The Soul of the Indian Summary
| THE SOUL OF THE INDIAN is Charles Eastman?s fascinating study of the religious and spiritual life of the Indian people, as he knew them over 100 years ago. He explores the Dakota belief in God??the Great Mystery?, ceremonies, symbolism, the moral code of the Dakota and much more. Eastman was born on the Santee Reservation in Minnesota in 1858. His grandparents raised him after his mother?s death and his father?s capture during the ?Minnesota Sioux Uprising?. At the age of 15 he was reunited with his father and embarked on a life in white man?s society. He became a doctor and spent the rest of his life helping Indian people cope with the changes to their world and trying to reconcile the opposing values and beliefs of white society and Sioux culture. |

|
| This book is an illumination of Indian spritual befiefs and practices. Although a convert to Christianity, Charles Eastman never lost his sense of the wholeness and beauty of the Indian's relation to his existance and to the natural world. The Soul of the Indian treats the reader to a good look at the ethics and morality of a culture that so few people know anything about. Please Note: This book is in easy to read true text, not scanned images that can sometimes be difficult to decipher. This eBook has bookmarks at chapter headings and is printable. |

| Long before I ever heard of Christ, or saw a white man, I had learned from an untutored woman the essence of morality. With the help of dear Nature herself, she taught me things simple but of mighty import. I knew God. I perceived what goodness is. I saw and loved what is really beautiful. Civilization has not taught me anything better! |

C.A. Eastman, a Sioux Indian, published this book in 1911. Passed down by tribal elders, it is a facinating look at the old beliefs held by Sioux Indians before they knew the white man. "We also have a religion which was given to our forefathers, and has been handed down to us their children. It teaches us to be thankful, to be united, and to love one another! We never quarrel about religion." |
