Nature Worship

Nature worship, often associated with animism, is the belief that everything in nature—trees, rivers, mountains, and animals—has a spirit or life force. This perspective fosters a deep reverence for the natural world, seeing it as interconnected and alive. Practitioners may offer thanks, conduct rituals, or seek guidance from these spirits, recognizing their influence in daily life. Nature worship emphasizes respect, harmony, and sustainability, encouraging people to live in balance with the environment rather than dominating it. This worldview fosters a sense of belonging and responsibility toward the Earth and all its inhabitants.
