The Green Covenant !



The Ark of the Gaia Covenant is the Green Covenant. Ecosystems Management is the need of the hour.

We are destroying the environment, we are destroying our water reservoirs, we are not respecting Nature. The main enemy of Man is Man himself ! Pollution, environmental degradation, desertification etc are the problems of the hour. Food Crisis, Water Crisis and all sorts of crises had risen up.

Let us not destroy the environment. Let us respect Nature. We are confronted by an imminent catastrophic eco collapse !

Nature is visible Intelligence. Intelligence is invisible Nature. The male and female components of the Ultimate are called Natura Naturans, Creative Nature ( the Divine ) and Natura Naturata , Created Nature ( Nature ) in Spinozist Philosophy and as Saguna Brahman ( Relative Being ) and Nirguna Brahman ( Absolute Being ) in Indian Philosophy. Saguna Brahman is Prakrithi, is Nature !

The Vedas define the Absolute Being thus

Him the Sun cannot express nor the moon nor the stars
Lightning cannot express Him
Nor mighty Fire
Through Him they shine !

( Na tatra bhathi Sooryo na chandratharakam
Nema Bhanthi Vidyutho Kuthoyam Agni
Tham eva bhantham anubhathi sarvam
Tasya bhasa sarvam idam Vibhathi ).


Let us respect Nature, which is visible He !

Regarding Water Conservation, the hydrological engineer, Michael Kravalik advocates a massive restoration of the watersheds. Let water return to earth. Let there be more percolation tanks, to enrich groundwater resources !
