Human-Centricity and Nature

To consider that the world has no meaning or
purpose is merely to say
that the world is not
centered on humanity. Without his ideals and

motivations, an individual is frightened of being
a nothing in the nothingness of a purposeless

world.
In actuality, man's ideals of "purpose" as the
basis of life
and nature are nothing but his own
conditioned concepts. Nature
cannot be seen in
terms of human thought, logic or language. What

appears cruel and unjust in nature seems so
only when the matter is
considered from view
point of a separated and estranged individual

human. But the rest of nature is totally
unconcerned because the rest
of nature is not
human-hearted.
