“People say Jesus Christ is a god, and they pray to him. Likewise, the Navajos have a god. He is an everlasting god who never dies, and we pray to him for everything. We were created from white shell in a sacred, holy way. Part of the white shell was taken and put in our bodies, but no one can see it. White Shell is a god. We pray to her “to give us the invisible white shell shoes, white shell socks, clothing, feathers,” and so on. This god is female and is out there, but we cannot see her.”
