    The Silent Majority of Hopi and how you can help

    http://www.bluestarprophecy.com/the-...w-you-can-help

    Please watch the YouTube video by the Hopi Silent Majority posted on the above link and read the "Censored News" article.

    What is being asked for is -- light! At about 14:34 Minutes into the video is the following quote:

    "The best weapon of a dictatorship is secrecy, but the best weapon of a democracy should be the weapon of openness." -Niels Bohr

    From the looks of it, Hopi Chairman Leroy Shingotewa is a plant into the Hopi council to force out the traditional ways and cancel out their tribal constitution so that the coal mining can begin on Hopi land. It is simply too obvious that he and possibly others are being paid off or they are truly not of Hopi origin.

    Hopi and a Proposed Constitution that will End the Hopi Way of Life
    From Miriam Delicado's November 1, 2010 posting on her website...
    http://www.bluestarprophecy.com/hopi...pi-way-of-life

    Who are the Hopi? Why are they so important? What great secrets do they hold? Why are they important to YOU?

    What effect do the Hopi have on the world, on life itself? Why have they remained silent regarding their knowledge of the Sacred? So many questions that could fill books and books all seeking something… that people from around the world want to know… want to learn.. want to understand.

    The Hopi people are the most talked about, written about, studied, and sought after tribes in the world. They have one of the most complex societies on earth and are one the most mysterious groups of people on the planet. Who they are may never be fully understood or known unless you were born into the Hopi tribe and become a part of their complex Traditional Way of Life and Societies.

    There are those who have come from the outside to Hopi in the past and even today who spend time with these mysterious people and learn only a single grain of their knowledge in the vast entire desert of what they hold. They use this knowledge to sell books, lectures, seminars, Tv shows, and so much more. There is one particular man that states he has the right to share Hopi Prophecy with the world…… as though HE himself carries this great wisdom from past generations of the devoted Hopi to Massau the Creator. He claims there are no Traditional people left in Hopi and by doing so contributes to the destruction of a Sacred People and their CHOSEN way of life and belief. This kind of disgraceful action is what allows people who do seek to destroy the Hopi Way of Life more opportunity to do so.

    Within Hopi itself the name HOPI is used as though it is a commodity to sell and promote anything and everything. WHY does the name alone hold such power? Why does the name Hopi instill a feeling of something greater in people? Could it be that the people of Hopi that follow the Traditional Hopi Way of Life really do hold the secretes to LIFE itself? This can and should only ever be answered by the most Sacred of people within the Hopi Traditional world itself.

    When you see the dancers in the Plaza within Hopi…. under the bluest of skies as far as the eye can see …….. come out of the Kivas throughout the day….. CREATE rain clouds that then circle the Plaza and release the rain of life itself upon your head….. then you beleive……. then you see and experience the respect, honor and dedication of the Hopi people to Creator. This is who the Hopi are…. they are the holders of life, of balance of understanding the energy of life itself. They deserve to be respected by the world…… not revered…… not put on a pedestal, but respected… for their choice to the Hopi Way of Life.

    No outsider that is not a part of this complex Traditional world has the right to put limits or restrictions on HOW they are to live. They live simply, they live dedicated to ceremony, they live with nature and with balance. They have respect for the earth and they only ask for the right to live in the way that Creator laid out for them, the way their Ancestors have lived from the beginning of this world.

    What right does a person who is not a part of the Hopi Way of Life have to dictate HOW these people are to live, what to follow? How can they understand exactly WHAT they are telling these people to let go of and turn their backs on LIFE itself. Even within Hopi those who do not follow the Hopi Way of Life do not have the ability to understand the complexities, commitment, devotion, ceremonies, culture, religion of the TRUE Hopi People.

    When those who seek power, money, fame, position and control set out to destroy the Heart of a people that have chosen to live simply and with respect and hold harmony in life….. We as people need to take a stand and support the those Hopi whos only request is to be allowed to follow their Hopi Way of Life now and into future generations.

