Abstract:
The prime concern of this article is to unfold the eco-conscience of Vedic people through the Vedic text. It is to trace out their environmental and ecological awareness. The article aims at perceiving their eco-spiritual consciousness. This study becomes significant to analyze the Vedic literature through naturalistic perspective and it assists the contemporary eco-campaigners to address the eco-peril of this planet. In order to achieve this objective, this study uses the qualitative research paradigm mostly on the thematic interpretation. It has amalgamated the essence of some of the disciplines of naturalistic school of thought. The core conclusion of them is incorporated within the frame of eco-spirituality that becomes the eco-tool to analyze the text. The primary text is the Bhūmi Sūkta (the hymn to the Earth) from the Atharvaveda. After making the eco-reading upon the hymn, it is quite evident that the Vedic people were aware of the biophysical and temporal aspects of the Earth, and the earth ethics was their life principle for coexistence. The conclusion of this study is that the Vedic people had cherished spiritual ecology for due existence of living and non-living things on the earth.

Abstract:
Abstrak Tulisan ini mencoba untuk menyempurnakan konsep triple bottem line dengan menyusun kembali relasi antara dimensi triple P dan spiritualitas, yang kemudian dinamakan circle bottom line. Circle bottom line mencakup tiga dimensi yakni people (sosial), planet (lingkungan), profit (ekonomi) yang dilandasi dimensi spiritualitas dalam pengukurannya. Dimensi spiritualitas yang digunakan yakni spirit religius. Dalam hal ini adalah konsep Eco-Theology Islam yang mencakup tiga prinsip, yakni tawhīd (kesatuan seluruh makhluk), amānah-khalīfah (kejujuran-kepemimpinan), dan ākhirah (tanggung jawab). Relasi antar dimensi circle bottom line yang berbasis prinsip-prinsip Islam pada Eco-Theology Islam kemudian dijadikan sebagai dasar penerapan akuntansi sosial-lingkungan. Abstract This paper tries to refine triple bottem line concept by rearranging the relations between triple P dimensions and spirituality, which is then called circle bottom line. Circle bottom line includes three dimensions, namely people (social), planet (environment), profit (economy) based on the dimensions of spirituality in measurement. The dimension of spirituality used is religious spirit. In this case the concept of Eco-Theology of Islam includes three principles, namely tawhīd (unity of all beings), amānah-khalīfah (honesty-leadership), and ākhirah (responsibility). The inter-dimensional relationship of circle bottom line based on Islamic principles in the Eco-Theology of Islam is then used as the basis for the application of social-environmental accounting.

Abstract:
Spirituality connotes praxis informed by religious or faith convictions. This can transform the individual and society at large. Christian spirituality is centered on how a person’s relationship with the God of Jesus Christ informs and directs one’s approach to existence and engagement with the world. The ecosystem concerns humanity and relationship with it is invariably influenced by faith or religious informed praxis. The reality of climate change is convincing many people that humankind’s common homeland needs to be treated with care and respect if created beings are to have a congenial habitat now and in the future. This article avers that Christian spirituality can contribute to eco-friendly behavior through re-formation of the behavior of people and emboldening their goodwill as regards the responsibility of all towards the care of the earth. Finally, this research proffers a three-fold model of eco-spirituality - scriptural, self-control, and sacramental approaches to the earth – as a contribution towards stemming the tide of ecological assaults on creation. Textual analysis is the method used in this research.

Abstract:
Purpose In the wake of growing environmental issues, active public and corporate interventions are inevitable to reduce the negative impact of human activities on global environments. Building on the Norm Activation Model and Value-Belief-Norm Theory, the purpose of this paper is to report on research exploring consumers’ eco-socially conscious behaviours related to the choice and use of personal cars in a developing country, Pakistan. Design/methodology/approach To test a moderated-mediation model of environmental values, perceived consumer effectiveness (PCE), spirituality and eco-socially conscious consumer behaviours (ESCCBs), data were collected from 447 customers of three automobile manufacturing firms from eight different cities of Pakistan. The data collection was undertaken by using a self-administered questionnaire based on key themes in the literature. Findings Analysis of the data revealed that altruistic and egoistic values were negatively while biospheric values were positively associated with eco-ESCCB. PCE mediated all the relationships and spirituality moderated the mediated paths. Originality/value Although there are several models that explain purchase and use of personal cars in isolation or in conjunction with other general pro-environmental behaviours, an explanation of the eco-social aspects of purchase and use of personal cars in one theoretical model is rare to find. Second, among the many theoretical predictors and intervening factors explaining several pro-environmental behaviours, some culture-specific factors have been ignored – spirituality being one of them. This study contributes to the body of knowledge related to pro-environmental behaviours by conceptualising and testing the impact of spirituality in a moderated-mediation model.

