Note: Indigenous Religions
Indigenous religions are vast in number and vary greatly in different regions of the world. Animism, Pantheism, and Shamanism are just three examples of indigenous religions. These religions place great importance on ancestors and oral tradition. They look more to leadership within the religious community to provide guidance, rather than religious texts like many Western Religions. For this assessment, you will consider what you have explored in this Competency related to rituals, connections between the material and spiritual worlds, and the importance of oral traditions.
