    Back to The Landscapes - Marcelo J. Bauer

    Introduction

    A great part of our problems and suffering arise from our belief in dogmas and myths created by ourselves, pressured by society, or even by secular customs. These dogmas condition the worldview into a monolithic pattern, uniformed, and leveled to the opinions, creating antagonistic groups that consider themselves the holders of the truth, and capable of clashing with each other to defend their ideologies.

    What these ways of looking at the world have in common, on a greater or lesser level, is the fragmented way of thinking and acting. They ignore, in many cases, the integrative and interdependent aspect of Nature, giving importance to the restrictive and tight aspects.

    The cloud of fantasies and illusions twists the sight to a point where it becomes myopic and blurry, and in so many cases blinding us profoundly. Everything we see, we see under the perspective of a filter that selects what should and should not be considered.

    This distorted view leads us to assumptions and prejudiced opinions towards Nature, to our peers, and about ourselves, causing conflicts and aggravating even further the fragmented character of our relationships, leading to a snowball effect.

    It takes humbleness to recognize that something is wrong, but also a lot of courage to dissolve the clouds of darkness upon our eyes, and allow the light of a new dawn to enlighten us.

    The seek for the light, the knowledge, and the truth is a difficult and insecure path in the darkness of uncertainty. Those who are brave enough to become a child again and free from behavior guidelines will be subject to wounds resulting from this hard and tempestuous journey.

    It is a particular and intimate journey for everyone who is willing to go through it, and therefore, it is individual and can't be imitated or copied.

    It is a time of deep loneliness and anguish, of helplessness and doubt.

    Crossing the path of darkness, the dawn of a new morning arses in the horizon. And with a healthy and restored sight, we are able to see clearly everything that has always been there, waiting for a lucid and comprehensive gaze.

    Now, we no longer need supranatural miracles, nor idols, nor magic, nor manuals or recipes, much fewer dogmas, as we become capable of, at every moment instant, witnessing and enjoying the miracles that are part of our mundane existence.

    Miracles that have always been under our noses, thousands of miracles in every second that became routine, which the lack of sensibility prevented us to notice. Miracles like the Sun, the Trees. and the Mountains, the People and ourselves, multiples facets of a single Reality
