We cannot be separated from the natural world.
The air we breathe, water we drink, food we eat, and sunshine we absorb are all, obviously, part of the natural world.
We are thus made from the natural world.
Our mind is given expression through our brain, itself a product of the natural world.
All of our products, real or synthesised, are made with materials from the natural world.
Even our abstract products, created by our minds given expression through the organic substance of our brains, are thus indirectly dependent on the natural world.
In fact those products (and services) are all created to somehow interface with the natural world, because they all interface with us!
Whether we deal with the truth of our physical nature or transcend to the reality of our metaphysical nature, we still remain interfaced with the natural world. For the natural world is everything that is real and authentic and whether it be the energy of mind (higher or lower) or the density of matter (solid, liquid, gas), embodied or disembodied, formed or formless, it all comes forth from the same Source of things.
Nothing is separate.
To disconnect from the natural world, and not outwardly value its contribution to our incarnate expression here is ignorance at the least, and a form of psychosis otherwise...at worst, abject insanity.
Real value lies with the natural world.
And absolute value lies with Life.
That is one of the highest of spiritual laws.
Honour Life
Respect Life
Protect Life
The Earth our home planet is alive.
Let every day that it nourishes you be a testament to the gift of Life that has been given you.
