The Dreaming is very significant to Aboriginal spirituality because envelopes the most essential aspects of their society such as creation, history, ancestry, folklore, laws, rituals, ceremonies, culture and philosophy. The Dreaming is a never ending aspect of Aboriginal life which looks at the past and the present to be able to foresee the future. The Dreaming is what makes the identity of an Aboriginal person. The land to which a person belongs to is what supplies the link with the people and The Dreaming. Dreaming stories contain a lot of meaning; the truth from a story is what sets the law for the present. Some dreaming stories portray what consequences a bad doing may bring onto a person and what the future may hold for all of us. Dreaming stories give meaning to human life. To Aboriginal people The Dreaming was and is a very significant part of their life because The Dreaming has molded them into who they as individuals and a society have become. All their rules, laws, way of life and humanitarian way of been is shaped by the stories and experiences that The Dreaming has provided to the Aboriginal people.

How does aboriginal culture influence Australian Culture?

they don't. Unlike the situation between the Maury and the pakiha ( white person) in NZ I would say that aside from having seen the occasional bit of aboriginal art and a few well meaning articles in newspapers and on television 99% the Average Australians are blissfully unaware of any thing that has to do with aboriginal culture aside from a seemingly endless array of racist joke's. I agree. Having lived in Australia I can say that Aboriginal culture influences Australian culture very little. Kids in Australia are thought about Aboriginal culture throughout their schooling, which means they are somewhat well educated on the topic of Aboriginal culture. However, aside from this education, influences of Aboriginal culture can not really be seen in everyday Australian life.
