Nature,
the Creation, is here to teach us about the Creator.
In Native American and other indigenous
philosophy and prayer, Nature has been seen as a teacher, healer,
friend, enemy and lover. Learning to observe and follow the
Natural laws and cycles of the universe, we are able to let
go of the rebellious ego and come into closer harmony with the
imminent, ever-present Divine.
The Wisdom of Nature that
the Elders carry from generations past is an art of communication
with other species an elements we often forget in our pursuit
of deeper communication with 'our own kind,' however we define
'our own'.
Wisdom comes only with
experience, but that experience can be borrowed from those who
have gone before.
