The Reverence Code: The Indigenous Path to Take Us From Domination to Cooperation

Conversation with Activist and Wisdom-Keeper Shawna Bluestar NewcombShow more

“Life calls on us to move from survival of the fittest to thrival of the fittingest.”
-- Swami Beyondananda

Are you familiar with the “Doctrine of Discovery”? Probably not. It sounds innocuous, but was the Papal bull that legitimized the conquest of the new world and the genocide of its inhabitants. Believe it or not, this 15th century decree is still recognized as legal precedent by our own U.S. Supreme Court! We know this thanks to Native American legal and Latin scholar Steven Newcomb.

In looking to take us from a toxic past to a healthy future, his daughter, Shawna Bluestar Newcomb, has developed what she calls “the Reverence Code”, to bring our society into harmony with the web of life, and the web of love. The Reverence Code, she explains, isn’t so much a learning process as an “unlearning process” where so many ideas we took for “reality” must be re-examined, lest our species be woven out of the web of life.

If you’ve been feeling frustrated …confused … hopeless, about our so-called “civilization”, please join us for this heartening and enlightening conversation.
