Arvol Looking Horse

  • ... that at the age of 12 the Lakota spiritual leader Arvol Looking Horse became the youngest ever Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe and Bundle? Source: "Chief Arvol Looking Horse became chief and the 19th keeper of the Original Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe of the Lakota, Dakota and Nakota Nation of the Sioux at 12 years old, the youngest to ever hold this exalted position known as the "sacred bundle keeper."" (The Horseman, The Malibu Times)
    • ALT1:... that Lakota spiritual leader Arvol Looking Horse became paralyzed from the neck down after a horse riding accident, but regained the ability to walk despite his doctors' prognosis? Source: "He was paralyzed from the neck down and both knees were shattered. Speaking to him through his beloved grandmother, the Spirit White Buffalo Woman said she was going to give him his life back so he could stand with his people. Call it miraculous, call it good fortune, but Looking Horse eventually defied doctor’s predictions and regained the power to walk" (The Horseman, The Malibu Times)
