Best Answer

Native American Indian spirituality is all based in nature. Since the People honored the earth mother and respected her gifts as well as the gifts from the Creator, they lived lives close to the earth. They believed in not taking more than was necessary and taking care of their lands. Of course, the specifics of each tribes beliefs was dependent upon their tribal affiliation.
