Who or what do we revere? Do we believe that reverence is earned? Do we believe we are born into it? Do we believe it is hierarchical? Reverence is owed to all living beings, including Mother Earth. We are all intertwined. Rending a part of the life thread rends the whole garment. If we want to be healed we must pay reverence to everyone, the living and the dead and all other life forms including sentient beings and Mother Earth. The wrath of Mother Earth can only be appeased by our atonement.
