- catalog abstract ""If there were an "endangered religions list", the spiritual traditions of Native American nations would be on it. Fortunately, as Quest for Harmony makes clear, not only are Native American spiritual traditions still very much alive, they are in the midst of a dramatic revival, The four nations on which this richly descriptive and fascinating book focuses - the Lenape (Delaware), Ani-yuni-wiya (Cherokee), Lakota (Sioux), and Dine (Navajo) - bear witness to the reality of Native American culture and its spiritual continuity amidst change." "Quest for Harmony is intended for anyone seeking a basic understanding of the cultures and spiritual teachings of Native American nations. It is sympathetic and respectful, presenting the views of Native Americans in their own voice wherever possible. Critical issues common to Native Americans such as the pannational spiritual movements and the environment, are also covered."--Jacket.".
