Answer:

An important part of daily life among many traditional American Indian people was-and for many still is-the maintenance of harmony and balance. Living a good life, one free from sickness and conflict, requires that one strive to maintain social and spiritual harmony and balance. In traditional Native American cultures, harmony and balance exist on four different levels: internal, social, natural, and spiritual.  

Internal Harmony and Balance:

Internal harmony and balance allows individuals to be at peace with their bodies, their thoughts, their emotions. Many religious traditions utilize various forms of meditation to achieve this.

When an individual is out of internal harmony and balance, according to traditional cultures, the individual experiences sickness. While this might be a physical illness, it might also manifest itself as a psychosis.

What are some values that are important to the people who live and work in the new nation? List three values and illustrate thei
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Three values that are important to the people who live and work in the new nation:

  1. Individual freedom
  2. Equality of opportunity
  3. Material wealth  

Explanation:

  1. Individual freedom : Freedom to the people who live and work in the New Nation means the desire and the right of all individuals to control their own destiny without outside interference from the government, a ruling noble class, the church, or any other organized authority. This desire to be free of controls was a basic value of the new nation, it is especially important to them because it teaches self reliance, they believe that they cannot be truly free if they can't be independent. They must be self reliant if they want to remain free. This means, for example, that children gain financial independence from their guardians as early as possible.
  2. Equality of opportunity: To the people of the New Nation this does not mean that everyone should be equal, to them it means that each individual should have an equal chance for success. For them, equality means that everyone should have an equal chance of winning. For example, equality of opportunity helps ensure that the race for success is a fair one and that a person does not win just because he or she was born into a wealthy family, or lose because of race or religion.
  3. Material wealth: People go to the New Nation to improve their standards of living due its abundance of natural resources. They are willing to work hard to gain material possessions, which they view as a natural reward for their hard work.  Acquiring and maintaining a large number of material possessions is important to the people living and working in the New Nation because it is widely accepted indicator of social status there. due to their stand on being free they rejected European system of nobility, and consequently have to find their own, thus material wealth is used as a measure of social status in the New Nation.
