before
we smoke it, you must see how it is made and what it means. These four
ribbons hanging here on the stem are the four quarters of the universe.
The black one is for the west where the thunder beings live to send us
rain; the white one for the north, whence comes the great white
cleansing
wind; the red one for the east, whence springs the light and where the
morning star lives to give men wisdom; the yellow for the south, whence
come the summer and the power to grow. But these four spirits are only
one Spirit after all, and this eagle feather here is for that One,
which
is like a father, and also it is for the thoughts of men that should
rise
high as eagles do."</B></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.interluderetreat.com/meditate/4direct.htm"><P>Black Elk (1863-1950) Oglala Sioux holy man
