In Australia and the other countries where the invading Christians occupied native lands by force and brutality the truth of these times is being more widely understood. In my travels to Canada and the United States I have had the overwhelming feeling that I have had many past lives as an Indian. When I was in Calgary, Canada, I saw a picture of a chief and I felt a strong and instinctive bond with him. His name was ‘Sitting on an Eagle Tail’, chief of the North Peigans, one of a group of tribes that went under the overall name of Blackfoot.

I have had scores of ‘coincidences’ happen to me since my awakening became conscious in 1990, but that was a real stunner. I began to read widely of the Indian period in North America and, as with my visits to former Indian lands, I have felt a deep and painful sadness at the way that culture and understanding was swept away in such a short time.
