The Wisdom of the Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers
October 11, 2010 - 8:00am - October 15, 2010 - 12:30pm
Omega Institute for Holistic Studies, 150 Lake Drive
Rhinebeck, NY

This is an extraordinary opportunity to experience the timeless wisdom of indigenous elders joining together in sacred space to pray for all life and for the next seven generations to come.

The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers, including women from the Alaskan Tundra ; North, South, and Central America; Africa; and Asia, represents a global alliance of prayer, education, and healing. They are women of prayer and women of action who regularly travel the globe to bear witness to the wounds of people and of the Earth to earth. And now the 13 Grandmothers are making their second visit to Omega.

This special week of traditional prayer, meditations, silence, ceremony, and council is open to all women and men of goodwill. Throughout the retreat, the 13 Grandmothers offer prayers and teachings from their own unique wisdom traditions—traditions that have served their people for hundreds of years, and are needed now more than ever—in an effort to ease war, environmental degradation, and social ills.
