Ignoring the truth leads to a painful realisation

when one prefers the illusion.


The-Environmentalist


Knowledge cannot be acquired, knowledge must be learned, understood and felt with enthusiasm.


The-Environmentalist


Knowledge does not mean to know how to act.


The-Environmentalist


Life experience is not what has happened,

but what you do with it.


The-Environmentalist


A real change happens through the inner self

in the human being.


The-Environmentalist


Intelligence and knowledge lead to loneliness.


The-Environmentalist


Our environment, an odyssey like a book with seven seals.

Environmental knowledge,

experience and honesty, combined with action,-

accompanies it with light,

yet it crosses ever-widening zones of fog.


The-Environmentalist


Like water, life flows away,

but everything has a purpose.

God has given us everything we need,

this knowledge is our benefit.


The-Environmentalist


Causality denotes a necessary relationship between

one event (the cause) and another event (the effect),

which is the direct consequence of the first.


The cognition is composed by the answer to the question of the wherefrom and the connection with the whereto.


Knowledge can be raised if it encompasses the fountainhead,

progress and conclusion.


The-Environmentalist


‘Reading’ is a dialogue with our soul,

a revelation of insights arising from within.


Read and listen, that you may find your destiny...


The-Environmentalist


Life, with the knowledge of the past,

nescience and trust in tomorrow,

is a wonderful gift, which should be appreciated more.


The-Environmentalist


What is normal today?

 

Man pretends to be outwardly normal, but his average is supposed to be above the norm of normal.

For in the present eon, norms are set in such a way that abnormality has become the standard of these normal norms. Does one have to be abnormal to be within the norm,

to be officially normal?


The question also arises here:

is this normality not the reflection of madness?

 

What is the cause?

 

The distance from and to God,

- which throws man out of his intended path of life.


The-Environmentalist


The past is a reflection of our ethos

and points the way to the future.

The past of our biography is a constantly

growing human asset.


The present is a summation of the interaction between good and evil, truth and untruth of the past.


A key of realisation with the knowledge to tread the path of your future correctly.


The-Environmentalist


With the knowledge from the past, it must be our directive to behave more responsibly towards nature.

We must reorganise the phenomenon of time.

The pace of time, determined by haste and hurry, combined with the often senseless, must no longer be influenced by this. 


The decisive factor is the "now". Use time sensibly to solve problems "now" with knowledge from the past for the preservation of nature.

Responsibility begins "now".


The-Environmentalist


The spirit explores all things, including the depths of creation. But only a free spirit can evolve and become successful.


The-Environmentalist


The truth is like a rose;

to come to light

when it‘s time.

Both bear thorns, 

their blossom is wisdom,

more valuable than

all treasures in 

the world. 


The-Environmentalist


A true friendship has many characteristics and is,

among others, like the sea; near and far, rough and stormy, balanced and calm, powerful and gentle.


An elixir of life, filled with longing, that takes,

gives and connects.


The-Environmentalist


Thoughts and emotions are like an inner knowledge resource of thinking and feelings that ought to be activated.


However, thoughts are not to be equated with thinking and emotions are not the same as feeling.


The-Environmentalist


An honourable life includes honour, dignity, virtue and morality. Righteousness is deserved by the person

who does nothing wrong.


This righteousness requires our character to be formed in

 such a way that legal obedience and righteousness emerge as legal conformity and legal integrity.


This commitment to legal morality embodies our value.

It should therefore also be irrevocable to do wrong to someone.


The-Environmentalist


For much of humanity, living becomes directed towards to inexhaustible vicarious satisfaction, with resulting desperation and without prospects. Imagine being a good person;

be in jeopardy if you neglect GOD's principles,

or ignore righteous behaviours.


Selfishness, greed, materialism, pomposity, violence, humiliation, recklessness, fraud, lies, contempt, meanness, envy, intrigue, hostility, anger, hatred and exploitation have become synonymous with permanent (economic) growth. Selfish greed for maximization of profit is a sin which

eventually becomes the norm.


Nature has been given to us, and we are destroying it, inexorably and with increasing speed.

Our efforts to sustainably assist nature shall always be our goal.


The-Environmentalist


Faith inspires hope,

the mind and senses generate feelings

and influence our knowledge, including that suffering, poverty and hardship arise from selfishness and greed.


Our actions should be based on truth and justice,

then the positive changes we desire are possible.


The-Environmentalist


Development cannot be forced;

wisdom consists in knowing and leaving the time

that is needed.


However, action should be taken immediately so that tomorrow does not become today's yesterday.


The-Environmentalist


1832 Johann Wolfgang von Goethe:

Who thwarts what fondly all expect,

He hath disturb'd a hornet's nest;

The empire which they should protect,

It lieth plunder'd and oppress'd.

Their furious rage may none restrain;

Already half the world's undone;

Abroad there still are kings who reign—

None thinks 'tis his concern, not one.

Faust. Part Two of the Tragedy. Stuttgart, 1832

2021 The-Environmentalist:

Who thwarts what fondly all expect,

He hath disturb'd a hornet's nest;

the environment which they should protect,

It lieth plunder'd and oppress'd.

Their furious rage may none restrain;

Already half the world's undone;

Abroad there still are kings who reign—

None thinks 'tis his concern, not one.

