Mabel Juli says, "We talk to Ngabuny (Jesus) and ask Him to send the Holy Spirit down to us. People don't listen (to the Holy Spirit) so he talks to the gungule (head) to make them good. All the people are sitting down (in the circle) waiting with Jesus (centre of the circle). The Holy Spirit (dove) is coming down to make them good in their heart and mind."
