In his philosophical work, the Argentinean thinker Rodolfo Kusch seeks to unravel the Indian and countryman’s thinking to highlight the ecological clinging spirit of America which is deeply rooted in land and life. Land is not only reduced to the four cardinal points, it is not divided in different soils either, and soil is the extension. It indicates the situation, anchored in the category of “to be” on the land. The American ecological thinking should be searched as a very deep root without using strength, for life is deeply rooted in the depths of the earth and it should not be pulled up by mediations altering the nature of processes of being on earth. This way, the ecological-cosmological thinking becomes the matrix or basis of an indigenous cosmological philosophy which, in turn, is the manager of other structures, such as politics, architecture, economics, religion and other environments of its cultural organization, either as an empire, a civilization or an organized community. Thus, its cosmic-ecological conception is the basis or the root which is born from the seed over which the main American empires are built.
