"Let Nature be your Teacher"


"Nature is the manifestation of God! In every object of nature our ancestors saw the Almighty in one form or other! They worshiped nature as none did! but today Man's atrocities against Nature are manifold! He has blasted the mountains, felled trees, polluted all rivers beyond redemption! and has not left even the free air without polluting it! The earth has been dug out for some purpose or other! Is there any limit for his selfish nature? But on the other hand Nature has been forgiving him for all his lapses! We do not know when Nature will , in its anger, retaliate! It has been very, very patient for a very long time! God has causeless love for his children! In the same way, Nature too has been too very lenient to men! All trees, specially the sandalwood tree offers its fragrance to the axe that cuts it! When burnt it wafts fragrance in the air & rubbed, it produces sandal paste that is fragrant! It does not mind the fellow who has cut it but its fragrance is given to the very axe that has cut it! All trees & other objects of Nature are forgiving and treat man indulgently!! Nature teaches us many lessons! " let nature be your teacher" said Wordsworth the famous Nature poet! We should remember that it it is to our own peril that we destroy Nature! The floods, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions & other calamities are the signs of nature's anger against man! After all Man is insignificantly small before the forces of Nature! Let him realize this factor & behave properly lest he will be ruined!"
