Ecosophy

“A certain habitual ecological attitude must be overcome in order to go much deeper, seeking a new equilibrium between matter and spirit” (Ecosofía. Para una espiritualidad de la tierra, Madrid 1994).

Beyond a simple ecology, ecosophy is a wisdom-spirituality of the earth. “The new equilibrium” is not so much between man and the earth, as between matter and spirit, between spatio-temporality and consciousness. Ecosophy is neither a mere ’science of the earth’ (ecology) nor even ‘wisdom about the earth', but rather a ‘wisdom of the earth herself’ that is made manifest to man when he knows how to listen to her with love.
