Let us explore the culture of Canada’s First Nations, the guardians of nature.
In this session, Grandmaster JinBodhi introduces the symbolism of indigenous totems, such as eagles, frogs, and salmon. Each of them has a different meaning, representing protection from the gods, and most importantly, reflect reverence for Heaven, Earth and nature. The Medicine Women totem in First Nations culture has an intriguing story and reflects the strong beliefs of indigenous peoples towards their own medicinal culture – listen to Grandmaster discuss how these traditions intersect with traditional Chinese and Buddhist beliefs!
In addition, we discover the benefits of the turquoise gemstone. In Indigenous clans, turquoise is frequently used to decorate clothing and symbolize life’s beauty. And be sure to listen to the end to catch Grandmaster playing a handcrafted First Nations thunderbird drum.
