The earth, the human body and the emotions and feelings are the perfect template to gauge living in the divine truth. The body is perfectly designed to stand via gravity, tension and countertension of forces. Yet, if there is too much force or too little in one direction the body will collapse or be injured. Forces that unbalance can come from any type of energy: phsyical, emotional or spiritual. The earth is the same, it is one giant body whose forces must remain in balance. If we abuse the trees or suck out the oil from the ground, imbalance and calamity are bound to follow.
