'The Harmless One'

The Harmless One

It is never the intent of Porcupine (Kagh) to inflict pain upon others. Quite to the contrary, as anyone who has ever had the good fortune to encounter Porcupine knows, he is one of the most gentle-natured creatures to dwell upon Turtle Island. However, those who disturb or attack Porcupine might find themselves stung by his self-protective quills. His essentially peaceful and quiet nature exemplifies the way we should live our own lives by walking gently on Mother Earth in a way that respects all other forms of life. Miigwetch Kagh for your lessons.

​L’INOFFENSIF
Porc-épic (Kagh) n'a jamais l'intention d'infliger de la douleur aux autres. Au contraire, tous ceux qui ont eu la chance de rencontrer Porc-épic savent qu'il est l'une des créatures les plus douces de l'île de la Tortue. Cependant, ceux qui dérangent ou attaquent Porc-épic risquent d'être piqués par ses aiguilles d'autoprotection. Sa nature essentiellement paisible et tranquille illustre la façon dont nous devrions vivre notre propre vie en marchant doucement sur la Terre-Mère, dans le respect de toutes les autres formes de vie. Miigwetch Kagh pour tes leçons.
