To the Bunuba Thirrili means power and
strength, this is the essence of Thirrili.
Through our ancient and collective knowing we draw from our deep ancestral connection to country; we derive strength and power from her in all ways. We honour this connection that reminds us of our sovereignty, working in ways that respect and rekindle our cultural values of relationship and reciprocity. Through the healing smoke from fire, we find space to remember peace and hope, bringing new days to our old ways.
Thirrili acknowledges country, and all sovereign Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. We acknowledge the shared grief and loss that we experience through sorry time. We acknowledge the loss and grief which comes from the impacts of suicide or other traumatic death. We pay our respects to our Ancestors, and our Elders who walk alongside us always, past, present and future.
