The Pan-American Indian Association & Adopted Tribal Peoples Est 1984 We are not an Indian Tribe; we have no ties with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) or any other Tribal authority. We are People from 'All Walks of Life', a Fellowship of Native American Indians and non-native individuals and groups of Mixed Lineages, through marriages and adoptions, which has occurred between the many different tribes and cultures of Earth Mother. We are Brothers and Sisters, who have tried to enroll into their ancestral tribe and for whatever reason have been denied; and for individuals who have felt the calling of the Ancient Turtle Lodge and the Heartbeat Drum beat. We proclaim the Equality of All, who shares this place, to learn and follow the Spiritual Path that touches our Hearts. We affirm the Right and Obligation of each individual to learn, grow and shoulder no more and no less than a fair share of the responsibilities of life. | Everyone not only has the ability to think for his or her self but the Right to do so. This is the Natural Way to learn to respond to nature with a sincere sense of personal responsibility and to let Spirit teach through observation and circumstances. We must walk softly with respect for the Earth Mother and All Our Relations. We affirm the Sacred Responsibility; each one has 'To Harm None', Our Family, Our Community, Our Nation and Our Earth Mother. We are to celebrate and protect what the Giver of the Sacred Breath Blessed upon us. We seek Harmony with All Brothers and Sisters Celebrating and Honoring the Spiritual Teachings, the Good and Sacred that is found in ALL of Creation. The Pan-American Indian Association, a 501 (c)(3) Native-Natural Religious Body, dedicated to the celebration, promotion and preservation of the Ancient Native-Natural Ways of our Elder American Indian relations. We are individuals and groups working together, volunteering within our local communities for the betterment of all, living in harmony with Earth Mother and Sky Father, with respect in the Brother-Sisterhood of being Related. |
