Guest guest Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 This earth is not created for us alone. When compared to other living things our population is almost zero. The land or place we consider as belonging to us or as our own, is also the dwelling place of trillions of micro organisms. Wild animals stray into the places that we consider as our own. Birds search for food, Plants, trees, grass and flowers grow in our land without our permission. Wind blow, rain falls, snow falls, sun rays, moon shines – all of which are not aware of the geographical barrier that we have created.  Every animal create an imaginary boundary around the surrounding of its dwelling as its own and it fervently prevents the entry of intruders. This animal territory may also fall within our geographical boundaries or other species. These animals do not understand human law and is not aware of our legal rights over the land they are residing, searching their food. Just like the tendency of an animal to protect its area of inhabitance, humans have fought wars to protect their area of inhabitance.  Boundaries are imaginary in nature. Most of the boundaries we are seeing in map today look differently a 100 years back, it look differently 1000 years back, and it look differently 2000 years back also. According to these changes our patriotism changed, our culture has changed, our language changed, our religious beliefs changed, and our concept of god also changed.  This earth feed us. Like all other living things on the earth, from this earth we are collecting the material needed for our body, on this earth we are experiencing happiness and sadness. On this earth we are born, on this earth we are going to die. On this earth we are procreating our next generation.  Since the land does not belong to us only, we should not claim superiority over other inhabitants of this earth, we should not claim that this or that area of land belongs to my family, my state or my country. We should stop activities that are resulting in mass extinction of species which got equal rights over earth like us. We are here to live in harmony with nature during the life span of ours.  Therefore the earth does not belong to us only. We are just part of it like other living and non-living things. We have no superiority over earth, than other living and non living things. The earth is not created to human survival only.  Hence, it is our duty to respect the divines of nature and its creation. It is our duty to effective utilization of natural resources to minimize the damage to ecology of this earth.  Regards Rohri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 The Mail explains beautiful Mother Nature, and is an excellent excellent explanation of Nature. We are born of Mother Earth and die on Mother Earth, We don't bring anything with us and cannot take anything with us. In fact we are part of this Mother Earth, and without Mother Earth we also don't have any existence.Therefore for our own survival we need to take care of others too. This is preached by our Leaders like Ramakrishna Vivekananda,that is " Shiv Gnyane Jeev Seva "  By Rama Krishna and " Jeeve Prem Koriche gei gan Seigon seveche Ishwar " By Viveka nanda. What a wonderful concept. Let us Congratulates the sender for the nice mail. Hope Mr. Mani will continue to enlighten us like this ..

Guest guest Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 The Earth is our Mother - Ma. And, it is really sad that only humans committ the crime of buying and selling our mother in form of land. Have you ever thought that we divide and tear apart our mother when we raise boundaries over it. I had read somewhere that there are aboriginal tribes in who do not approve of owning, buying and selling of land as it is their mother and they cannot do so with their mother. Where has this wisdom gone in this civilized information-age society of ours? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Mother Earth is all our relations, all the microbial peoples: plant, animal, forest, river, stone-tribes .... It is NOT " our duty to effective utilization of natural resources to minimize the damage to ecology of this earth ... " that was too late, even a hundred years ago! we now have only 1-3 percent of the Whales and Dolphins, Forests, Rainforests, Wetlands, Aquifirs, Rivers, the Mycosphere (underground web of life), and Oceanic Life (as we knew it) remaining. our ONLY duty, and opportunity is to reforest the planet ten time over what is is now, or more ... and return the only divinity, the only health, the only sanity -- the only economy possible. the only source of food, the only source of wisdom and happiness. Mother Earth is the Water Diety, long LONG vanquished. only in Returning Her, Water, can LIFE be returned ... and Her name is 'all our relations', todas las cosas ...
