A New Earth Full Summary:

Chapter 1 A New Earth Summary: The urgency of transformation

Author says when faced with a radical crisis, when the old way of being in the world, of interacting with each other and with the realm of nature doesn’t work anymore, author says when survival is being threatened by numerous problems, either two things can happen with any human or species, either individual human life form or a species will die or become extinct or human will rise above the limitations of its condition through an evolutionary leap.

In this chapter, the author says that it is believed that life-forms on this planet first started and evolved in the sea. The author says that when there were no animals yet to be found on land, the sea was already swarming with life. Author says that at some point any sea creature must have tried to venture onto dry land,  at first that creature must have tried to crawl a few inches into the land but at start that creature must have exhausted due to gravitational pull of the planet and with this starting difficulty that creature would have again return to the water or sea where gravity is almost nonexistent, that creature returned to that sea so that can live in there with much ease,  but creatures must have tried again and again to come onto the land and finally they must have adapted to life on land, they grew feet instead of fins, they must have developed lungs instead of gills, that species must have ventured this alien environment and gone through such an evolutionary transformation unless it was needed to do so by some crisis situation which has forced fish and sea creatures to leave their habitat and evolve.

Two Buddhist monks were travelling along a muddy road, it was raining heavily, while they were traveling they show a beautiful women, she was unable to cross an intersection, because of heavy rain and bad weather, looking to her first  Buddhist helped that women by picking her up and takes her to the other side and after helping her, both Buddhist leave for their journey, as they reach their destination second Buddhist ask the first one, by saying we Buddhist aren’t supposed to be near females, still you helped her why you did that?

Listening to this first Buddhist said “ I left that girl there, are you still carrying her?

With this exampleTollee want us to understand that why we people carry small issues for long, why we overthink, author says that we should be like duck, after a fight duck immediately swim in opposite directions and immediately get back to life, they become normal then why can’t we people like duck, why we keep small things in mind and heart we people must overcome and should get back to normal.
