In The House Of Long Life With Beauty |
| Description: |
|
From the series "The Beautiful Road". This series focuses on
themes found in the following Navajo wisdom teaching:
In the house of long life, there I wander
In the house of happiness, there I wander
Beauty before me, with it I wander
Beauty behind me, with it I wander
Beauty below me, with it I wander
Beauty above me, with it I wander
Beauty all around me, with it I wander
In old age traveling, with it I wander
On the beautiful trail I am, with it I wander
This work also examines the meaning of the phrase "The Good Red Road". This
is a term used by many different Native American tribal communities to
represent one who is walking the road of balance, living right and following
the rules of the creator. The red thread that follows through "The House of
Long Life" represents The Good Red Road. |
