It is high time we ecological humans now stand and see that the cities we have created so far, are no more eco- friendly. They depend on fast vehicles emitting gases, also air conditioning inner space creating environment warming. Drinking water 💦 through pipe lines, because wells and ponds no longer supply clear water for drinking purposes. Institutions and schools and hospitals in concrete buildings 🏨 where nature is far away. Play grounds and sports are limited, availed by only a few, most population spend time viewing television 📺, android phones 📱. Relaxation is done by movies.
But our Noble poet Ravindra nath Tagore thought of a ecology where people would stay and study in gardens between trees not in the contemporary class rooms and be near nature. Now we are trying to return to the same direction after polluting the nature to a saturated point. We now want to stay every where near nature, eco- friendly.
Modern cities support everything even the foods by packets and containers like potato chips, Cadburys, packeted fruit drinks, etc. So natural! How can we return to nature? The worldly pleasures are required but not to the extent of diminishing the ways and relations with nature. We have to stay in a village like atmosphere where computer and fishing near a pond, goes side by side. Playing in a garden having flowers 🌹, enjoying playing with flying saucers and also meditating in the shades of a big tree and supporting our pets 🐱 in such places not our customary apartment rooms will definitely relax our lives. That is what we are searching for at present.
In this pandemic situation, let us arrange ourselves with whatever we have towards eco friendly nature. Naturally everything will come out beautiful in this loneliness. We should shift our attention from self centred comfortable attention to the greater cosmic creative Spirit which controls the whole universe. As per Sadhguru, that is; we are not the body, we are not the mind, but are connected with the cosmic Spirit the super natural power, the God, in what so ever form you worship and release own self from the bondage of earth the maya, the relations the duties, only serve the super natural power. In believing thus we can only wage war for the righteous against all seniors and relations as was done in Kurukshetra after the vision of Gita by Bhagwan Shree Krishna to Arjuna. Amen.
