Man and Nature


"Many people who seek the help of a psychotherapist are really victims of modern life, which separates human beings from the rest of nature."(from Love in Action by Thich Nhat Hanh).
"I have noticed myself,sometimes,that when your mind is utterly dead around the house and in church,you can go out to work in the garden and soon find God within you after you have been sweating a little in the sun." (from The Sign of Jonas by Thomas Merton).We see and feel the presence of God in nature when we till the soil,plant the seeds and witness the miracle of new life.
