The people who's spiritual texts are central to the spiritual history of the world have their masculine and feminine spiritual leaders, historical and contemporary recognized because of the role they have in the world and we all acknowledge their important roles. If these other groups begin to assume certain important worldly roles, then certainly we might begin to know and recognize their great secular and spiritual leaders. This is how the world works.
As Mexican Americans and Hispanic Americans have a greater role in America we come to recognize more and more of them and people who are central to their secular and spiritual histories. More and more Americans are learning and relearning their language. This is how the world works. The Spirit has always known these great Mexican peoples and their great histories and their great Spiritual Leaders. Perhaps the world shall also come to know them.
What do we mean? The Spirit always knew the Jewish people even when they were the lowest of the low among tribal peoples. The Spirit always knew them and had/has and continues to have a role for them. But this is true of all the different peoples. The Spirit also witnesses how the world deal with all the different peoples, from the lowest primitives, to the worlds understanding, to the highest technological peoples. The Spirit bears witness to and with all of these peoples, and continues to do so. Their Spiritual Leaders recognize this and continue to recognize this.
Before the conquerors made an appearance on the American landscape, the Spiritual Leaders of the native peoples, for example, if you believe them, were told about these conquerors, and even why they were to make an appearance to "conquer" America.
Many of the spiritual and sacred texts and scientific texts of these great peoples were destroyed. Perhaps these texts shall be restored to us, through the old messengers and/or the contemporary messengers of these peoples. Some of these texts, if they had not been destroyed, would probably be among the great and classic texts of our many civilizations. This history can be found in The Broken Speears: The Aztec Account of the Conquest of Mexico. Translated from Nahuatl into Spanish by Angel Maria Garibay K. and English Translation by Lysander Kemp. It should be good to retell this history on film from the point of view not of the conquerors but the Aztecs.
There are many such histories and stories, secular and spiritual.
Males in leadership roles can study all of these historical and postmodern roles. Females have critiqued their civilizations in their feminist writings. However, masculine leadership must critique their own civilization, the secular and spiritual leadership roles and role-playing.
