Do Native Americans (Navajo) Worship Mother Earth?

- In this week's video Navajo Historian, Wally Brown, teaches about a commonly misunderstanding.
While our traditional teachings say to give thanks for Mother Earth, the Rain, the Atmosphere, and the Sun...
We do not pray to or worship these.
Part of the condition of keeping the language was that we would speak on behalf of these to the Holy People.
The name for the creator that is worshiped is not a name but rather a description.
This is what causes some of the issues and misunderstanding.
Enjoy the video.

As a Lakota I believe everything has a soul, everything needs to be taken care of. And everything, animals, plants, habitats and nature needs to be protected. Seeing deforestation in the Amazon Rainforest and seeing litter in the river. Breaks my heart. Did you know people just dump their trash into the river without consequences? The planet needs our love. She is our mother.
❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
So very true so many have become passive, about the effects this is having.
Well said but unfortunately there is no global concern about our planet due to human arrogance

100% agree
Id love to just spend an evening with this gentleman and listen to his stories. Just so full of wisdom
agreed, it would be such an experience
You can go to the rez and hear them speak. I believe they used to accept questions from people. Or at least last time I lived in az they did.
Just do not ask about skinwalker or witches. That will shut down any and all speaking. Bad news.
Me too☺️
It would take more than an evening.
Ive said before "yes, the earth is my mother, but my mother is not my God", that seemed to make sense to folk
"You cannot have life from a thing that is not alive" don't know why but these words stuck with me and ring very true. Thank you for all that you do
Had this precise thought. Respects. Reminds me im alive.
Reverse racism, not thinking at all spouting gibberish like a child. Self evident nothing would exist without basic none living inorganic elements. Oxygen Water photons aren’t living, man’s a fool!
Exactly, just like everything did not come from nothing. The creation has a Creator.
@@rachelgreer5263 i wonder if the creator wonders if He was created as fractal law would suggest.
I had the same reaction.
Worship the creator not the creation but let the creator know your love for the creation.
Amen!
Well said.
I took my kids camping in the Utah west desert where we camped in a wind storm, then a blizzard came in the night. Then the clouds cleared and there were stars and drone swarms, and coyotes howling. It was magical for me and my kids.
A wonderful explanation. Thank you Grandfather Wally. Blessings upon you and all the Diné. Some folk get all upset when they hear the title God slandered. And rightfully so. But God is a title, not the name of the Supreme Deity. I have long believed that our spirit is manifest as our breath. When we pass from this life, we exhale, and our spirit leaves us, and returns to the Creator who gives it to us. And certainly, we cannot exist without our Mother Earth. Just as we should honor the woman who gave us birth, we should honor the Earth from whom all life springs. At least, this is my understanding, as limited as it is.
Well said ! You have great wisdom in your words .

To give thanks for the Earth and on behalf of the Earth - I am an Eastern Orthodox Christian and this is my understanding of my own tradition as well. The same Creator speaks to everyone.
Jesus is devils son tricking u all worshiping a man shame...
I have begun to thank the sun in the morning and it has made a HUGE difference in how I take in the rest of my day
I'm 21 native american and I was taught alot about hozho, lately I been so depressed and stressed but hearing the teachings that this life ain't the end and we travel to another world full of peace and no worries, so now my thoughts are at ease
Sooner or later, We all will receive the recompense of our thoughts and actions from The Most High. Otherwise there is no justice. Just look around you at the mess people have made by each going their own selfish and egotistical way. This is not without consequences. These will fall especially hard on those who remain fixated in their own blindness. Wake up and turn back in repentance to God, the Creator and Sustainer of all.
Ahahehee from Denver. Grew up in 7th day Adventist boarding school. Lost my language. This really brings me back.
I am not, Naviho yet Choctaw, w/no dad to relay wonderful wisdom of mine elders. Yes, we all belong to the creator, all are precious to his sight. Yet, doubt and self hatred keeps us unworthily... Thanks, for helping an old fool...
Your words bring peace to my heart. Thank you. 💕
I love learning from Native Americans. They are awesome
This is so beautiful. What a great teacher. I am grateful for the education. Thank you for sharing 🐝

Thank you. We need to remember. All of us. All creatures, great and small. Water is the life's blood of mother earth. We breathe with her. All the things of the earth.
i have cried so many times for what I have seen happening. I have been trying to help every bird, frog, even mosquitoes. I feed as many as i can.
There are no more clouds of gnats, there are no more flocks of songbirds on the wires. I am broken. But many animals come here, All are welcome.
Thank-You Mr.Brown for your teachings.

Thank you Uncle...
"The One who (blank)" seems similar to the idea of "The Dao that cannot be named is not the eternal Dao"
Nice try at Taoism..but you have confused your self by being too profound..boyo.✨🎶🌼💐🌸🥗🎶✨

Thank you for taking the time to speak.
Beautiful delivery of insight into wisdom that an elder has carried a long way.
I'm grateful that you share the wisdoms that you sought to receive from your elders.
I can't imagine each of the times that the generations passed these insights on in wisdom to the youth receptive to their elders, but I have faith that it has been a wonderful thing every time..
Thank you again for sharing, you're an inspiring grandfather I'm sure, and that is inspiring
Thank you for clarifying that! I've always wondered about this. 👍👍
Thank you for sharing Uncle Wally. Your wisdom is cherished beyond words 💫

Beautiful teaching
Thank you. There is much that I would like to say about this. But I must keep my word.
Thank you🥰
Water nourishes earth. Earth nourishes the plants and animals. Plants and animals nourish human beings. Everything on earth, is nourishment, whether bodily or mentally. Dirt, mud, ash etc. is nourishing. The state of the water, earth and air, determines the state of us. Earth is like a mother.
Thank you sir.
Thank u🌺💫👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing these teachings . I too am grateful to the Great one who gives life in abundance.

Also. I wondered if all the creatures we have killed for convenience are walking here now on two legs. Can humans have come here from animal form? That is why they can't understand? Is it our fate to watch what we have reaped?
In truth, my tears are for the earth, the waters the trees everything that people selfishly destroyed. I know my part. I wish I didn't. Some times the pain is overwhelming. I have cried for 60 years. Why was I a witness? Got no clue. I reach out with my hand and my heart. We refuse to learn. We lie. We believe we can take life as if it was our right. We poison the land and air and the water. The woods here feel weak. they struggle to live. They want to live. I cry because i can't help them. My mouth can't speak now. I think I am supposed to watch and accept. I am caught and I can not look away. It's scary, but I will do it until told otherwise. I am ready, now.
Thank you so much.
Thank You , , ,

I absolutely love the last statement
Gratitude and Blessings 🍃💧☀️🌬🙏🕊😊🌟🦅🐺
We worship our Ancestors, i personally brought the Buffallo Medicine, when i went on a Spiritual walk for healing, i wandered onto the Cabazon Reservation in California, and i walked with the Buffallo, My ancestors must have protected me, i was tired of life and i did not care if the Bufallo ran me over, i learned that day to overcome my fears.
Humbly i thank you❤!!~*
Thank you
I was raised in a family of religions, yet somehow these teachings are instilled in me , these are the attributes that live in me and I exhibit as my innermost feelings as to how I should go about life. I've never read of nor been taught this way of life but it's so deep in me. I truly appreciate the sharing of this, it helps me understand that my feelings are not so far fetched and that the black sheep is not a sheep at all but a warrior 💜🙏🏼💜
I believe that your religion is the accurate true one! I allways look forward to listening to you, and what you have to tell us! thank you!!!💯💥💫
