00:11After the creation of the world had been completed,
00:15Biomi, the Great Spirit, looked down on the world, and was greatly pleased with what he saw.
00:22However, he couldn't help but feel that something was still missing.
00:26Biomi was an entity of great intelligence, wisdom, life, light and love.
00:33But he had no body of his own, nor did he have any creature to give him an idea of
00:38how magnificent he looked.
00:41He had put a small part of his power of thought into animals, birds, reptiles, fish and insects.
00:49But there was no one who looked like him.
00:52None of the creatures had the image of the Great Spirit.
00:55The Great Spirit wanted to appear in his creations, so he created man, from the elements.
01:02He gave a part of his soul and intelligence to man.
01:06And there at last, was someone like him.
01:09Now the man walked the earth, but he was very lonely.
01:13He wanted a companion, with whom he could share the wonders of the world.
01:18He had the companionship of the animals, birds, reptiles, fish and insects.
01:25He shared with them, a love for the Great Spirit.
01:28But there was only a little of the Great Spirit's mind, in each of those creatures, and that was not
01:34enough to satisfy man.
01:37Man had the beauty, and the perfume of the trees, the grasses and the flowers.
01:42They pleased him, but they were not enough.
01:46The Great Spirit and the sunny goddess, saw his loneliness, and decided to give him a companion.
01:53One day, when man woke up.
01:55He saw the sun goddess focusing her bright light, on the stalk of the flower of the echo tree.
02:02Then, the stalk changed into a two-legged creature, like himself, but rounder, smoother, and more delicate.
02:11This creature, was woman.
02:14Thus, the loneliness of man had ended.
02:17However, his duties and obligations had just begun.
02:22Man hunted for woman, and provided her with shelter.
02:26He showed her love and tenderness.
02:28Woman in return, worked with man, and loved him.
