For the Next 7
Generations is an award-winning documentary directed by
renowned filmmaker Carole
Hart and narrated by Ashley
Judd. Four years in the making and shot on locations in the
Amazon rainforest, the mountains of Mexico, North American, and at a private
meeting with the Dalai Lama in India, For
the Next 7 Generations follows what happens when these wise women
unite. Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing
and a call for change now, before it’s too late. This film documents their
unparalleled journey and timely perspectives on a timeless wisdom.
The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous
Grandmothers offers a global alliance of prayer,
education and healing for our Mother Earth, all Her inhabitants, all the
children, and for the next seven generations to come.
“We are deeply concerned with the
unprecedented destruction of our Mother Earth and the destruction of indigenous
ways of life. We believe the teachings of our ancestors will light our way
through an uncertain future.
We look to further our vision through the
realization of projects that protect our diverse cultures: lands, medicines,
language and ceremonial ways of prayer and through projects that educate and
nurture our children.”
In the
fall of 2004 we gathered from all over the world, thirteen indigenous
Grandmothers from
The
Grandmothers’ Council was set in motion by a common vision, prophecies seeded
decades ago in many people around the world. One of these seeds was planted by
members of the Center
for Sacred Studies.