Environmental Tragedy. Scotland, 2021



Functional thinking 

and intuitive perception 

reveal facts about 

relationships and connections, 

that often appear to have 

nothing to do with each other.


The-Environmentalist


Natural fear is the body's own defense mechanism.


Implied fear destroys our soul.


Community strengthens and destroys fear.


The-Environmentalist


'Lack of Knowledge' or 'Greenwashing', the fear of the unknown:


The lie as the speech of truth

Hymn of praise 52, Naftali Herz Tur-Sinai


... are a constellation that, from the ancient path of history until today, have always led to a subservience of humanity to the “supposedly strong”, but ultimately to the rich.


To these responsible individuals I recommend :


Get rid of your free ticket to the pit of hell.


The-Environmentalist


Lateral thinking comes from the Latin word “latus – side”.

Lateral thinkers use their right brain to solve problems with

their thinking method, intellect, imagination, quick-wittedness, idea generation, creativity and knowledge.


Lateral thinkers who use their left brain with ingenuity and inventiveness act scientifically, analytically and logically.


Those who use both sides of the brain are a

“creative lateral thinker”.


The-Environmentalist


'Practice' and 'Theoretical Theories'

are a reflection of

good and evil.


The-Environmentalist


Hope

is

an illusion for the businessman,


for human beings it is an elixir of life,


for the believer to be a bright light.


The basis for God's choosing you is not in you,

but in grace!


The-Environmentalist


Look into the universe and you will see a light of countless stars. They reflect the immensity of the universe. These stars are unreachable, - but we can orient ourselves by them. And yet a single star decides our fate. The star of Bethlehem, - a signal from outer space. It led to the place where God became man, the birthplace of Jesus. Take your bearings from this star, and you will recognise the significance of this birth.


The Bible is the most topical book with fascinating answers. Without God, thinking is without purpose and meaning, trapped in an intellectual pride and supposed rational considerations.


Jesus admonished us as follows:


Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Colossians 2:8, King James Version


The-Environmentalist


In possibly only 25 years, we will face

unsolvable environmental problems,

everyone can foresee that.


Politicians of all parties show deep concern,

environment protectors demand immediate measures,

the press feels justified by environmental catastrophes.


Everyone knows everything,

but it's always the others who are guilty.


The-Environmentalist

Adage 1995


The Blue Positivism


a philosophic tendency,

stating authentic knowledge relating

to renewable energy, based on scientific knowledge.


The initial point should come from “positive” affirmation

based on strict scientific studies.


The-Environmentalist


The Tree of Life 

provides 

oxygen and food, 

is a 

dust filter and habitat for animals,

is our

wood supplier,

a

place of relaxation.

It is

inexhaustible

if

there were not men...


The-Environmentalist


Faith inspires hope,

the mind and senses generate feelings

and  influence our knowledge, including that suffering, poverty and hardship arise from selfishness and greed.

If action does not follow or arise from truth and justice,

then positive changes are not possible.


The-Environmentalist


The awareness of our natures and humanity

vanishes more and more.

Many people from different religions go out

every day to pray, philosophize, or simply live.

 

But almost all of them do not want to realise that the preservation of creation must be the highest priority.


The-Environmentalist


Our nature is deteriorating every day,

millions die of diseases and famine,

water supplies are diminishing or 

are being poisoned,

forests are vanishing,

animal species are disappearing…


What are the people in power really doing about these issues?


Making hugh profits at the world expense!


So, what can we do about it? 

The most frequent answer is

“Alone, I can‘t do anything” 


But this has to change; by joining forces.


The-Environmentalist


Man was created in, by and for our nature.


The creation of our blue planet was the first of a

new creation that repeats itself daily.


The first commandment for man was to preserve this creation.


Contrary and yet united (the first and the last) is the request:


 “In all you do, remember the end  of your life.”

Sirach 7:36


Actions we take right now can be our last activity. 

No one knows when he will die. 

Keep this in mind, and you will preserve nature.


The-Environmentalist


The inventor conceives,

thinks through and calculates his inventions.

He doesn't want to leave anything to chance and

puts himself in his inventions for a moment

as if he were a part of them.


The-Environmentalist


Analytical and logical thinking

lead to a circumspect reality.


The-Environmentalist


If we want to reach our goal, 

we have to swim against the current. 


If we are prepared to do so,

we can change the environment for the 

better in the long term. 


Words become deeds.


The-Environmentalist


It is our duty in this present life of Eon 

to preserve the nature on our blue planet. 

No child of nature would throw 

its garbage into its water reservoir. 


We are responsible for creating the environmental pollution,

 which we are now experiencing. 

Are we to hand over a 

destroyed planet to our children? 


Be to Be – The change must start now. 


The-Environmentalist


“No matter where 

my eyes look, my ears hear, and my heart feels; 

everywhere there is a 

state of indifference to people and the environment 

that wants to be freed 

from its forced isolation.“


The-Environmentalist


About 2/3 of our earth's surface is covered with water,

a single drop of water contains the controversial

knowledge of the entire human race.


The-Environmentalist


How often we put off the thought of 'death' until 'later';

I can think about it later,

when I have accomplished the most important things;

When I have made a career for myself, when I am secure,

in other words, when I have lived.


But there is no later, but there is a too late -

here the Bible is very clear:


And as it is appointed unto men once to die,

but after this the judgment

King James, Hebrews 9.27


The-Environmentalist
