  Loss of Indigenous Eden and the Fall of Spirituality

  Blair A. Stonechild

  The author explores the Indigenous spiritual teachings of his Elders and identifies the rise of what he calls a dominant Wetiko worldview, marked by an all-consuming and destructive appetite – the opposite of Indigenous philosophy whereby all things are interrelated and in need of care and respect.
