The Seven Sacred Teachings, also known as the Teachings of the Seven Grandfathers, are guiding principles on how we should treat and interact with others. They encompass morals that we can aspire to live by. The Seven Sacred Teachings are practiced by many, but not all, Indigenous communities. Although the teachings may vary amongst Nations and within urbanized communities much of the same meanings exist across cultures. 

This bundle includes Indigenous and non-Indigenous resources that address each of the seven teachings (love, wisdom, respect, bravery/courage, honesty, humility, and truth).
