Native Americans
SPIRITUALITY
Harmony, not personal salvation
- They have fought to reclaim their religious heritage and to guard it from distortion by the dominant white culture of North America.
- Animals, places, even stones and trees can possess spirits that interact with humans in a kind of cosmic harmony.
- Indigenous peoples look on the cosmos as a living womb that nurtures their lives, and so they have less need to destroy or reshape it as more technologically developed cultures do.
Religion
- Native American religions were very different but most tribes shared certain religious ideas.
- They saw nature as filled with spirits.
- Supernatural power filled all natural objects, from living creatures to things like thunder, mountains, rivers and rocks.
