Nature Loves Nature But Humans?

       Nature loves nature and human? This is a question to which we know the answer but do not have the courage to say or hear it. While nature keeps trying to communicate with us continuously and she wants to urge us to correct our mistakes. But when we are unable to hear the voice of our soul, then where will we be able to hear the voice of nature? Even then, if you listen carefully, you will find trees and plants also willing to talk to us. This is not a fiction. After all, those scientific theories are not wrong that plants and trees sleep at night, plants like to listen to music, ants also talk among themselves, etc., etc. Just once we try to listen to them, we will understand how nature loves nature and how we are forgetting to love nature.
Once upon time a small plant was born in a forest. When that plant looked around itself, there were big skyscraper trees standing. He felt very small in front of all of them. The plant started crying in sadness, a fairy came there after hearing his cry. When he asked the plant the reason for crying, the plant cried in the same way and said that when Mother Nature had to give me life in this forest, I too had to make it as big as these big trees. Why did you keep me so small, I have no existence in front of them. I will have to look down in front of them for the rest of my life. The fairy laughed after listening to the plant and said, it is your mistake, you will not have to look down on anyone, this tree, it has grown here before you by Mother Nature so that when you are born and grow here, it can support you and you can see the world with the help of them.

The little plant became silent after listening to the fairy, but it did not understand the fairy's words. He felt that the fairy was saying this to him to keep his mind. After some time, that little plant turned into a vine. Now she needed support to get up. She saw that a big tree had bent down one of its branches so much that by holding it she could climb that tree. The plant which had become a creeper was happy and started growing up by holding the branch of the tree. Gradually with time it turned into a big vine and one day it found that its uppermost leaves reached the topmost tip of the tree. Is. From there she could see the whole forest. That day he remembered the words of the fairy and understood that Mother Nature takes care of everyone equally. She cares for everyone big and small, if she makes someone weak, then she also gives support to him.
Shortly after this event a surprising incident happened. One day suddenly that vine felt as if an earthquake had occurred. The tree on which she was wrapped started shaking violently, it seemed that the tree would fall. Bell panicked. But she could not do anything. In a short while, her guess proved to be true like a nightmare dream. The tree that supported him fell to the ground, along with it the vine also fell. Then vine saw that a man had cut down the tree with a saw and was about to cut down another tree. That vine felt that like Mother Nature, man will also make that tree stand again one day. But this did not happen. The man came with his companions and took away the cut tree. Due to this act of those people, that vine also got hurt, many of its tendrils and leaves were broken. That vine started crying again. Hearing her crying, once again the angel came to her and asked the reason for crying. Vine asked with weeping that the man who had cut down his tree and took it away, why didn't he erect the tree again to support her? Doesn't he know that now that vine has become destitute?
Then the fairy sadly said that you have now seen the whole world. But you don't know, outside this forest there is another big forest, the forest of humans where lifeless structures of cement and iron are built. Vine asked who made those structures. Are there vines and trees like me there too? The fairy said, No! There used to be trees like you, there used to be trees too, but by cutting them down, human have been made lifeless structures. Some of which are inhabited by humans. He doesn't love you all as much as Mother Nature does. For here in the forest, Mother Nature makes some or the other support for every plant, tree, river, insect, while humans are making Mother Nature helpless by cutting the forest.
The thing was very difficult to understand that vine still needed more bitter experiences but this much she definitely understood that what has happened has not been cured, it is all very bad.

That vine started feeling sad. But after a few months when it rained, one day her sadness turned to happiness when she saw that the stump of the cut tree had sprouted new shoots. She understood that once again Mother Nature has done healing for her trees and plants. She has also understood that nature loves nature while man is forgetting to love nature.
Guys, it is not a fairy-tale, it is a true story. This story told me vine itself, when I went one day in the forest. Guys, if you also go to the forest and listen carefully, you will get to hear many stories there. Some of them will be very beautiful stories, like that of a naive deer, a mischievous rabbit or a mighty bison. But there will be some stories that you will be more embarrassed than scared of hearing. These stories will include stories of lions being killed by poachers, elephants being killed for their ivory, beautiful deer being killed for their hides and forests being mercilessly cut down to expand their cities. Hearing these stories, we would feel ashamed of such wrongdoings of our fellow human beings. We will also get angry. The trees and plants of the forest will not tell us these stories so that we get scared or shy after listening to them, they will tell us these stories so that we feel what we are missing by listening to them. They will tell us these stories so that we remember that nature loves nature but we are falling out of love with nature.

