We seem to be part of a mystery that we can barely understand, probably the mystery of being a human, embedded in all forms of living things, near and far, at the same time. Slowly, over the years, we have closed our windows of perception to the outside, to the unstable, unpredictable and ever evolving surroundings. In our great fear of the unknown, the unexpected and uncontrollable, we have crafted a straightjacket which has become increasingly tight. And it is with surprise that we acknowledge the rollercoaster of never ending crises. Perhaps the dreams of harmony and peace, stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights can still be realized. There is a mystery within this mystery, which may very well hold the keys of many of these enigmas. It is hidden, invisible and rarely acknowledged. It is the mystery of farming. Peasants embedded within nature, working closely with plants and animals selected over millennia. |
