    This is a wonderful book. The photographs are incredible and the writing is informative, not at all what you might have been taught. I have a new appreciation for the Sun Dance. Get the accompanying DVD as well and buy one for a friend!

  • Rating Buy it!  Aug 7, 2009 

    If you like to compare religion, like Sufism, Gnosis, Vedanta, Buddhism, etc... you will be surprise how a tradition that has no books written belongs to the same center.
    A Masterpiece that deliver a bit of the American Indian wisdom from the old times to the new times. Thanks to the Tom Yellow Tail inspiration and the tremendous effort of the producers.
    But if I had something to say, I'd like to know if they kill animals to use in their rituals. The DVD just show them praying before cut a tree for the Sun Dance, but nothing about how the buffalo's head and eagle bones whistles comes into the Sun Dance. So, the DVD show just positive aspects of the American Indians.
    I miss the philosophical talks of the elders (the more esoteric aspects of them), normally present in the Black Elk books and the great chiefs talks.
    This DVD is more historical but equally important.
    The DVD delivered on time, good quality and nice price for this priceless product.

  • Rating Educational Entertainment  Aug 31, 2008 

    This movie captures the beauty of Thomas YellowTail & the sacredness of ritual, primarily the sweat lodge & Sundance. This man has saintly qualities. The film is an excellent resource for educational purposes in schools & beyond. Those featured in the film are the "real deal". It is rare to witness such an authentic representation of Native American ritual. Even rarer to find this in a well put together package for educational & informative purposes. YellowTail does offer native prayers & a very short understanding of basic words in his native tongue. Beautiful.