If you don't want to go far, that is, don't want to go to the forest, then ask the plants kept in your courtyard or terrace or balcony, they will say that they have been suffocating due to dust, smoke and pollution. Their natural routine has been disturbed by the constant light even at night. They need not only fertilizer and water, but also pure air and favorable light. If you go to the vegetable garden, then those vegetables will be found in panic, which are grown wrongly by giving medicines and injections. They will only say that the sad future you humans have chosen for yourselves has been imposed on us too.
So, go to the forest, gardens and terrace and listen to these stories at least once that how Mother Nature controls the seasons for her nature beings and how we humans spoil the order of seasons by becoming enemies of nature. Have been after realizing our mistakes, maybe we will be able to do something positive for nature, environment and climate.

Do Friendship With Nature For Stay Evergreen

*Stay evergreen! These are lovely words. Who one no wants be stay evergreen. Who one no can live happily and full of energy? Is it possible in today's rough-tough life? Yes, absolutely it is possible. We can stay evergreen if we do friendship with the nature. Nature can be our friend more than a book because it gives us new experiences. Nature always gives us opportunities to remain evergreen, but what do we give to nature in return? Barren land and ruined forest! Nature does not ask for return gift but we have to understand that if we are taking any gift from our friend nature then we have to guarantee its safety in the return gift. It is necessary if we want to stay evergreen.*

 

Nature is the book

Whose pages never get old

Whose words do not give us depression

Everyday a new story

New poem

New essay

Gives to read.

Printed books

Takes away our loneliness

But nature's book

Keeps us evergreen,

From body

Healthy in mind

And

Full of enthusiasm.

Let's go,

Make friends with this book. 

 - It is not only my poetry, it is my feelings which is I got won experience with nature. After second wave of Corona period, I was feel deep loneliness. I had big personal loss during that period. I went into high depression. I felt that I have no one in the world. In those days I saw a plant growing in a pot on my balcony. It became clear in two days that it was a mustard plant. Perhaps some mustard seed had fallen into the pot by mistake. Though, it was not the season for mustard crop, but after getting soil, water and sunlight, that mustard seed sprouted. Little leaves came out. Within a week, that mustard seed turned into a tiny, delicate plant. I saw how nature traveled from the spice box in my kitchen to the pot and rose again in its natural form. From this incident, I felt that I must throw away my depression and return to enthusiasm again and go closer to nature. 

After this I started going out of the house towards the forest. While taking long drives, I would see all kinds of trees on both sides of the road, see fields and sometimes even spots where trees had been brutally cut down. I used to stop and see that even the stumps of the trees that were cut down have sprouted leaves. Nature never gives up. Whereas in nature also those five elements are there, together with which our body is made. Then we should not give up either. But before that it is important that we understand well that nature does not never harm anyone. If there is a natural calamity then we are behind it. We disturb the balance of nature and due to this the nature of nature gets spoiled which we see as natural disaster. 

I realized that no matter how much harm we do to nature, but nature keeps on teaching us to be patient and live with enthusiasm, just like an interesting book. It is our fault that we neither read the book of nature nor make it our friend. Yes, whenever nature gets angry because of our bad actions and tsunamis or earthquakes happen, we do not hesitate to call nature a "killer". It is our wickedness. 

The Corona period made us understand the value of oxygen. We saw our family members struggling for every breath. We quarreled among themselves for small cylinders of oxygen. While these trees and plants keep on giving us plenty of oxygen without asking, without showing any favor, without taking a price. It is a matter of regret that we become the enemies of these friends of ours and start running saws on their necks. In fact nature is a very good friend of us. Without taking anything from us it provides us all the resources to live here. It gives us water to drink, pure air to breathe, food to eat, land to live on, animals for our other uses, plants etc for our betterment. Should we harm our partner who cares for us in every way? No! Rather, in return, we should also befriend him, care for him.

