"In most ancient cultures, people
believed that everything, even so called inanimate objects, had an indwelling
spirit, and in this respect they were closer to the truth than we are today.
When you live in a world deadened by mental abstraction, you don't sense the
aliveness of the universe anymore. Most people don't inhabit a living
reality, but a conceptualized one." Eckhart Tolle A New
