Avatar ways of life

The acceptance to a new life style, Jake had to adapt to the ways of life as an Avatar. What he had to adapt to is very similar in how we adapt to other cultures. In the movie Jake had to learn their language, culture, habitat, survival tactics, and spiritual knowledge. This state’s how life is actually portrayed when learning of a new type of society and culture. We don’t know what to expect when introduced into a new culture or place. This is the same as Jake he at first didn’t know what was going to happen or if he would be accepted into their culture. But Neytiri was a big help to this, she showed him a lot and help him understand her world, which made the other Avatars start to accept him.

A significant scene in the movie is when the female avatar Neytiri was showing and teaching Jake about the home tree and how it represents life and ancestry. What it meant was how there is a life after death but it shows just like how in cultures/religions in today’s current society that, there is a life after more important or with deeper symbolic meaning. What it does to the viewer is makes you think is there a life after death and how it is like a fantasy world in Pandora, causing it to seem perfect and if there really is a greater meaning after death as it was shown in the movie. This made me wonder if Jake would ever be totally accepted into the culture as an avatar. It made me feel as if I am not as grateful for the life that I have and the meaning to me having life, stating what it stands for. The home tree is a symbol representing their past. The tree could answer any question you had. This tree makes you seem how history is a big part of the future and how it represents the past as well. This makes me wonder, Is there really life after death? Some people may or may not believe so. The movie in a strong way relates to very similar ways of our society, morals, and beliefs that we have.
