Nature et spiritualité
Jean-Marie Pelt2008
This book wants to highlight the deep convergence of the great philosophical, spiritual and religious traditions of the world on essential points of modern sensibility: necessary ecological sobriety to limit the exhaustion of natural resources, alliance of man and nature to to maintain the great biological and climatic balances, while questioning the Promethean dream where sciences and techniques, closely linked to capitalism, lead humanity at full speed in a dream of power and domination, in defiance of all moderation and wisdom . All the more reason not to forget that man is endowed with spiritual potentialities and that to reduce it to his only economic and social dimensions would be to amputate the values which make the singularity and the honor of humanity. For the biologist Jean-Marie Pelt, a new ethics is essential, that of a spiritual ecology, the only way forward. This work, imbued with great sensitivity and often very moving, contains a powerful testimony of hope.
