Indigenous spirituality refers to the diverse beliefs and practices of Indigenous peoples around the world. It often emphasizes a deep connection to the land, nature, and ancestors. Many Indigenous cultures view the natural world as sacred and believe in the presence of spiritual beings in all elements of life, including animals, plants, and water. Rituals, ceremonies, and storytelling are essential components of Indigenous spirituality, serving to pass down knowledge and maintain cultural identity. Practices can vary widely among different groups, such as the Navajo, Aboriginal Australians, and Maori, each with unique traditions and spiritual teachings that reflect their specific environments and histories.
