Your Love Will Save The Earth
Your Love Will Save The Earth
"Our Plant Needs Lovers''
Reading Does Not Guarantee Sustainability
Will education, knowledge and information save Earth from destruction? The answer is: ‘No.’ It is a matter of no small consequence that the only people who have lived sustain-ably on the planet for any length of time could not read, and do not make a fetish of reading,”
The Educated Destroying The Planet
Clearly, as it stands, many of those destroying the planet are very educated people. Is there something wrong with our education system then? “Our education system has little place for connection, deep questions, silence, meditation, and contact with the consequences of ideas.”
Real Education Is Mastery Of Oneself
Education will not save us — but education of a certain kind might just save the world. Therefore, the goal of education is not mastery of subject matter, but of oneself.
Do Not Dominate Nature
Lesson Number One is: Do not dominate nature. We should try to build an example of a sustainable economy powered by renewable energy in the heart of our country, and move an entire city to becoming ‘carbon positive.
Learn Mindfulness And Compassion
We should endeavor to change minds. We should borrows from the philosophy of the river of life; we have responsibility towards our ancestors from the past and our future generations to come.
Om Namah Shivay.
