Thomas One Wolf's Vision
~Spoken By Thomas One Wolf,
a Native American elder from the Saquamish
(the tribe of the famous Chief Seattle in Washington State),
at the World Vision Conference
Those
of the Great People (Tewa, Hopi, Lakota, Navajo, Cree and all other tribes)
and of my tribe, the two-legged, we have come here together. Thomas and Sherri
One Wolf did not create this, you did.
If even one of you had
walked by this microphone and told me there was Hope, that would have been enough
to listen.
I carry a message. I
seek no recognition. I will take no credit nor any blame. There are many reminders
of what was and as we fade and grow smaller, it is my prayer that the family
of the One will come together.
The old ones gave me
a reason to walk on. As my own Chief Seattle said "I mourn not." I
don't see a speech when I look at his world. I see it as a vision, as a fulfilment.
I have witnessed his vision.
Fourteen years ago,
I was given one. I didn't know what it meant. All I knew is what I had seen.
I waited all these years. My father and I were at a Congress of Native American
people, and he said that it was time.

There is only one thing
I conclude from this vision. I pray you see the Hope in this vision and maybe
apply some serious want to know. Many will be troubled by it, I pray that you
see the Hope.
In Grandfather's (God's)
greatest Plan, Hes doesn't trust us with Hiers Plan. Hes won't let us see the
other side because we would go there.
People who came here
were the people of progress. To these days the Wisdom Keepers kept all that,
holding on to it. Then came the dark clouds - greed, power, wealth. These were
the sorrowful days of accomplishment. Greed, power and wealth were the same
horses ridden by the progress man. I feared it would be the Indians that would
be terminated, but the old ones assured me it would return on themselves.
The children are the
heirs of the armor. We leave to our children a garden of poison and armor. I
carry a vision, it isn't a warning but a Hope; a dream of Hope is easily extinguished.
I could read volumes of devastation done by man. The vision that has come is
that of Hope and the good shall know these results.
Great Spirit used this
vessel to reveal a vision. In the distance, I see fires burning. I see great
sunrays, great thunder and dark places. There is a child in the mist. She comes
as a spark of Hope. The day of the Spirit Man has come. No fear, no joy, just
a place of peaceful acceptance, a child with Hope.
In 1999, you the messengers
will carry the message for Hope of one pure breath to the third door. In the
year 2000 we will open the final door.
There is another great
inevitability. Mother Earth is changing -- Great waves, fires, rain, flood waters,
tornadoes, et cetera. Is anyone listening? Over-population; pollution.
There is Hope, it's
small but it's Hope. The great fires, storms of death will occur. The child
is the final Hope for change.
Seek man's power and
wealth and you will lose it. Money and power shall be used for good; if not,
Hope dies.
Cancer is too far to
heal in the house of power; they will consume each other.
The day of the Spirit
Man has come. The time of choice is here. Good or darkness for everyone.
I apologize to the young,
under 30 years old, to have taken a part in destroying your planet and your
future.
Go and tell the world
that Good has come, sing the song of Hope. It's your choice. What can we do?
It'll be known to you in good time. Joy, peace and Hope live on the road of
Good. Some come to create, some come to help, all must come. Choosing Good and
walking your talk will bring you peace.
If you use your gift
for self-gain, you'll know no peace, no joy and sleepless nights. A wave is
coming to all the shores of Mother Earth.
My people told me many
stories about the beginning of life. Which one is the right one? My grandfather
told me "All of them." In the words of Chief Seattle, "We may
be brothers after all and we shall see."
We have got to become
the good united tribe of the two-legged. If we don't, we will know the storms
I have seen.
My judgement ends with
how many legs you have.
I love you, everyone
of you with all that I am and all I will ever be. I am incapable of doing anything
but loving you. It is so, it is as it should be.
