Inspirational words indeed. I appreciate all the inspirational messages I can get!
However, there seems to be no Hopi Chief White Eagle. This is one of those things periodically misattributed to Native wise leaders, disproportionately Hopi. Do a web search of Hopi Chief White Eagle for more info. The article on Elsewhere.org is particularly informative.
Respectfully offered,
Davíd

> This moment humanity is experiencing can be seen as a door or a hole.
> The decision to fall in the hole or walk through the door is up to you.
> If you consume the news 24 hours a day, with negative energy, constantly nervous, with pessimism,
> you will fall into this hole.
> But if you take the opportunity to look at yourself, to rethink life and death, to take care of yourself and others,
> then you will walk through the portal.
>
> Take care of your home, take care of your body. Connect with your spiritual home.
> When you take care of yourself, you take care of everyone at the same time.
> Do not underestimate the spiritual dimension of this crisis.
>
> Take the perspective of an eagle that sees everything from above with a broader view.
> There is a social question in this crisis, but also a spiritual question.
> The two go hand in hand.
>
> Without the social dimension we fall into fanaticism.
> Without the spiritual dimension, we fall into pessimism and futility.
> Are you ready to face this crisis? Grab your toolbox and use all the tools at your disposal.
>
> Learn resistance from the example of Indian and African peoples: we have been and are exterminated.
> But we never stopped singing, dancing, lighting a fire and rejoicing.
> Don't feel guilty for feeling blessed in these troubled times.
> Being sad or angry doesn't help at all. Resistance is resistance through joy!
>
> You have the right to be strong and positive.
> And there's no other way to do it than to maintain a beautiful, happy, bright posture.
> Has nothing to do with alienation (ignorance of the world).
>
> It's a resistance strategy.
> When we cross the threshold, we have a new worldview because we faced our fears and difficulties.
> This is all you can do now:
> Serenity in the storm
> Keep calm, pray everyday
>
> Make a habit of meeting the sacred everyday.
> Show resistance through art, joy, trust and love.
