Respect and Spirituality


Gerald Sitting Eagle
of the Siksika Nation near Calgary, Canada,
said Blackfoot spirituality
could be summed up in one word;
respect.

Respect for one's elders,
respect for all two leggeds,
respect for the four leggeds,
the winged,
and the swimming people.

Respect for Mother Earth and
All Our Relations.
