No Waste, No Want

Humankind is greedy because humans are essentially seekers of happiness, and in the pursuit of happiness we have drifted toward the material world and away from our Center or essence of our being. All the damage that has been done to the Mother Earth is the result of the individual and collective illusion that by mastering nature outside we would be happy in life. Scientific “advancements” have added fuel to the fire of this gradual destructive process happening globally.

Humanity needs to realize that it has to move from the material world to the Center again. The fountain of happiness and peace is re-establishing the natural rhythm of the inner and outer world. Collective prayer and collective mediation are only to purify the environment and fill the air with vibrations of peace and happiness.

Each and everyone of us can save water, electricity, gas, and anything and everything that can help ease the excessive misuse and lack of respect and love for Mother Nature’s abundant gifts. 

We need to wake up to the reality “No waste No want”. We all must rejoice whenever we are able to help our environment in small ways in our daily life through our awareness of its boundless gifts. The more we learn to respect Nature, and reduce all kinds of misuse and abuse of her abundant gifts to all beings, the more she will be cleansed by the positive vibrations. When we fill our hearts with overwhelming gratitude and love for her, it would also ward off the negative impact on the already polluted environment.

Let love and the warmth of our hearts for the Mother Earth and all her beings expand our awareness of her infinite glory as the most unique planet. Let our small sacrifices reduce global warming and bring back the natural balance and harmonic rhythm in existence. No small efforts would go in vain both individually and collectively. We just have to put our heart into our thoughts.
