WELCOME TO THE CIRCLE!
The Yunsai Society is a Medicine Society that honors the lofty Spirit of humanity’s ancient indigenous traditions and seeks to re-embed this Spirit into the context of contemporary life. We “do Medicines” that nurture and heal all varieties and dimensions of humanity’s ills.
Our path is the Way of Beauty. We embrace one primary rule–Respect (Gohiyuhi). Beyond this, there is still much to learn!
The traditions we learn, live and teach are based upon Universal Principles given by the Ancients to all Humankind in the beginning of the First World. These Principles function within the universe regardless of anyone’s belief to the contrary. These Principles serve the Creation of balance and harmony.
“Yunsai,” pronounced “yun-sah-eye,” is the Cherokee word for “buffalo.” The White Buffalo, as seen at the top of our shield, represents our Mother Lodge, the lodge of the North.
The Yunsai Society is comprised of people from around the world, people of all colors, nations and creeds. White symbolizes the diversity of our Society because the color white–when projected through a prism–is seen to consist of all the colors of the rainbow.
The buffalo represents the Principle of unlimited generosity. Throughout the world, down through timeless eras, buffalo of many variety provided the People with food, clothing and shelter and were appreciated and held Sacred. To be a “Buffalo Heart” is to serve humanity with an open, generous heart.
We welcome you to our Circle and our Fire.
