166: Maui Fires&True Freedom: Re-indigenizing Humanity - a podcast by Weekly discussions with incredible influencers such as Dr. Stuart Fishbein,

from 2023-10-16T04:00

:: ::

Right now we are being called to embrace our ancestral roots and shape a collective identity that respects the past, embodies indigenous hospitality, and kindles the light of cultural awakening, all with a steadfast commitment to nurturing a world fit for our future generations. As we build a stronger community rooted in the ancient wisdom of indigenous cultures, we emerge as stewards of the Earth, embracing uncertainty, and fostering a world in which our ancestors would be proud to see their legacy carried forward.

This week, we hosted Kale Ka’alekahi, a cultural innovator, spiritual activist, visionary, and storyteller. From his roots in Hawaii, Kale possesses the ability to bridge ancestral wisdom with modern challenges, fostering a profound connection to the environment and the human spirit. You won’t want to miss this electrifying episode that offers a unique perspective of what it means to be human.

 

Quotes:

"We live in a society that does not offer our young ones rites of passage and initiations into adulthood. And we also do not offer them guidance." – Kale Ka’alekahi

"We have history, that's why genealogy is important. We already know what has happened, and we're facing our future." – Kale Ka’alekahi

"People who came from people is the extent of generation. It's dimensional, spiraling, not just a circle. It's informed as human beings by the animal or the plant, and then they shape to it." – Kale Ka’alekahi

"Let's not disrupt what nature already wants to do. That's inherently part of why we exist. Rather than continuously taking from that, we want to give back into it so that the loop closes, that feedback loop closes." – Kale Ka’alekahi

"Water is the earth, water is human, water is nature, and it's not municipal." - Dr. Stanton Hom

 

Key Takeaways:

  • Understanding and honoring your ancestral heritage is crucial for building a better future. Connect with your roots, as they provide the foundation for who you are and what you can become.

  • Traditional wisdom and practices are not outdated. They offer timeless lessons that can be integrated into modern life. Embrace the old ways and make them relevant to the present.

  • Embrace the idea of regeneration, revitalization, and indigenization. These concepts can help you restore and rejuvenate your connection to your heritage and the world around you.

  • Recognize the need for regeneration and composting old ideas of permanence. Understand that there is a cultural awakening taking place, and it requires a collective willingness to evolve and change.

  • Reflect on the consequences of human actions on the environment. Recognize that mismanagement of natural resources can lead to severe and long-lasting impacts on both the land and the people.

  • Act as a bridge between the past and present, bringing forward the wisdom and traditions of ancestors and applying them to create a vision for the future. It's about evolving without losing touch with your roots.
