The following list is included on many posters and suggests its origins come from the native american culture and is often titled:
The Ten Indian Commandments
Treat the earth and all that dwell thereon with respect
Remain close to great spirit
Show great respect for your fellow beings
Work together for the benefit of all mankind
Give assistance and kindness wherever needed
Do what you know to be right
Look after the well being of mind & body
Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater good
Be truthful and honest at all times
Take full responsibility for your actions
Irrespective of who really first said them, if we connected in this way with the landscape and others on this planet of ours, then I certainly think we'll find our connection within more easily. Do join me on my Landscaping Your Life facebook page where I share more on the process that uses landscapes as metaphors for life. Although I'm starting to think that perhaps landscapes are really a mirror for our lives not simply a metaphor.
