Abstract

This essay aims to mention the elements that maintain the effectiveness, tranquility, family and neighborhood unity, peace and security of Indigenous peoples. Likewise, definitions are written about Good Living from the worldview of Nicaragua and Latin American peoples. For the Rama people, Good Living is based on the translation of all the symbols of nature, interpreting the meaning of the actions of animals that are in the trees, those that are inside and outside of fresh and salt water, communicating with nature through spirituality, having basic services, fear of God, not having enemies of any kind. In addition, the community must be seen as a space of collective meaning, organized with leaders in the territories, who link the knowledge and actions of the people in harmony with nature, linking the ancestral wisdom of the elders, wise men and women.