    Who are we as human beings to deny the rights of these people? What are we destroying if we ALLOW their way of life to be destroyed and denied? Could it really be possible that they truly do hold the balance of the world, of life itself? Could this be why the world is in chaos itself as the reflection out to the planet? When you witness miracles and manifestations in Hopi it only takes once to beleive that they do have special knowledge.

    They say that they hold this for the world, for the people, for all life…… do you want to risk allowing them to be destroyed? It your future they are protecting………

    Those who come from the outside world and from within Hopi itself who seek to destroy are only destroying themselves in the process. We have an obligation to these committed Hopi to show gratitude for the lifetimes of dedication for months of Ceremonies they hold for us…. to give back to them…..

    A self destructive Tribal Chairman within the Hopi Tribe itself has set forth an agenda to bring a proposed new Constitution to the people. This proposed Constitution would destroy the Traditional, Hopi Way of Life that has been carried on for thousands of years. In the blink of an eye their Way of Life would no longer be possible. Those who support this proposal are NOT informed and many not Traditional. These people can not make an informed decision as to how this proposed Constitution would destroy a way of life they themselves do not understand.

    There is a CURRENT Constitution that the Hopi have had since 1936 that has been in place with language to PROTECT the Hopi Way of Life, Ceremonies and Religion. To bring in this proposed Constitution is a violation of the Civil, Constitutional and Individual rights of the Hopi people in itself to their Way of Life.

    In this matter, these are my observations. These are the things I know to be true in my heart and they are shared out of a deep respect to the Hopi People.

    From my heart, for the Center of the Universe and the balance of all life I call on all people, in all directions, from all Tribes, Religious groups, Spiritual people from around the world to join in protecting the Hopi people from the destruction of their Way of Life and by doing so join in protecting life itself.

    One email……. five minutes…… and you could be saving the Hopi, the planet and all life…… who are we to say that the reason that they have remained so True to their beliefs is because the know something the rest of the world does not…. maybe…just maybe they do hold the balance of all life……. do you want to risk this question?

    Please email the Secretary of Interior and ask him to HALT the proposed Constitution and uphold the RIGHTS of the Hopi people. All it may take to save the Hopi and possibly save ourselves from destruction is ONE email …..

    FYI, the following is the text of my email to Secretary Salazar:

    Subject: U.S. Government Interference with Traditional Hopi Religious Practices

    Dear Secretary Salazar:

    It has come to my attention that the United States Government, through the Department of the Interior and the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) has created a situation that is about to destroy Traditional Hopi Religious Practice, contrary to the 1st Amendment Freedom of Religion, as well as the American Indian Religious Freedom Act (1978), which was intended to express public policy on this issue and reverse past practices of your Department in this regard.

    An October 16, 2010 article entitled "HOPI CHAIRMAN’S PROPOSALS REMOVES RELIGIOUS PROTECTIONS IN HOPI CONSTITUTION", may be found on the following link: http://bsnorrell.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html

    In that article is the following statement:

    '“The Bureau of Indian Affairs is well-aware of the actions of the Chairman and Tribal Council but choose to sit quietly by and claim “gee, this is an internal matter and we can’t get involved.” That is nonsense! The Chairman and the Tribal Council are intentionally attempting to destroy Hopi religion and to install a government with exclusive powers and authorities. Of course, the BIA prefers a Tribal Council that will sign new coal leases without the input of the Hopi people. The BIA is responsible for the installation of the Tribal Council form of government for the purpose of easily acquiring permission to mine Indian lands” said Director Wadsworth.'

    Traditional Hopi have lived in peace and harmony for hundreds of years, and in my view the fate of the Traditional Hopi will be the fate of Humanity (it is said that they are a "microcosm of the world"). Progressive Hopi like Chairman Shingotewa, and with all due respect to him, are the product of the policies and practices of the United States Government throughout the last Century and continuing to the present day -- and will be the downfall of spiritual freedom. For the BIA to say that the present situation is an "internal matter" of the Hopi Tribe, simply because Chairman Shingotewa is a Hopi, is appalling.

