BUDDHISM, ECOLOGY AND SENSORY PERCEPTION

Samo Škrbec ; Institut za ekologiju, Ljubljana

Sažetak

“Human beings destroy the environment in a similar way as they destroy each other... recovery and surpassing of this is only possible through a recovery of an individual, elementary connection with the visible world.” Chogyam Trungpa.
Premisses of a confusing metaphysics have led us to a discrepancy and alienation of thought and body, body and planete, and even to a gap between man and other living creatures. It is important for an ecology to establish and retain the knowledge of our mutual links, i.e. to revitalize the feeling of a mutual interconnectedness between the living and non–living.
Buddhism has developed a number of insights into barriers which continously appear during an expansion of a limited identification with our own ego. The next barrier can be overcome only when we start to look at the ego as something which is not any more detached from the space in which everything exists, starts and dies. The identification with the phenomenal world as something what we not separated from, demand sincerity and a judgement of heart and intellect. Only from this point on we can start with another preception of the world.
