Squamish Nation Pow Wow 2011 FULL REGALIA Dance

www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcnA5nUNSE4

 

Squamish Nation Pow Wow 2011 GRAND ENTRY

www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiL5R3ac5D8&;

 

Native Indian bands from across BC and elsewhere congregated at the Squamish Nation Pow Wow 2011 held at the Capilano Indian Reserve in North Vancouver from July 08-10, 2011. They came to greet each other and celebrate their culture together at this annual event in their traditional territory of the Coast Salish land.

 

Aboriginal men and women in full regalia danced in the Grand Entry and participated in the Invocation. They also competed as individuals in different categories like in a sports event. The modern day Pow Wow is very much a family affair. The occasion presents an opportunity for the community to recognize the work and contribution of the native women. At the same time, the role that the younger ones can play is also very much part of the agenda.

 

Nowadays, many native youths live in urban areas away from the reserve and are increasingly alienated from the Land that the aboriginal society has such an affinity with. The Pow Wow therefore becomes an ideal place for the youngster to reconnect with their cultural being and way of life, thus preserving the native tradition that goes back thousands of years.

 

The Squamish Nation of BC is also part of the Four Host First Nations, a very important partner of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

There is a old Manx tradition for Good Friday (Jeheiney Caisht), of going to the shore and gathering flitters fresh from the rocks. These are then cooked in their shells there on the beach and eaten, without metal being used at all in any of the process.

Additionally, a Manx Gaelic invocation was also recorded, for when the shells were throw back into the sea:

 

"Gow shoh as bannee orrin"

/

"Take this and bless us"

 

The Flitter Dance was then said to have been danced over the embers of the fire.

 

More about this Manx tradition tradition (said to reach back to beliefs pre-existing Christianity on the Isle of Man) can be found here:

- History Church of St Pierre d'Auxerre

- From the first centuries of Christianity, the lower part of the city had, like others, its church and monastery were placed under the invocation of St. Peter. Some authors have tried as Saint Peter's Church took over a pagan temple high in the old Autricus; others attribute the origin to Saint Pilgrim himself, but there is nothing to accept these traditions.

JPEG - 9.8 koSaint Pierre

- In Regulation saint Aunaire for public prayers (late sixth century) we find, for the first time, the mention of the Basilica of St. Peter, later called Church of St. Peter and St. Paul. Clerks there were officers by the bishops under the direction of a canon of the cathedral was the dean. They were responsible for the instruction of the Gallo-Roman people of this part of the old city that still remained.

- The irruption of the Saracens, in the middle of the eighth century, stopped the peaceful life of the clergy and destroyed the homes that, outside of the city, had escaped the invasion of Attila.

- After many vicissitudes, the Saint-Pierre, became a college of canons, was restored in 1107 by Bishop Humbaud who established the Canons Regular of the institution Yves de Chartres, of the order of church St Augustine, and began a dean at their head. In 1277 a major fire badly damaged the monastery

- 1470, Guy de Toucy transformed the Chapter as the abbey of Saint-Piere du Bourg to distinguish the church of Saint-Pierre-en-Castle which was in the precincts of the city (Labbe, man. I library., 458). This time reborn, to St. Peter, an era of prosperity endowments bishops and the regularity of its religious assured her church. In the fourteenth century the Hundred Years War the impoverished many, and never could recover from its importance.

- In 1567, the capture of the city by the Huguenots brought the plunder of the Saint-Père, and burning of the abbey home. Bands of soldiers, who were masters of the town, had set fire to the tower of the church recently built at the expense of the inhabitants of the parish. The roof was burnt and the bells melted, but the tower remained standing.

- The boundaries of the parish Holy Father and censive Abbey in the sixteenth century may give an idea of what remained of the Gallic city after the establishment of Christianity. To determine, simply draw a line Chantepinot door to St. Pancras Tower from the right side of the street Paul Bert, Nicolas Moor of Butchers and Sub-Walls. The river as a basis for the east and the city walls to the south. Leaving the city the way that leads to Preuilly beside the Fatet house, and all climates that are between the path and the river were also censive of the Holy Father (Sentence of the bailiwick of Auxerre were followed October 8, 1565. Fund of the Saint-Père). The parish of Saint Pilgrim, being a branch of the Holy Father, was encompassed within its boundaries.

- But it was not until the construction of the city walls that the parish Holy Father took an increase that was not stopped by the war and destruction that always followed. The monks acted, again, as we have already seen in other areas, they gave leases to perpetual annuities vacant land their vast parish in charge to establish homes (The Sentence of the Bailiwick 1565 reports "that this estoit formerly arable land, and gardens and some clozeaux bastimens we tenoit Abbey."). The fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, there are still traces of these operations (Archive 1'Yonne, Pope Fund).

