Sami Elder Eirik Myhrhaug: We who are in the north send the<br />
best greetings to people in all the directions during the ceremony<br />
“Spirit of the Earth”: We who live in the rich part of the world should<br />
actively participate in fundamental social <strong>and</strong> economic changes to limit<br />
the environmental <strong>and</strong> climate challenges we are encountering. Our<br />
message is that each one of us develops a concrete contribution to positive<br />
change. A question we may ask ourselves is: Can I live a simpler life<br />
<strong>and</strong> still have a good life? How much do I really need to have a good life?<br />

Havasupai Elder James Uqwalla on behalf of the Elders at the EagleQuetzal-<br />
Condor gathering: From the Holy peoples of the Southwest. We listen to the heartbeat<br />
of the Mother Earth, <strong>and</strong> heed her messages! We are the sentinels of Mother<br />
Earth <strong>and</strong> we are to keep the beauty of her alive! We are to speak through our voices<br />
to the children to take responsibility <strong>and</strong> protection of her! “FOR WITHOUT<br />
THE MOTHER EARTH, WE WOULD HAVE NO SURFACE TO WALK, TALK,<br />
BREATHE, SING OR DANCE ON! Gratitude always for the Mother Earth!”<br />

This Global Medicine<br />
Wheel is based on a<br />
vision by<br />
Carl Calleman<br />
Kalahari Bushmen: The ones whose soul connects with the sacred wisdom<br />
of the Ancestors is who we look to for direction. We San Bushmen<br />
thank the Ancestors for dancing the dream awake <strong>and</strong> we as the roots of<br />
the Tree of Life continue to hold our light strong, for a unified Humanity.<br />
Medicine Woman Ama Lia Wai Ching, Bali, on behalf of the native Peoples of<br />
the East: “As Wisdom Keepers <strong>and</strong> Guardians of the East, we know our Selves to be Nature. We<br />
converge to pray, sing our soul songs <strong>and</strong> dance together as one Being to bring forth Peace, Harmony<br />
<strong>and</strong> Prosperity for All. The Power of our One mind, Heart <strong>and</strong> Light will reign <strong>and</strong> shine through the<br />
Clouds of Change. We, as the Communion of Terrestrial <strong>and</strong> Celestial energies - the Yin Yang of Life -<br />
embody the centred wholeness of Great Spirit.”