    It is my request that you involve your good offices in this matter and meet personally with the Traditional Hopi Leaders. My request is based on the intent of Section 2 of the American Indian Religious Freedom Act, which states, in part:

    "The President shall direct the various Federal departments,agencies, and other instrumentalities responsible for administering relevant laws to evaluate their policies and procedures in consultation with native traditional religious leaders in order to determine appropriate changes necessary to protect and preserve Native American religious cultural rights and practices. ..." [Emphasis added]

    The "consultation with native traditional religious leaders" was to be fulfilled within 12-months of the law's enactment (1978), but clearly indicates the importance of meeting with Traditional Hopi Leaders on this critical matter.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Sincerely,

    [name]
    [city, state]

    Two item -- the Hopi Constitution, and the timing of The Great Gathering...

    Hopi Constitution

    Here's the link to Miriam's latest Feature posting about the Hopi:

    Hopi truth to be lifted by the winds to all people: Stop the proposed Constitution.
    http://www.bluestarprophecy.com/hopi...d-constitution

    The main item of info is this:

    "In the CURRENT Constitution there is the following:
    In article 6, Section 1k, the Hopi Tribal Council has a duty to; “ To protect the arts, crafts, traditions, and ceremonies of the Hopi Indians.”
    In the Proposed Constitution this is removed and therefor no Protections to the Traditions are present."

    She also reiterates her request that as many emails as possible, from around the world, be sent to the U.S. Secretary of the Interior:

    "Please email the Secretary of Interior and ask him to HALT the proposed Constitution and uphold the RIGHTS of the Hopi people. All it may take to save the Hopi and possibly save ourselves from destruction is ONE email …..

    feedback@ios.doi.gov contact the U.S. Department of the Interior, Secretary Salazar

    Your email doesn't have to be long and formal, like my posting above. A single sentence in your own words will do, and something in the subject heading about "Hopi Constitution" or "Protecting Hopi Traditions" -- anything with the word "Hopi" in it. The volume of emails sent, more than the content, will probably make the difference.

    Miriam will be posting more information about the Hopi in coming Feature postings, so you may want to check her site from time to time...

    http://www.bluestarprophecy.com

    The Timing of The Great Gathering

    A 20-year friend of mine, whose function is to balance energies, told me this last summer that the energy of The Great Gathering was "up and down", which I interpret to mean - not ready. It may have been better if the gathering was this year -- sooner rather than later -- I don't know, but the energy has to be there.

    I think the timing will be fine, if not Divine. As for the launch of the new TGG website, the project has been more like preparing a major online social site. People may be quite impressed, so wait-and-see.

    In the meantime -- please email the Secretary of the Interior!

    Thank you,

    The following was added 12/14/10, to the material linked above. It is potential Dynamite, in my opinion, if the Traditional Hopi have been living with a measure of true Sovereignty that the U.S. Government and Progressive Hopi are attempting to destroy. Please read carefully!

    Hopi is a Complex Way of Life — The “Don’t Vote/Vote No” Issue!

    I earlier posted the following articles from the “Navajo-Hopi Observer”, and you may have noticed something curious. In the first article it is stated that the Hopi should not vote in the election, because “not voting” is the traditional method of showing disapproval, and if less that 30% of the Hopi vote then the New Constitution fails. In the second article it says be sure to “vote no”:

    Viewpoint: Power grab by Hopi Tribal Council – 11/23/10
    http://nhonews.com/main.asp?Search=1...tionID=798&S=1

    Letter: Exercise your right to vote on Hopi Constitution Draft 24A — to the Hopi and Tewa People — 11/30/10
    http://nhonews.com/main.asp?Search=1...tionID=796&S=1

    Here is my understanding:

    From the Village of Shungopavi, the Mother Village where they still maintain the full Ceremonial Cycle throughout the year, the Traditionals do not vote. Shungopavi, as well as many other Traditionals across Hopi have never voted. Shungopavi Village has never sent representatives to the Hopi Tribal Council. They have a degree of Sovereignty and are asking for full Sovereignty recognition from the Secretary of Interior, Ken Salazar.

