Nature's enemy-Man

Nature’s enemy- Man

Is man or woman part of nature? NO. They are creations of nature, yes, but seem to be not part of nature’s Great Plan. If you see the web of life in nature, all plants, insects, birds and animals need help from each other to survive. Humans are not part of their chain at all. They do not need us to survive. We need them to survive. We are destroyers and not of any help in their survival or propogation. Nature’s main activity is evolution.
We are a creation of nature and carry part of all the five elements, ie pancha bhuthas in us. For example, the salts from the fish of the ocean, is in us, in the liquid in the womb, tears, sweat, blood.
Before the advent of scientific advancements in the last century, man used to live with nature. He used to getup with the Sun early morning and go to bed after toiling in the field with sunset. He was in rhythm with nature. He became arrogant after scientific inventions that he can conquer nature and control it too. Nature pays back with AIDS, Tsunamis, earthquakes,cancers etc.There seems to be a battle between Man and Nature. We do not know who will win. But why this battle? All battles end with suffering and destruction on both sides.
Nature is very much more powerful than Man. The only way Man can survive, is to be part of nature and treat it with love, so that nature accepts him as a member of the family.
Now, man is abusing nature by digging for oil, polluting atmosphere and water, using explosives to kill animals and for destroying mountains, using non-biodegradable plastics etc.
Unless humans change their ways, he will be his own enemy.
