Ecological living is about *protecting and preserving the environment of
planet Earth, through recognising the uniqueness of its various ecosystems
and species*. Every individual habitat supports all manner of life.  HOW TO
LIVE ECOLOGICALLY:

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Nature’s wrath is currently wreaking havoc on the entire planet. This
situation is not only proving to be detrimental for the human race, but it
is also causing severe harm to other sentient species. This undesirable
state of affairs is largely caused by human beings, who have broken the
cosmic laws and caused environmental degradation to an unprecedented level.
All human efforts to preserve Nature in the name of planting trees,
restraining the use of plastic and opting for eco-friendly products have
had little impact on the health of the planet. The need of the hour,
therefore, is total change, wholesome approach, holistic view, and
organismic well-being.

The Vedas are the world’s oldest texts. They focus on a natural code of
conduct and an all-encompassing cosmic law that encompasses every spec of
the universe, from a tiny ant to the massive galaxies. In contrast to
Western and Abrahamic thought, where the environment is viewed as isolated
and human-centric, the Vedic perspective on environment is devoid of any
splits. Each life is wholesome and is a vital part of the ‘One Whole
Reality.’ This thought makes Bhārata as not only an environmentally
protective but also an environmentally conscious
nation that propagates ‘Unity in Diversity’. In this regard the Bhagvadgītā
states, I equivalently in-dwell in all creatures. I have no likes or
aversions towards any life form
*mayā tatam idaṁ sarvaṁ jagad avyakta-mūrtinā mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni na
chāhaṁ teṣhvavasthitaḥ 9.4  *

Further, the Īśopaniṣad asserts: The entirety of cosmos is pervaded by
Īśvara who is the ‘Self’ of all movable and immovable entities. It is
therefore clear that the entire cosmos is a manifestation of the non-dual
‘Ultimate.’ The Vedas propound that the Divine not only envelops the entire
cosmos, but also indwells all entities and manifests Himself as the dog,
the sparrow, the Ganges, and the entire material and immaterial world. The
following verses shed light on the same, Therefore, according to the Vedas,
‘Environment’ should be understood with the connotation of ‘Brahman’. Thus,
there exists unity among all entities that are born and nourished in the
compassionate lap of ‘Mother Nature’.

The term “Environment*/*Nature” must not be limited to trees, animals,
birds, rivers and mountains, rather “It” is internal, external, individual,
cosmic, exclusive and non-exclusive. It is to be recognised that it is
human’s inner contamination, unrest, and mental greed that manifests as
external pollutions, and disharmony. ‘Mother Nature,’ nurtures every being
till we respect Her. However, if we try to exploit Her, She responds
internally as metal stress, physically as diseases, environmentally as
natural calamities, and universally as cumulative disharmony. Outer acts of
environmental protection can aid us in our mission to support the cosmos,
but they are far from being a permanent cure for cosmic discord. In this
regard, Svāmī Vivekānanda aptly states,

“The miseries of the world cannot be cured by physical help alone. Unless a
man’s nature changes, physical needs will continue to arise and miseries
will continue to be felt. No amount of physical help will cure these
miseries. Ignorance is the mother of all evils and of the misery that we
see. Let man have light, let them be pure, spiritually strong and educated;
then alone misery will cease. We may convert every house of the country
into a charitable asylum and fill the land with hospitals but the misery
will continue to exist until man’s character changes”

He who sees the Self in all and all in the Self has no sense of revulsion
by the reason of the vision of non-duality. When all beings have been
realized as the ‘Self’ there remains no delusion and no sadness.The Vedas
regard ‘Nature’ as all-encompassing and holds an intimate relationship with
*It*. They refer to ‘*It*’ as not only the ‘Highest Reality,’ but also
revere *Its* various manifestations (sun, moon, rivers, birds, etc.) as
mother, father, protector, friend, son, and more. ‘Environment’ is that
‘Unitary Principle’ which the Vedas have spoken about repeatedly. All
beings of the universe are indwelled, saturated and are that very
‘Principle’ which they mistakenly consider as distinct. This non-dual Vedic
vision elevates ‘Mother Nature’ to the highest plinth. As a result, the
Vedas instruct us to work for the good of all beings instead of being
limited to only the human race. Let us now consider some Vedic averments
about Environmental harmony.

   ‘Bhūmi’ is depicted by the Vedas as a compassionate, benevolent,
nurturing, and bountiful ‘Mother’ who nurtures all creatures without
discrimination. She is revered, and hymns of Her majesty adorn the entire
body of the Vedas.  She is the one who bestows cosmic peace and prosperity.
Her grandeur can be understood by the following verses, The ‘Earth’ just
like the Mother Cow, confers upon all the creatures the gifts of delight.
She nurtures and provides for all.[ix]

May
Goddess Earth, the nourisher of all beings eradicates all evils and lead us
to the highest state of being.

‘Āpaḥ’ is regarded by the Vedas as ‘Divine’ ‘Life’, ‘Nectar’ and as the
finest of ‘Physicians’. It is no wonder that all important pilgrimages were
set up near water bodies. The Vedas declare water as the best of
medicines. In Its absence no medicine can work and it is the greatest of
healers. It can cure all maladies including genetic and cardiovascular
disorders. In this regard the Vedas state:

‘Vāyu’ is the life force, and the cosmic breath. The Vedas contain a number
of hymns that extol ‘It.’ The meaning of the word ‘Vāyu’ as the ‘Uniting
Ultimate Principle’ has been expounded in the Śatapathabrāhmaṇa,The entire
universe is woven in a string and that string is ‘Vāyu’. Unfortunately, the
human race has done incalculable harm to ‘It’ while shrouded in ignorance.
Polluted air not only endangers humans, but it also harms animals, birds,
and puts undue strain on trees and plants. Every year, thousands of humans,
animals, and birds die prematurely as a result of air pollution.

