The Diné (Navajo) have a name for the harmony and balance between nature and mankind, they call it Ho′zho′ - a balance of life, peace & harmony; dependent upon all living things living in beauty and harmony.

All that exists in the natural world are manifestations of the sacred. Each life fills a unique role in nature. It is the Diné role to live together in balance with all creation.

To be Ho′zho′ is to be at peace and balance with your environment and the world around you in such a way that the notes of your life complement and resonate with the symphony of life all around you. That is the Navajo way. Walk in beauty.

In beauty I walk
With beauty before me I walk
With beauty behind me I walk
With beauty above me I walk
With beauty around me I walk
