Universal Spirit - Interdependence

In the Time of the Grandfathers the perception was that the Spirit of the Universe resided in the Earth and all things of this Earth, including Human Beings. With this perception the Grandfathers remained equally open to all possibilities that might manfest itself through the Natural World.

The Cycles of Nature and Life, Human behavior, Animal behavior, Plant growth, Morals and Religious expression. In this inclisive view, Universal Spirit, Human Beings are related and interdepentent with Animals, Plants and everything that exists. Thus, it becomes in evey sense abnormal to view the World as dead matter, private property or commercial resources.

The roots of this Native Sense ran much deeper than the modern American in that all of Nature, not only Human Beings, HAVE RIGHTS. This is essential for the foundations of Native Culture AND those of modern society.

Twenty first century Society believe they have removed themselves from Nature, believing they are above it or superior to it. Yet, Universal Truths, we are not above Natures Laws.

MANKIND IS NATURE!
