Cajete研究了土著天文学、宇宙学、心理学、农业和治疗艺术的多层次意义。与西方的科学方法不同,本土思维并不孤立地理解一个对象或现象,而是从关系的角度来感知它。了解自然力量和各种生命形式之间的联系,对于土著人民能够在精神和物质上与土地和谐相处数千年至关重要。很明显,第一民族提供的观点可以帮助我们在全球环境危机的时候找到解决方案。
Cajete examines the multiple levels of meaning that inform Native astronomy, cosmology, psychology, agriculture, and the healing arts. Unlike the western scientific method, native thinking does not isolate an object or phenomenon in order to understand it, but perceives it in terms of relationship. An understanding of the relationships that bind together natural forces and all forms of life has been fundamental to the ability of indigenous peoples to live for millennia in spiritual and physical harmony with the land. It is clear that the first peoples offer perspectives that can help us work toward solutions at this time of global environmental crisis.
