Abstract: In the sacred texts of human history, the garden and water have spiritual and mystical significance. To the beauty of nature, divine creation, must correspond the beauty of the garden of the soul. The responsibility of the human being is to protect the four elements of the world -earth, water, air, and fire-, to ensure their harmony and fair distribution for all on the planet. Today with its 8 billion inhabitants the earth must be a "planetary garden" or will no longer be. The city-garden constitutive of the entire planetary garden can be the basis of a society solidary and serene, attentive to the beauty of the world. The water that embellishes it for our physical and psychic health testifies to the conjunction between nature, art, and love of wisdom, that is, philosophy. The cities-gardens of the planetary garden, fertile and irrigated, will constitute a territory of hope. Otherwise, an unprecedented cataclysm could threaten the world and humanity. Couldn’t Mexico City be a laboratory for the world?
