Throughout history, Mother Earth has always been a part of indigenous cultures, suggesting that we have always been aware of existing within a living breathing ecology. British Biochemist, James Lovelock gave this concept a scientific twist, whilst working with NASA’s space program he formulated the Gaia Hypothesis.
“The biosphere is a self-regulating entity with the capacity to keep our planet healthy by controlling the chemical and physical environment.”
James Lovelock
A simplistic view is that through Gaia the Earth sustains a kind of homeostatis, through Gaia we can begin to understand our connectedness to all things on our planet and within ourselves.
“A human being is part of the whole called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us.
Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty…
We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.”
Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