    It is my understanding that this Village does not accept the Political Government as they are saying that they have never accepted Government rule over them. It is also my understanding …. that they never entered into any kind of treaty with the US Government. So, this is the reason for the “do not vote”. In fact they are strong in their beliefs and always have been along with ALL the other Villages in Hopi who are still maintaining the Traditions. This is the reason for the confusion. Please understand that I dont speak on behalf of anyone and because of the complex situation here, this is how I understand the situation to be.

    As for the rest of Hopi, most other Traditional people have not voted in the past either. However, this is what the Progressives and “Government” are counting on. The confusion, lack of education of the people on legalities, propaganda and outright breaking of CURRENT Constitutional Laws of Hopi, to bring this vote in. Because of this complex issue most non-Hopi do not understand how this will effect the people.

    In the next week there will be more on what is happening in Hopi on my website. Meaning, I have read the proposed Constitution and will share my findings. Also, more on the who’s-who on this voting issue.

    Here’s another example. On the form given out to the people it says: “Notice of Rules of Election”. The Election Board Chairman…. who is here to OVERSEE the process and register votes… was not even in the office until Monday, the 13th of December. When they should have been available since the date these forms were sent out the first of December I beleive. The election is scheduled for January 27th, 2011. The Hopi only have until the 27th of DECEMBER to register. They can do so by filling in the form at the Administration office of the Tribe or from the mail and you may HAND THEM IN AT THE ADMINISTRATION OFFICE TO ENSURE YOU ARE REGISTERED. SENDING THIS IN BY MAIL MAY NOT MAKE IT ON TIME DUE TO CHRISTMAS MAIL. People out here are getting conflicting information on the process. Some are having difficulty reaching people to obtain information.

    Imagine if in a Presidential Election that YOU could not get information from the Government as to HOW you can vote…… Imagine if YOU could not VOTE and that meant ALL, AND I MEAN ALL of your rights were taken from you! This is not too harsh of a statement here. It is complicated due to the issues regarding the “Don’t Vote/Vote No” — Traditions, Lawlessness, disregard of Rights of Sovereignty, disrgard of Rights to Practice Religion and many-many others.

    This will not only effect the Traditional Hopi but ALL the people of Hopi. Passing this and allowing for it to continue is like allowing a handful of people to destroy thousands lives now and into the future….. for the children.

    In the next week I will be posting more information regarding this issue on my website, with as much clarity as possible regarding what is wrong with the process taking place, as well as further information on related questions. There is a great deal of information on my site, already; links to articles and more. http://www.bluestarprophecy.com

    If you respect the Hopi and all they do in their Ceremonies for all life, if you view their Prophecies to be of Value to Humanity, if you feel you would like to help:

    Please send emails to Secretary Salazar asking him to HALT the referendum on draft 24A and Uphold the CURRENT RIGHTS and LAWS of the Hopi Constitution and the rights of the People until an investigation takes place.

This is not a riddle; it's a fact, but only if you mount that moment and use it to take the totality of yourself forever in any direction."

    Hopi proposed constitution defeated!!

    From Miriam Delicado's Feature posting for January 28, 2011:

    http://www.bluestarprophecy.com/hopi...ution-defeated

    This is a very happy post to write. The Traditional Hopi have been in conflict with the Tribe over a proposed constitution that would have take away their right to their way of life. Yesterday they voted: New proposed Hopi Constitution (Draft 24A) was DEFEATED by a vote of 656 NO and 410 YES. This is unofficial.
    The first call I received from Hopi was from an Elder who was overjoyed at the outcome. His words will be with me forever as he said he believed it was because of Prayer and thanked me and YOU for all the prayers from around the world.

    There are many questions now that still need answers. The trip to DC did not happen before the vote. So we still have all the donations you gave to this event. There is still more work that needs to be done to resolve this issue fully to protect the Traditional Hopi. I am waiting for instructions on what the next step will be and if they do not go to DC I will be refund all the donations to you. Please give me a couple of days to look into this further.

