It Wasn't enough though that an Indian would come back from his ordeal and say that he had found a divine spirit who had granted him success. I-Ie had to establish the potency of his vision by success- fully engaging in some dangerous enterprise such as stealing the horses of a neigh- boring tribe or administering the coup-de-grace to an enemy in battle. Several Indian religious practices suggest Christian practices. Whenever Christians want something very much, they appeal for aid by means of offertories and vows. These vows usually involve fasting, abstention from pleasure, and other forms of self-denial. In a similar manner, the Indian makes a vow only when in danger of death. Then he promises the Sun God to do the Sun Dance if the Sun God will avert destruction. If the Indian escapes he fulfills his vow by doing the Sun Dance the next summer. To show that he personally did not fear death but only asked for life for the sake of his loved one, he inilicts severe torture upon his body. He does this by passing tongs, hanging from a high pole, through slits cut in his chest and back and tying these in such a manner that he can get loose only by breaking the flesh. Then he dances around the pole for a day or two until he faints from exhaustion or manages to tear himself free from the tongs. The In- dian forgets to consider it as a dance of thanksgiving and uses it more as an op- portunity to display his fortitude before the assembled tribesmen. Page One Hundred Eighteen
