Good planet, Good life


Today we have the necessary technology, resource and capability to address every issue on the planet. Never before in the history of humanity have human beings been as capable as we are today. The only thing that is missing is inclusive consciousness.

We are living in a time when we have to think of protecting all that has nurtured us. For the first time we have to talk about protecting the planet that always took care of us. The preservation and nurturing of this planet is no different from aspiring for a good life for ourselves, because there is no good there is no good life without a good planet. We are looking at ecological concerns as some kind of an obligation, it is our life. The very breath that we inhale and exhale is just that.

Unless we feel this and experience it, I don’t believe we’re going to truly act in a big way. If people don’t take care of land, they will ruin the whole country. Our economic concerns are many for sure, but we must always keep ecological concerns a part of our economic development. Otherwise we will have to pay a huge price for it.

Raising the consciousness of the whole world may be  a  long-term project in terms of work, but if the leadership experiences and truly feels this within, a huge change can be brought about in everything that we do. If the consciousness of a few key people on the planet the way they think they feel and experience life can be altered even a little and if the necessary focus and investment of resources is made in the right direction I think mother earth will bounce back.

If we give her a chance, mother earth will turn back everything into absolute abundance and beauty. We don’t   have to do anything great, if we reduce the meddling to whatever extent we can, without making ourselves suffer, if we just reduce the damage that we are doing, the rest will happen itself.
Scientific studies say that if all the insects disappear from the planet tomorrow, then life here will last only another 25years. No life form will be able to survive. Including bacterial life, everything will die if the insects go away .But if human beings disappear tomorrow, in 25years’time earth will be flourishing. Though everything we do is biodegradable and so the world can do fine.

Spiritual process without concern for life around you is not a spiritual process, because anybody who looks into himself, anybody who turns inward, naturally realizes that his existence and the outside existence means are no different. Spirituality essentially means an all inclusive experience when being concerned and being caring about is everything around you is very natural.

It is my wish that we as a generation do not become a disaster in every sense. In our lives, if we do not do what we cannot do, there is no problem. But if we do not do what we can do, we are a disaster.
