http://members.aol.com/porchthree/nativeam.htm - Native Americans Interfaith Religion and Beliefs for an Internet Generation PORCH NUS The E-Zine of The Front Porch Religions of the World Native American Spirituality Native American Spirituality might be defined as the indigenous religious traditions of the many peoples who inhabited the Americas prior to contact with Europeans from 1492 onward. The customs, rituals and iconography varied tremendously throughout the Americas. Attempting to compare them with the formalized written traditions of Asia, Europe and the Middle East is an exercise in futility. Native American Spirituality was (and is, for those still practicing it) part and parcel of living. It involved a relationship with the natural world as opposed to a weekly or daily schedule of worship services. With few exceptions there was no priesthood or system of temples. Above all, there was no written record and, but for a very few cases, no inscriptions or monuments. Foreword to Soul of the Indian © 1911 by Charles Alexander Eastman Full Electronic Text at University of Virginia "WE also have a religion which was given to our forefathers, and has been handed down to us their children. It teaches us to be thankful, to be united, and to love one another! We never quarrel about religion."

Families of Religions Native American Religions Native American Religions are many. Because of the local focus of these traditions, each brings the unique experience and knowledge of that group of people. The nomadic practices of many of groups means no buildings and few artifacts can be used to study the past. This page will include only information that is deemed to be public knowledge. We honor the traditions and respect the wishes of spiritual elders. Many Native people count themselves as Christian and observe traditional Christian sacred times.

Contemporary Trends A Prayer Native Americans used gestures and words to communicate in prayer with the spiritual sources of life. Prayers were offered for a wide range of needs, including health, agricultural bounty, and success in the hunt. Prayers could take a variety of forms: songs and dances, as well as such acts as the sprinkling of corn meal, could function as prayers. Verbal prayers included expressions of thanksgiving, requests or pleas, and coercive formulas. There were cultural variations as well. For example, whereas Iroquois prayers emphasized an attitude of thanksgiving toward all things, Navajo prayers were calculated to exorcise evil and to erect a barrier of blessings against harm.

Teaching Native American Religions The following is a series of discussions concerning the teaching of Indian religions outside of their own cultural context. Ron Grimes has also published an article on this topic in The American Indian Quarterly , Volume 20, Number 3 (1996), pages 433-450. The title of the article is: This May Be a Feud, But It Is Not a War: An Electronic, Interdisciplinary Dialogue on Teaching Native Religions From: Ron Grimes, U Colorado Boulder (at the time) MX%"nn.chat@gnosys.svle.ma.us" 6-MAY-1993 18:51:48.40 Subj: Teach. Nat. Am. Rel. I am submitting this query simultaneously to two electronic discussion groupsone on religious studies, the other on Native American issuesto invite reflection on three questions: 1. Should or should not European Americans be teaching courses on Native American religions? 2. If we should not, why not, and what would be the results of our deferral? 3. If we should, how best can we proceed? I am giving much thought these days to the question of cultural imperialism, especially in two of its forms, namely, religious and academic imperialism. While on leave, I have been asked by the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder, to teach a very large, publicly visible introductory course on Native American religions. Vine Deloria teaches here. So does Sam Gill. So does Ward Churchill. So does Deward Walker. Even without David Carrasco, soon on his way to Princeton, this is an sizeable concentration of authorities, of various sorts, on indigenous cultures, politics, law, and religions. Ordinarily, I teach courses on indigenous religions at Wilfrid Laurier, a small Canadian university where I can do what I do in relative obscurity, that is, at considerable remove from indigenous populations of the American Southwest, where I do most of my field work, and at a considerable remove from high-profile scholars whose names are regularly associated with Native American studies.

Documents menu File: RELIGION TEACH Last update: 29 January 1995 Author: Ronald L. Grimes (rgrimes@mach1.wlu.ca) Teaching Native American Religions By Ronald L. Grimes, [29 January 1995] I am submitting this query to invite reflection on three questions: Should or should not European Americans be teaching courses on Native American religions? If we should not, why not, and what would be the results of our deferral? If we should, how best can we proceed? I am giving much thought these days to the question of cultural imperialism, especially its religious and academic forms. While on leave, I have been asked by the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder, to teach a very large, publicly visible introductory course on Native American religions. Vine Deloria teaches here. So does Sam Gill. So does Ward Churchill. So does Deward Walker. Until recently, so did David Carrasco. This is an sizeable concentration of authorities, of various sorts, on indigenous cultures, politics, law, and religions. Ordinarily, I teach courses on indigenous religions at Wilfrid Laurier, a small Canadian university where I do what I do in relative obscurity, at considerable distance from indigenous populations of the American Southwest, where I do most of my fieldwork, and at a remove from high-profile scholars whose names are regularly associated with Native American studies. Currently, this campus is the locus of a highly charged stand-off that no one talks much Sabout in public. In part, the issue has to do with academic, religious, and cultural turf. Often it does not have to do with who is right or wrong on a given issue, but with who ought to be speaking about such issues. Anyone who has read Churchill's critique (in Fantasies of the Master Race) of Gill's Mother Earth or heard Deloria's public but unpublished reflections on that book knows there are good reasons for Euroamerican scholars not to rush in, fools, where angels fear to tread.

Home A reaction to the first chapter of Sam D. Gill's Native American Religions, An Introduction The discussion of the seven golden cities effectively illustrates the consequences of clashing world views. These Zuni villages were gold in appearance, and their value to the inhabitants was exclusively and profoundly spiritual. Of course, the Spanish expedition had a very different set of values upon learning of the existence of cities of gold, and could only be satisfied with finding vast quantities of the precious metal. This event extends upon a concept Gill discusses in the prologue for his book, that cultural influences limit an individual's scope of perception of any new stimulus. I have written of my frustrations with this inescapable fact previously, specifically on how it stands as an insurmountable barrier in any person's quest for truth. Of course, what defines the cardinal directions takes us to the realm of astronomy. Most everything is based on the movement of the sun. The founding direction, the brake in the circle and the related entrance to the circular buildings, all point to the sunrise in the east. The sun rising is associated with beginnings as the sunset is with endings. Apparently their calendars were also divided into the 12 sections according to the lunar cycles and determined by the solstices, much like what happened independently elsewhere in the world.
