생태적 삶과 장소, 그리고 지리산

Abstract

This era that science and technology dominate is an era of the homeland loss, an era of the residence loss, an era of the place loss. That is because everything that exists are in a situation to offer their energy as one ‘parts’. So everything that exists are not in their original place. This situation was due to the Western representational thought. That is because the representational thought of features of ‘desire’ want to dominate all beings by standing in front of everything that exists. That is because the representational thought can lose the uniqueness of everything that exists. If so, what is required of us in these times? It is to give up the representational thought and desire, and it is that human live intimately with all the things through detachment. By the way at this time the ecological life appears to us. Of course, the ecological life as natural friendly life is to living in a place. But what is the place? The place as collecting everything that exists means a place where everything that exists are uniquely revealing of themselves. But this place is a homeland immediately. That is because the homeland as place that humans living is a place where human and all things of non-human is living by reveal their own unique look. However, there may be Mt. Jirisan this place? There may be a place. That is because Mt. Jirsan is a place where the nature is manifest, Mt. Jirisan is a place where the ‘everywhere-world’ is revealing itself, Mt. Jirisan is a place where everything that exists reveals their appearance without losing their uniqueness in the ‘place of the meeting (everywhere-world)’. And that is because Mt. Jirisan is a place where humans want to live, a place where humans want to climb at least once. In fact, that is because Mt. Jirisan is a mountain where the Joseon Dynasty scholar want to climbing, Mt. Jirisan is a birthplace of feng-shui of South Korea and a mountain that boasts a variety of mountain village-landscapes through its feng-shui, and Mt. Jirisan is a mountain which care the chunghakdong(an ideal place). However, such a place, that is, Mt. Jirisan is one of the places. If so, Mt. Jirisan will be a place such as homeland where humans are resident, and Mt. Jirisan will be the perfect place to enjoy an ecological life.
