Day 10

Cultural Water Connections

Water can be perceived differently depending on your cultural context. For example, some religions require ablutions (cleansings with water) or other rituals related with water bodies. As people move around the world, they bring elements of their cultures with them, and people who have historical ties with their land also learn the ways of water and how to strengthen their reverence for this vital fluid.

Do you know of any specific cultural water connections from your background or that you are aware of? What about other cultures in the place you live? How does culture affect your connections with water?

Día 10

Conexiones culturales del agua

El agua se puede percibir de manera diferente según el contexto cultural. Por ejemplo, algunas religiones exigen abluciones (limpiezas con agua) u otros rituales relacionados con los cuerpos de agua. A medida que las personas se desplazan por el mundo, traen consigo elementos de sus culturas, y las personas que tienen vínculos históricos con su tierra también aprenden los caminos del agua y cómo fortalecer su reverencia por este fluido vital.

¿Conoces alguna conexión cultural específica con el agua en tu entorno o que habías aprendido? ¿Qué pasa con otras culturas en el lugar donde vives? ¿Cómo afecta la cultura a tus conexiones con el agua?
