- Bob Randall, a Yankunytjatjara elder and traditional owner of Uluru (Ayer's Rock), explains how the connectedness of every living thing to every other living thing is not just an idea but a way of living. This way includes all beings as part of a vast family and calls us to be responsible for this family and care for the land with unconditional love and responsibility.

Waffle Cone same, and that’s on geographical concepts
Me too but for English

It may suprise you that I'm doing it for PDHPE
I liked the video anyway. It teaches an important lesson and makes you understand aboriginal culture
it was for my school work too
I am doing this for schoolwork during COVID-19 Quarantine
@zeyad altamimi nice

I am currently studying aboriginal studies and I am aboriginal ❤️💛🖤 I'm in love with my culture and I appreciate videos like this 💝
Wow! If you need my services let me know.
Penis 🎉❤
Could you please recommend a great book about your people? I want to learn more about your culture, lifestyle and how you used to live before the British came. Not something academic though. Something for an idiot from Italy like me 😂 Thank you!
I went to high school with his daughter and he sang My Little Brown Baby to me while sitting in their lounge room at Holden Hill SA. I didn't hear the song again until watching Rabbit Proof Fence.
Told my partner that my friends Dad, Bob Randall sang that song to me (over 45years ago now) couldn't believe watching the credits and his name appeared. Beautiful family, talented sons.
I was fortunate to hear Bob Randall give a lengthy interview on Radio National, probably about 15 years ago. I was so moved by the story of his childhood as a stolen child. Through all the hardship and injustice he experienced he never had any anger or resentment. He spoke of the deep connection with his human family and his nature family. He seemed to have a peaceful acquiescence , a delightful sense of humour and a heart full of love. I encourage anyone to look for that interview and have a listen. May your spirit always dwell in the land that you love.
Honestly, what a beautiful way to look at the world. As someone who has a tendency to feel alone, this idea of kanyini really alters my perspective of what being 'alone' even means. If we cannot appreciate the abundance of life all around us, then we really are alone. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful part of your spirituality with us.
I'm only watching this because of school, but this is very true
ya me too
I watched this when I was in like yr 4 like 9yrs ago

I have to write summary of this video lol

I can't thank you enough for sharing brother. I was born in central Queensland and was taught that all of the animals have a job to do and to respect them...I remember the red earth and the smell of the rain coming, we played in the creeks on country...a magical childhood in many ways.
What a beautiful and gentle soul
Lazy !
Love the ancient wisdom that is spoken here. We all could do with listening to our Elders of the Earth. I believe we are all one people, but we are not all of the same age. The young may have knowledge but they do not have wisdom. We need to listen to our real Elders as a human race, to enable us to evolve and live in harmony again with the Earth, as well as each other.
What an idiotic way of thinking. If we were all one people then why do we look and act differently? Just a dumb view to get some virtue brownie points.
Wise words... truly beautiful xx
@@munafiqwill7837 because the other didn’t want to be like you....!!!
Nice statement. I liked it...!
no youre beautiful. I am always overwhelmed by the joy and wisdom of First Nations People. you can really tell its an old culture like an ancient parent waiting for the toddler to listen. I'm so glad I get to witness.
The words of wisdom from a man who truly is in touch with the purpose of his being.
absolutely wonderful Bob. thanks.
RIP Bob Randall. He represented the best of Australia and humanity
Beautiful man , the simplicity of understanding you are everything and everything is you . Once you understand , all the negative gets replaced with joy .
I am native American. And this philosophy. Is like our own. We do not own the land. Or air. Or water,,it belongs to the creatore
mother earth is here to take care of us. We are told to respect her,,,
Live in,harmony,,
What a beautiful perspective towards life !
Greetings from Canada. I am so grateful to have found Your Video. For many of Us during 2020 have had much difficulty. Thank You for this Healing TRUTH. I send Blessings of Much LOVE.
So joyful to watch this gentleman giving his opinion about what the life is about. It’s precious. Thank you for sharing ❤
After all the personal and collective heartbreak the first Australians have suffered, it is wonderful to see one of them feeling and spreading a message of such genuine joy.
What a beautiful, peaceful human being.
Beautiful words, I thank you for your wisdom, the wisdom that has been passed down from your ancestors, I can feel them speaking to me through you & it is truly beautiful.
Pauline Hanson is lost, her head speaks & her empty heart waits in silence, to me her ignorance is embarrassing. It is not necessary to conquer Uluru by climbing it why can't we just breathe in the presence of such magnificence....
Bob must have been a beautiful person and his words will live on as more people the world over come to grips with climate change and learn to listen to what our mother is trying to teach us. We will get there, maybe even faster than is the case today. We have no alternative.

