Sometimes I come across a tree which seems like Buddha or Jesus: loving, compassionate, still, unambitious, enlightened, in eternal meditation, giving pleasure to a pilgrim, shade to a cow, berries to a bird, beauty to its surroundings, health to its neighbors, branches for the fire, leaves for the soil, asking nothing in return, in total harmony with the wind and the rain. How much can I learn from a tree? The tree is my church, the tree is my temple, the tree is my mantra, the tree is my poem and my prayer.
Economy without ecology means managing the human nature relationship without knowing the delicate balance between humankind and the natural world
We depend on the gifts of nature, but these gifts must be received with gratitude and not exploited or abused
Without the land, the rivers, the oceans, the forests, the sunshine, the minerals and thousands of natural resources we would have no economy whatsoever
What we call 'economic growth' is in fact a growth in waste and a decline in the health of natural habitat
Our relationship with Nature... best way of forging this relationship... be a pilgrim and not a tourist on Planet Earth
