Spirit of Place
There is spirit everywhere. Spirit is being. If it exists there is spirit behind it. If it has action there is spirit behind that behaviour. Each eco-system has its own spirit. Individual sections of an eco-system can have recognizable spirits separate from the larger. I don’t believe in good and bad spirit. Just harmonious state and conflicted state. I don’t believe that everything is light. I think what we call light and dark are complimentary forces that merge in a greater spirit. To call light and dark good and bad is to degenerate into ego.
What do the good know, but what the evil teach them? Are these absolute states of good and evil real? Nature doesn’t seem to support absolutes. When we go to extremes either our own nature brings us back to center, or supposedly external nature will. It is all about balance.
Regrettably there are places in nature where it does not welcome us, and those are growing due to human abuses. In theory man should be able to go anywhere and be at oneness. Humanity as a mass is not balanced and thus more and more of nature is resisting human presence. Humanity as a species is not in harmony. You can build in a way that acknowledges the “Te” or virtue of the place. You can build in harmony with the way of the place where you build.
Your thoughts are welcome. Be well friends.
