We Are Bio-Cosmic Beings Learning to Live in a Living Universe

By Duane Elgin
In the Current Edition of Kosmos Journal

“Our view of the Universe profoundly impacts how we live in the world. If we think we live in a Universe that is comprised of non-living particles without meaning and purpose, then it makes sense to exploit that which is dead on behalf of ourselves, the most visibly alive. Alternatively, if we have direct experiences of connecting with the aliveness in nature and the world around us, then it is natural to respect and care for the countless expressions of aliveness.”

“Art is God’s way of clearing the path to our hearts.” These are the words of Dominique de Menil, who worked with Mark Rothko as the patron for the world-famed Rothko Chapel in Houston. These words inspired me as I worked with Louise Nevelson as the patron for the internationally acclaimed Nevelson Chapel in the heart of Manhattan.


Ecology As Erotic Love

By Marc Bekoff, Ph.D., excerpted from Psychology Today

“An ‘Erotic Ecology’ is an art of living, of caring for the biosphere and of creating satisfying relationships inspired by the Eros of life — the power which makes everything in our reality yearn for connection and transformation.” – Andreas Weber
