Seven Paths; Changing One's Way of Walking in the World

This poetic, evocative book offers the meditations of an Anasazi tribesman at odds with his father and community. As he walks through the desert, he discovers the seven paths of the Anasazi way-each one based on a naturally occurring element in nature-that show him the roots of his conflict and the path towards reconciliation.Native American traditions consistently focused on nature's own wisdom as superior to that of man since nature has witnessed all aspects of human growth and setbacks. The idea presented here is that for maladies of both body and spirit, the ancient Anasazi pointed man towards seven paths found upon Mother Earth-seven elements among nature that combine to heal human hearts.
