One learned man says, “What right do we have to cut a rice plant for our living?” In a sense, we are commiting a sin by cutting them!! It means we are as good as the paddy straws, and they have equal rights to share the planet!!
It is indeed true that our earth is so beautiful. It is equally dreadful during volcano/tonado/earthquakes. As long as we respect nature and its law we are always blessed.

There is also saying from Subhashita Sangraha
परोपकाराय फलन्ति व्रिक्षाः परोपकाराय वहन्ति नद्यः ।
परोपकाराय दुहन्ति गावः परोपकारार्थमिदं शरीरम् ॥
paropakaaraaya phalanti vrikShaaH paropakaaraaya vahanti nadyaH |
paropakaaraaya duhanti gaavaH paropakaaraarthamidaM shareeram ||
Trees give fruits to assist others. Rivers flow to help others.
Cows produce milk to feed others. In the same way, our own human
body should also be employed for the assistance of others.
The concept of Ahimsa should be understood first. This is not to say rice plants should be removed once used. Just came across another thought. Ahimsa is not totally abstaining from killing, which is practically impossible. The inhaled breath, consumed water and food have microbes which are killed by body’s chemicals. Ahimsa deals with least minimum painful treatment to the victim for a mass of living beings- (I do not encourage bali- human/living being sacrifice in this matter).
The food chain in nature is not a human creation. It is how the nature functions.
If the tigers in a forest stop hunting and eating deers, then the tigers will die out of starvation, at the same time deer population will increase and even the deers will die out of starvation due to overpopulation and scarcity of food, and the entire beautiful forest will loose its lush green cover and will be filled with the corpses of deer.
This is just an example of what happens if the delicate natural balance is disturbed
Volcano, Earthquake, etc are all similar actions of nature too. The key is not to cause a natural imbalance via human intelligence. Human intelligence should be used to be in sync with nature to protect and preserve other life forms and humans without disturbing the natural balance.
The picture frm the Kerala is really beutiful…..still these may be the ruins of original beauty….and it is our duty to responsibility to pass these to the future generation without damaging
Yes you are absolutely right rekha. In fact Kerala is one of my favourite travel spots in south India, and I have visited almost entire Kerala
It is our duty to ensure that all the culture and nature are passed on to the future generation not just preserved, but with even larger growth.
The ayurveda, kathakkali, kalaripayattu, aranmula mirrors, the backwaters of alleppey, the beautiful nature, forests, everything has to be enriched and passed on to the future.
