Questions and Meditations

But where is the dignity of those who callously exploit, without any regard or respect, those who plunder and who rape?

*

This terrestrial Nature that has given us everything, its blood, its milk, its eggs and its fruits, its fibers and its grains, its sap and its honey and its water of vigor, its stones and its minerals and its gold and its infinite beauty – what have we returned to it?

This incomparable possibility of co-creation, of solidarity, of shared conscious evolution, what have we done of it?

We have eviscerated, pillaged, exhausted and poisoned it, we have stifled it with our practices and choked it with our inert and separate objects.

*

Thus, is not the vengeance of the shadow spread out in every part, laid bare, demonstrated?

Is not the very possibility of continuity compromised?
