In the beginning,
humans lived in small groups

that collected food
by hunting and gathering,

taking only what
they needed to survive.

Today, only a few humans

still dwell
in the depths of nature

in some of the last
pristine places on Earth.

They continue
a traditional way of life

that has been practiced,
almost unchanged,

for thousands of years.

A way of life that has
stood the test of time

and allowed them
to live in harmony

with their
natural surroundings.

These may be some of
the last remaining people

to live
a traditional lifestyle

based on the wisdom passed
down through countless generations.

Many people have never
heard their voices.

Now it may be time to listen.

I've always been taught

by my parents
and grandparents,

which was the same message

they received
from their grandparents
for many generations...

that we treat the Earth
as our mother.

When we respect
the Earth mother,

then she provides for us.

And all the things
that we see along the way...

the four-legged animals...

...the ones in the ocean...

...even the hills
and the boulders.

They're our relatives.

By them learning
that we're all related,

we also learn the
responsibility to keep
our planet alive.

As a young boy,

when I stood
next to a great tree,

a big, full-grown tree,

I felt really small.

I felt that
I still had a place,

that here's this great tree,
bigger than me,

been on the Earth longer,
and I feel one with it.

The way that my ancestors
were able to maintain a unity

within the natural environment

was to see all things sacred.

Meaning there was
spirit in everything.

We always respected
our elders.

We admired them
for coming so far in life.

My grandfather
was a wonderful teacher

and a great storyteller.

It seemed as if, as he spoke,
he also healed.

And I wanted to learn that.

What my grandfather told me

is that when I speak, I will
touch the hearts of many people.

I know now what he meant.

And there is a healing
in the story.

There's power in the word.

That's how we built
the power of our communities.

That is how
we taught our children

to be great leaders,
to be great medicine people...

Through the stories.

The most basic balance

that is important
to our traditional way of life

is to have enough food to eat,
to have water to drink

and to have firewood
to keep ourselves warm.

The land provides us
with our basic needs,

so we are completely
dependent on nature.

Without these things,
we cannot survive.

Lessons can be learned
from other cultures,

but we'll also learn
from their mistakes.

If the people
continue to treat the Earth
with no respect,

our traditional way of life
will come to an end.

When we killed an animal,

the remains will be shared
between the people.

The skin will be used
for clothes,

for our blankets.

If it's a big animal,

the meat will be sun-dried
to be eaten later,

and all the meat
will be eaten up.

Sharing
is a very important thing
in our culture.

If you don't share
with other people,
they will not share with you.

Sharing is just
a natural way of life.

The most important measures
that I would teach
the children

is they must not forget
about our land
and our culture.

Ancient teachings

have been passed down through
generations of our people.

These teachings
say all life forms

are interconnected.

Everything is part of
one whole and living organism,

and each part is vital
to the survival of the whole.

I believe the Earth
is one living being.

The end of any one life form

will lead
to hardship of another.

And if there are
too many hardships,

the whole may suffer
beyond healing.

I was taught that
the most important thing

is to have a peaceful heart.

When we are content
with who we are,

we treat other life forms
with compassion and kindness.

Nature will always
contain mysteries.

We don't need
to solve them all.

We just need to be open
and let it fill us.

The energy of nature
moves through

the cycle of birth,
death and rebirth.

And it continues on and on,

moving from one form of life
to another.

Long before humans

were able to communicate
through modern means,

cultures separated
by vast oceans

were sharing
the same values.

They speak
in many languages,

yet their messages
continued to echo one another

across the globe.

I am a man
of the people of the tides.

Much of who I am
comes from the sea.

Much of our spirituality
comes from the sea.

Somehow we're called back
to that place...

where it all began.

When there's things
alive in the sea,

then the sea
becomes beautiful.

When there's animals
and creatures on the Earth,

then Mother Earth
becomes beautiful.

When life is good, then
we have time for the artists,

then we have time
to see the art.

It reminds us
of the heritage of our tribe.

I live in a place where
I could see all of nature,

and this is how I learn.

All the lessons to living
are out there.

When I go into bear country,

I do a ceremony
for the bears.

Through a ceremony,
we are thankful

and say a prayer
for being part of this Earth.

I respect other creatures,
other animals...

because we're living together.

I come from a society

where each one of us
is responsible for a ceremony

to heal Mother Earth.

It heals our family.

It heals our nation.

It heals our tribe.

People...
they already know how

they should
keep the planet clean.

This is the way
we used to live.

We're the ones that are
the endangered species.

That's what the ravens say.

That's what the eagles say.

And when you are
living in the forest

with the insects
and the animals,

you build a culture around
the presence of those things.

You always feel
something is there

warming you up

or even frightening you
or making you happy.

The forest does speak to us.

The basic value
of the traditional way of life

is a strong sense
of belonging,

of having a place.

For me, a family
includes my community,

because they are
so close to us,

and we share a life
with them every day.

People can learn a lot from
the traditional way of life.

If there is one thing,

I think it is to learn
to live humbly on the land,

to live humbly in this world.

Whether this is
the last generation

to have traditional
thoughts and beliefs,

it may well be...

That's the sad thing
about traditional knowledge

is that if
you don't take it now,
it will be gone forever.

We also want our children
to have a good future.

We also want to have this land
intact for our grandchildren.

We are nothing
without the animals,

we are nothing
without the forest.

This is what we hope
is transmitted

to the younger generation.

When I was young,
I used to climb the trees

to look for
all sorts of fruits.

I can go right to the very top
and look way out,

and I often wonder,
"What is it like?

"What are people like

on the other side
of the mountain?"

In every culture,

the elders hold
the knowledge of the past,

and the young are the future.

When we look at the world

through the eyes
of future generations,

we begin to discover
what we all have in common.

The most sacred thing
we ever had was choice.

And that's where
it all begins.
