We are ONE

. by Samarpita Mukherjee Sharma

When Europeans first came they could drink out of the river water in Native American land.If they had lived like the Indians, they would be able to drink the river water today, as the air is sacred, the water is sacred. Our DNA is the same as tree – the relationship between humans and the tree is symbiotic. We are all from the earth and when the earth water, atmosphere is corrupted then it will create it’s own reaction.

The world has become a “market” and this market we have to deal with. There are boundless and endless resources- but resources are actually our family and they deserve our respect. The structure of the world is such that it functions on natural law- natural law is based on regenerative growth. If you challenge natural law, you are bound to fail because the natural law has no mercy. The earth has it’s own process and if it comes to the point where humanity disappears, earth will continue to exist and the world, no matter what damage you have done to it will regenerate and re green except there would not be any people- because it’s got all the time in the world.

As you come down the final stretch and you face a stone wall, you do not stop but instead accelerate- that is a corollary to excessive use of resources leading to disaster. Every day that you don’t do what is right, you have lost an option – no tree is grown alone- it is grown in a community which provides natural medicines- so by destroying the trees, you are destroying the communities and life, Replanting trees is not replanting the community- you would have lost a community. Of 100 dominant economic units in our day, 49 are countries and 51 are corporations- corporations are the driving force of decision making today and they are not concerned with the community, human lives – these corporate states can destroy the world. People have to become aware and awake- they need to challenge the existing paradigm which is driven by economy, not community. Everyone should be a leader. It is your duty to look after all life- you have to look after the trees, the fish, the animals, everything that grows, everything with life
