Description
Wild Mind, Wild Earth: Our Place in the Sixth Extinction David Hinton explores the interconnectedness of mind and nature, revealing the assumptions that drive our destructive relationship with the planet. The sixth major extinction event, caused by human activity, is a spiritual and philosophical problem that requires a fundamental shift in our understanding of the world. Hinton draws on ancient Chinese spirituality and modern Western environmental thought to offer a new perspective on the crisis. By examining the insights of primal cultures and the Ch'an (Zen) Buddhism of ancient China, Hinton shows how these modes of seeing and being can help us reestablish a deep kinship between human and earth. This journey offers a message of hope and beauty, but also acknowledges the gravity of the situation. Wild Mind, Wild Earth is a thought-provoking and revitalizing exploration of our place in the natural world.
