You cease being a part of nature when see yourself as something separate from nature.

When you look at the things around you, all the things you have, you are creating a separate being from nature, that isn't a part of nature, to own nature.
Anything you could ever own would require you to create a being independent of nature, or there would not be anything to own or anyone to own it.

To own something you have to create an imaginary owner.

to own something....
well we've naturally evolved to our current state that has given us comprehension and language. Ownership began when the concept of ownership evolved and became understood. Each person can have a different understanding of their ownerships. Each person can have a different understanding of the concept of nature. I prefer a broad definition of nature that includes everything. Nature created this owner, these egos, these concepts. What happened unnaturally?
It's apparently human nature or else it wouldn't be here now?
What can interfere with nature? Nothing imo, it is the process to me.
I understand the other concepts of nature as well but I'm not using it in that context currently.

I don't think you cease being part of Nature, you just become a deluded part of Nature.

all patriarchal myths including the myth of scientism, and the myth of mental illness, all try and distance us from our natures and others (including other species) and the natural world.

"Dominion" is not domination, or destruction, which is what has bee done by accursed Humankind. The deluge of the waters is now a deluge of poisoned water, poisoned air, and poisoned earth.

Yeah, but the organism isn't doing the buying. How many organisms do you know that own stuff?
You as an organism literally never own anything, it's pretend. Only you as an idea can own anything. This is because ownership, along with money, is just a concept we made up, The same as we make up our idea's of self and build that self-image \ to own stuff.
It's not really real . . , only pretend real.
Reality verse actuality . . .
I think of ones reality as more subjective in comparison to actuality. Actuality is independent of self, yet "your" reality needs one, to conform to the society around you, because that's what everyone else does and how we have been conditioned through tradition to think.
