Gratitude and Greed

Volume 11: 2002-2003

What can we define as greed, and what is its source? Is greed a symptom of some deeper affliction? There may be responses to greed that are powerful enough to turn our focus in other directions. Do our literary or spiritual traditions support shifting our focus to gratitude? Does gratitude overcome greed, or do we simply use it to mollify our guilt? Contributors to this issue of Whole Terrain examine personal and professional responses to gratitude and greed as they relate to environmental practice.
