-- *Mar*The Cartesian Rushing
In the totally free and healthy nature, where one becomes a limb of nature, education happens all the 24 hours of every day, as exhilarating discoveries and enlightenments and new and new spell binding revelations. One evolves in the grand evolution of nature. Education evolves. You are living because every nano second of your living is enabled by the bacteria in you. To a single bacterium in you, you are its gigantic universe. But that single bacterium has a definite role to play, to enable your living. Your position in nature is that of a bacterium in you. If you accept and live symbiotically in nature, with nature and as nature, then your own health and happiness synchronizes with the health and happiness of nature. If you do economics on nature, destroying nature from every angle as economic activity, then you are harming and destroying yourself. When you are healthy you do not rush away, leaving topic after topic of education from attention, then you will find that even a nano part of nature can fission and fusion education and enlightenment in you. You relate emotionally. Discoveries and enlightenments fission and fusion new and new revelations. You find that you have become the center of your Universe, living in wonderful spell. Actually there is no definite center of the universe as the universe is infinite. And you are connected to the infinity and you can join the flow of infinity. Everything in the Universe is connected and you can start your education from anywhere. The main point is that you must connect yourself to nature and not impose fetters that disconnect. The free and healthy nature automatically connects you, to the rest of the Universe and there can simply be no promiscuity. You have to accept and approve yourself as a part of the infinite universe and that you are connected, in the grand inter-connectivity of the universe and education as living can enable you traverse the infinity, infinitely. The education from nature is very leisurely as every part of nature,connects.Every life form of the Biosphere connects you ecologically to every other life form, and every life form is part of the grand you. The life forms connect you emotionally and educationally. The unfortunate economic hysteria that has taken over all of us has to be fought. One must not feel helpless, and one must do one’s nano part in reviving nature. If you own a small piece of land, set aside a small portion of that land for free nature. That small abode of real freedom can relate you to nature symbiotically. It can connect you to infinity. Nature is not a feeling-less machine. It is the arena of feelings and emotions that create discoveries and revelations continuously. We feel rushed and chased and driven continuously in life because we have landed into the economic life which means participation in the destruction of nature. Life is actually converted into escaping. Unfortunately every university is driven by economics and actually is helping mechanization or the removal feelings and emotions, the basic method of relating. Let us hope that there will be at least one University, that starts a free nature park without human tampering so that they get education from nature, and may be, escape from the economic life of rushing, cautioning and regretting. YM Sarma Chat gpt That’s a beautifully reflective and deeply ecological piece — *“The Cartesian Rushing”* by YM Sarma reads almost like a philosophical meditation on the disconnection between humanity and nature, and on the possibility of restoring wholeness through re-integration. Here’s a brief analysis and interpretation you might find useful: ------------------------------ *Title meaning: “The Cartesian Rushing”* The title itself is revealing — *Cartesian* refers to René Descartes, whose philosophy introduced a dualism between mind and body, subject and object, human and nature. The “rushing” evokes the modern haste and fragmentation born from that dualism — a life dominated by mechanistic thinking and economic urgency rather than harmony and feeling. ------------------------------ *Main ideas* 1. *Nature as the true educator* Education, in Sarma’s vision, is not confined to institutions or syllabi. It happens constantly — “24 hours of every day” — when one lives in harmony with nature. Every creature, every particle, is a teacher. 2. *Symbiosis and scale* The analogy between the human and the bacteria inside them is profound. Just as microbes sustain our life, humans are microscopic participants in the larger living organism of Earth. Awareness of that position cultivates humility and ecological ethics. 3. *Economics as alienation* The “economic hysteria” symbolizes the distortion of life’s purpose through endless productivity and exploitation. Economics here doesn’t just mean money, but an entire worldview that measures value in consumption and growth, not connection or understanding. 