Rationale Everything in Nature is unified because each thing comes from and is attracted to something else. Nothing is left out in Nature, everything belongs. That is an intelligent relationship perfection. Its essence is Nature's unifying attraction process and communication that builds and sustains natural systems. As now, so then: Most sciences recognize that the natural processes we observe happening on Earth today are a continuation of Nature's processes throughout the eons. This "As now, so then" knowledge helps us realize that during the eons before humanity, long before humanity's invention of words, the same natural attraction process we find building and sustaining natural systems today organized and built the pre-human, non-literate, natural world. "As now, so then" science and reasoning argue that the natural attraction process and communication we observe and experience in nature had its origins in some primordial natural attraction or attractions in the beginning of time. As of old, when natural attractions interact today they are attracted to grow and diversify by melding with each other and with additional natural attractions that present themselves moment by moment. At every level Nature rewards natural attraction fulfillment with greater support, belonging and unity for the survival of those involved in the attraction relationship and for all of life. In attractive unity, today as yesterday, natural attraction relationships continue to build and sustain every aspect of the world we know, including our organic selves. Our psyche, biology, reasoning, emotions and spirit consist of natural attractions. These are the same attractions that enable people to be attracted to some form of God, Science, Spirituality, Art or Origins. They are also the same attractions that hold atoms, molecules, materials and our solar system together. On a natural attraction level, we, nature and each other are identical, united and communicate via attractions. The Great Circle of Life can be seen as a passion to fulfill its natural attractions moment by moment.. This passion drives its flow. Fulfilling natural attractions is a basic purpose of life and of being because it supports both. What we call survival is an attraction of life, including our life, to live. What we call conflict resolution or problem solving consists of making space for our many natural attractions, including our attraction to be reasonable, to do in congress what they do best. Natural attraction reasoning recognizes that since their beginning, natural systems and Earth have built their perfection without using words. Natural attractions, not words, names, labels and definitions have been, and are, Earth's cooperative means of communicating and relating to sustain the dynamic equilibrium of its balanced perfection. Caution. The notion that the organic perfection attained by natural systems is accomplished via natural, non-literate relationships often threatens your ego. Our ego survives and controls the world through our dependence on its verbal ego stories being the power and prime source of our information and survival. In our nature-disconnected, nature-conquering society, ego stories are seldom attached to Nature or natural attractions. To the contrary; usually our stories separate us from, demean or dismiss our attractions to Nature as "tree hugging." "environmentalism" or some other belittling term.   Our ego mentality is a king that fears its own downfall and death if we do not exalt its literate thinking and stories. To protect its mental kingdom and to continue conquering Nature, the Ego controls our education and labels most of our ever present natural attractions as "bad " or "wrong." This hurtfully drives them into our subconscious where we may need mental health assistance to calm, heal or recover them. How wise are we? How many of us are even willing to think about our behavior or ego? After all, to do so confronts, often uncomfortably, the ego part of our psyche. That's the part of you that is reading these words right now. The key to communiction in Natural Attraction is to recognize that Natural Attraction is an essence of Nature, is non-verbal, and that attractions always attach themselves to something. Thus, through natural attractions, every word, name or label we place on any part of Nature bonds and attaches us to that label through as many as 53 attractions. When our words, names or labels differ even slightly, our inherent, natural unity and survival disconnects. If we do not return to the Natural Attraction language and relationships we naturally hold in common, we separate with respect to differing things like religion, politics, music, places, customs, values, stories, nationalities, sports, teams and the environment. Our attrachments to symbols and stories go as far as fight to the death to defend the meaning of our symbols vs the symbols and ways of others. In Nature, survival is the cohesive unity of attraction. Thus our natural self feels detached, abandoned or threatened on some level by labels and belief systems that differ from those we are comfortable with. These differences can bring prejudice and hostility into play. Whenever we don't return to Natural Attraction, we seldom change because we are bonded to our ways and beliefs, no matter how unreasonable or destructive. Our problems remain and we suffer.     Return to the "Letter from Earth" page       WHAT ELSE YOU CAN DO: Publish or network the above message.
