Abstract
"La ecologia o ciencia de los recursos (limitados) de la tierra no dara sus frutos, como se esta viendo, mientras se reduzca a una ciencia pragmatica que busca una explotacion "blanda" de las riquezas naturales y legitima la dominacion del hombre hacia el mundo. Ademas, ya nos estamos dando cuenta que el maltrato de la naturaleza se esta volviendo en contra del mismo ser humano y, por tanto, se hace urgente un cambio de conciencia que le permita recordar que su salvacion se da con la salvacion del mundo, que la liberacion es de la creacion entera. La intuicion cosmoteandrica de Raimon Panikkar es una clave para lograr este cambio de conciencia porque, de una parte, revela la dimension cosmica del hombre (el es tierra, es cosmos y es naturaleza) y, de otra parte, revela las dimensiones humana y divina del cosmos. Esta nocion no fragmentaria de la realidad da lugar a la ecosofia, sabiduria de y sobre la tierra, una manera diferente de comprender la relacion Hombre-Mundo sin olvidar su relacion Dios. Asi, se puede reconocer que el ser humano es un mikrokosmos (no un "pequeño mundo", sino un reflejo del mundo) y el mundo es "cuerpo de Dios", sujeto y lugar de su presencia." "The ecology or science of the (limited) earth resources will not bare its fruits, as it can be seen today, if it reduces itself to a pragmatic science looking for a "soft" exploitation of natural resources and legitimates the domination of the world by mankind. Moreover, we are now discovering how the ill-treatment towards nature is backfiring against the human being and, therefore, it is urgent to change his consciousness to make him remember that his salvation goes through the liberation of the creation as a whole. The cosmoteandric intuition of Raimon Panikkar is a key to achieve this change of consciousness because, on one hand, he reveals us the human cosmic dimension (as man is earth, cosmos and nature) and, on the other hand, he reveals us the human and divine dimension of the cosmos. This notion that takes reality as a whole is seen as ecosophy, meaning wisdom on earth and from the earth, a new way to understand the relationship Man-Cosmos without forgetting its relation to God. That is the way which enables us to acknowledge that the human being is a mikrokosmos (not a "little world", but a "reflex" of the world) and that the world is "body of God", the subject and the place of his presence."
