THE PERCEPTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT怎么样

我就去找个Animic society生活 这对我来说跟出家差不多 书写得太他妈文艺了 文艺到我在做reading都能跑来标记我读了这本书 看得我几近流泪 Take Totemism,animism and the depiction of animal for example.He describes totemism as follows:"Human beings and other creatures come and go:they emerge from the land,live out their time,and are reincorporated into when they die.But the land is always there,and will continue to bring forth new life so long as those who dwell upon it--by fulfilling their custodial responsibilities towards it,or ‘look after’ it in the proper way--do not allow its powers to be dissipated." Basically he's saying the difference between totemism and animism lies in the fact that in totemic system there is always a "source of power"--namely land,which acts as an essence--whereas in the animic system the relationship(between nature and man) is dialogical,animated beings are engendered by each other.See quote"Thus life,in the animic society,is not an emanation but a generation of being,in a world that is not pre-ordained but incipient,forever on the verge of the actual."
