The excerpt is an oral dialogue between two speakers: Speaker A, a primary storyteller, recounts Indigenous creation dreaming and cosmology using snake imagery, body markings, lineage names, references to Adam and Eve and Jesus/Gamuju, migration and flood narratives, and claims about land custodianship and colonization; Speaker B asks brief clarifying questions (e.g., about ceremonies and geography). The content mixes spiritual storytelling, family lineage, and accounts of people being detained by authorities prior to ceremonies, and appears to be in English with possible local dialectal elements.
Chapters
Man, spirit, Lord, and the Holy Spirit. Well, I was saying same, same as that. What do you call them? Junkeravel. Man, woman, snake. When I mark my body, I mark them like a snake cross here, go around my body, wrapped up around my body. Then I got 2 egg here, represent men and women. For I'm the snake and do wrong in the beginning, cast me in the stomach. So I called this land, came back to work for people. No matter what color, no color matter. Now I want to give every man the land back. There's only a few of us left got authority by the quote Jesus, Lord Jesus. I never understand till I got older. And now I see Marcus understand it a bit now. So they try everything to lock me up. Well, Norman Frank, why his family do Christine? So they they try get a lot of people kicked out from this town. So most of my songmen, you met me all breaded for cults that come to cover the jazz. I said to the cop, look, man, why you think all my soulmen in jail? Because the authorities used to lock them up. Yeah, that's sad. Look at me. I even tried to talk nice to them. Sad. And even the cops of last night, I've been nice, polite to them, tell them who I was. Not about me, it's about our creation, Lord Jesus. We all men. But remember, woman come out of rib, and people are scared to say that. So I tell them Woman, hey, what you talking? You come at me. I've named woman for my body. You created for my body what God created me without nobody. Come for that? Come on. So he ended up saying, Adam, that's my grandfather, Chakala, another Chakala. Two Adam. We don't talk about one Adam. This line, Kurija, he had Tamjibalan. This one, Doglan. So I go to Doglan, they had a daughter. She was Nagala. I had a Jungla, I had a Jungla Nagala, they had a son. It was Tamjibalan, my father, married to my mother. Dr. Lan been missing. I'm son-in-law. I'm grandson to old men. So I tell me old men, I got no authority over you. You are free to do what you do. Be blessed what God gave you. That's what I like when you talk truth. So I scared of that word Kamujua. People say what you call them, we call them Kamujua. Like Grandpa sing that song. It means, I will follow, follow, follow forever my Lord, my Creator, the man God made me. And he beat in my nose, deliver, show every man where the country is all the way. Cocky, or igloo. Well, all them up there sits there. That's what people own. And them people they were looking for, they were all in the jail, all the men.
Ah, so they lock them up just before ceremony?
Yes. So why didn't no one lock me up? I got big mouth.
Taoist language.
Read the Bible, it tell you the same thing. Travel north, 3 wise men wanted to ask about Jesus' name. We call him Gamuju. It's Gamuju and Jesus. No other name but Gamuju and Jesus. Gamuju mean father, father.
So there's Gumbirr and Jesus, Father Father and Jesus.
Father Father, Jesus made us. Come at the time of Adam and Eve, then they flooded, they get flooded, right? So all these people come across, man, from Africa, some of them come across Australia. So Australia make a big circle. So when they come here, some too busy running around the coastline. Claiming everything, so those coming in, they never coming in. See, coming in, coming in. When I'm coming more to find mania, I can get with a balance of life, woman and man. So I'm gonna claim the snake, the island. And I'm saying, bring the snake here to see, bring it here. But that snake. Men walk here. Come Virginia from north, come here, see grandparents, then went back north to her father. Father. All coming and all gone north. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Hmm. Yeah. Yep. So the sea come out.
So this is Australia. Sea come up to the center.
Center, no. So after that covering. So that's pretty to a lot of women coming in. We've gone round and round, nobody can find a body of men, which is me. So they're lost, they don't know where they've gone. They've gone here, conquered another people's country, where we're all supposed to travel north together. Of course, we all come in like that in the Australian, gone mad. And nobody find a body here. Main body, arm, column jungle. Hmm.