Abstract:
Contemporary spirituality often bears the stamp of an eco-discourse. It is characteristic of post-spiritual practices that there is a blurring of the boundaries between the sacred and profane and in this sphere, influenced by the eco-consciousness, nature and the body can be sacralised. In this article the author looks into environmentalism as a current in spirituality. First spirituality as a concept is discussed. Second follows a section on aspects of contemporary environmentalism, dealing with new social movements, new identity and the main directions of environmentalism. After that, the distinction between environmentally motivated spirituality and spir­itually motivated environmentalism is presented. At the end there is a short discussion of post-secular issues concerning environmentalism. Worldviews are no longer necessarily either religious or secular, but may also combine elements of rational secularity with enchanted spirituality. The blurring of the boundaries between secular and religious views and motives occur, as well as the separation of mind and body, rationality and belief, and human and nature.

News about climate change in the phenomenon of Global Warming worth seriuos considerations. Although these events are difficult to imagine by rural communities, in fact the phenomenon has resulted in farmers experiencing crop failure and can hardly predict cropping time. Apart from this phenomenon, environmental problems also occur at the foot of Mount Merapi, Sleman, Yogyakarta. Illegal sand mining in residential areas has resulted in a shrinking of the plant population and impared the land use, resulting in a decrease both in the groundwater and surface water level. Environmental damage starts from the split of people’s perspectives as a result of the emerging separations between humanism and ecology, knowledge and values, and the body and spirituality. Pencak silat, as an indigenous Indonesian martial art that is subject to harmony between humans and the natural environment on which they live, can arise the awareness of local people to reconsider habits that are harmful both to the environment and nature. Integrated Space Design as the aesthetic manifestation of Eco Art, is an artwork created to address environmental problems that occur in the foot area of Mount Merapi namely by creating a space that bridges the interactions between humans, between humans and their artificial environment, and between humans and their surrounding nature, by using bamboo plants as its main media, and silat spirituality as an inspiration in order to sustain the living power of the local community, both ecologically and spiritually.

Abstract: In this paper the researcher discusses about the missiological discourse happening today, the researcher strongly believes that the, focus of eco -justice must be laid on the paradigm shift from the human to the earth. In this shift, the earth is the starting point and not the human. The human is only a part of the earth. Thus, the entire creation of God, the human and the nonhuman will become the subjects in the mission of God. The Oikos of life is dominated, exploited, manipulated and destroyed. People live together with all other living beings, and all the living beings are mutually interdependent. The eco -justice mission engagement of the Church is to raise up all living beings as a sovereign subject, interdependent to carry out politics of life promoting security, justice and peace. The mission movements of the Church need to work for profound renewal of the ecological stewardship and spirituality of integral life. Life-centered vision is a key component of mission.[1]Recapturing the life-centeredness in the variety of religious and cultural experiences is at the root of our understanding of God, people and the humankind as well as of our spirituality and just norms that promote eco -justice.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTToday environmental damage has become an alarming issue. Such a problem also occurs at Sleman located in the foot of Mount Merapi, Yogyakarta. Illegal sand mining around settlements has resulted in shrinking plant populations and damage to land use, which has resulted in decreased groundwater and surface water. Environmental damage begins with fragmentation in people’s worldview resulting from the emerging humanism-ecology, knowledge-values, and the body-spirituality separations. Pencak silat, as an indigenous Indonesian martial art that is subject to the harmony between humans and the natural environment in which they live, can inspire the awareness of local people to reconsider the habits harmful to the environment and nature. The Integrated Space Design as an aesthetic manifestation of Eco-Art is an artwork created to address environmental problems occurring in the foothills of Mount Merapi by creating a space that bridges the interactions between humans, between humans and their artificial environment, and between humans and the surrounding natural environment by using bamboo plants as the main media, and silat spirituality as the primary inspiration the local community’s capacity of living, both ecologically and spiritually.

