‘The rational control we as humans exert every day on our surroundings is leading us towards the understanding of “otherness” not as a process of mutual teaching and learning but as a solid intellectual structure that will make us experience the world from a privileged perspective. Nature, as a massive power we are unable to resist, represents an uncontrollable “other” that is not receptive to human intentions.
As part of the ecological system that is nature, we are supposed to let our consciousness wander to both the exterior and interior of our mind, receive certain things from nature, and give others back to her. What is it that we can sense and learn through these attempts to communicate with the various forms of the “other” that nature takes on?’
