New priestly rituals must take into account the rituals of every bit of creation,
the sanctuaries of diverse bioregions,
and the community of all creation.
Nature lives a priestly life
self-giving, regenerating
Not offering something for the sake of others,
but offering herself for the life of all
This priesthood is re-creational and celebratory;
decay and sacrifices bring forth or sustain life,
new life shows joyous colours and songs.
If nature had no spirit, how would it be inspired to offer?
how would it call all children for celebration
Together nature has a body, all in the world,
together it has a spirit which shows in diverse forms.
Sacrifice, in communion but in unique forms of every individual.
One shall not neglect the sacrifice of the least of these children,
if done, it is against the wisdom of nature, and the whole body suffers.
if one species suffers, it is the pain of all
if a species go extinct, it is a measure of death for all.

Be spiritual as the nature is spiritual...
