What is the Indigenous Axiom and its Contrast?
Axiom:
what
is most meaningful and real exists in the act of participating in the oral
traditions - sacred narratives, rituals, songs, regalia
in the transitory act of participating with others - human, animal, spirit
The worldview of the Indigenous peoples of North America corresponds to the
Australian Aboriginal idea of the “Dreamtime” and to the notions of “each
(human) becomes the First Hunter,” and of the “participation in, and the
acting out, of archetypal paradigms,” along with the idea of “eternal time”
