Role of Nature in Eastern Religions
Throughout the centuries mankind has displayed the Western attitude that nature must be conquered. In attempting to vanquish nature, our natural environment has been gradually destroyed. Because of man’s attitude toward our planet, the earth’s capacity to sustain life is jeopardized. In the process of attempting to dominate nature, man has placed himself in danger of losing his humanity. However, Eastern religions and philosophies can provide the West with ways to peacefully coexist with the world. One of the biggest lessons learned from both Hinduism and Buddhism is that man is not separate from nature; he is a part of nature and no clear distinction can be extracted between himself and his surroundings.
