Interested in indigenous beliefs

Hi, I'm interested in beliefs of people like the Aboriginals, Kogi of Columbia, and Native Americans (those are the only ones I've been learning about, I'm sure there's lots more). Is there a forum here for that?

I like that they make offerings to the earth, believe that it is a person that feels, believe that there are sacred places in nature that are mothers to animals and plants.

You aren't likely to find them on-line. Some can't afford the computer, others feel that religion is private. But all Paganism is much the same in its attitude to the Earth. The Greeks worshiped the Nymphs and the Germans made offerings to the Land Wights.

Native Americans have written books, though. Two that are on my list of things to read are
Anishinaabe mino-bimaadiziwin: way of a good life
Meditations with the Hopi, by Boissiere
The first is actually by Ojibwa; the second is by a man who lived in a pueblo and got the locals to read his MS before he published.

The Forum listed above this one, is for Native Americans. I am Navajo Indian and I have a computer, and can post online. I put a link below for a CD set about the Lakota, that I highly recommend. Also I recommend the book "Seven Arrows" by H Storm.

Thanks so much! I will check those out! I really love indigenous beliefs, I think they have much to offer and can show us much that is missing today.
