Seeds of Sovereignty

Orenda is the Iroquois name for a supposed spiritual energy inherent in people and their environment. It's an "extraordinary invisible power believed by the Iroquois Native Americans to pervade in varying degrees in all animate and inanimate natural objects as transmissible spiritual energy capable of being exerted according to the will of its possessor. Orenda is a collective power of nature's energies through the living energy of all-natural objects, animate, and inanimate in the world we share.
