The Ecosophy is a way of living in harmony with the land they inhabit. An interdisciplinary science which teaches us to recognize, respect and care for our “home”.
The Ecosophy is a stream of environmentalism but that goes beyond the anthropocentric position of the environmental movement as it incorporates a spiritual dimension and global. This term, coined by Felix Guattari transports us to a new way of perceiving the place we live. The Ecosophy implies the need to take steps to protect the environment but also to promote a profound change in worldview and return to universal principles. Not only is sustainability or environmental protection. It is something else. The goal is wisdom to inhabit the planet.
Conflict and underdevelopment:
The deterioration Ecosophy warns that adorn peoples. The ghost of underdevelopment is progressing on the so-called First World as the worlds less advanced technologically or scientifically, are left in oblivion. Poverty, misery and unsustainable life forms exist between 6,500 million. No space left over or missing people on conflict and harmful lifestyles. With this background the Ecosophy appears as a bridge that can move various streams converge on the common goal of recovering the welfare of the planet.
A common bridge to unite different paths:
The Ecosophy can play the role of bridge in this discipline as many access points converge, different groups and ideologies can work together for the good of the environment. This special and welcoming openness could be the seed of a new philosophy of the century. Note that the Ecosophy has recognized the current crisis as a crisis of values and failed ideologies of the twentieth century. Has revealed the failure of the positive view of materialism. And strives to find a more harmonious, balanced and comprehensive in the world to make it more habitable for all.
The four fields of Ecosophy:
The Ecosophy rests on four pillars:
– The scientific field: knowledge of science that lead us towards a new world view and a deeper understanding of the laws of life.
– The emotional field: where we learn to emotionally confront the global crisis, without having to repress it. It is about transforming the strain caused by the global crisis in energy and feelings fruitful. Compassion is important to use as a positive source of energy.
– The practical field: where developing alternatives that will enable the society and the individual to live in better harmony with nature. It is organizing a lifestyle and a set of enduring values and valid for the future, and not at the expense of future generations. The synergies are the cornerstones in this field.
– The spiritual realm: a guide to take us to nature and make us feel that we are part of the web of life. And develop a more global responsibility, less anthropocentric and opportunistic.
The idea of being green is one of the keys Ecosophy. Gregory Bateson, cyber, and one of the pioneers of the new systems theory, and Ecosophy, explains: “The boundaries between man and Nature are artificial”. Man has turned away from nature to want to transform force and has become alien. He forgot that belongs to it.
The Ecosophy want a model of coexistence in communion with nature to interact with an organism. He points out that we are not only human but we are an important part of Nature. This idea can be integrated into our consciousness when leaving the egocentric thinking and begin to identify with the environment. So what Ecosophy born Being called ecological.
A new being:
This new Being is identified not only by his physical body, but through the information it receives from its environment. The new consciousness will change the way we look, feel and “practice” life. The new being is part of a whole and all. A dual being. It belongs to Nature and her. Need for nature and nature will require.
The main idea of the Ecosophy shows that all levels are interconnected and act together. The idea is to create a mesh network environment in which we live. Being mesh is to be part of the network. Without our little part there is no all possible.
The Ecosophy shows the world that we inhabit a house and garden. Each of us is a house and the garden is the common ground that unites us and together we take care of. The Ecosophy trained in how to administer the living space, how living, how to respect, preserve and deliver “fresh” and sustainable for generations to come.
