notes

My brother and I are proud to sing these Ceremonial Peyote Songs for you and learn it if you like it. My name is Atrez M. Begay and my little brother is Byron M. Begay. Our clan is (Kinlichii'nii) Red House clan born for (Lok'aa'dine'e) Reed People. We're from Rock Point, Arizona. We gave a lot of thought about recording these songs because we respect it, but we wanted to share it with you and try to pass it on as they were passed on to us. We hope that you enjoy these prayer songs and use them wisely.

These songs are appreciated songs, prayer songs, healing songs, and different season songs, all season songs, evening songs and happy occasion songs. In some of these peyote songs we address the Great Spirit, asking for blessing and calling for help. Some of the songs have their own meanings and some are just straight songs. It was told to us the peyote is a "divine herb". In the beginning the Great Spirit told his children, the Indian people, to call this plant a divine herb, divine medicine. The Great Spirit created this great plant in the beginning and put his divine healing in it, powers, richest blessings, spiritual movements, knowledge, love and comfort, and gave it to his children, the Indian people. He gave these things to his people so that they could glorify and communicate with him through mysterious ways of prayers and songs.

    Being raised within the Native American Church for most of all my life, I have heard my own faithful Father sing these songs. These church songs will forever make my heart, mind and soul stronger in faith every single time I hear them. Mr. Byron Begay and Mr. Atrez Begay, have certainly expressed their faith in singing these songs together. The beating of the drum and the timing of the gourd, along with the vocalizations, is a reverent act. Atrez and Byron Begay elucidate praise respectfully through their choice of songs. No matter the difference of tribe or faith, or the number of people from sovereign nations listening, the unique sound of prayer through their drum, gourd and song is truly spiritual and unifying for all who will listen. Most especially, for all of those who are members in the Native American Church!
