Summary: please save your money
Comment: I read this book again, again , and wander where he got his teachings. I really wish he would be honest and tell the Truth that he is not a Yuwipi man. I want to know more of the Yuwipi men but this isn't appealing Please save your money and buy Black Elk Speaks Thanks

Summary: Its A Shame
Comment: I have never heard of Gary Holy Bull Nor has he ever practice among the Lakota People on the Pine Ridge Reservation, I know there are many who say they are yuwipi Medicine men but I do like to think that this book can be honest atleast to say that Mr Holy Bull is not a Yuwipi Man. I do not tear this man down but the book and what is written about the ceremonies...Will the Truth ever come out?

Summary: Lakota Indian Spirituality
Comment: The subject of Native American healing and spirituality is one that is not easily approached in a world of juried scientific reviews and instant computer data analysis. The topic refuses to be measured, quantified or otherwise put into the boxes we humans like to safely file out own biases into.
As a Native American physician, I am faced with this dilemma every day: how to walk in two worlds with one spirit.
I met Gary and Rita Holy Bull several years ago and heard a number of these stories first hand. I had never repeated them to anyone as they are their stories and not mine to share. I was always impressed by his intimate and personal way of sharing his life and beliefs. I was quite surprised and pleased to see them in print and hear them on the accompanying CD.
This is no ordinary "New Age" second person book about Lakota spirituality: it is in the first person from the source itself. I wonder how long it will take those in search of Lakota Indian spirituality to discover his words. They are given great power as they are spoken from his heart. He discloses as much as he can. Much more cannot be written. Yet the well done art work from the Sun Dance Arbor to that of Gary and Rita at their home in South Dakota make this more of a personal letter and message to the reader rather than yet another opus on Indian spirituality.
Let the reader beware that Indian spirituality themes overlap each other but keep in mind that this work is specifically Lakota Indian in its focus.
Many Tribes and New Age Practitioners have adopted parts of the Lakota/Dakota/Nakota culture both in dress and ceremony. The reader should remember that just as there are many different Indian tribes, likewise Indians take many different paths to ceremonies and practices that ultimately lead them to their own paths and relationships to Creator. This is but one of many.
The serious reader searching for his own path would do well to add "Lakota Yuwipi Man" to their library.
