Okay then, for those of you who didn't like the Navajo song about happiness and prosperity (part of the Enemy Way Chant) that I posted this evening, here's one that may be more appropriate. :nuts:

If you, like I, find you are interested in Native American spirit songs, the Yeha Noha is part of the Enemy Way Chant. Protection ceremonies, especially the Blessing Way Ceremony, are used for Navajos that leave the boundaries of the four sacred mountains, and is used extensively for Navajo warriors or soldiers going to war.

Upon re-entry, there is an Enemy Way Ceremony, or Nidáá', performed on the person, to get rid of the evil things in his/her body, and to restore balance in his/her life. This is also important for Navajo warriors/soldiers returning from battle. Warriors or soldiers often suffer spiritual or psychological damage from participating in warfare, and the Enemy Way Ceremony helps restore harmony to the person, mentally and emotionally.

Does the music have more meaning if you listen to it again?