What a beautiful little film. So many wise words in just six minutes. Mr. Randall gets to the root of the majority of our cultural problems so simply! Thanks for making this!
I met this old man in Alice Springs, Northern Territory. R.I.P. Bob 💖
Whats good fellow students doing school work :)

That hits hard........... especially the end.
REPEAT AFTER ME,
ONE BLOOD BUT MANY COLOURS!!!!!
I love you Uncle Bob! Kanyini Love!
We have all forgotten that without the earth we would never even exist...
*that was deep*
Same for carbon dioxide: without it no life.
YES BOB, THE MOTHER EARTH US TEACHES THE REAL LIFE AND THE MEDICINE OF THE HEART AND FROM SOUL ....
What a beautiful person. I went to Uluru too but he has already passed to spirit.
There was no one else there quite like him. Everybody else there is very traditional, which is also beautiful in a different way.
Amazing beautyfull. Thank you so much. Love it. Derp resonance. And love the music....get goosebumps.....TRUTH-bumps.❤❤❤❤😊😊😊love and blessings from Austria.
You are very welcome here!
That was so beautiful I almost cried
Such beautiful words about a beautiful land and connection to all of live
I wish more people would be like you and you are truly lucky to be able to live in your natural surroundings without fences and all this so called civilised stuff no one really needs
May your mother protect you and sustain you for a long time to come

