Transcript:
Gibson Gonnie, Diné (Navajo), describing the Four Sacred Mountains and Rivers of the Diné, and their meanings.

     The Rio Grande River. That’s the river to the east. What Navajos say about it or what the ancestors had said about it is they represent the bow. So I guess to the east you would look at it like the lightning bow. And to the south is the lightning bolt bow. And to the west is the lightning, and then to the north is the lightning bolt. So you actually have bows that surrounds us. 
Like I said, to the east is the Rio Grande. Then to the south is the Little Colorado River. Then to the west is the Colorado River. Then to the north is the San Juan River. So those are the rivers that we have, and they all represent as bows. 
If a Navajo, if you know the stories and if you know the tradition, if you’re going to go over the river to the other side, you have to say a prayer to get to the other side and then go about your way. So going outside the Four Sacred Mountains, that’s what we do. Because it’s unknown. Within the Four Sacred Mountain, you’re protected. If you leave the Four Sacred Mountain, you have to have something with you to travel that distance.
Once we leave the Four Sacred Mountains, we don’t know where the road will lead us to. The four mountains, we always start with the sacred mountain to the east, Mount Blanca in Alamosa. In Navajo we call it Tsisnaasjini'. Then the sacred mountain to the south is Tsoodzil, Mount Taylor at Grants. It looks bigger, because it’s kind of flattened out. That’s why it’s called Tsoodzil, Big Mountain. 
Then the sacred mountain to the west, San Francisco Peak, Mount Humphrey in Flagstaff.  In the Navajo we call it Doko'oosliid. What that means is Doko'oos, it’s like clouds that comes out of the mountain that looks like a smoke. So that’s what that means, Doko'oosliid. The sacred mountain to the north, which is in Durango, Colorado, Mount Hesperus. We call that one Dibé Nitsaa, where the mountain sheep dwells. 
Those are the Four Sacred Mountains.
