Abstract

Man and nature are inseparable unity, both are organic unity that must be mutually maintained. Daisaku Ikeda asserted that the state of the world filled with the destruction of nature has diminished the interdependent relationship between humans and nature. The destruction of nature caused by human unconsciousness of nature preservation and hierarchical view which puts human beings as supreme beings among all that exists in nature is a significant warning that should re-awaken human beings of responsibility (guarding and nurturing) to nature. Pope Francis in Laudato Si' emphasizes the ecological repentance that should be imbued with ecological spirituality rooted in the faith of faith in Christ as proclaimed through the Gospel. In this context, ecological conversion can be understood as the process of sharing all the fruits of human encounter with Christ with the surrounding environment. One result of this encounter should be manifested in relation to the universe, i.e. environmental justice.
