I AM A SAVAGE AND DO NOT UNDERSTANDHow the smoking iron horse can be more importantthan the buffalo that we kill only to stay alive.

WHAT IS MAN WITHOUT THE BEASTS? If all the beasts were gone,Man would die from loneliness of the spirit.For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man.

All things are connected.

Page 3: Buddhism and Chief Seattle

TEACH YOUR CHILDREN TO RESPECT THE LANDFor the ground beneath has the ashes of our grandfathers.That the earth is our mother,And whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons of earth.

THIS WE KNOW: The earth does not belong to man; man belongs to the earth.All things are connected like the blood which unites a family.

Our God is the Same God

Page 4: Buddhism and Chief Seattle

The earth is precious to Himand to harm the earth

is to heap contempt on its creator.

Contaminate your bedand you will one night

suffocate in your own waste.

For non-human life is as divine as human life.

All Life is Oneand as animals are considered

to be traveling towards enlightenment

just as man is

they are not to be harmed,discouraged or hampered

in their progress.
