| At the dawn of the 21st century, it is essential to our survival that we all learn to listen to our indigenous relatives, to the told and untold stories of the people and the land, and to the vital connection between our spiritual well-being and the health of Mother Earth. We are at the interface of the traditional and the contemporary, between the past and the future, where freshwater rivers meet the sea... at the confluence of many different places, peoples and world views. |

| These happenings at the Presidio are indicative of the global movement for all peoples to reconnect to the essential nature of the self, to re-connect or deepen a harmonious relationship with the Earth...sparking personal questions concerning involvement and individual well-being: do I want to be a part of the larger positive changes in the world? |
