I don’t buy the argument of becoming one with something and to treat anger or fear as something to be avoided. At some point, when we mature as a species, we will see anger and fear as components of living that are integral to being animals, if the mineral world is not similar. Being at one and being unconscious strike me as similar to being an un-feeling being, as a yearning for a “peace” that is imaginary because of our inner turmoil.
We do not know how to handle our anger and our fear and we treat them as something we must avoid. When we feel music and poetry, we feel it because it touches us emotionally.

David Suzuki’s book “The Sacred Balance” takes this beautiful thought into the scientific realm. He certainly convinced me that we are all part of everything (seen and unseen!).
