Ngaligumerra – We Are One is a calling for Australia’s shared vision for greater harmony moving forward. It invites us to explore the Four Sacred Pillars of Australian Indigenous Wisdom.
By sitting in sacred connection with Aunty Jinta, and guided by Dadirri (deep listening) practices in Indigenous rituals, we experience our interconnectedness to all things. Aunty Jinta’s ability to put deep Indigenous and universal wisdom in simple language that is understood by people of all cultures is the key to reconnect us to our roots with Country (Mother Earth), with each other (kinship), with our Self (spirit), and the Cosmos (universal lores). Aunty Jinta explains this ancient yet timeless wisdom succinctly in the Four Sacred Pillars.
Captured in breathtaking cinematography, the film is an immersive experience that transports the audience to the sacred connections held on Country. Ngaligumerra – We Are One, is a film that will reinstate and give new light to Indigenous Australian wisdom, and unites us all in this knowing.
On arrival we will begin with a Smoking Ceremony and Welcome to Country and then move upstairs to the Lakeview Hall to watch the 38 minute film. After the film Aunty Jinta will be with us to answer any questions in a Q&A.
Monies raised will help cover costs and donation/profit to a local First Nations women’s group, Gunyadu Aboriginal Women’s Group. Their dream is to build a Healing Space that will give First Nations communities and families living and working in the Gai-mariagal lands, a place to meet, empower and nurture our cultural and spiritual identity.
