- Vision Quests - Traditionally,
indigenous people would not make any significant environmental
changes until they had carefully considered how it would affect
the ecology of their descendants seven generations down the
line. This is because indigenous people have direct contact
with the responsibilities given to their ancestors and also
have direct contact with their own responsibilities to the
generations yet unborn. They feel all generations are connected
and believe we must think of the effects of decisions made
today on the Seventh Generation.
