Understanding Baha and Bundle Practices

My people believe that the energy in this bundle is the same energy that moves the trees, that makes the sun shine, that makes us walk and talk, that makes things grow. We call it Baha. the power that moves moves. It's in everything. It's an inherent neutral power that you can draw down and put in a concentrated form like this bundle, or you can draw down and create whatever spiritual entities you want, or you can draw down and manifest in so many wonderful and good ways.

People in this world that know how to draw this energy down can also manifest this in very horrible ways. because it's a neutral power. So the energy of all these people's prayers and dances and things, including Mr. Blanchard and I, are in these bundles.

Now what do you do with the bundle? Well, it rests on a tripod at the bundle keeper's home, and the bundle keepers take good care of it. I myself have personal bundles that I carry with me at all times, but community bundles and tribal bundles are a tremendous responsibility. I don't think that I could be a bundle keeper for a community or tribe.

because there's too, too much responsibility with it. Right on. And so it's good, we commend it to people like Ted here, and the other people that, the seven dances, and soon to be eight, that are going, that carry this for the people. Now how do you connect with this bundle? Well it's very simple.

If you have a medicine arrow that has been part of the bundle, because they're placed in there and then sometimes given back, well then you can use that. Or you can just simply, simply visualize where the bundle is and talk to the bundle that way. Or if you want a more intimate contact with this bundle, well then you can request a bundle keeper to come and sit with the bundle at where the bundle stays. Or you can send offerings of cloth or tobacco.

And you can, that way with a specific request of prayers, well something's going bad in my life, or even a thankful prayer, so things are going good in my life. You send that to the bundle keeper and the bundle keeper will send you the offering. keeper will place that tobacco or that cloth or that offering on that bundle where it will rest.

So there's many many different ways of connecting with these beings because indeed they are living beings. We've endued the energy and the power to make them what they are. And they're very aware of what's happening with people that they have a connection.

with and people that they don't have a connection with. You know, so I know this for a fact. This particular bundle here, some years ago, I had the, I was in a very interesting situation where I was riding with it in the back of a car in Utah.

And the bundle don't necessarily talk to you, but it gives you impressions. And, you know, one of the impressions was. Well, where's my tripod? I was going through a very interesting change that time.

Okay. So, if you have a connection with them, or even if you don't, if you touch it, well, it's going to listen to all the prayers that were said here, and move things, just by you holding it, and saying the good things you have with it. So, thank you. And thank you for taking such wonderful care of this one.

Who's in? Okay, who? Okay. Thank you all. You've changed.

Oh. Thank you. And you've changed the bundle. Thank you.