Abstract:
At a peripheral glance the collective action of a social movement group creates a perception of rational and homogenous internal group identity. This fa??ade has led some social movement theorists to take for granted the internal cohesiveness of the groups they are studying. Yet this emphasis on the rationality and structure of collective action over-simplifies the complex and dynamic interactions that occur in the construction of individual and collective identities. Accordingly, the constructivist New Social Movement theoretical paradigm actively eschews these misleading assumptions, instead granting primacy to the study of the reflexive, complex and dynamic interactions that occur in the construction of individual and collective identities. By employing the tools provided by New Social Movement theory my study unravels one such under-researched identity, namely the diverse and multifaceted ??eco-spiritual?? identity. The rich narratives of actors who consider themselves spiritual and are environmental activists are analysed through a case study of the Wilderness Acton Group, a collective within The Wilderness Society, Sydney. Analysis of the fieldwork data informs a theoretical and empirical understanding of social movements with regard to the negotiation and construction of political goals; trajectory and rejuvenation; individual movement motivation and participation; ongoing construction of group identity and solidarity; emotional commitment; action event selection; and group rituals, activism and practices

Abstract:
Thesis advisor: Boyd Taylor Coolman
This dissertation offers a new systematic interpretation and retrieval of the theology and spirituality of the 12th century master Hugh of St. Victor, an interpretation centered on the Triune LORD’s unifying and reforming work in history in the three days of Jesus Christ’s dying, burial, and rising. Seen from the vantage of Hugh’s treatise On the Three Days, these ‘three days’ of Jesus Christ’s ‘Passover’ are, for Hugh, the plenary revelation of the Trinity in history – and so an eschatological disclosure – and are at once the soteriological and spiritual center of his theology. The work of the dissertation is, in part one, to explore the objective polarity of the LORD’s work in the three days. This entails an in-depth treatment of Hugh’s christology, including the currently contested and historically misconstrued territory of Hugh’s doctrine of the hypostatic union. Moreover, the project brings out the integral connections between Hugh’s doctrine of the hypostatic union and his soteriology of the re-formation of all of history in the three days. This triadic soteriological scheme in turn correlates to three degrees of theological language and of Triune self-revelation in history. The task of part two of the dissertation is to study the subjective polarity of Spirit-enabled human participation in Christ’s dying, burial, and rising. Hugh’s spirituality and practice of theology are explored as means of human re-formation unto wonder, wisdom, and charity – in short, unto mystical and ultimately eschatological union with God – through participation in the paschal mystery. These chapters thus systematize and explore aspects of Hugh’s thought as diverse as the communal formation at the Abbey of St. Victor, humility, study of the liberal arts and memorization of Scripture, theological meditation, allegorical and tropological biblical interpretation, works of charity, and the responsive eros of Hugh’s contemplative mysticism, all as means of sharing, by turns, in Christ’s dying, burial, and rising. The third and final part of the dissertation attempts a contemporary practice of Hugonian theology. It places the Hugonian theology retrieved in parts one and two in the context of the reception of Laudato Si’ in order to offer a christological and mystical companion to Pope Francis’ encyclical. It argues that the ‘ecological conversion’ for which Pope Francis calls, as a subjective participation in Christ, implicitly depends upon a robust enough objective christology to make the summons to particularly ‘ecological’ conversion coherent and compelling. Hence the contemporary eco-christologies of Sallie McFague and Celia Deane-Drummond are studied and adjudicated. Finally, on the basis of the gains accrued in the course of those eco-christological engagements, a renewed Hugonian christology and soteriology is proposed as a framework for and aid to the spiritual and moral implementation of Laudato Si’. Ecological conversion is itself, most properly, a process of human re-formation in the three days of Jesus Christ’s Passover, and hence practical efforts to teach and implement Laudato Si’ benefit from a Hugonian theological and spiritual approach

Abstract:
The literature of Integrated Water Resource Management argues collaborative watershed partnerships between state agencies and civil society are crucial for water governance. They bring stakeholders together to facilitate dialogue, reduce competition and negotiate on complex water related issues. However in newly independent states, like the Philippines, local state agencies are still struggling to adopt collaborative governance approaches that offer stronger stakeholder engagement, due to poorly implemented decentralizing policies, resource constraints and a lack of political will. Thus, the need to identify and explore alternative institutional arrangements that are capable and willing to support local government is the first step towards developing culturally appropriate and feasible solutions within the Philippine context. Using the Angat River Basin, located in Bulacan, Central Luzon, Philippines, as the focal area for investigation, this research presents a shift in thinking about mainstream watershed group-agency partnerships. As such, the research suggests that the Philippine Catholic Church, a key faith-based organization possesses the necessary skills, experience and trust to facilitate and support a potential partnership for the 63,000 hectare Angat River Basin. The findings from this research, which were collected using a qualitative multi-method approach, highlight how the Diocese of Malolos and the wider Philippine Catholic Church are not only actively responding to environmental advocacy and management, but that their strengths of transformational leadership, political acuity and moral authority compensate for the deficiencies of the local government.

