Great Laws of Nature: Rediscovering Health
The United Nations has declared 2012 the “Year of the Co-operative”
to celebrate and encourage the successful work being done
across the globe by co-operatives of all kinds.
One very inspiring story of co-operation comes from the heart of Canada via a video which explores the work being done through a Co-operative in Saskatchewan by a group of First Nations People who are reconnecting with Nature, learning and observing her natural laws, and getting back on the road to self-reliance.
Out of Nothing, the Creator made Rock, Water, Fire and Wind.
From these four substances He created the physical world of the Sun ..Stars, moon and earth. Then He made the plant species.
“What we have to do is we have to study Nature. Nature is the greatest teacher if you take time, and listen.”
William Ermine, Saskatchewan Elder explains: “Nature lives in harmony with itself, each looks out for the other, each protects the other. There is no warring, there is no gossip, there is nothing. They live in harmony side by side, they are not fighting over that piece of land that they grow from. That is organic, as designed by our Creator.”
To Each a Spirit of Life, Growth, Healing and Beauty
There are four kinds of plant beings – flowers, grasses, trees and vegetables. To each, the Creator gave a spirit of Life, Growth, Healing and Beauty. Each He placed where it would be most beneficial, and lend to Earth the greatest Beauty, Harmony and Order”
Daniel Musqua continues: “It’s a belief that everything has Life and everything has Spirit. We pray to these Plant Spirits. These Spirits were put here on this Earth to look after all living things. They are at work in the Universe, here.” Daniel, a First Nation Elder is also a 3rd Generation Organic Farmer.
“Everything here has a purpose in its natural state, and it’s that purpose that we have to try to emulate within that relationship with these plants. There are people believe all life is connected, you certainly hear from the mainstream society it’s good to talk to your plants, and that’s taken quite seriously by the First Nations.”
After plants, the Creator made Animal Beings, conferring on each, special powers.
Last, he made Man, the Keepers of the Earth.
