Beschreibung

Can the global pandemic awaken in us a fresh, new earth consciousness? Can it help bring together nature, spirit & people? An explosive and devastating pandemic which has taken the world by storm, is also helping us slow down, to go within... to reflect on the turn the world is increasingly taking... on the increasing illness and toxicity that prevails through the entire length and breadth of our country and planet. Our interference with nature comes at an enormous price and with far-reaching consequences. Perhaps there is no better time than the present to take stock of our situation to bring forth the wisdom of some of our best minds and apply it to the human and nature relationship, to connect diverse streams, and take us forward towards a fresh, new earth consciousness. Join in a journey of contemplation and reflection...of inspiration and action! While it reflects on the prevailing malaise, it tries to tease one's imagination, to see things whole... acknowledging the wisdom of beauty and the value of practical example. This books writings have the power and potential to shape an alternative world view. In it, you will find a galaxy of over 40 well-known thinkers and authors, old and new, embarking us on a journey that is spiritual, ecological, social, poetic and humorous by turns: ¿ Awakening Spirit ¿ Eco-Diversity ¿ The Social Canopy ¿ Green Beginnings ¿ Call of the Himalayas Authors include: The Mother, J Krishnamurti, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Rudyard Kipling, Rabindranath Tagore, Jawaharlal Nehru, Karan Singh, Satish Kumar, Eckhart Tolle, Maneka Gandhi, EF Schumacher, Jaya Jaitly, Joanna Macy, Ruskin Bond, Jim Corbett, Bulbul Sharma, Prabir Purkayastha, Seema Bhatt, Ashish Kothari and Ranjit Lal amongst an eminent gathering of many more.'