- The Abbot of the Holy Father was primitive priest of the parish church, and he often had disputes with the parishioners. A monk tells these discussions with your bias and curious complaint. The altar of the parish was placed at the door of the choir since the organization of the parish in the twelfth century. But later time, the nave, which was very small, not enough, they wanted to invade the choir. - Resistance of the monks, trial and conviction of the parishioners. There were also quarrels without number, for the latter, about the use of bells, which are placed in the high tower in the middle of the choir, were not readily available to them. Also, at the beginning of the sixteenth century, they resolved to build a beautiful tower next to their church to place their own bells. The company, started in 1536, was completed in 1577.

Invocation of Ganesha, fire and water.

 

From the adapted Hindu ceremony handout:

 

As is the custom and practice, Lord Ganesha, Agni (Fire) and Jal (Water) are invoked along with other Gods and Goddesses to witness the ceremony and bless the couple and the assembled guests.

U.S. Army Chaplain (Capt.) Azande Sasa gives the invocation during the opening ceremony for the National Association of Landscape Professionals’ 19th annual Renewal and Remembrance at Arlington National Cemetery, July 20, 2015. Over 400 volunteers worked on 200 of the cemetery’s 624 acres. Some of the work done was mulching, pruning, aerating, planting, liming and applying gypsum. (U.S. Army photo by Rachel Larue/released)

The Basilica of St. Michael the Archangel (placed under the invocation of St. Michael the Archangel ) is a church catholic located in the heart of the historical center of Menton . Since the road from the seafront , with majestic staircases allow to gradually reach the site where, on a spot in the stalls CALADE triumph whole perspective of the baroque architecture .

At the beginning of the xvii th century, desired by Prince Honoré II of Monaco , its construction was entrusted to the architect Lorenzo Lavagna. TheMay 27 1619The first stone was laid in the presence of the prince and lord Nicolà Spinola, bishop of Ventimiglia which depended Menton and Roquebrune while Monaco depended on the Bishop of Nice. Excavation works actually began in 1639 and the church was opened for worship in 1653 . Finally, theMay 8 1675The bishop of Ventimiglia Monsignor Mauro Promontorio dedicated the new church in the presence of Prince Louis I st . In 1701 , the architect Emmanuel Cantone erects a tower of fifty-three meters high, real watchtower overlooking the city. Its current facade was completed in 1819 in the spirit of the baroque of the xvii th century.

 

Inside, the vast nave with four bays form a large Latin cross . The choir , preceded by a triumphal arch is decorated with stucco marble with pilasters dishes. A painted wooden statue of 1820 representing Saint Michael slaying the dragon overcomes the altar in polychrome marble. The side chapels are decorated with altarpieces baroque. One is dedicated to Saint Devote . Some had been granted to wealthy families of Menton.

 

Beautiful organ in the choir (XVII c.) Unknown factor. It has been often attributed to Gio Oltrachino (Jean Utrect), organ builder native of this town, located in Genoa and which is known by many constructions organ archives in Liguria - only one still existing intact in Alassio - and Monaco: the parish church of Saint-Nicolas Monaco dated 1639 (current buffet that of St. Charles church restructured by architect Charles Lenormand and Merklin), that of the palatine chapel (1639) disappeared and another organo portatile the same time also disappeared. Gio Oltracchino died in Genoa in 1647 and the organ of Saint-Michel can not be attributed to him.

 

In 1999 , the Saint-Michel church is raised to the dignity of minor basilica by Pope John Paul II , and consecrated basilica in January 2000 . Since 1949 , each year in August, the square hosts the famous Festival of Classical Music . She is one of the most visited attractions in the Alpes-Maritimes.

 

The Basilica (and its square ; other items were enrolled at other dates) is the subject of a classification as historical monuments since 3 March 1947

Vellattam or Vellattu is an invocative ritual held prior to the actual Theyyam performance. Bhagavathy literally means Mother Goddess. Bhagavathy Theyyam is an embodiment of the primal feminine energy that manifests itself in the bodies of men.

Squamish Nation Pow Wow 2011 FULL REGALIA Dance

Squamish Nation Pow Wow 2011 GRAND ENTRY

www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiL5R3ac5D8&;

 

Native Indian bands from across BC and elsewhere congregated at the Squamish Nation Pow Wow 2011 held at the Capilano Indian Reserve in North Vancouver from July 08-10, 2011. They came to greet each other and celebrate their culture together at this annual event in their traditional territory of the Coast Salish land.

 

Aboriginal men and women in full regalia danced in the Grand Entry and participated in the Invocation. They also competed as individuals in different categories like in a sports event. The modern day Pow Wow is very much a family affair. The occasion presents an opportunity for the community to recognize the work and contribution of the native women. At the same time, the role that the younger ones can play is also very much part of the agenda.

 

Nowadays, many native youths live in urban areas away from the reserve and are increasingly alienated from the Land that the aboriginal society has such an affinity with. The Pow Wow therefore becomes an ideal place for the youngster to reconnect with their cultural being and way of life, thus preserving the native tradition that goes back thousands of years.

 

The Squamish Nation of BC is also part of the Four Host First Nations, a very important partner of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games.
