On Consciousness, the Life Force, Human Culture and Zoos

Today’s energies and archetypes encourage us to focus on the miracle of consciousness and the creative life force.

In response I share this five-minute video, which I had mixed reactions to, actually:  Universal Consciousness is the Life Force

I love the beginning with its focus on trees and plants, and accompanied only by the sound of running water and chirping birds. However, I found the footage of humans to be disturbingly out of place with the images of the rest of nature. This reminded me of movies such as Baraka and Koyanisqaatsi. Perhaps this is what the creator of the video intended.

I was also disturbed by the fact that most of the footage of animals appears to have been taken at a zoo. Only recently have I decided never to visit a zoo again.

Despite the above concerns, the video still inspired within me a heartfelt appreciation for the diversity of nature and power of the creative life force.

What do you think?
