Guest guest Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 Wallace/all, I also think that loss of our connection to all life explains the general insanity on the planet. I don't know any other way to explain it. Whether it is continuous war, butchery on a global scale, or a mother who drowns her children in a bath tub, I think the ultimate cause is disaffection from nature. Since I've been a political progressive activist all my life, I've always talked about the 'isms'- classism, capitalism, racism, etc. Those play a role, but since I've read Buhner's book, and many others, I am convinced that if we keep uncovering the layers, peeling back, going ever more and more inward, searching for truth, that the ultimate cause of pain and frustration is our disconnection to nature. And the concept that we are all alone out here. Not realizing that Joni was right, we are made of the same materials as the stars. ellen > > re-programs the immune system to change its > response to illness, " you write. > > Others know Buhner better than I do here but I suspect B (as a > psychotherapist) would use things like Earth Cermonies, Plant teachers > (I tried Kava drink yesterday), vision quests to accomplish this.B says > that once you lose your connection to the web of life illness and > disharmony start(in Sacred plant medicine).
