Description

Saw this in a building at a viewing point over the Grand Canyon. This is a painting and I believe there are a lot of meanings in there! Worth a zoom. From my archives.

outstanding Native American art and capture. I have been in the building also. a lady tourist said "how" to a Native American man. he replied, "I know how, all I want to know is when!!"

this appears to be a sand painting, but it has been altered slightly so as not to have the power that would normally occur with the true image. they are used in various 'Ways' specifically (from Wiki) Sandpaintings are but one rite in a ceremonial. From the distinct set of paintings that belong to a specific chant, the chanter selects those that will best heal the patient, never using the entire repertoire of paintings on a single occasion. when the healing is finished, the painting is destroyed.

Navajo tribal meaning know doubt and beyond us mere mortals.. Everything had its living Manitou (spirit), there was a way of life where everything was in balance and everything honoured.. So, we think we are better huh? I think not.. Fine shot mate. Rob
