From Nature tells you how to become "one" with nature and appreciate its aspects that give you a sense of God within you. The metaphores used are like ones that would explain religious significance in everyday things, such as the stars forming the streets of the cities of heaven. Here though, phenomina are not seen as an overall spiritul force that everybody must respect, but a force within yourself making you interpret what appeals to you to give you a sence of direction that feels rather than is thought. Being able to enjoy the landscape and become one with nature helps get rid of the idea of being a part of a world that offers confusion and sadness and limits you from realizing yourself as an entity connected with all aspects of life not just, your life.
This is a good example of Transendentalism because it explains how to put an aspect of life that is seen everyday into a thought that helps you focus more on what your natural desires and harmony within yourself and the enviroment rather than worrying about what other's might percieve as their own life. By going out into the the forest and getting away from civilization, you are better able to connect with nature and see what you don't normally see and since you aren't around anybody you are able to make more of your own personal judgements.
