NATURALLY YOURS
We have gone out of sync with nature. That us why we are suffering and so many catastrophes takes place every year.
Nature's angry mood is a reflection of the nature of men - always greedy and exploitative.
As Havelock Ellis wrote long ago, the sun, the moon and the stars would have disappeared long ago had they been within the reach of predatory human beings.
We have forgotten ourselves - our own good nature-and our animalistic instincts have had the better of us. We exploit nature and are blind that mother earth is weeping. Can we ever be happy if our "mother" is crying? Can we ever be at peace so long as our mother earth is in pain inflicted by our wanton acts of destruction?
Mother earth is always in a giving mood so long as we keep it alive. Isn't it our duty to change our mind-sets and become conservators of nature?
It is in our own interest to realise that we be the trustees of nature's beauty abd wonders.
We have to rethink over the very concepts of development we have been following. Development has to have a human fac ; and for that spirituality alone can be the driving force.
We need to keep in mind that anything we do by way of development must enrich the environment.
If we were to go about the business f preserving nature seriously, then we need to re-establish the divine link between human nature and environmental nature. Nature is divine, so is the inner-self. As someone said, till now man has been against nature; from now on let him be against his own nature.
