Completion Circle of the Fourth Year of

World Peace and Prayer Day 1999

As keeper of the 19th generation Sacred White Buffalo Pipe of Peace, I, Chief Arvol Looking Horse of the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota Nation, would like to invite the world to recognize June 21st as a day of prayer for global healing. Our traditional indigenous ways are the way to strengthen our bonds and healing for our Mother Earth. We are the "root nation", Hutkan Oyate, with responsibility to turn the life of our Mother Earth around. It is now evident, with even the scientific findings, that our course is leading to the endangerment of our tired Mother Earth. We are now in the midst of what is prophesied as the cross roads, faced with either disaster, chaos, diseases, with tears from our relatives' (Mitakuye Oyasin) eyes, or uniting spiritually with all nations upon Mother Earth.

This is a calling for the world to seek out the sacred sites and bring awareness to the energy and connection that exists there to our Mother Earth. In the past, there has been clear research findings of people coming together spiritually, praying for a healing, and our Mother Earth responded with a visible positive energy shift.

This year we are completing the circle to the South direction in Costa Rica. This journey started in 1996 at Gray Horne Butte, Wyoming and circled to the North in 1997, to the Cree Nation of the Joseph Big Head Reservation, and then to the East at the Sacred Pipestone Quarries in 1998. Costa Rica has been chosen as the Southern site to complete the circle because of the need to support what is already established there with the efforts of the University of Peace and its non-military existence. We are inviting the surrounding Indigenous Peoples of the South and all Indigenous people of the world to either join us or go to their sacred site if it is not possible to journey to Costa Rica.

According to our star knowledge, June 21st is a time to pray. We have this only chance to unite spiritually. In our way there is no beginning and no ending to continue to work toward peace and harmony for our Mother Earth so there is much healing for our nations of future generations.

May peace be with you, all life upon Mother Earth.

As keeper of the 19th generation Sacred White Buffalo Pipe of Peace, I Chief Arvol Looking Horse of the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota Nation, would like to invite all indigenous people to recognize and participate in June 21st as a day of prayer for global healing.
