Waking Times
Our educational system has trained us to compartmentalize that which is whole, and to believe that knowledge is superior to wisdom. This presents a significant drawback for the preservation of the planet, because she operates according to a quite different set of values.
Gaia, our planet Earth, is a living, breathing and subtly responsive entity; yet one we mostly treat as a lifeless, unresponsive and largely foreign material object. Is it any wonder that she labours under the yoke of human occupation?
Yet there is, in amongst the callous destruction, much that expresses positive and creative aspiration for something much better. The message that radiates out from these sources speak of mankind’s courage, love and determination in the face of adversity. Of our determination to defend the sanctity of life – at all costs.
