The Greening Of The Desert

People Should Relate To Nature As Birds Do. Birds Don't Run Around Carefully Preparing Fields, Planting Seeds, And Harvesting Food. They Don't Create Anything . . . They Just Receive What Is There For Them With A Humble And Grateful Heart.

We Must Find Our Way Back To True Nature. We Must Set Ourselves To The Task Of Revitalizing The Earth. Regreening The Earth, Sowing Seeds In The Desert--that Is The Path Society Must Follow.

As We Kill Nature, We Are Killing Ourselves, And God Incarnate As The World As Well.

Gradually I Came To Realize That The Process Of Saving The Desert Of The Human Heart And Revegetating The Actual Desert Is Actually The Same Thing.

Many People Think That When We Practice Agriculture, Nature Is Helping Us In Our Efforts To Grow Food. This Is An Exclusively Human-centered Viewpoint... We Should Instead, Realize That We Are Receiving That Which Nature Decides To Give Us. A Farmer Does Not Grow Something In The Sense That He Or She Creates It. That Human Is Only A Small Part Of The Whole Process By Which Nature Expresses Its Being. The Farmer Has Very Little Influence Over That Process... Other Than Being There And Doing His Or Her Small Part.
