Blue Snow Garden

Thanks to Dr Leong for his nice greeting with a picture of a green caterpillar with white stripes.

As you may have realised, the Earth Hour website is counting down to Copenhagen Climate Summit and you can now make a beautiful virtual lantern to send to Copenhagen…

Here is the lantern I made… Let’s pray for Earth and our future.

Werner Heisenberg, a german nobel prize winner said:

“Natural science does not simply describe and explain nature; it is a part of the interplay between nature and ourselves… What we observe is not nature itself, but nature exposed to our method of questioning.”

It has come to my senses how important it is to interpret nature correctly. For a wrong interpretation can mean natural disaster for mankind. From my daily research, I have been inspired by some Taoist teaching on how to interpret Nature and some friends have pointed me in the right direction. I can only share these with you at the moment:

How is Nature linked with Taoism? At the end of Chapter 25 of Tao:

Humans follow the laws of Earth
Earth follows the laws of Heaven
Heaven follows the laws of Tao
Tao follows the laws of Nature

I know that was too deep for you, but anyway…

Some benefits you could earn by interpreting Nature correctly (according to Taoism):

• being more composed and more at ease in various situations;
• being able to handle challenges and difficulties with less effort and achieving better results;
• experiencing greater power and clarity in all areas of life.

More on this when I have become more enlightened. Peace be with all living beings.

There’s a new search engine out there that plants 2 trees for every search you make.

It’s called Ecocho.com.

Now I feel a lot better searching knowing they’ll plant some trees…

So should we all stop using the other search engines?