Since ancient times, Eastern and Western cultural thoughts and most religions advocated nature. They regard nature as the gift for human beings, granted by the Creator or by Heaven. Returning to the nature of Ecological Spirituality is not a new way of spirituality created today. For example, in the middle Ages, there were many thinkers proclaiming a similar spirituality in the Catholic religion. Facing a deteriorating global ecological environment, many ecologists think that religion could contribute to the peace of the world and the ecological system of the world. Thus, the writer focused on the Catholic religion as the research subject, and applied literature analysis and historical research to investigate the thoughts and practice of a Catholic Ecological Spirituality. The investigation targets of this thesis: first, does the Catholic Church, which regards spirituality highly, also highly advocate ecological spirituality? Secondly, what is the origin of eco-spirituality and how does it develop in the Catholic Church? Thirdly, what is the solution nowadays when facing the difficulty of the practice of eco-spirituality in the Catholic Church? Finally, does Catholic ecological spirituality inspire today’s Taiwanese Catholic Church and society? The writer hopes to provide some useful reference for the Catholic Church and other religious spiritual groups by doing this research. Through the research, the writer found that Catholic ecological spirituality contains three dimensions and four aspects. Heaven, Earth and the Human being are the three dimensions. And the four aspects are to reconcile with Heaven, nature, others and oneself. First of all, the writer investigated the Bible and the Catholic social teachings and found the ecological morality presented that there were ecological spiritual thoughts in the traditional Catholic Church. Secondly, in the spiritual history of the Catholic Church, there were many religionists living in reclusion in the desert and the forest with a simple ecological spiritual life, in communion with Heaven and Earth. Thirdly, using Taiwanese Catholic Church as an example, the writer investigated present practice of ecological spiritual thoughts and realized the practice was integrated with the environmental protection works, and finally with social concerns. However, the present practice has its difficulty. The writer hopes to find solutions in the future, in order to apply Catholic unique ecological thoughts concretely, to benefit this island and to further contribute to the world.

Abstract Today's global environment has deteriorated, causing all sort of natural disasters. Many environmental scholars have found that religious education seems to have a greater impetus to ecological conservation. The priest of Society of Jesus, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) was a very influential thinker of the twentieth century. His understanding of spirituality is not only focused on the inner perception of the individual, but on the integration of man and the earth. During his lifetime, he strived to transform himself into a model of ecological spirituality. This thesis focuses on the eco-spirituality of Teilhard de Chardin. The writer uses literary analysis and historical research methods to explore “ the eco-spirituality” (or ecological spirituality) model of Teilhard de Chardin in depth. First, the writer examines when the ideas of eco-spirituality begin to sprout during the development of western ecological thinking, and how the spirituality of the Catholic Church developed its ecological spiritual thought. Secondly, the writer explores the unique and personal ecological spiritual thought of Teilhard de Chardin, which was deeply influenced by the concepts of the Catholic religion. How did Teilhard de Chardin practice his spiritual thought during a long and arduous archaeological career? How does his theory relate to Nature? Finally, it analyzes the implementation dilemma of eco-spirituality in Taiwan, and delve into an examination on Catholic ecological spiritual thought. Lastly, we take a look into the future of mankind with Teilhard de Chardin’s ecological and spiritual perspective. The writer finds that Teilhard de Chardin had observed the connection between human beings and phenomena of the Nature. The ecological spirituality advocated by him has a transcendental spirit that can be elevated closer towards the Sacred. Considering the negative impacts of the rapidly changing material society and the deteriorating natural environment, this has epoch-making significance which is inspiring and demonstrative to Christians. In view of the predicament encountered in Taiwan's current religious and ecological education, we have the means to find a suitable solution from Teilhard de Chardin’s ecological devotional model. The writer hopes that with this thesis, the Catholics and even Christians in Taiwan will be able to use as a reference to aid their spiritual devotion. The writer also hopes that religions on both sides of the strait can be further heightened with eco-spirituality. To take this as a guide to overcome the challenges of environmental protection work in our society.

Abstract:
Knowledge-based civilizations are considered as new socio-philosophical phenomena, the complexity of conceptualizing their initial attitudes is shown. The article substantiates the need to develop a theory of civilizational coding as a mechanism for the formation of new knowledge that affects the socioeconomic and spiritual and moral development of civilizations, the acceleration of economic growth of states, the increase in the level of spirituality of a person and society in the conditions of challenges, risks and bifurcations. An attempt has been made to create a civilizational paradigm of concrete actions based on the acquisition and use of new knowledge, allowing to determine the meanings and guidelines for the development of various events, to identify the causes that determine certain negative phenomena.

