Hinduism and the Environment–a good summary



Hindu teachings have a lot of wisdom to inspire the environmental movement, however there isn't a website dedicated to Hinduism's perspective on care for the environment. You can find some very brief summaries here and there but by and large the environmental movement has so far glanced over the possible support Hindu spiritual leaders can provide the battered green concerns of the world. Hindu teachings go very well with sustainable living since the general creed of Hindus connect humans, nature and God as a whole. Experiencing Divinity through nature is a spiritual goal for Hindu mystics, many of whom teach the  reverence of nature and non-wastage of her bounty. There are two webpages I have highlighted in HinduSearchEngine.com that give basic summaries of the Hindu perspective on environmental care: the first is from www.environment.Gen.tr . This page also provides a link to the Bhumi project, a Hindu based international environmental movement meant to spur environmental action amongst Hindus through religious establishments. The other page from www.treehugger.com gives a better academic summary of Hindu teachings related to environmental care, but it is in bad need of editing for language errors; however it does the job in providing a starting point for research that is otherwise hard to come by on the web.

  2. Hinduism does not require allegiance to a particular creed. The tolerance of difference along with openness to a variety of beliefs makes Hinduism a religious traditions rather than a dogmatic set of beliefs frequently associated with the western idea of a religion.

  3. The discovery of the origin of Hinduism, as well as the inception of the Hindu civilization still raise their head in several debates.guarantor
