Inhaltsangabe

Grounded in music, this book describes a Lakota ceremony in terms of the music used in each successive element of the ceremony from start to finish. Within this framework, the author, a widely known and respected Lakota singer, ceremonial leader and healer who happens also to have been educated at Dartmouth College and Harvard University, describes and expands upon the formative personal encounters with his Lakota elders on the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota that lead him to his current understanding of each part of the ceremony. Strange as it may seem given the subject matter, Native American Healing: A Lakota Ceremony is a unique individual perspective on living well in widest possible sense of the word. These narratives function much like commentaries on I Ching hexagrams -- illumination and explication of practical applications of the natural laws that govern the art of peaceful and productive living.
