Sacred Instructions: Indigenous Wisdom for Living Spirit-Based Change



A “profound and inspiring” collection of ancient indigenous wisdom for “anyone wanting the healing of self, society, and of our shared planet” (Peter Levine, author of Waking the Tiger: Healing Trauma).

A Penobscot Indian draws on the experiences and wisdom of the First Nations to address environmental justice, water protection, generational trauma, and more.

Drawing from ancestral knowledge, as well as her experience as an attorney and activist, Sherri Mitchell addresses some of the most crucial issues of our day—including indigenous land rights, environmental justice, and our collective human survival. Sharing the gifts she has received from the elders of her tribe, the Penobscot Nation, she asks us to look deeply into the illusions we have labeled as truth and which separate us from our higher mind and from one another.


Sacred Instructions explains how our traditional stories set the framework for our belief systems and urges us to decolonize our language and our stories. It reveals how the removal of women from our stories has impacted our thinking and disrupted the natural balance within our communities.


For all those who seek to create change, this book lays out an ancient world view and set of cultural values that provide a way of life that is balanced and humane, that can heal Mother Earth, and that will preserve our communities for future generations.

quotation from your comment : " It reveals how the removal of women from our stories has impacted our thinking and disrupted the natural balance within our communities. "

to be precise , women have to find their right place in order for the yin yang synthesis to take place in society


people think that men and women should be " equal" . this is not exactly what nature wants . because YIN and YANG are not equal in the universe.

nature wants harmony ,not equality because it does not make sense in a system to seek equality. which would mean that one thing is useless in the system ( either yin or yang)

instead, each power( yin and yang ) should seek and take its place in the system so that the system works perfectly

nature never said that yin and yang should be equal ( their duty in the system) . nature said that yin and yang shoul harmonize and seek the perfect synthésis for the system to work perfectly


so women ( yin part of society ) have to find their right place in society so the system called society works perfectly*

- - > i don't made up this things out of my mind

i have been studyin yin yang theory for years


nature does not care about human opinions like america's political correctness


nature is our master


humans are not above nature. they are not gods
