Meer over het boek
In the vast silence of their isolation, the Australian Aborigines have learned the ways of living in harmony with the earth. From their origins in a distant antiquity, they have kept a sacred perspective on the natural world. This book explains: . The world of Sky Heroes, and how the land was formed by mythic creatures from the Dreaming. . Their secret rites and rituals, and ideas of reincarnation. . How the stories, fables and myths sustain the belief in metaphysical basis of the human spirit. . How they represent the conscience of all mankind, offering us today a parable for survival.
