All Is BeautifulThe Navajo Creation Story In VerseBy Jabez L. Van CleefTraditional indigenous cultures in many parts of the world have displayed a profound appreciation of the relationship between human and ecosystem health, something global culture is trying to rediscover under the label of sustainability. Since the beginning of time, human beings have told the story of their own beginning, and of the origins of the four directions, the heavens, the God-People, the earth, and all its creatures. The Navajo People tell a story of great psychological power and depth. First recorded by 19th century ethnographers, the Navajo Creation story is here interpreted as an epic-length poem.