A beautiful teacher..Thank you.
what a beautiful presence...and from that have sprung such beautiful words...and giggles...
I thought this was an amazing message when I first heard it a decade ago. It's even more sorely needed now with all of the deep divisions hurting our society.
What a beautiful soul, love your wisdom, this made me cry. Thank you for sharing.
What a beautiful Man with a gentle soul! I wish I was able to have met you. May your beautiful soul Rest In Peace in the land you so much loved!
I am grateful for you Uncle Bob 🙌🙌🙌
Great wisdom on "ownership" of land and unconditional love for mother nature.
That beautiful feeling! Thank you, Bob.
Loved this. Thank you Uncle Bob Randall for sharing this beautiful knowing - the land owns us. We can never be lonely when we are connected to everything around us.
How important this information is Uncle Bod. I have so appreciated walking this land with you - your home, the teaching we did together and our experiences bringing people on tour to experience Ayers Rock as well as your family connections are our family connections. I love you now and always in all ways.
Bob, you are so beautiful, I can listen to you for ever
everyone is here because they got this as their English schoolwork
He says about his birth that “it was in that area there called Tempe Downs where I came out.”
“We do not ‘come into’ this world; we come out of it, as leaves from a tree.
As the ocean ‘waves,’ the universe peoples.”
- Alan Watts
We always belong to The Land
The land never belongs to us....
The Land Owns Us. I love that
The Native Americans say the same, "We don't own the land the land owns us" Beautiful❤👍
The land is part of us. We must respect the entire picture
Hey there 2020 here and virtual school sucks and thats why I'm here haha
This makes me feel humble. The Aboriginal Australians descendents of the first people to leave Africa 75,000 years ago. It has been confirmed they may have the oldest oldest continuous culture on the planet. These people with their "creator" Baiame had Ten Commandments which have been translated with the Key words "Honour and Respect" apply to each of these commandments. May be the United Nations might wish to revisit the Declaration of Human Duties and Responsibilities, split it in two and have a Declaration of Human Responsibilities which is not dependent on the Laws of a Country but rather a passionate belief which the nations Leaders also believed in. Human Rights would be paramount but supported and balance by Human Responsibilities.
It is from responsibilities that you earn rights and freedom! The other way around and you have the potential for abuse of power, domination and tyranny!
Nice video, I am thinking of including this in my lesson plan. Thanks!
Mr Randall is so good at explaining stuff
Amazing cinematography!
Hi Jeanne ...are you watching this? I must have watched this most beautiful man in the world about 24 times by now.
Such sweet and calming energy - a beautiful message to share.
Lovely man.
Great knowledge.
Let us learn.
Let us be one.
This is so incredibly beautiful
Very beautiful Video, I relate to it all from my own experiences, and hope all people will one day be full awakened into Oneness.
He is such a beautiful, wise old soul! ❤️
Love your sole your real attitude. Bless you uncle
"Oneness" couldn't be told better.
Beautiful and meaningful. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! One with your country, is pure Happiness, in spirit mind and body. Beautiful Country..
Who else is coming from school
🌬💚💚💚💚💚💚 unconditional love one love 🌈✨️🌏☯️🌟💪🛸
"No human being is older than the land itself"
Well contrary to your opinion.....all human life began somewhere....there is a beginning place.
@@blackpersia5210 He was talking about one person not the the entirety of human existence
The land is just that: land; inannimate minerals and vegetable matter that we life off. Nothing magical or spiritiual about it.
@@dagwould shows your lack of understanding of culture and knowledge
@@dagwould that's based off what we know, and we know fuck all, stay humble, listen to the culture that has been around for 1000000 years they might know a thing or two white boy
Brilliant. So true.
Thank you so much for this. I was looking for a piece to share with my primary school children that would help me explain the connection between Aboriginal people and country ... I wanted it to be about so much more that a physical connection ... and this is. Bob Randall, you are one of the three people I wish I could share that hypothetical meal with.
There is beauty and love in many things. Bob is "comfortable" or similar words. Anyone who loves beauty and truth in music should listen to two songs by Dolores Keane - a Celt !! The songs are "Solid Ground" which takes the same theme as Bob and "Never be the Sun" which is so beautiful to me and, well you judge what that might be !!!!!!!!!!
I think this is the brightest fella on the continent! Love to you allxx
A very moving song contains the lyrics - "You cannot own the land, the land owns you". Sung by Dolores Keane and many other Celts. So true - different cultures (obviously the Native Aborigines) but there are many others. The message to me is we must respect other cultures and their beliefs. 4251 or so religions with most having similar "commandments".
but it says he owns the great big red rock
Everyone: Here because it is work
Me: No different
Thanks bob
this makes me wanna cry, not cuz its sad or anything. Because this is for homework and i dont understand it.
same bro
You will understand some day...
powerful.
I’m doing this for schoolwork #covid19 I love the dog at the start
I offer assignment help writing services
How inspiring Bob.
Until the connection to land is restored we are all lost. Leaves dancing on the wind without rest cut from the tree 🌳
Rip Bob
That good because it's my school homework and i like thesand thes so help
Beautiful
Great insight into the people who didnt Exist TERRA NULLIUS LIES Long live Aboriginal peoples
The prevailing sense of "ownership" based on British law established everywhere the British Empire touched and most every where else it seems pushes everyone out while the aboriginal sense of it brings everyone in. The American Henry George in the late 19TH century suggested that since the land belongs to all of us in common and because we all create its economic value that the primary and perhaps only tax to support community should be the tax on land values. That makes land common in practice
About the same Anglo-Saxon primitivity. The land doesn't belong to all of us. It belongs to Nature (some call it god), of which we are very small part & we mostly do not understand it (being only 2 mil years on Earth, out of 13.7 bil years of the Universe).
Aboriginies are more advanced in understanding Nature holistically.
beautiful perspective
F in the chat for bob
Thankyou 💕🙏
Wow
who else is here cuz of skool
Wow , how wonderful and so moving , Thank you so much .
bowel moving, thank god... been sitting here a while now!
This is one amazing video and one amazing man. It has given a whole new meaning to OZ and the world down under. I have found endlessly with sheep herders and roo killers, just because they believe them to be pests. How refreshing to see Bob Randall tell us about his thoughts about how we are ALL connected..... how true, so very true....
Bob: No human is older than the land.
Queen Elizabeth: *Other than ME.*
school got me trippin
Bob, wonderful words,an thank u so much

What an amazing discussion. He reminds me of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.
Attendance: ACAP indigenous Social work students !!🙂
As a non-Indigenous Australian, I'm interested to hear Aboriginal perspectives on Kanyini: Do you think it is important for all Aboriginal peoples to experience Kanyini? Do you think the current way of Australian life presents challenges to experiencing Kanyini? Do you think a lack of Kanyini could be problematic for mental wellbeing? Any other insights are welcome! Thanks!
