Pilar Vergésguardian of the hermitage on the mountain of San Miquel and custodian of very ancient lineages of medicine and the sacred feminine, offered us a profound and urgent reflection on the state of our world and our relationship with it.
In her message, Vergés denounces a system that, according to her, is slowly making us sick, moving further and further away from nature and our connection to the Earth. These words sound like a warning.
We live in a society that he has lost touch with the foundations of life itself: food, water, and connection with nature. We no longer know where our food comes from, we ignore the path that water takes to reach our homes and many of us, especially the younger ones, have never experienced the magic of sleeping under a starry sky. This alienation from nature it’s disorienting usmaking our relationship with the planet increasingly fragile and superficial.
Technology that deceives us
Vergés also highlights another crucial aspect of our time: the invasive role of technology. In fact, he warns:
There is also the issue of technology. Because a lot of fiction comes and at the moment, reality and what is not reality is very confusing.
We live in an era where the distinction between what is real and what is virtual is becoming increasingly blurred. We look at screens that promise us endless connections and friendships, but, in the end, everything it boils down to an illusion. Highlighting the paradox of digital connection that often leaves a void of authentic relationships, he states:
You look at a screen, you have a million friendsif you turn the screen, there is no one there
His reflection culminates in a clear and powerful invitation:
The only thing to do is go back. Return to the earth.
In this context, returning to the land means rediscover our rootsreconnect with nature and find a lost balance. Pilar Vergés urges us not to forget our planet, our home and to reclaim our humanity through a conscious return to the simplicity and authenticity of life.
