What Is the Essence of Mind?

[Shin'Ar]

yeah well. i want to poo in the woods and build a mud house. but i can appreciate and create art. all densities have their own coolness.

The issue is, when you live so 'naturally', do you care about whether or not you impose on those around you?

If you are only concerned with yourself, than you will defecate wherever you please, even in my back yard.

If you care about others, humanity as a whole, than you can be among those who strive to live in a cleaner, more hospitable environment where we try to clean up after ourselves for our brother's sake.

yeah cuz that's what i said. i will poo in anyone's yard.

you think pooing in the woods in the middle of nowhere is somehow a bad thing? if you didn't know, poo returns to the earth. you think building huge buildings with modern facilities that do things we could do in unison with Gaia, is better? do we need refridgerators and electric ovens? do we need all this modern stuff? no. do we need to respect Gaia? yes.

do i poo in the woods? no. but i might. i hope you don't consider the world your back yard.

Replace all the times I used the word, 'you' with the word 'one' instead. I was speaking in general, not about you specifically. Sorry.

I agree with you that technology has its downsides and I have a total respect for Gaia. My point is that we must try to make sure that we do not impose on others when we take the world into our own hands. Often our backyards can become very close to each other. We must be considerate of our neighbors in all that we do.

I hope you are able to understand Oceania.
