The Indigenous Traditions

"Thanks and praise for our brothers and sisters of the Indigenous Traditions, for their reverence of nature and their ancient and still living cultures."

The religious and spiritual practices of native people have shaped the lives of the vast majority of the world's past and present inhabitants.

While these traditions offer an astonishing variety of beliefs and expressions, most share an abiding concern with the natural world and the spirits that choreograph its movements and reflect deeper significance.

The native traditions acknowledge the confluence of the invisible world with the visible and celebrate the sacredness of all life.
