GUDRATRIGAKWITL

In the myths of the Wiyot people of Northern California, Gudratrigakwitl created the universe by the unusual method of putting his hands together and then spreading the palms and fingers wide, like wings. The whole created world lies safe between these outspread hands, and despite the evil and cruelty it contains, in his benevolence he has never yet been moved to clap them together and end it.
