Sounds of Silence - Australian Aboriginal Affairs

No comments as yet to enrich this blog.  That's ok.

On the spiritual theme I had the good fortune in the 1980s to visit what was then called the Olgas, now called Kata Tjuta.  It was like standing in a giant cathedral and circling overhead was a large eagle, almost as if it was the spirit guardian of that sacred place.  I'll never forget that moment as the land whispered to me.

I have travelled all over the Kimberley, the Pilbara, the Goldfields and the South West of WA.  There are so many wonderful spiritual places like the desert, especially at night with the pitch black contrasted against which are the stars of the rich southern hemisphere skies.  It's shivering cold, even in summer, but the blazing sun of the day makes another contrast.  It would be great to see comments on this blog site giving more detail about the significance to indigenous Aussies of various places across Australia.
