Inside the fiery gathering of King Charles which highlights his beliefs

This was not really a run-of-the-mill Royal opportunity.

At the Sunny Garden of the Hi Grove Estate, I stood in a circle with King Charles and a liberal group, participating in his first “Sadbhav Summit”.

We raised our arms in honor of nature because we were standing around a fire, which was burning within a ring of flowers.

Presiding over the fire ceremony, in which we twisted the north, south, east and west and then Mother Earth, a indigenous leader – an earth elderly – a headdress and the dazzle of blue wings.

A conch was opened. Butterflies flew around the flowers. And, in a concession for modernity, as well as holding the wings in a blessing for the king, the elders were reading their ash with an iPhone.

There people were reaching the sky, wearing colored facial paints and wide necklaces, while I caught my palms self-conscious, melting in my M&S suit.

The summit was a celebration that the King’s philosophy of Harmony with Nature – is an inaugural event that the Kings Foundation hopes that a regular meeting will be formed.

This brought the representatives of indigenous people including environmentalists, climate preachers, biological farmers, herbalists, teachers, crafts people and philanthropists as well as tribes in Amazon.

For good measures, the US version of the office was dwight, or at least actor Rain Wilson, director of a climate change group.

Amazon had other visitors. A film driver of Amazon Prime was making a documentary for the next year, which was porringing every moment, as holy smoke arose on apple trees in Glosterushair.

In a light summer suit, the king spoke a few cool words of the reception, wore a circle of wings and a scarf that was wrapped around her shoulders.

A human, rogging, humorous and quietly radical figure, he was at the center of the fact that he hopes that he would become the first of many such ceremonies.

But it raised the question – and maybe open a window – what the king believes. What is this thoughtful man really thinking about?

Harmony is the philosophy of the king, it means that we should work against it with the grains of nature. Or as “her”, he describes nature, published in his book on this subject, in 2010.

It is all about the difference of life, which is infected with a strong sense of spiritual, and the idea that the human and natural world cannot be separated.

This is the philosophy that combines many different activities together to protect environment, climate change, permanent farming, urban planning, architecture, traditional craftsmanship and to build bridges between different religions.

According to a source close to the king, it is “perhaps the most important part of his final legacy”, which brings together different varieties of work that “may seem different in a philosophical world scene about creating a better, more durable world for future generations”.

The king’s ideas, including the environment, were “once seen as an outsider, but now many elements have been accepted and adopted as traditional ideas and mainstream practice, embraced worldwide”.

In his book on harmony – a new way to see our world, the king describes his purpose as “call to revolution”, and writes that he recognizes the strength of the word.

It is a broader against a consumer culture, in which people and natural worlds become objects. He warns environmental threats to the future of the Earth. There is a call to protect traditional crafts and skills and a radical change in rejecting modern, unstable, exploiting forms of farming.

If Avanta is not a garde, it is a avant gardener.

If you go for a walk in the gardens of the highgrov, there is a fence of small obstacles, in which wooden rods are woven around the post. The king makes himself himself and this idea of things is being woven together, it seems central for harmony.

His book moves from the importance of geometry, with patterns contained in nature, designed in Islamic art and the inspiring dimensions of the Gothic cathedral.

The feeling of holy in nature, as well as in people, seems to have an important part of the attitude of this world.

At lunch at lunch at the Sadbhav Summit, Grace was called by Norwich’s bishop, Graham Ashra.

He said that the king of harmony is with a very deep personal Christianity.

“My understanding is that he attracts his energy and thoughts by spending time in prayer and thinking,” said Bishop.

He said that the king sees his role as service to others and the feeling is “seen how he is always eager to learn from other religious traditions, build bridges and promote good relationships created on respect and understanding”.

Within the varieties of Christianity, the king is also said to be interested in the use of conservative beliefs and icons.

The king has an example of the personal sense of spirituality in the highgrove. There is a small sanctuary in the field, where no one else goes inside, where he can spend time alone with this ideas.

It should set a world away from a world ceremony State visit this week by French President Macron,

The focus of this inauguration harmony summit was coming to the knowledge of indigenous people, exploiting in pre-industrial ways of working with their knowledge and nature.

Survival Ray Meres was to welcome representatives of the Earth Elders Group, who work to protect the rights of “original people”, who have become guardians with danger of the natural world. They were wearing traditional headdresses, face paints and jewelry between highgrove flowers and trees.

Bastida, the mindhi of the people of Otomi-Toltech in Mexico, said, “People’s selfishness has distanced them from nature. They cannot feel the wind, they are also focusing on the clock.”

The Cacophone modern world has broken our relationship with nature, said Rutando Nagra from South Africa. He described our era as the time of “forgetting loudly”.

“We all have ego and ambitions. I wanted to be an entrepreneur, I wanted to sell out,” said, “from Ecuador, Amazon Sacred Headwatters Alliance coordinator Uyyar Domingo Matar Nempiyakai said.

It was to sell his land for temptation oil. He set a different route and explained what “harmony” now meant for him.

He said, “All this humans, all living beings, visible and invisible, this is the mother nature … everything is connected and mutual respect.”

These were people of forests and rivers who spoke of disastrous pressures on them with mining, oil and urbanization.

Either the punches were not pulling. It was warned how “European” had killed its people and another said that very highly hypnotized COP climate change meetings were filled with empty promises that were never distributed to the ground -level communities.

Brazil’s Alton Kranak spoke of rivers that “disappeared with money” and, given the drought-up, the polluted waterways were like a very loving “grandfather” in a coma.

But how can harmony can work in such unsatisfactory world?

Patrick Dunne, which runs the educational harmony project, uses concept in more than 100 schools in the UK, war in Ukraine, applying principles in a place of war.

He is taking classes of children suffering from struggle, and re -combining them with nature, taking them to parks and forests for a place to fix them.

“Ukraine is a powerful example of a country that is in a war that they do not want and they are losing many people. It is terrible, a lot of pain and suffering. And they want harmony, they want harmony, a future of living together, so the message of harmony is really resonant,” he said.

The hygroves, winning with their devious tiles and trees, grows through the hole in the roof of a shelter, a summer day on a summer day. It is a model of harmony with nature.

How does that message work when you often get out in anger, noise and cruel world?

The idea of harmony makes the idea that it keeps in practice, it is not just a “idea practice”, King’s Foundation Executive Education Director Simon Sadiski says, says, who teaches craftsmanship to a new generation.

“This is not just a theoretical concept, it is not just a philosophy, it is based in practice,” Dr. Saysi says.

A textile worker, who completes the King Foundation course, says Beth Somarville, “There is a lot of horrific in the world, it is difficult to be optimistic. You can feel completely powerless.”

But she says that the idea of “harmony in nature” inspires her work and helps to create things that can be both beautiful and functional, in a way “all connected”.

“This inspires me to pursue and hope,” she says.
