Orcas in captivity often have their dorsal fins flop over—most likely from their restricted movement. What bodily ailments do you suffer from due to your captivity in the consumer culture?

Waves, Waterfalls and Our Eventual Return to Gaia

by Erik Assadourian | posted in: Gaian Beliefs and Purpose, Understanding Gaia | 2

Death is our inevitable return to Gaia. And as it is inevitable it should not be feared. Rather our focus should be on how we live our lives.

Why Are We So Anxious?

Listening for Greensong

by Erik Assadourian | posted in: Uncategorized | 2

All around us is Greensong—the sounds, vibrations, smells, and tastes of a living planet. Can you sense it? Are you listening? What does it tell you?

The Gaian Creed

“We believe that the Earth, Gaia, is a living being. That Gaia is at the same time composed of the vast diversity of life and is alive in Her own right. We understand that we depend completely and utterly on Gaia and are part of Gaia. We recognize that current human actions are fundamentally altering Gaia and that if pushed too far, Gaia will shift from Her current state to one inhospitable to humans and millions of other species. Therefore, we commit to living radically sustainable lives—even to an extent that it may alienate us from our kin, our communities, our cultures. We commit to sharing our philosophy and bringing others to understand and embrace their relationship with Gaia and help heal Gaia—and in the process, themselves, their families, and their communities.”
