    Ancient Indian Rushis have given our society a Mantra to always live by – The whole world is one family – वसुधैव कुटुम्बकम्!

    Now modern scientists are realizing WHY they said so…

    I love how this is putting contemporary scientific research into art experiences which utilize contemporary technologies and the desired language of the mainstream.
    The cynic in me is wondering how the media will monetize this new experience. Gaming perhaps. However, if this super important message gets across, that is good enough for me.
    Those of us who already understand and value these systems are more fearful than ever that our bubble of denial, as a species, blinds us to the extent of the damage we are inflicting every minute of every day on our world. Anything that can bring an understanding of that pain to more and more of our population has to be sanctified as a plea for mercy but also as an essential act of self preservation.

    That’s a brilliant perspective of art. Knew all the way about all the scientific facts listed in this speech but just couldn’t feel anything before. So thanks for introducing this angle to us and usher in the emotional resonance. The sentence touches me the most is we’re as much trees as trees are us or we are all but an extension from one another. Now I feel quite weird like the bond is really there even though it’s there.