    Also, I believe that the reason that the Hopi voted NO was because although there is great conflict in Hopi they were all working for the same goal. ALL parties played a roll and a need. The Truest Traditional Leaders said not to vote at all, (this sent a strong message as to how they felt about the proposed constitution as well as other reasons that are VERY important and it was the right decision) The inform Hopi group that is working with the Kikmongwi (Village Chief) representatives that were removed from the Tribal Government when they allege they have the right to be there. There was also the group that were former elected and hired officials that worked for the Tribe in the past who also said they felt draft 24a of the proposed constitution was not good for the Hopi people.

    Lastly YOU with all the Prayer from around the world. The Hopi believe that Prayer is powerful and has the ability to give strength to what you are asking for if you do so with a clear heart. THANK YOU!!!!

    MORE to come…….

    Love Miriam

    Not sure if this is a "suitable" place to post this or not. Its sad how logging/mining, etc. in the Amazon has had such a devastating affect on the indigenous population.

    'Video of an uncontacted tribe spotted in the Brazilian jungle has been released, bringing them to life in ways that photographs alone cannot.

    The tribe, believed to be Panoa Indians, have been monitored from a distance by Brazil’s National Indian Foundation, a government agency charged with handling the nation’s indigenous communities. Many of the world’s 100 or so uncontacted tribes live in the Amazon.

    Until 1987, it was government policy to contact such people. But contact is fraught with problems, especially disease; people who have stayed isolated from the mainstream world have stayed isolated from its pathogens, and have little immunity to our diseases. Brazilian government policy is now to watch from afar, and — at least in principle — to protect uncontacted tribes from intrusion.

    Unfortunately, uncontacted tribes usually live in resource-rich areas threatened by logging, mining and other development. There’s often pressure on governments to turn a blind eye. Videos like this, released by tribal advocacy group Survival International and produced by the BBC’s Human Planet program, are legal proof that uncontacted tribes still exist, and deserve protection.'

    July 29 - Rountable Discussion with Dogon of West Africa...

    "For perhaps the first time in the history of this planet, members of the Dogon tribe have agreed to come forward and speak out on a live Project Camelot Roundtable regarding the importance in bringing together the tribes to work to save the planet and contribute their part in raising the consciousness of humanity. We will be doing a Livestream event on July 29, 2011 with the Dogon and Miriam Delicado to begin the process of speaking out by indigenous people to the world. Part of the purpose of the event will be to raise funds for travel and meetings to happen between the leaders of the various indigenous tribes around the world. More info about the July 29th event to come..."

    Re Dogon....

    "In Mali, West Africa, lives a tribe of people called the Dogon. The Dogon are believed to be of Egyptian decent and their astronomical lore goes back thousands of years to 3200 BC.

    According to their traditions, the star Sirius has a companion star which is invisible to the human eye. This companion star has a 50 year elliptical orbit around the visible Sirius and is extremely heavy. It also rotates on its axis.

    This legend might be of little interest to anybody but the two French anthropologists, Marcel Griaule and Germain Dieterlen, who recorded it from four Dogon priests in the 1930's. Of little interest except that it is exactly true. How did a people who lacked any kind of astronomical devices know so much about an invisible star? The star, which scientists call Sirius B, wasn't even photographed until it was done by a large telescope in 1970."

    http://www.unmuseum.org/siriusb.htm

    'The Dogon are strongly oriented toward harmony, which is reflected in many of their rituals. For instance, in one of their most important rituals, the women praise the men, the men thank the women, the young express appreciation for the old, and the old recognize the contributions of the young."

    DOGON TRIBE SPEAKS TO THE WORLD
    LiveStream Event, Project Camelot TV
    Friday, July 29th, 11AM PST

    http://projectcamelot.tv



    http://projectcamelot.tv
    (Note: You can donate as little as $1 to participate, amount is completely optional. )

    Introduction, Bios for the Dogon Speakers:

    http://www.bluestarprophecy.com/live...-2011-11am-pst

    Knowledge that has remained intact since the time of the Pharaohs is now being shared with humanity to assist in restoring balance to our world.

    Indigenous people around the world are reading the signs that our planet and humanity are out of balance.