Abstract:
Abstract Fictional spaces produced with multidisciplinary research using improving technologiescreate settings that provoke new questions and have diff erent answers. This comes about bybroadening the horizons in virtual space studies, space concept, design, and experience. Evaluatingvirtual space as a layer of reality represents architectural space that belongs to the physical world.The principal factors that form the physicality of a space, its shape and content, are related tocultural, public, societal, perceptual, and intellectual codes. The space concept can be explained asa physical concept. In the sense of human interaction with space, the feelings it elicits, perceptualfactors, both in the subjective and abstract dimensions, that can be described as feelings, and 3Dphysicality. Spaces designed and produced for human use can be perceived diff erently and meanother things to diff erent people through human–space interactions. Perceiving, interpreting, anddescribing a space is a complex process that can only occur by experiencing it.Although virtual reality emerged as a simulation of physical space, there are increasing attempts toform an emotional and physical connection to such spaces today. New technologies used to createnew spaces and descriptions such as virtual reality, virtual space, cyberspace, and hybrid space arearticulated as new layers within the spatial memory accumulated to date.Virtual reality technologies, which can be explained as an interface between humans and machinesand describe diff erent life systems, give one the feeling of being in another space. Although thesespaces are virtual, they can be related to the space concept as they can be experienced and give thefeeling of being somewhere. These settings, which present multi-dimensional spatial experiences bytaking humans into a digital reality, are created using computer support and are experienced usingvarious electronic tools. These settings in which human and machine, organic and non-organicentities meet are also crucial in design education as they improve creative processes related to thefuture, machine-human interaction, and the space concept and its formation.As virtuality beingevaluated as a layer of reality becomes a representation of architectural space that belongs to thephysical world, it also has the potential to approach space design in a new way.It has the potential to aff ect and improve the perception of creating space and deliver spatialsolutions, understand new living conditions, and discover the future by responding to technologicalimprovements.Virtual reality creates a personal space experience that diff racts space and time—improvingtechnologies set these spaces, which simulate reality, as a layer of fact, a refl ection or representation.The cyber and virtual experiences that have emerged in new media spaces have reduced space’sdependency on the physical world through the integration of improving technologies and art. ‘SALT Research’ within Salt Galata, a monumental building in Galata-İstanbul, and ‘Virtual Archive’, a media art project by Refik Anadol that questions the virtual-digital space concept, were chosen as experience spaces. It was emphasized that there are holistic composition differences between spaces due to the current physical space experience that composes the infrastructure of the study and virtual space. It is composed of different elements and is perceived just like real space. The dataset includes a detailed assessment of two different spaces with similar contexts and contains the physical and virtual space analysis through syntactic, semantic and pragmatic scales. Volunteer participants emphasized the differences in holistic composition between the two spaces. They noted that the virtual space differs from the physical space and is composed of different elements and that the user has the perception of belonging just like in a physical space.The physical space, SALT Research, was evaluated as satisfactory and high-quality in terms of aesthetics and equipment. Phrases used to describe it were neat, high spaces, comfort, spaciousness, light, dark areas, tranquillity, silence, acoustic balance, harmony, historical, gripping, transformation, aesthetic and functional, and plain. In contrast, participants saw the Virtual Archive is a new, exciting, different, and innovative experience. The bodily freedom of the virtual space experience was described as optimistic. Through a brief understanding of the space, they overcame the difficulties of physical existence that arose when accessing information in this new environment.Fictional space produced with a multidisciplinary study using improving technologies creates settings where new questions are asked, and different answers are made, broadening the horizons in virtual space studies, space concept, design, and experience. Virtuality being evaluated as a layer of reality represents architectural space that belongs to the physical world.Virtual reality technology changes and influences our time, dimension, and architectural perceptions, the modes of expression and interaction models in art and architecture by taking us into a different universe experienced spiritually and mentally in new space creations.The space experience through the journey of interpretation and understanding of space and architecture tells different things for each person on each occasion. Perceiving space through the physical space experience and active senses via intellectual feedback also affects virtual reality interactions.Different disciplines examine the machine, human, space, and future relations in an interdisciplinary environment. Different designs’ varieties and opportunities have a place in architecture and interior architecture. In the future, the integration of physical space, virtual space, and machine intelligence into space design and design education and the role and effect of the designer will continue to be discussed.Today, new representation environments present new evolutions that improve, evaluate, and interpret spatial ideas. Despite changing technologies, humans must exist somewhere, and existence is related to our sensory, emotional, and memorial creations. In this sense, the place of humans and designers will continue to be questioned in the new spaces created. Keywords: Patrik Schumacher, ethics, ethical paradigms in architecture, humanitarian architecture, architectural media platforms.
