Las venas del dragón

Since ancient times the universe has been conceived in China as a system of resonances in which there are no things or beings but active forces in perpetual mutation. There is nothing in him that acts separately, nothing that does not depend on everything else. Considering the environment from that perspective can certainly help us in the elaboration of the ecosophy and ethhopolitics that are currently needed to transform our societies. Never as now has the perception of the need for a change in parameters been so pressing and, therefore, the responsibility to educate ourselves in this regard so imperative. The initial teachings of the three streams of thought dealt with in this book can help us in this endeavor. Good government (Confucianism), harmony with the environment (Taoism) and a deep understanding of our own nature (Buddhism) are presented as three essential ingredients to avoid the catastrophe that is coming. That these proposals will ever together become something more than a utopia is really unlikely, but perhaps it is worth recovering them now from other places.
