In examining the relationships between humans, nonhuman species, and nature, discourse studies conducted from both critical and other perspectives attempt to enhance the visibility of nonhuman life forms and make salient the moral obligations that humanity should uphold to protect the ecosystem. However, effectiveness varies with individuals who harbor divergent views on what and how they should do toward a more unified human-nature relationship. Enlightened by the inclination-oriented notion of self-realization (Naess, 1989), this article investigates how self-realization unfolds in identification by reference to a modified formulation, which systemizes the abstract concept of self-realization, its semantic interpretations, and the linguistic realizations by examining three Tang poems. It is found that self-realization unfolds in a discourse characterized by a high degree of bodily-mental, interpersonal, and interspecies integrations, where human beings play an active role in identification through synesthesia. This research is significant not only in helping alleviate negative emotions toward moral restraints and fostering a willingness to engage in ecological protection but also in introducing an applicable paradigm of analyzing discourse ecologically.
