Abstract

While contemporary society is established on a foundation of humanmade institutions and structures, Indigenous cultures recognize the interconnectedness of nature and humankind, and that we cannot live and survive outside of nature. Creation is conceived as a living process wherein all inhabitants are members of a living universe. Most Indigenous traditions and belief systems regard nature with deep respect. They have a strong sense of place and belonging which sustains knowledge and ways of life that promote nature conservation and sustainable natural resource use. Common Indigenous cultures and their respective spiritual beliefs and practices will be explored within the context of the role of sustainability in individual and collective success. The absence of a spiritual-secular binary in Indigenous cultures will add an important perspective to the discussion about sustainability.
