‘Western societies tend to see nature and humanity as separate.

But are there other ways of relating to the natural world?’

'Heaven is my father and earth is my mother, 

and I, a small child, find myself placed intimately between them.

What fills the universe I regard as my body;

what directs the universe I regard as my nature. 

All people are my brothers and sisters; all things are my companions.’- Zhang Zai (1020–1077)
