http://www.plurk.com/Zaafir  ... explained Nondualism for us,

"
Philosophically, I'd have to agree. All things/people/ideas are dependent upon other things/people/ideas, so we can't exist independently without either upsetting a necessary balance in some arena.

Therefore, there is no duality of the absolute and the relative. They become one and the same due to the inherent nature of interconnectedness in all things both spiritual and natural.

There's an overlap, certainly, in some modern religions. If you are Wiccan, this could be one of the tenets of your belief system, as Wicca embraces the idea of essential connections between humans and nature.

The philosophy has its roots in Buddhism, but has cropped up in other belief systems since then.

Attire: Native Inspired,Animal, PG

Native American dress code: To show respect , we ask that you refrain from utilizing a traditional Native American headdress unless you are familiar with the significance and willing to take on the embodiment as a permanent lifestyle in Second Life. If you come with a headdress, be prepared for an interview with staff. Failure to comply with our standard will result in an automatic eject and or ban.

Our views on cultural appropriation:

The celebration of culture is personal. Native American culture enforces the concept of sharing.Sharing of education, love, and joy. We offer this celebration as a tribute.We believe if we've been given life,give life back, If you have been given shelter, Give thanks ... If I've been given health, Give respect. Roleplay attires, mystical,spiritual, and personal interpretations are acceptable as long as it is PG.

You are invited to make your own personal and objective opinion about what it means to celebrate Native American culture,as well to learn about a culture through experience. Use this opportunity and venue to express how you feel. The sanctuary is meant to be a refuge for peace, and the advancement of  rights.

-How you celebrate Native American Culture will very Personal-
However,here are some residents who would like to share their thoughts.

Individual Quotes/Feelings:

Tonic "Honoring each other,like all dancers dance differently and that too is celebrated.  It should be like a pow wow where distant friends are seen again and have a chance to catch up and to dance together once more"

Zaaf from Plurk "I love the way Native Americans wear their art. Like beading on moccasins, etc. some of the work is so intricate, it's a feast for the eyes."

Maya  "Disregarding sexualized stereotype of the squaw is a valid way to celebrate Native American culture"

Our mission is to spreαd αwαreness regarding the preservation of the Spanish Colonial Horse by providing Matoluta Sanctuary αs α venue for  photography, nature, roleplay, animals,and memories.



The Spanish colonial horse. Originally bred by the Spanish approximately 400 years ago, these horses are now facing extinction. They no longer live in Spain, as they were bred by the conquistadors. Later, they became the original horses of the Native Americans. In the 1700's they were the most popular horse on the continent.The sanctuary hopes to educate visitors about the importance of conserving the homeland of these beautiful horses in present day Oklahoma.

"In Oklahoma there are tornadoes twice a year during the season and approximately about 6-12 inches of rain in the first three months. Having rain in OK right now is nearly impossible but while I would say the weather was strange, it's perfectly normal for 2014" - Ursus Broono
