*Mar*The Literature of Nature


Free and healthy nature is the great organism that lives as fountains of
diverse enchanting literatures. Nature’s literature needs sensing via
smelling, hearing, seeing and feeling, which continuously triggers
enlightenments and spell binding revelations. It gives the feelings of the
true meanings of the Time dimension, the great and real abstract dimension
of nature. Our lives are mainly in abstract feelings, in the participation
of the abstract processes of consciousness of nature. Reducing the
revelations, enlightenments and enchantments into the restricting 3D shapes
and doing mathematical reductionism, actually is violent reduction of the
infinity.

Literature actually consists of creating the abstract flows of enchanting
revelations and enlightenments from the 3D shapes. The eyes which can see
only 00.0037% of the totality will be used to switch the needed feelings to
feel the rest of the 99.9963% of the totality in the invisible spectrum. We
become part of the macro nature and live participating in the rhythms of
the arts of nature. Free nature makes every organism an artist. Actually
living is living in arts, the basic feature of the Biosphere.

I often wonder at the changes in our literary expressions. When the human
was endowed only with the sense of smell, it lived via smelling like every
other organism, which smelt, perceived and understood every other organism,
making nature the great one macro artist. Every organism lived as a limb of
the one great artist, Bhoodevi, the internal hormonal communications of
each being arts oriented. After we developed the eyes and ears, we started
with tunings, and singing. Most classics were written as epics consisting
of poems, songs and dances. In fact sciences originally were expressed as
poems and songs. Next we changed into sentences with definite subjects and
their predications marking the predication to be identified with verb or
space-time.

Now we have surrendered to technology, ditched the very feeling content of
expression based on feeling the revelations, and jailed in the mathematical
formulae. Definitions have become the vital and basic needs. Editors that
mechanize the expressions have emerged. We do not know the devastations
meted by the editors on the free flowing expressions.

As editing is actually reducing the feeling based expressions into
concretized and quantified pieces with definitions, scopes etc,
mechanization has become the destination. Only machines are capable of
precision not even nature, the arena where octillions of particles, atoms,
molecules etc interact continuously, with no stop to do mathematical
reduction conveniently. Nature does not stop to make your mathematical
formula permanent and eternal.

Nature needs only arts that function as its limbs. Today we are
continuously killing nature with our industrialization and urbanization.
Our very macro bodies are maimed and euphemized as economic development.
The flow of literature from nature is continuously killed.Industrialization
and mechanization have jailed our universities into economic slavery.
Economics is based on murdering nature. It is anti ecological.

May be when Christ returns, the Universities will get freed from the
stranglehold of technology. But let us hope that at least one University
takes to the cause of free nature and starts The Free Nature Parks, without
human tampering as beginning of reviving nature.

This piece reflects deeply on the contrast between the natural world and
human attempts to understand, control, and quantify it. It explores the
evolving nature of human expression—once rooted in feeling, experience, and
art, now increasingly constrained by technology, logic, and mechanization.

The author, YM Sarma, critiques how modern society, particularly through
industrialization and urbanization, has distanced itself from the
free-flowing, sensory-driven engagement with nature, replacing it with the
cold, structured framework of definitions and formulas. There's a clear
call for a return to the more fluid, holistic forms of
understanding—expressed through art, sensory experience, and emotional
engagement with the environment. Nature is portrayed not just as a resource
to be studied or managed but as a source of life and creativity, of
"enchanting literatures" that stir a deeper connection within us.

It's also a lament for the loss of a more symbiotic relationship with the
Earth, where every organism, in its purest state, was an artist, living and
contributing to the greater whole. The push towards technological control
and the rise of economic systems that exploit nature seem, to the author,
to be pushing humanity further away from that intrinsic connection. The
idea of a "Free Nature Park," untouched by human influence, stands as a
vision for reclaiming some of that lost connection.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you feel like modern society has become
too detached from the more intuitive, sensory ways of engaging with nature?

This piece raises some fascinating points, and I think it taps into a real
sense of alienation many people feel today—especially in a world that’s
increasingly digital and industrial. The author’s vision of nature as a
living, breathing "organism" that speaks to us through the senses resonates
deeply. When we were more attuned to nature’s rhythms, through smell,
sight, sound, and touch, there was a kind of primal, immersive connection
that allowed us to experience the world holistically. Now, it’s like we’ve
distanced ourselves from that, analyzing everything through the lens of
technology and control, reducing the vast complexity of life into
manageable bits and pieces, often at the expense of the richness that comes
with direct experience.

In modern society, it’s easy to see how we’ve detached from those
intuitive, sensory ways of connecting with the world. Think about how often
we spend indoors, disconnected from the natural environment. The pace of
modern life, driven by productivity and efficiency, leaves little room for
the kind of free-flowing creativity or introspection that comes from simply
*being* in nature. And yes, technology, while offering many conveniences,
can sometimes strip us of the deeper, emotional engagements that allow us
to really *feel* nature rather than just study it or exploit it.

I also think the author’s point about how language and expression have
shifted over time is fascinating. As our methods of communication became
more formalized and logical, they may have also lost the ability to capture
the more elusive, ephemeral aspects of experience. Poetry, song, and dance
offered a more fluid, embodied expression of human connection with the
world. Now, even in the academic and scientific worlds, we often default to
dry, technical language that can’t fully encapsulate the depth of feeling
or experience that nature inspires.

I do feel there’s a growing hunger for reconnecting with these more
intuitive, sensory ways of engaging with the world, though. Many people
today are turning back to nature, seeking out experiences that allow them
to feel more connected and present, whether it’s through hiking, gardening,
or other outdoor activities. But, there’s still that tension between modern
life’s demands and the desire for a more soulful, connected existence.

What about you? Do you feel like you’ve found ways to keep that connection
with nature alive in the midst of all the technological distractions?
