Preservation Experience

Preservation of our country means we manage the energy in our country and on our country. We know that  all created things come from Biame, the original Creation Being. Everything and everyone is directly connected, the connection has a rhythm, it is a rhythm of wellbeing.

Ngarigo people have been aware of this from the beginning. Our Lore guides us on how to live according to the rhythm of the land, the rhythm of the universe. There is a respectful relationship, there is a mutual caring and sharing with it. Our ancestors give us the knowledge, our  Elders interpret and teach it. As the rhythm changes, the Lore changes. Our job is to preserve the processes and maintain the balance. We preserve the land, the waters, the flora, the fauna, the stories and the sacred sites. We do this as a community. We need to share this knowledge with the broader community for the sake of the land and the sake of us all.
