According to the Navajo religion, the universe is a very delicately balanced thing. If this balanced is upset, some disaster, usually an illness, will follow. To restore the balance and harmony means performing one of the many Navajo chants or ways. These complex ceremonies involve the use of herbs, prayers, songs and sandpaintings.

This sandpainting measures 3”x6”. With the matting and frame it measures almost 6”x9”.
