“Our future depends on whether we can realize our interdependence with all of nature. Human beings see themselves apart from nature and feel they can use and exploit it. If this is not understood it will act independently to teach us. Humans are perhaps the most violent and inhumane species in the world. This exploitation of animals, birds and all living things has gone too far.
Nature is a giver. Take a tree as an example. It never asks for anything in deep winter or intense heat. It offers flowers and fruits for all to take as food. Even after it dies, it gives us the timber. It gives us oxygen for humans to survive.
Simple living can save the world. In Wuhan, the blue skies could be seen even just a few weeks into quarantine. The air is breathable, the waters are cleaner. Yes the stock markets will fall. The culture of consumerism and waste will stop for a while. This must become a new culture. Simple living is the foundation of a happy contented life. Do we really need 10 percent growth year after year? Is that sustainable? The wise know that this unsustainable consumerism cannot go on for ever. Take what you need. This is what nature does.
Finally understand the power of Nature. No technology, no construction can fight against the power of Nature . Be it air, water, fire or a virus. It’s more powerful than a distorted mind of humans so beware and be aware. Treat all of nature with respect and love in every act you do. Learn to respect and love for your own sake. You are doing nobody a favour. Once this virus is controlled another will rise. Once a fire in Forest is subdued another will arise. One a tsunami is gone another will arise Every time with larger force The next hundred years will be witness to this may the next 20 years .. yogis be in Tree pose. Every teacher of spiritualism in any form and every yogi every learner on the path must show the way. Now…”
