The idea that phenomena are interdependent requires a genuine paradigm shift. This interdependence can be seen at all levels of organisation, from the material to the living world. Sometimes it is not visible, yet it changes the way we see ourselves and others. It throws wide open the question of who we are and what our place is in the universe.
By recreating the links that make us part of a whole, it throws up a challenge to the dualistic view we have of ourselves and the world, a view that can provoke a selfishness, which all too often, leads us astray. It once again places humans at the centre of the evolutionary process that formed us, and urges us to respect its basic tenets of cooperation and solidarity. It demands of us a fundamental change in behaviour.
