Holistic ecology - the use of hunter/gatherer skills as tools for a better  understanding of mankind and the world. Hunter/gatherer societies existed for hundreds of thousands of years, experiencing their connectedness to the earth and the great spirit, being provided for their needs and in return acting as "caretakers" of the land. This lifestyle was made possible through simultaneous functioning in three circles: Man to mother earth.  Man to father creator.  Man to his brothers and sisters. Through the eyes of Holistic Ecology each one of the circles is as important as the others. Failing to connect to any of them might cause a person to loose his connectedness to the life force and the spiritual wisdom with which he was born. Connecting to the three circles while assuming our responsibility as a species and our personal life task will enable us to leave behind us a better world for our children and grandchildren... Based on this conviction we, in "Shomrei Hagan" (the keepers of the garden) are busy passing on the ancient knowledge and wisdom of the "earth cultures" applied to our modern life. This, in a wide variety of programs targeting adults as well as children and youth.