    Many tribes are now coming forward at this crucial time to speak with the world and share their ancient knowledge.

    Through uniting the indigenous people with the rest of humanity we have the potential to restore a world in balance.

    Dogon elders of the traditional Kemetic priesthood recognize the necessity in this time to provide an alternative to the destructive/self-destructive lifestyle that the modern, colonial, political, educational and religious systems have maintained for the last two thousand years.

    This knowledge has been guarded by Traditional Dogon Priests, being passed from generation to generation only through intense initiations for thousands of years.

    (The Dogon are not just a tribe residing in the cliffs of Mali but a bloodline consisting of many tribes whos ancestor’s were considered the upper echelon of the Nile and Niger Valley civilizations)

    It is this knowledge that is now being released to the world so we may rid ourselves of the pollution that “modern” society has imposed and return to the knowledge of our ancestors.

    There are links between human beings and the Bayuali (Earth Energies), or, channels of the Earth that have both positive and negative effects.

    Through the dialogue of universal energies of the Bayuali and Yennu, we learn what this means to our existence.

    Bio: Naba Iritah Shenmira

    Naba Iritah Shenmira is a young priest/healer from the Dogon bloodline of the Gourmantche region of Meritah (Africa). In Kemetic society, the Naba bloodline of the Dogon was in charge of the spiritual life of the Pharaoh, keeping the highest levels of spiritual and astronomical knowledge. Iritah was taught his initiatic education through chosen priests/healers in Western Meritah with the guidance of his father, Naba Lamoussa Mordenibig who has since transitioned in 2008.

    Iritah’s teachings include the technical, spiritual and philosophical components of the Medu language (humanity’s original language secretly preserved as traditional Africa’s initiatic language, commonly known as Egyptian hieroglyphs), Ka’at Ibi (traditional meditation), and traditional healing. As a decedent of the Egyptians and their knowledge, Iritah now leads Ankhkasta Natural Healing which is a network of priest/healers throughout West Africa and initiates of The Earth Center Schools.

    With Guidance of the ancestors and Elders from Burkina Faso, the home of the Dogon people, Iritah has been chosen to continue the work began by his father over 20 years ago. This involves sharing the Tem culture and knowledge through, The Earth Center Schools that his father Naba Lamoussa Mordenibig began. These schools can now be found around the United States and the world.

    Iritah’s work and that of The Earth Center is to reconnect ancestral spiritual heritage to preserve humanity, the Earth and the Universal Harmony while building a bridge for all of humanity to re-connect with their ancestral heritage.

    Bio: Bickbaye Inejnema

    Bikbaye Inejnema has followed in the footsteps of the ancestors of the Pharaoh’s of ancient Egypt when he was initiated into the Dogon/Kemetic way of life. He became a dedicated student with Master Naba Lamoussa Mordenibig, an authentic Dogon/Ancient Egyptian high priest and healer of Burkino Faso, West Africa, in the mid 90’s. Bikbaye was taught how to read, write and speak the Medu Neter (Hieroglyphic writing of ancient Egypt) along with having deep understanding of its spiritual and philosophical meanings.

    Working with Naba Lamoussa Mordenibig and following the guidance of Dogon Elders in Merita (Africa) the Kemetic knowledge began to be shared through the formation of ‘The Earth Center’ schools in North America. At the passing of master Naba in 2008, the Dogon Elders gave the responsibility of the initiatic schools to Bikbaye to continue sharing the ancient knowledge with humanity.

    Through Guidance of the ancestors and Elders of the Dogon in Merita, Bickbaye shares the Tem culture and knowledge through, The Earth Center Schools of which he is Herpw Merr (eldest generation overseer). As a cultural activist, teacher, spiritual counselor and traditional healer of the Dogon/Kemetic way of life the process of awakening for humanity is now taught by Bikbaye.

    As the appointed head of The Earth Center schools, Bikbaye is in constant contact with Elders in Merita working to reconnect ancestral spiritual heritage to preserve humanity, the Earth and the Universal Harmony.
