The Ten Native American commandments

The Ten native American Commandments 

1     Treat the Earth and all that dwell thereon with respect.

2.       Remain close to the Great Spirit.

3.       Show great respect for your fellow beings.

4.       Work together for the benefit of humankind.

5.       Give assistance and kindness wherever needed.

6.       Do what you know to be right.

7.       Look after the well-being of mind and body.

8.       Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater good.

9.       Be truthful and honest at all times.

10.   Take full responsibility for your actions.

These commandments are a list of moral codes that ALL Native Americans must follow. I think these commandments are very important since they were the reason for Indians to  be so respectful to not only the land but also to their fellow Native Americans. I feel that if their moral codes were like this at the time that we stole their land land than we were definitely in the wrong. Since they promote peace and love. I also think that it is not right how we treat the Native Americans for example the North Dakota  access pipe line where the pipe would run through sacred land and not only that but the police would use excessive force towards the protesters. Native Americans were good people who wanted their people to be the best. They had so much respect not only for themselves but for everything and everyone. Native Americans are good people who we should try to model everyday no matter what. No matter all they were put through they still chose the right.
