Greening of the Self (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Joanna Macy | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The premise of "Greening of the Self" is that we are not individuals separate from the world. Instead we are always co-arising or co-creating the world, and we cannot escape the consequence of what we do to the environment. Joanna Macy's innovative writing beautifully demonstrates that by broadening our view of what constitutes self we can cut through our dualistic views and bring about the emergence of the ecological self, that realizes that every object, feeling, emotion, and action is influenced by a huge, all-inclusive web of factors. Any change in the condition of any one thing in this web affects everything else by virtue of interconnectedness. "Greening of the Self" is visionary and future-oriented, making it essential reading for anyone who wants to discover the knowledge authority and courage to respond creatively to the crises of our time. Based on a chapter in Joanna Macy's bestselling "World as Lover, World as Self."
