In this text dedicated to Ecosophy, to that wisdom of the Earth that man has unfortunately forgotten to listen to, Panikkar offers a global intercultural-hermeneutical framework with the purpose to establish a balanced relationship between the self and Nature. The danger today does not come from the Gods or from Nature, but from an artifact and out of control world that has unbalanced the whole Nature. Today, more than in any age of the past, different cultures need each other. No culture alone - and religions, philosophies and natural sciences are cultural phenomena - can claim to provide the answer to the problems of existence.