There is a huge problem which I feel is that our young generation is growing up living in rooms, be it their own room at home or class room at school. We have stopped leaving space in our homes for courtyards of trees and plants. Our children can see nature in community gardens but not experience growing or tending them themselves. When a person plants a plant with his own hands, he gets emotionally attached to it. He lives another life with the plants. Today, those who plant plants in their homes or balconies, just estimate how much they serve those plants themselves and how much serve them by the gardener? If we continue to consider nature as a showpiece, we will never be able to connect with it, whereas if we consider nature as our friend, then we will also remain evergreen like nature. Anyway, to be evergreen, it is not as important to be evergreen of the body as it is necessary to be evergreen of the mind. This evergreenness can only find by the friendship of nature. If we want to be happy forever, be healthy and have a secure future, then protect nature, do not harm it and stop the deadly changes in the climate. So, do friendship with nature for stay evergreen.

Just think twice while handing over anything to nature !

It is for us to decide whether we want good or bad from nature.  Because nature returns us a manifold of what we entrust to it. It is the nature of Nature.

4 weeks ago I found a sprouted potato in my fridge so I planted it in the soil in a poly bag.  Only water was given.  Today when I searched its roots, I found 5-6 small potatoes.  And if I will be take it late, I will probably got as big potatoes as I planted one.

We entrust a grain of wheat to nature and a plant grows from that grain.  There are dozens of wheat spikes in that one plant.  There are hundreds of grains of wheat in those dozens of earrings.  This is yet another example of how nature returns us manifold.  This is the nature of nature.  That is why when we entrust nature with something good, it gives us good, but when we entrust something bad, it returns us bad.  You will remember the Mumbai floods. In Mumbai, we handed over choked drains from polythene bags to rain water.  As a result we got floods.

When we are continuously giving pollution to nature and playing with the greenhouse of the atmosphere, then how can we expect pure air from nature? Many harmful gases and particles are present in the smoke coming out of factories, which enter the atmosphere and spread air pollution.  The air quality is deteriorating due to the continuous mixing of nitrogen, sulphur, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide gases in the air.  Air pollution is extremely dangerous for the health of humans and other living beings.  Air pollution is considered to be the biggest responsible factor for haze and acid rain in the atmosphere.  Air pollution is continuously giving rise to the problem of global warming by damaging the ozone layer.  It is dangerous to the health of organisms and ecosystems.  Most of the air pollution is caused by chemicals, dust, vehicular smoke and harmful gases present in the environment. According to an estimate, the amount of oxygen it takes to breathe 1135 people in a minute is equal to the pollution spread by a motor vehicle.  Nitrogen oxides and nitrogen dioxide are also produced by the burning of diesel and petrol in vehicles, which combine with hydrocarbons in sunlight to produce a chemical haze.  Carbon monoxide gas emitted from air conditioners and vehicles in cities is also increasing air pollutants.

With the increase in the amount of acid in the soil due to the use of chemical fertilizers, now there is a shortage of micronutrients like zinc and boron.  Its adverse effect is falling on the soil, it is also affecting the health of human beings.  By adding chemical fertilizers, the land gives one or two yields, after that the land is not able to uniform the production continuously, the main reason for this is that due to the misuse of the power of the land due to the use of chemical fertilizers in large quantities, there is a decrease in the continuous production. By using chemical fertilizers and seeds, we may get a quick crop, but it will neither be a good crop, nor beneficial for the farmers.

In the greed of growing vegetables in large quantities, some people are not missing out on using oxytocin, a drug used by animals. Doctors say that instead of organic manure, the consumption of these green vegetables grown on the strength of chemical elements can harm health. This can lead to fatal diseases like cancer, digestive and heart disease. Vegetables such as fresh, green gourd, luffa, pumpkin, nanua, brinjal, capsicum etc. are being grown in abundance in the shops even in the off season.  Many such medicines and injections have come in the market with hybrid seeds, using which such vegetables are produced much ahead of time.  But their side effects have also been seen on human hormones.

Same is the case with milk production.  In order to increase the milk of cows and buffaloes, injections called oxytocin are being used indiscriminately.  Due to this, the milk becomes thick but it is also harmful for human beings.

That is why we should always remember that whatever we give to nature, it returns us by multiplying it manifold, so we should give the best to nature if we want to get good for ourselves.
