As humans we always wanted to conquer and rule over
everything, without understanding the fact that we are just a part of
everything. It is an example of blindness and ignorance. How can we rule over
something with which we are connected and of which we are part of? We can
interact with it, contribute to it, and acknowledge it. If nature is our
mother, then should we rule over her or just be with her and love her? We never
really cared about the interconnection between us and everything else. We
created boundaries and walls between everything, living in our contracted
thinking on a comfy couch, pathetic human nature. If this goes on, human
destruction along with everything else is inevitable.
We harmed nature
through rainforest depletion, wildlife killing not because of need, but because
of greed. We created innumerable amount of plastic waste by not caring about
the consequences. Harmful chemicals, poisons have spread into lands, water,
air, foods and in living bodies. But we don't care. We are good in our bed. We
keep thinking ourselves as superior than everything else. Now see where it has
led us.
First of all we need
to change our viewpoints. What goes around comes around. If you spread trash,
you have to live in that trash someday. We have to acknowledge each and every
constituent part of nature. Then as a part of nature we have to place ourselves
in it in a suitable way such that the biological cycle of ecosystem never gets
broken.
For placing
ourselves suitably in environment, we have to get to know of everything that we
use in our daily life. We should know how they are produced and if it has any
harmful effect on us or on environment. We should use things producing minimum
waste and also reuse, recycle it if possible. Then we have to give the remaining
waste to nature in such a way that it flows in the ecosystem perfectly.
We need to reject
unnecessary things which we use just to show off, like fancy products as costly
wooden furniture (it is the main reason why rainforests are destroyed), most
fashion ingredients and much more which we can find if we try. Reject all those
things which are used only for pleasing others, not serving them. Live simple
and natural instead of being artificial all the time. Nature is the visible
form of god. Serve her.
