AS INDIAN PEOPLE THE PAST SEVERAL GENERATIONS OF OUR LIFE HAVE BEEN DIFFICULT. WE COULD EASILY IDENTIFY WITH THE DESPERATE FIGURE "END OF THE TRAIL" SCULPTED IN 1915 BY JAMES EARLE FRASER.
THE SOUL OF OUR PEOPLE DESPAIRED IN AGONY FOR A STYLE OF LIFE OUR GRAND FATHERS ONCE KNEW AND LOVED. OUR PEOPLE FELT THE POIGNANT COLD WIND SOARING OUR CIVILIZATION CLOSER IN REALITY TO THE PROPHETIC WORDS OF "END OF THE TRAIL".
IN CONFUSED DESPERATION, THE SOUL OF OUR PEOPLE REACHED OUT TO THE "CREATOR" FOR NEWNESS OF LIFE.
NOT LONG AGO, THE "GREAT SPIRIT" REACHED DOWN AND IN THE HOLLOW OF HIS HAND GAVE OUR PEOPLE THE FIRST SUNRISE OF NEW LIFE ONCE LOVED AND LOST AWHILE.
WITH THANKFULNESS IN OUR HEARTS, WE POINT OUR SACRED PIPE TO THE NORTH AND UPWARDS TO SHOW RESPECT FOR THE "GREAT SPIRIT" (THE CREATOR) FOR GRANTING US NEW STRENGTH AND DIGNITY.
I OFTEN THINK OF MY GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDFATHER CHIEF AHTAHKAKOOP (A HEAD-CHIEF SIGNATORY OF TREATY NO. 6 SIGNED IN 1876) WHO AGONIZED VERY DEEPLY OVER THE POSSIBLE DEATH OF OUR CIVILIZATION.
MY GREAT, GREAT, GREAT GRANDFATHER CHIEF AHTAHKAKOOP SPENT THE FINAL YEARS OF HIS LIFE ON OUR RESERVATION ENCOURAGING HIS PEOPLE TO WALK CLOSER WITH OUR CREATOR.

The Hopi gave Robert the circle of tourquoise arourd his neck, this is along with the cross given by the Pope at the Vatican.

~ Idea 4001 ~
2 June 2001, having returned from Santa Barbara to our blessed farmhouse on sacred Mt. Rasur in Costa Rica, above the UN University for Peace, I was deeply enthralled by the announcement that there will be a great Costa Rican celebration of World Environment Day on 5 June at the University for Peace. It reminded me of the birth of the idea of holding the first world environment conference, (see A Point in History, in Volume VI).
Yes, what a blessing to see a World Environment Day on a sacred hill where the indigenous God of children appeared to them and prophecized that from that hill a civilization of peace and nature protection will extend to the entire world. I had just finished my 4000 Ideas and Dreams for a Better World and I wondered if I should stop or continue to write down more of them. I received the message that I should continue.
Then at dawn on the following morning, sitting at my desk with one of the most beautiful, inspiring views on Earth, I found in the drawer an old dilapidated text which had not been thrown away. It was the indigenous invocation GREAT SPIRIT, GRANT US STRENGTH AND DIGNITY TO WALK A NEW TRAIL.
To find that text was one of those mysterious circumstances in which there was a message. It was that it should be the Introduction to my 4001 to 4500 ideas and dreams. Below the name of the author I added: "endorsed by Kogyun Deyo" (Spider Boy of the House of Mica), the name the Hopis gave me when they invited me to Hautevilla in Arizona (see Volume III, pg. 36).
The duty given to me by the Hopis was to spin a big spider web to catch in it all evil on Earth and throw it far away into the universe.
My 4000 ideas were part of it, but there remained so much more to do.
May God and you, dear readers, help me to become a successful Kogyun Deyo. Together we must spin the vast spider web and get rid once and forever of all evil, hatred, wars and armaments from this heavenly, miraculous, beautiful planet. Let us all become Kogyun Deyos and Kogyun Deyas, Spider Boys and Spider Girls of Planet Earth.
