I have labeled this picture
“living in harmony with nature”

One can get entranced just looking at this image..
All plants look native.. and the Buddha’s statue
So perfectly positioned.

Giving out message of Peace and Tranquility.

Why can’t we live in Harmony with nature…?
Why have affected landscaped gardens….?
Just the nature takes it course and we should build around it.
We should raise our voices and take a firm stand
When the construction companies cut down trees brutally …
When the rocks of Hyderabad are blown up..
Is this development..?
We are destroying the earth.
What will we give to our future generation.....?!
We should be careful about the carbon foot prints we leave behind.

says & I quote:
“We moderns don’t live in harmony in nature, and one consequence of our inharmonious existence is the manatees’ near-extinction”.
He adds:
“To live harmoniously with nature is to understand and accept natural forces.
The greater this understanding and acceptance, the greater the harmony.
Because we know so much more today than we did before about physics, chemistry, meteorology, biology, physiology,
metallurgy, and on and .
We should accept nature's logic and work with it”.
As a consequence; by not living in harmony with nature we upset natures balance.
