Conscious, that behind the colour of nature curtain take place continuous performance of tortures and sufferings, he treated haiku of japanese poet as his own, which he was asked to translate: „we walk above hell, gazing at flowers”. One more antidote on coping with awareness of evil, which exists in nature was warning, that human measures should not be used in assessment of world of plants and animals.
