The Cherokee Story of Creation - FlickerOfLight - 01-06-2025
As I have looked at the different beliefs around the world with an open heart and an open mind, and with this perspective of loving others as myself while not only researching these beliefs, but also experiencing some of them myself through their different "practices," something keeps becoming more and more clear.
They actually all align if we look at some of them through the symbolism.
In all this world view of beliefs, and from one country to another, one belief system to another, and being one who has a gift of noticing patterns and following sequences, it is abundantly clear that all of these different views of creation and even God all share similarities. So much so, that I've noticed that it's damn near the same story, just told through different cultural eyes.
This video is the entire Cherokee story of creation, as well as a lot of their beliefs about God.
The video is very relaxing and soft toned and done with a pleasant presentation, and a real persons voice; or at least i think it is (really hard to tell these days). I do believe if anyone approached this with an open mind, while disregarding all of the stereo types, all the programmed propaganda, and simply look at this as beliefs that are as sacred as your own, you will see that we all pretty much believe in the same thing. This video even shows how this shared belief(s) can be traced all the way back to the Egyptians, and their "weighing of the heart to the feather" upon death. We all believe relatively the same thing when it comes to creation, and the Truth of where we all came from, and the purpose of it all.
It's worth the 40mins. This came from a gnostic library, but this is the types of information that can expand our collective consciousness; if not only our own. Notice how many similarities there are, even if just on a symbolic level, to your own faith and beliefs.
The Cherokee have a beautiful story of how the viewed the creation of the world. I really enjoyed this, and am glad i watched.
This is just another version of the same story told across the world.
In a world full of different stories about creation its pretty amazing how much they all share in common. It sort of shows how much we all have in common.
Somehow, someway, and obviously by something higher and greater than ourselves, we have all been "created."

"It's turtles all the way down."
ETA: That is a silly joke poking fun at the Native American creation myth about Turtle Island. That myth is actually quite complicated and that cheap one-liner doesn't do it justice.
