Native American Clown
• When a vision comes from thunder
beings of the West, it comes with a terror
like a thunder storm; but when the storm
of the vision has passed, the world is
greener and happier; for where ever the
truth of vision comes up on the world, it
is like a rain. The world, you see, is
happier after the terror of the storm.

Native American Clown
• A clown in our language is called a heyoka. He
is upsidedown, backward-forward, yes-and-no
man, a contrary-wise. Everybody can be made
into a clown, from one day to another, whether
he likes it or not. It is very simple to become a
heyoka. All you have to do is dream about the
lightning, the thunder-birds. You do this, and
when you wake up in the morning you are a
heyoka. There is nothing you can do about it.

all directions of ourselves at once,
we could only laugh
at the beauty
of our own ridiculousness.
