We pray to the earth as Mother Earth. But she has been exploited by mixing poisonous fertilizers into the land, which is affecting our environment and injuring our health. We have a tradition of honoring rivers. Pouring so much industrial waste and garbage into the river is not the way to worship.

These elements provide us with all our needs and alot depends upon our understanding and use of them. To honor, respect and take the utmost care: this would be the greatest offering to god and to Mother Earth. « return. |
