In Indigenous cultures, revelation is generally understood not as a single, historic event captured in a sacred text, but as a continuous, relational process of receiving knowledge and guidance from the natural and spiritual worlds. This understanding is deeply tied to the land, an interconnected worldview, and oral traditions.

Key aspects of the meaning of revelation in Indigenous cultures include:

Continuous Process: Revelation is an ongoing dialogue and adjustment to the natural surroundings and the spiritual world, not a one-time, final message valid for all times and places.
Source in Creation: The primary source of sustenance, revelation, and spiritual energies is the Earth itself, along with the sun, moon, stars, water, plants, and animals. These are often considered relatives or imbued with spirit, all of which can offer teachings.
Experiential and Personal: Emphasis is placed on the truth and validity of the direct personal experience itself (e.g., visions, dreams, insights from nature), rather than solely on belief in a received doctrine. These experiences help individuals find their purpose and connect with the community and the environment.
Holistic and Integrated: Spiritual knowledge is not separate from daily life but is integrated into a holistic worldview that links the physical and metaphysical worlds, moral codes, and practical survival skills.
Transmitted Through Storytelling and Ceremony: This sacred knowledge is passed down through generations via oral traditions, storytelling, ceremonies (such as sweat lodges or pipe ceremonies), and symbolism, which serve as dynamic forms of communication and education. Elders play a crucial role as knowledge keepers and guides.
Relationship-Based: The core of receiving knowledge is about establishing and maintaining respectful, reciprocal relationships with the Creator, the land, ancestors, and all living beings. A lack of respect or reciprocity can lead to imbalance and disconnection.

In essence, revelation in Indigenous cultures is about listening, observing, and living in harmony with all of creation, constantly learning from the wisdom the world provides through spiritual and physical experiences.