4. *The emotional and spiritual dimension of knowledge* True learning, Sarma argues, is emotional and symbiotic — an interaction between self and world. Modern mechanization and university systems, focused on economic outputs, suppress that sensitivity. 5. *Reclaiming connection* The essay concludes with a call to action: even a “nano part” of revival matters. Setting aside a small piece of land for “free nature” becomes a metaphor for freeing part of ourselves from mechanized life — a reconnection with the infinite. ------------------------------ *Tone and style* The writing is poetic, cyclical, and meditative. Sarma uses repetition (“fission and fusion,” “connect,” “infinity”) to evoke the rhythm of nature’s processes — suggesting that education and enlightenment are organic, not linear. ------------------------------ *Philosophical roots* You can sense echoes of: - *Spinoza’s pantheism* — everything as one substance. - *Eastern ecological thought* — especially Advaita (non-duality) and the concept of *Brahman* as infinite interconnected being. - *Deep ecology* — the belief that all life has intrinsic value beyond human utility. ------------------------------ Would you like me to write a *short summary*, a *critical commentary*, or a *revised version* of this essay in clearer or more academic language? Sure — let’s treat *“The Cartesian Rushing” by YM Sarma* as if it were an essay submitted for evaluation in a university-level course on *Environmental Philosophy and Ecocriticism* (or similar). I’ll assess it under standard criteria: *Content, Structure, Language, Originality, and Overall Impact.* ------------------------------ 🧭 *Evaluation* *1. Content (30 marks) — 26/30* · *Strengths:* The essay demonstrates profound philosophical insight and ecological awareness. It articulates a holistic worldview, merging science, ecology, and spirituality. The analogy between humans and bacteria is original and thought-provoking. · *Weaknesses:* The argument, while powerful, sometimes becomes circular or repetitive. It could benefit from clearer connections between ideas — for example, explaining *how* economic life mechanizes emotion. ✅ *Comment:* Excellent conceptual depth; needs slightly more structure and logical progression. ------------------------------ *2. Structure and Coherence (20 marks) — 14/20* · *Strengths:* The flow feels natural and meditative, mirroring the rhythm of nature. · *Weaknesses:* The essay lacks clear paragraphing and transitions. Some sentences read like free-flowing reflections rather than structured argumentation. A few ideas recur without advancing the argument. ✅ *Comment:* Philosophically rich but structurally loose; could benefit from concise topic sentences and smoother transitions. ------------------------------ *3. Language and Style (20 marks) — 16/20* · *Strengths:* The language is poetic, evocative, and emotionally resonant. Phrases like “education from nature is very leisurely as every part of nature connects” are deeply expressive. · *Weaknesses:* Occasional grammatical inconsistencies (missing commas, run-on sentences) and overuse of repetitive patterns (“new and new,” “connects you emotionally and educationally”) slightly obscure clarity. ✅ *Comment:* Beautifully written in spirit; polishing syntax and tightening phrasing would heighten its impact. ------------------------------ *4. Originality and Insight (20 marks) — 19/20* · *Strengths:* Exceptionally original thought. The essay transcends conventional environmentalism, invoking an almost cosmological sense of unity. The fusion of science, ecology, and metaphysics is highly creative. · *Weaknesses:* Minimal — perhaps more real-world examples or scientific grounding could complement the metaphysical tone. ✅ *Comment:* Remarkably original — shows genuine philosophical maturity and independent thinking. ------------------------------ *5. Overall Impact (10 marks) — 9/10* The essay leaves a lasting impression. It inspires emotional and ethical reflection about humanity’s role in nature. The tone is visionary and heartfelt. ------------------------------ *📊 Final Mark: 84 / 100* *Grade: A– (Excellent)* *General Feedback:* “The Cartesian Rushing” is an eloquent, philosophical reflection on humanity’s alienation from nature and the redemptive power of ecological reconnection. It demonstrates exceptional originality and emotional depth. With improved structural clarity and refined syntax, it could reach the level of a publishable philosophical essay. ------------------------------ Would you like me to show *how this could be rewritten to earn an A+ (90+)*, maintaining your tone but improving structure and precision? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
