Nature is independent of preconceived doctrinal assumptions

Within our society, the loss of a sense of reality, in being in the present moment suffered by individuals, often reflects collective problems such as the devaluation of women, the projected narcissistic exploitation of individual human values or the emphasis on appearances rather than a meaningful relation to life. This corresponds to the traditional notion that the soul has been psychologically stolen by the attitude of the collective consciousness, that we have lost our connection to the flow of our deeper wellsprings of being. But if we tap into the flow of the psychic life of our culture by means of the relationship we experience as a reflected resonance in a shared consciousness of inner vision. Or experience it in the wilderness. In Nature as something that is actually inside our selves. We are experiencing the reality of this continuity of what we are across the barrier of the skin in the structure of our present moment where eternity is physicalized as place, which includes both our psychology and physiology. It is determined by the same dynamics as those which we obtain in nature at large. This is a genuine primordial experience of our communion with Nature as the flow of all psychic life. It is here it becomes a sacrament. Psyche and Nature are not separate entities. Psyche is the conscious experience of Nature. It is where it becomes conscious of itself. When I eat, it’s not just about quenching my hunger, getting the nutrients I need. It is also about the energy content in a psychic sense. When I eat this is transmitted to me. I experience a communion with the nature that surrounds me, and in a psychic sense we become one and the same. What it is I eat, how it is treated, and where it comes from is important to me. It also makes me aware of my relationship to the air I breathe and the water I drink. I experience this relationship in an absolute sense. That is why I spend so much time with myself outdoors. To listen. This experience is strongest for me there. I am that nature.
