Description
Summary:The aim of this article is to reflect on the necessity of building a new approach to perceive nature from the perspective of a cosmocentric world in the light of the papal document Laudato Si'. Laudato Si' made its appearance at a very crucial point in human history, when human beings are in the process of plunging towards and into a technocentric space. We now stand on the threshold of a techno-centric world where our future generations will be born into the age of technology. We are the ones who shoulder the responsibility of moulding their perspectives towards a cosmocentric universe.
