Being in direct contact with Nature means being in direct contact with reality.
The opposite means operating under assumptions, probabilistic reasoning, external expectations, foreign constructs that set you up at a most often disadvantaged position, because the goal of comunicating between people and managing relationships between people is, and always was, driven by a sole objective: to achieve advantage of the individual over the circumstances and that includes over other people.
«All of these processes are designed to erase reality.»
These are excerpts from the 2006 Globe surf movie “The Secret Machine” dir by Joe Guglielmino.
