Deep Ecology Teacher and Warrior - John Seed

from Crossing the Boundary - with Alan Levin · host Alan Levin

John Seed is an Australian environmentalist and director of the Rainforest Information Centre, a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the protection of the Earth's remaining rainforests in partnership with the indigenous people and local communities who depend on them.. He is also a prominent figure in the deep ecology movement and co-creator, with Joanna Macy, of the Council of All Beings, and other re-earthing processes.I highly recommend his Book, Thinking Like a Mountain, published in 1988, which is now available online. You can download a free pdf copy from his website https://www.rainforestinformationcentre.org/john_seed_articles_essays which contains other writings and talks by John. It will take you deeper into the experiential awareness of our inter-connectedness with nature.In our conversation, John shares the influences of his parents and the shifts in consciousness that brought him to his deep ecological awareness. Starting with lsd and the counter-culture, he found himself in a direct engagement with the voice of the forest that took him onto his path of partnership with Mother Earth in saving the rainforests and more.
