Las palabras de este libro se basan en la Ofrenda de Gracias, un antiguo mensaje de paz y agradecimiento a la Madre Tierra y a todos sus habitantes. Estas palabras de gracias nos llegan a través del pueblo nativo conocido con el nombre de Haudenosaunee, o también con el de Iroqueses o Seis Naciones: Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, Onondaga, Seneca y Tuscarora. Los pueblos de estas Seis Naciones son del norte del estado de Nueva York y de Canadá. Estas palabras de agradecimiento siguen siendo hoy pronunciadas en las reuniones ceremoniales o gubernamnentales de las Seis Naciones.

También a los niños se les enseña a saludar al mundo todas las mañanas, dando gracias a todos los seres vivientes. Así aprenden que, de acuerdo con la tradición de los nativos americanos, todos somos parte de una gran familia. Nuestra diversidad, al igual que todas las maravillas de la Naturaleza, constituye un verdadero don por el que nos sentimos agradecidos.

Work Description

The words in this book are based on the Thanksgiving, an ancient message of peace and gratitude to Mother Earth and all her inhabitants. These words of thanks come to us through the native people known as Haudenosaunee, or also as the Iroquois or Six Nations: Mohawk, Oneida, Cayuga, Onondaga, Seneca and Tuscarora. The peoples of these Six Nations are from upstate New York and Canada. These words of appreciation are still spoken today at the ceremonial or governmental meetings of the Six Nations.

Excerpts

To be a human being is an honor, and we offer thanksgiving for all the gifts of life.
