Concern and Environment

Concern and Environment- 

The stories of Indian History are full of environmental concern. Even in Ramayana, there is always a concern for the environment in every incident. 

The incident of construction of Ram Setu has its own significance. Ram with his vanarsena reached the southmost end of the land which is having seashore. It was an important question of how to march over the sea with the huge monkey army. 

Ram prayed and worshipped Samudradev- God of oceans to grant passage for his army. Samudradev appeared and explained that he is bound by the law of nature and showed the shallow area where the cause can be built. Lord Ram accepted and constructed the Ram Setu. 

The act of Ram was full of concern for all the living beings who lived in the sea. And the way the balance between goal and environment was in front of him. 

There is another incident of Lanka Dahan by Hanuman. As we see it was a huge fire but Hanuman only set fire to the buildings, without harming the living beings of Lanka. In Lanka Dahan, only nonliving things turned into ashes. Lanka Dahan was a necessary act to hammer the ego of Ravana. So Hanuman jumped over the buildings to set the fire. in this way, Hanuman was able to balance his aim and the life cycle of Lanka. 

In today's era, every organisation has to deploy balance between its business growth and the environment. It should be sustainable in all ways. We all have to ensure that we will protect our mother Earth while we work on modernization.
