07/07/24 - Chief Arvol Looking Horse
Host Tiokasin Ghosthorse’s guest for the full hour on Sunday is Chief Arvol Looking Horse. Chief Looking Horse was born on the Cheyenne River Reservation in South Dakota. His primary responsibility is serving as the 19th Generation Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe – a role he was given at the age of twelve making him the youngest pipe keeper in Lakota history. As keeper of the sacred Pipe he also serves as the spiritual leader to the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota Nation and advocates for the restoration of the Lakota Nation’s rights to the Black Hills—as guaranteed by the 1868 Laramie Treaty.
Tiokasin and Chief Arvol Looking Horse talk about the white buffalo calf that was born in Yellowstone on June 4 and the significance of this birth to not only for the Lakota but other people and what it means to the world. “We knew in our ceremonies that something was going to happen (on June 4) because they say that when you follow the spirit, the spirit will meet you halfway... This is a very powerful time. All my life, I heard this in ceremony but I never thought my whole life that this was going to happen. I feel her (Mother Earth's) spirit is very strong and we need all people all over the world to stand with us and protect her. That’s the message — when the white buffalo calf with black nose, eyes and hooves, many white animals will be born all over the world. The elders said we need to protect all the white animals being born. We need to protect the peace leaders because we’re in a very powerful time right now that every person – to find peace within yourself and then peace to the world because what is happening is not good.” — Chief Arvol Looking Horse
