Seven Sacred Teachings

The Seven Sacred Teachings is a message of

traditional values and hope for the future.

The Teachings are universal to most First

Nation peoples. These Teachings are seen in

school communities from coast to coast across

North America. They are a link that ties all Native, Inuit and Métis communities together.

David Bouchard is Canada’s most renowned

and awarded Métis author. Dr. Joseph Martin has spent his life coming to understand the Sacred Teachings. Métis Kristy Cameron took a year out of her life to interpret the Teachings through her art. Swampfox has created seven flutes out of seven different woods, each in the key that is consistent with a particular Teaching. This master flute maker then dreamed seven songs to accompany this telling.

Look to the East. Is it not easy to see how

insignificant you are when you marvel at the

rising sun? Wolf, who epitomizes the Teaching

of Humility, howls announcing the arrival of

Grandfather Sun. Through Wolf, we learn that

the pack is more important than the individual.

The Trembling Aspen models Humility and the

song you’ll hear is in the key of C – because C

exemplifies Humility.

Rooted in humility and honesty, the creators

have tried to respect the cultures and traditions

of all peoples.

It is our hope that this telling will unite and

thus heal divisions. Prophecies tell that this is the

time for One Heart, One Mind and One Drum. We,

readers and authors alike, are the ones we have

been waiting for. There is nobody else who can

revitalize our culture and values except ourselves.

It is our hope that this telling might move

readers toward greater courage and wisdom and
ultimately toward achieving and understanding what is true in life’s journey.

Seven Sacred Teachings has been produced in several languages. This edition is in English and Ojibwe and includes a DVD featuring the art of Kristy Cameron with the text being read in six languages: English, French, Ojibwe, South Slavey, Bush Cree and Chipewyan.
