Answer 2

A Legend of the Great Flood
In the dream-time, a terrible drought swept across the land. The leaves of the trees turned brown and fell from the branches, the flowers drooped their heads and died, and the green grass withered as though the spirit from the barren mountain had breathed upon it with a breath of fire. When the hot wind blew, the
dead reeds rattled in the river bed, and the burning sands shimmered like a silver lagoon.
All the water had left the rippling creeks, and deep, still water holes. In the clear blue sky the sun was a mass of molten gold; the clouds no longer drifted across the hills, and the only darkness that fell across the land was the shadow of night and death.
After many had died of thirst, all the animals in the land met together in a great council to discover the cause of the drought. They travelled many miles. Some came from the bush, and others from the distant mountains.The sea-birds left their homes in the cliffs where the white surf thundered, and flew without resting many days and nights. When they all arrived at the chosen
meeting place in Central Australia, they discovered that a frog of enormous size had swallowed all the water in the land, and thus caused the drought. After much serious discussion, it was decided that the only way to obtain the water again was to make the frog laugh. The question now arose as to which animal should
begin the performance, and, after a heated argument, the pride of place was given to the Kookaburra.
The animals then formed themselves into a huge circle with the frog in the centre. Red kangaroos, grey wallaroos, rock and swamp wallabies, kangaroo rats, bandicoots, native bears and ring-tailed possums all sat together. The emu and the native companion forgot their quarrel and the bell bird his chimes. Even a butcher bird looked pleasantly at a brown snake, and the porcupine forgot to bristle. A truce had been called in the war of the bush.

Answer 3

Today a large majority of Aboriginal people no longer know
their core belief because they had done to them something
similar to what the US did to the African Americans...thus
forced to live under government restriction they no longer practice their lifestyle which was refered to as Original People or Real People belief..Basicly it is that "ALL is Oneness... all is interconnected and interacts as one." What one does effects
all of everything in existance. It is this principal they learned during the dreamtime - the dreamtime was only part of the Oneness Belief, it is/was not a core belief.
The dreamtime visits from Spirit is where they learned of the
reality of all things being Oneness....Today this is a metaphysical phylosophy as it was also stated in the Holy Books/Bible..They were a very Spiritual culture that used the
gifts of telepathy and energy healing in their daily life.
A wonderful book to read is by Marlo Morgan = Mutant Message Down Under. She an American took a four month walkabout in the outback with a small group that livied as the last Real People, and
actually lived running from the Australian government census .. This is a read no one should miss due to the Enlightenment it offers.

Answer 4

The believes of the Aborigines spirituality rests in Dreamtime stories. They believe that spirits created everything, land stars, moon, mountains, sun, sea, oceans, water holes, animal and human.
Some groups believe the spirits came in a great human form, others thought they were animals, huge snakes.
According to aboriginal customs individuals draw on the power of the Dreamtime spirits to reenact various stories and practising certain ceremonies.
Hope this helps
