Introduction
At the time of writing the world is being engulfed by increasingly cata-
clysmic manifestations of the disturbance and disruption of Nature's
otherwise orderly processes. From reports received almost daily,
both nationally and from around the world, we are increasingly forced to
become aware of certain life-threatening irregularities in the functioning of
Nature's household. Record catastrophes of increasing violence and extent
are being reported in almost every country; tornadoes, deluges, widespread
flooding, searing drought, earthquakes, unseasonable snowfalls and
extremes of temperature, all of which are associated with huge loss and suf-
fering. Strife and starvation are on the increase, coupled with a seemingly
endless emergence of hitherto unheard of diseases. The majority of these
existence-threatening events, these so-called 'natural disasters', are not of
Nature's making. On the contrary, they are directly attributable to the mis-
demeanours of humanity, the result of its arrogant repudiation or even total
ignorance of Nature's sublime laws and the subtle interactions between the
all-permeating interdependencies upon which all life is founded.
To this catalogue of climatic irregularity must be added the more directly
apparent man-made factors. The world's river systems and oceans are grad-
ually collapsing through pollution with chemicals. Fish and other aquatic
life are dying. Other creatures are being threatened with extinction or have
already become extinct. The environmental overload is being increased at a
precipitous rate through excessive land clearing, uncontrollable forest fires,
the reduction in the quality of light reaching the Earth's surface due to
atmospheric pollution, and the saturation of all living things, down to the
smallest cellular organisms, by the cocktail of electromagnetic emissions
known as electrosmog. This undoubtedly has a disturbing effect on the bio-
electric and biomagnetic information that controls the proper functioning of
the cells' delicate metabolism, which in aggregate leads to physical disorder
and abnormality. Not only does this affect our physical well-being, but also
our behaviour and mental abilities, thus inaugurating a decline in morals
and the capacity to think creatively. According to Viktor Schauberger a
brain, whose physical constitution and intellectual power has thus been
corrupted, would be incapable of comprehending Nature's causal dynamic
interdependencies.
As a result of humanity's misguided activity, the Earth is becoming
increasingly unstable; an instability that is also reflected in the growing
instability of human institutions. These alarming events, however, will con-
tinue to increase in scope and magnitude in a manner presently inconceiv-
able, unless effective remedial measures are instituted on a large scale as
soon as possible.
Since Nature's processes are interdependent, the total synergetic effect of the
present disruptive activities can reach a magnitude out of all apparent propor-
tion to the strength of the individual contributive stimuli. If the Earth is viewed
as a sphere with a diameter of 1 metre (1,000 millimetres), for example, then the
mesosphere, which largely defines our living space, would extend to a height of
about 10mm. As a living organism, the Earth breathes and pulsates. In common
with other living creatures, and symptomatic of a sick or diseased condition,
physical convulsions cannot be ruled out. Therefore, viewed at this scale, even a
barely perceptible ripple 1 mm high swirling around the globe is not inconceiv-
able. In real terms, however, this would signify a tidal wave about 6.5km (4
miles) high. Such a tsunami would mean oblivion.
It is necessary to write this down to emphasise the precarious position in
which we find ourselves today, so as to provoke a greater interest in rectifying
matters urgently. If we wish to reverse this downward course, and to do so sus-
tainably, then we must learn to feel Nature once more; to harken to her voice
and to take heed of her subtle movements. Some of this natural awareness, now
long forgotten, we must learn from the very beginning. We need, as Viktor says
"to perceive the world not as an action, but as a reaction" 1 , for only thus will we be
able to arrive at the true causes of things and the reasons for the present parlous
state of the world. While some causes are slowly being discovered, the underly-
ing reasons, which are the most important and have the greatest influence on
outcomes, have so far not been addressed.
But how have we arrived at this precarious situation? In the 16th century,
before the development of science and technology, people were generally
more attuned to the cycles, pulsations and subtler movements of Nature's
energies. With few technical aids and artefacts, it was a more organic society
and more intimately embedded in the natural world than modern humani-
ty. People had a far more sensitive awareness for the events and movements
of natural energies. With the gradual rise of science, this close connection
with natural phenomena and their perceived causes was increasingly lost as
the materialistically based methodology of science grew in scope and appli-
cation. Science only interested itself in what it deemed to be the physical
