“When the Iroqouis needed to make a decision they thought of the implications of the seventh generation to come after them. Today we must think… of peoples all over the world, rich or poor, industrialized or indigenous.”

From Certainty to Uncertainty (2002)

“In modern physics the essential stuff of the universe… exists as relationships and fluctuations… Indigenous science teaches that all that exists is an expression of relationships, alliances, and balances between what… we call energies, powers, or spirits.”

F. David Peat

The Blackfoot Physics (2006)

“Art and music make manifest, by bringing into conscious awareness, that which has previously been felt only tentatively and internally. Art, in its widest sense, is a form of play that lies at the origin of all making, of language, and of the mind's awareness of its place within the world. Art, in all its forms, makes manifest the spiritual dimension of the cosmos, and expresses our relationship to the natural world. This may have been the cause of that natural light which first illuminated the preconscious minds of early hominids.”
