Pantheism ... a way of viewing ourselves, our world, and our universe.

"Is not the sky a father and the earth a mother, and are not all living things with feet or wings or roots their children? And this hide upon the mouthpiece here, which should be bison hide, is for the earth, from whence we came and at whose breast we suck as babies all our lives, along with all the animals and birds and trees and grasses. And because it means all this, and more than any man can understand, the pipe is holy."
Black Elk Speaks - John G. Neihardt

Pantheism is an ancient religion that holds everything in the universe sacred. All of nature's creations are divine, interconnected and each is a god. The whole is also what we call a god, not a supernatural entity but a living, throbbing mass of gods. The whole cannot be divine if each of its counterparts are not also sacred.

Most Pantheists believe in the duality of nature: positive/negative, good/bad, yin/yang ... and aim for balance in their lives. Because there are many paths to enlightenment and unity with the divine universe, there are also many companion beliefs and practices associated with Pantheism via its followers. As in many other religions, all things are permissable but not all things are beneficial. Again, balance is the key concept by which we guide our lives.

Equally important is the need for each of us to accept total responsability for our actions and the condition of our universe. Doing the right thing when it needs to be done, defending those who cannot defend themselves, and caring for our earth as if she were sacred ... being responsible and aware, balanced and in harmony with nature, reverent of all the other gods who share our universe.
