sharing publicly. I still dont know what im spose to do. Ive just now at 36 kinda figured out one dream that explains the rest of em, its also the oldest repeating dream, the dream starts out with me in the most coolest treehouse ever with a spiral staircase i get bord inside n go outside n wonder around i sit on a rock n a bunch of turtles yell at me for sitting on their king turtle, i apologize go get the turtle sum leaves to make up 4 sitting on him i get the wrong ones n apologize again telling him idk they looked pretty n i overhear a battle plan n offer my help the snakes had over taken the turtles home n the treasured loved child the snakes swarm yet never look at, n the turtles r hell bent on the rescue mission, n if possible recovering the house too. I cant do it tho i try to help i get close enough to kinda see him the turtles provide defense as i try n advance n im halted every time until called and he is upset i am cut up n brused frm battle, its not my place, only the great spirit can, n will. The dream ends with him asking what happened to my garment infront of the men he brought n i tell him everything n the dream ends with a warmth starting at my head n flowing down my body making a new garment, all the sticks in my messy hair are gone n cuts n bruises r gone as well He hears me cry without sound nor anyone seeing or knowing, he knows n comes and comforts me. Hes the only one who can do it, hes the only one who can fix it. Spirit has been focused on unteaching me some things n drawing me to certain native teachings. Im not gonna pretend i have any link to any tribe tho distant in my blood of both native of several diff tribes from both parents (creek cherokee n heard blackfoot ) and alot of white too. So im a mut i belong nowhere in this world accepted by no one n dont care about belonging anywhere anymore either. Just sending the message only he can do it, idk what but he (the great spirit) is the only one who can so ya i hope message gets to where it needs to be

One of the main social things to know ,... We have nothing in common in belief,... The good and the bad have ceremony's ,.. the mystery is not a name,.. we don't pray out loud , we have a mesh and grow with creations from family, and friends ⭕ no outsiders,.....

Read his book 👍(y)

Tis my grampa KLC,Jr owyhee nv

Hi all. I'm looking for a translations to some lakota songs. Wondering if anyone has any leads. Thanks!

I was supposed to be getting some. Money for solving one of the millienial math problems. 1 million was the prize. If I could get the money I would love to help you! We have other same dreams I swear, on my heart! Either way I wish you great success in your endeavors you all seem so Lovely a bright light in a dark world. I guess it was dark because the new world is beautiful! I have tried getting paid, I submitted my answer everyone is bitter because I am autistic and made it look easy and I have no college degree. It was supposed to be the most difficult math problem in the world! It was easy for me. I would like to help you either way if possible! I also am a professional bamboo grower that stuff is the way of the new world! It's just awesome you can do everything with it.

i herd lot native american tells that new one to me. if i rember write down ill have try add this one.

He catches where's the true Medicine Man or I should say a true medicine man as in the old ways that people in the medicine ways were he was not a modern-day Hollywood type he was a true traditional Lakota he was the medicine man of friends of mine in Pine Ridge South Dakota it's very hard to replace holy people like him

When he spoke about sticking to your own culture beliefs , what about those that are mixed ? Can they chose which belief they wanna follow

Moscow, as in Moscow, ID? 🙃

The true medicine people can also reach into boiling water retrieve something from the water and not be burned as well

For me. Some things should not be filmed. I native. But I just don't think some things should be filmed

Real woihanble not a bought altar like today's mm

God gave His only begotten son for everybody

I can do that

~ This guy should work for the White House, I would employ him. ~

you should find connections of hebrew to Hopi and aramaic to Cherokee... i seen one vid the Cherokee linked Cherokee "to hebrew"... sooo close...

the light toned aramaic isrealites (Cherokee) tribes of Judah and dark toned hebrew israelite tribes are the bloodlines of our isrealite ancestors... their legends and prophecies predate the bible codex (i was able to crack it) but are the keys to our tree of eternal life... the doorway to our eden... "gov named "devils butte" is actually the fossilized tree stump... there was a lagoon around it. I AM also 1 of the guardian angels of our (underground) eden...

So all the other medicine men are liars, and you are fit to judge them> EVERYONE can speak to the Almighty, and EVERYONE can hear His response, unless their ego gets in the way. Your statement means you have an ego the size of the moon, and an intellect the size of a roach.
