This contibution is projected in the context of intercultural encounter and dialogue because the relation to nature seems to differ typically from European to Asiatic culture: the first one intending more a rational and technical mastering and domination of nature, the second one rather a spiritual paticipation and integration in nature. In order to overcome actual problems of mankind, a cooperation of both intentions seems necessary -a task which will be dealt with in this essay.
