WALKING IN
BEAUTY Originally published on 6.6.2000 Are you a Patriot? Are you a Warrior? Are you an American? What is a loyal American Patriotic Warrior? This address is to all my fellow American citizens. This is a call to
alertness so that we might stand as one Nation under God, indivisible with
liberty and justice for all! This call to alertness is a wake-up call to step into sobriety and stand
prepared, outside of any and all belief systems, thought-forms or structures.
Especially those that do not allow us to have the capability to respond to a
CALL TO ARMS if and when enemies either foreign or domestic threaten our
nation's liberty. The most sacred gift of God or the Great Spirit, to me, is the gift of
individual autonomous freedom--with the blessing of free thinking and free will,
that allows me to assume authority, take responsibility and stand accountable at
all times and in all ways. I am by definition, therefore, a loyal American. But this is not enough in these troubling times. Our government is waging war
against our fundamental freedoms, especially the guaranties in the sacred
document of our Bill of Rights--the right to Keep and Bear Arms. Like a domestic
enemy, (especially All Gore and company) our government is bringing war to the
people. Their demand for registration and eventually confiscation of all
firearms will be a call to arms for all Patriots! We are at WAR. A Patriot
understands that WAR is an acronym, for being Willing, Able and Ready to see
what must be seen and know what must be done; and who takes care of business
with maximum efficiency and minimum effort in the preservation of liberty and
freedom. The Patriot has Principles inside of a CAUSE that they will not, under
any circumstance, surrender or sacrifice. These CAUSES are never
emotionally-based belief systems, rather they are carefully constructed,
logically integrated, clear understandings of Justice. The Patriot, like the
Warrior, is someone who is Willing, Able and Ready to die for that CAUSE. It is
their life, liberty and pursuit of happiness with freedom! "Give me liberty
or give me death" is the single most valid statement of a true Patriot! There are some that hold to the concept that life is more sacred than death.
To those people I say "Wake up and step into reality!" Life in and of
itself is an engagement in exploring the full blessing, beauty and power within
any experience. Life must have meaning and purpose, and it must evolve. Most
people who say that life is preferable to death are willing to settle for
existence and security rather than a life with liberty. This a Warrior never
does, for a Warrior knows that death gives life. A Warrior walks with death
standing to his/her left as an advisor. In this way death is also The Great
Changer. The Great Changer allows us to grow up, mature and make a difference in
our world. The Warrior also recognizes that change is inevitable and must lead to
evolution of humanity. Therefore, the Warrior listens to death's advice for
making positive changes in both their substance (health) and behavior (life).
The Warrior also has death to his right as an Ally. This is their willingness to
sacrifice their life in the name of liberty and justice in order to preserve the
life of the children, the elders, and the weak or afflicted who can't defend
themselves. For this Warrior, "today is a good day to die" for the cause of
Liberty! The Warrior has death inside his heart, mind, body and soul, as a
companion that brings him/her comfort, security and peace. You see, a Warrior
can't live without the Liberty that is expressly elaborated in both the Preamble
and the ten Amendments of the Bill of Rights of the united States constitution!
The Warrior is a sovereign citizen of the state within which they vote and live.
A warrior is a person of the people. Now is the time for all good men and women to stand up in this call of
alertness as loyal Americans and Patriot Warriors. To do this is to recognize
the meaning of the word "Militia" in the 2nd Amendment. The entire
above address is what is meant by "well regulated" i.e. totally
trained, capable and prepared to defend this country. The Warrior understands (as my people of Turtle Island know) that the number
10 represents completion through confrontation. Measure is one's full value
assessment of self-acceptance, self-deservement and self worth as a human being.
Humans live in unity as humanity. Humans care for one another, share with one
another, teach one another, and heal one another. Most important, they love one
another as a part of their giveaway to life and others. In order to evolve itself, Creation finds its measure in 10 distinct steps
towards completion. Each step is a confrontation to increase its measure. We
humans are the most determinant piece of these 10 steps of creation, for we are
the cellular body structure of the Great Spirit in Human form. The 1st amendment is the focus step of our measure, for we are all part of
the Great Spirit or God's Grand Design. This Sacred Nation is and always has
been the Sacred Hollow ground for the Great Spirit's Grand Design of Liberty
within Human form. The 2nd Amendment is the substance of our measure. The 3rd
Amendment is the form step of our measure. The 4th Amendment is the
determination of our measure. The 5th Amendment is the understanding step of our
measure. The 6th Amendment is the imagination of our measure. The 7th Amendment
is the freedom of our measure. The 8th Amendment is the pattern of our measure.
The 9th Amendment is the chaos of our measure. The 10th Amendment is the
completion of our measure. In conclusion, I offer a prayer in my people's way to each person who feels
he/she is a loyal American Patriotic Warrior: "Oh, Great Spirit (use your name for Creation, the Creator or the
Creatress for it is all one and the same), let me see with your eyes. Let me
hear with your ears. Let me know with your mind. Let me feel with your heart and
touch with your hands all those with whom I interact with Beauty. Oh, Great
Spirit, let me walk in Beauty as a peaceful Warrior. Oh, Great Spirit, let me
live in Beauty. Let Beauty be around me, above me and below me at all times in
this walk talk Circle of Life. Let me take in the Beauty you send down to me.
Oh, Great Spirit, let me walk in Beauty. Let Beauty be in front of me, that I
might always see the Beauty in life and others. Let me walk in Beauty. Let
Beauty be behind me so that all who come after me can see that I have walked in
Beauty. Oh, Great Spirit, let me take in Beauty from my receptive creative
feminine side, my left side. Let me walk in Beauty. Oh, Great Spirit, let me
reach out and touch the world from my right side, with my active conceptive male
energy, so I might touch life and others with my Beauty. Oh, Great Spirit, let
me walk in Beauty. In this way I ask these things as taught to me by my elders
and teachers and their elders and teachers since always. Hear me for I have
spoken. HO, Amen Thunder Strikes A.k.a. "The Shooting Shaman" H.S. "Gunnie"

This is Swift Deer's 1st monthly column as a source of inspiration for our
family of gun owners around the nation. Swift Deer is not a boastful man, and
because we've all been so indoctrinated to think "credentials" to be
so important, I am sharing some of this man's "credentials" with you. His blood is half Cherokee and half Irish.
On the Irish side, his ancestors have been on this soil now known as America for
10 generations. (Who knows how far back the Cherokee go?) Before he "woke
up" to the lighter side of being a liberty advocate, Swift Deer operated for the CIA and the NSA. In his sphere of influence, he is
deeply revered as a Shaman and a Medicine
Man. People come from Europe to learn ancient ways from him, year after year.
Quite a number have even taken up permanent residence in Arizona to be able to
have regular access to his wisdom. He is also a trained Psychologist, Teacher,
Author of several books,
and he runs his own Self-Growth and Development Center in Scottsdale Arizona. He
also runs his own dojo for
martial arts training and runs his own monthly gun
club and competition. Swift Deer is a He is |
