Closer contact with nature blesses us with spiritual experiences which “naturally and spiritually” engender within us a desire for less material goods (since the pleasure of contacting “holy life” gives us much more contentment than any superfluous goods ever could).
​
Author’s Comment: Getting in contact with nature means getting in contact with life’s mystery and the wonders which make our existence possible. Appreciating nature’s gifts to us (a sense of awe, fresh air, clean water, healthy soils, everything necessary for us to live) and reflecting adoringly of her incredible immensity instills within us a sense of contentment unmatched by human ingenuity.
