![A fine art print by Trent Tate showing a dancing Native American Heyoka. He is wearing pants and has feathers in his hair. His arms are outstretched, and his upper body and head are stretched curving backwards as though he is about to do a back flip. He holds a top hat in his left hand.](https://static.wixstatic.com/media/7cac0f_6651a5ccd5e24dafbdf4fff80d482e35~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_1450,h_1990,q_90/7cac0f_6651a5ccd5e24dafbdf4fff80d482e35~mv2.png)
The Heyoka
silver print
But in the heyoka ceremony,
Everything is backwards,
And it is planned that the people shall be made to feel jolly and happy first,
So that it may be easier for the power to come to them.
You may have noticed that the truth comes into this world with two faces.
One is sad with suffering, and the other laughs;
But it is the same face, laughing or weeping.
