Description
This program explores the natural world as an access point to the sacred, and poses some urgent philosophical and existential questions, including How do we see “ourselves” amongst the wider family of earth’s inhabitants? Do our most serious environmental problems perhaps stem from our very concept or understanding of “self”? Our word “ecology” stems from the Greek “oikos,” or home. Yet, given our human responsibility for the number of animal species that are declining at alarming rates, we must ask if our human notions of “ecology” or of “the sacred”is actually blind to nature’s fundamental laws and truths?
