Near-Universal Spiritual Practice of Pre-Colombian North American Peoples: VISION QUESTS
Pre-Colombian Americans universally value their visions and respect others’ visions as a communion that they seek ceremonially, usually alone, but sometimes in groups, between them and nonhuman spirits. Questers choose how they prepare according to what they seek and the customs of their particular tribes.
Throughout North America, vision seekers transform themselves on the basis of nonphysical experiences they get in isolated retreats. In their vision quests, questers pray continuously. They abstain from food, water, and social contact.
Their communities free them from everyday duties while they quest. Adolescents hold vigils for one or two days and nights as rites of passage into adulthood responsibilities. Adults extend quests from four to seven days or longer.
Questers seek waking contact with immaterial and physical beings that may give them personal power and medicinal abilities to benefit their community. They keep particulars of their experiences as private revelations they never fully share with others.
They use the power they gain for their entire community, which thanks them when they return from their quest. Some quests give questers ongoing assistance for healing other people. [Benedict, 1922 & 1923]
Hopi & Zuni Teaching Temples: KIVAS & THEIR 3 MESAS MIRROR ORION’S BELTLINE TO THE PLEIADES
The orally-transmitted narratives of the Hopi people (who nowadays live at the junction of Utah, Arizona and New Mexico) say Earth’s interconnected world-wide civilizations has taken four forms. Periodic Earth-wide catastrophes triggered by meteorite strikes destroyed the first three forms. After each catastrophe, Anunnaki sages helped the Hopi’s ancestors survive until rock bombardment, fires, floods flood and pole shifts abated.
The Hopi call the Anunnaki sages Katsina, Star People or Ant People; Anthropologists the sages Katchinas. In Hopi rituals the sages are represented by masked dancers, many of whom wear spacesuits and have external antennae on their helmets.
The Anunnaki watchers [Ant People, Nephilim, Igigi] warned the Hopi, as they also warned Moses “to follow a cloud of unusual shape by day and a moving star [lighted spacecraft or laser point] by night. The cloud and the night light “led them to a mound of the Ant People [Hopi designation of the Anunnaki] in Central America, which the Hopi’s ancestors reached after the mother continent, Kasskara [Lemuria] sunk in the central Pacific.” “Hopi recall the leader of the Ant People, Anu-Sinon (ant man), as generous, hardworking, willing to provide food to the people and teach them methods of food preservation so they could ride out the prolonged upheaval taking place outside their protective cave (vast man-made cave systems exist throughout the world). The Anunnaki left the sage Massau’u with the Hopi survivors to help them adapt to the Third World, the one we now experience. Members of Massau’u’s entourage rescued the Anasazi as well as the Zuni, survivors from Japan. Massau’u supervised the Hopi’s “initial settlement and migrations that followed.” He could fly huge distances and interact with other worlds. Massau’u gave the Hopi “knowledge written on stone tablets.” [Below]
HOPI SACRED SITE # 1: THE MESAS THEMSELVES MIRROR THE LINE FROM ORION’S BELT THAT POINTS TO THE PLEIADES BELOW “The Hopi village of Oraibi and two other 600-foot high mesas” resemble the belt of the constellation Orion, which points in the sky to the Pleiades, from which the Hopi say their ancestors came to Earth [Orion’s belt and the Pleiades are the focal points of Anunnaki temples placed on Earth’s portals–Missing Lands: 277—288]