‘Ākāśa’ and sound are inextricably linked, and this is the source of noise
pollution. Taittiryopaniṣad (Yajurveda) discusses two types of Ākāśa i.e.,
one within the body and one outside of it. However, human has not only
polluted his inner space but is going on polluting the outer spaces. All of
this has not only added to the planet’s pollution but in his desire to
conquer outer space, he has added to space debris.  The Yajurveda advises
the human race:Do not destroy the space

‘Agni’ is both divine and purifying. ‘It’ is the destroyer of greed,
passion, and ignorance on a philosophical level. At a mundane level, it is
the destroyer of negativities and diseases. In a spiritual sense, It burns
away selfish desires and leads to a state where cosmic welfare becomes
one’s vision and mission. According to the Yajurveda’s Navagṛhasūktam:The
light of wisdom Agni! Let us be vigilant while we work for ourselves and
for all creatures of the cosmos. May we all remain together, even with the
departed souls of our forefathers with whom you connect us like a thread.
Therefore, it is clear that Fire is meant for the benefit of all.
Unfortunately, humans manipulate it in the most atrocious manner. Fire is
used to burn down forests and various animals that live in them in order to
capture land for the sake of high-end infrastructure. It is used to incite
riots and destroy national property, as well as to burn a young girl for
dowry. All of these crimes sprout from tainted internal states, and as long
as we do not burn the dirt that we hold within, we will go on
destroying the world.

  The Vedic verses revere forests, trees, plants and herbs as conscious
divine beings that provide Amṛta (oxygen), Ouśadhi (herbs), Anna (food),
Phala (fruits), Puṣpa (flowers), Cāyā (shade), Saundarya (beauty) and
Jīvan (life). Tree are encrusted with divinity and so, the five parts that
they have – Jada (roots), Prakāṇda (trunk), Śākhā (branches), Patra
(leaves), Phala (fruits) and Puṣpa (flowers) are a boon to the universe.
They are called Viśadūśaṇī’ because they are the destroyers of poison
(pollution). Therefore, uprooting a tree means uprooting the entire cosmos,
and cutting down a tree means cutting down one’s own survival. In this
regard the Vedas make it clear,Extend no violence towards Trees Do not cut
or uproot them for they are the destroyers of pollution  Forests, trees,
herbs and mountains are said to be the protectors of all.

The Ṛigveda further highlights,

‘The Divine trees and curative herbs appeared three Yugas before the
emergence of Deities and billions of years before the origin of any other
being. The ‘Divine’ manifested as trees, herbs and plants at various places
on the earth. These Godly appearances were meant to destroy pain,
suffering, ailments and heal wounds of all living creatures. They further
remove infections and weakness. They have a positive and wholesome effect
and lead to complete wellness. Trees and herbs nurture, protect and bless
all lives with material and spiritual advancement like a mother and thus
they are also referred to as ‘Mātraḥ’. The Holy Trees and plants lead us
to Mokṣa by destroying diseases, misery and take us beyond the realm of
birth and death. Trees and herbs have supreme powers and those creatures
who submit to them are bestowed with lifelong wellness. Without any
discrimination between man and animal, these saintly trees and herbs have
equally blessed all beings.

The Vedas also declare that the plant kingdom is conscious and sensitive,
like humans and animals. They are born, they die, they experience
pain-pleasure, they sleep, they are susceptible to illness, and they bleed
when they are broken, uprooted, or cut down. The Mahābhārata in this regard
states:

“Trees and plants drink water through their roots and make their food
through sunlight. They digest the food due to the presence of Vāyu and Agni
that is within them. When they are injured, they experience unimaginable
pain. They are affected by pleasant and foul smells. They do fall sick and
feel weakness and wellness. A creeper exactly knows how and where to climb,
this proves that they have a divine vision (in Indian philosophy vision and
sight are separate. A being may not have sight which is connected to
material eyes but it has a vision which is connected to the inner states of
being). Despite being physically strong, trees are extremely sensitive to
weather, kind-harsh words, pure-impure thoughts, good-bad touch’.

‘Vana’ is home to millions of celestial beings. Forests add to the
aesthetics of the planet. The Vedas, in fact, see the entire universe as a
forest in which all beings must live according to their Dharma. However,
today, man has turned a deaf ear to the Vedic voices. Deforestation has
resulted in the destruction of biodiversity, decreased oxygen, extinction
of plant and animal species, damaged ozone layer, global warming, natural
disasters, and climate change.

“in the materials of Agnihotra some elements produce the formaldehyde gas(CH
2O) which spreads in the atmosphere without undergoing any change. Even
carbon dioxide (CO2) transforms to a large extent into formaldehyde gas (CH2O)
which is a strong germicide. This gas is activated only when it comes in
contact with water vapours. This is the reason why the Havankuṇda is
sprinkled with water from all four sides.”

‘Maṇtra’ is a sacred and scientific collection of words, sounds, phonemes,
and syllables. It is a codification of a certain cosmic force that links
the material world and the Supreme Consciousness. Maṇtras are the
primordial rhythms of creation that bring about harmony within and without,
on an individual as well as on the cosmic level, in the Pañcamāhābhūtas and
for the sake of Sarvbhūtahita.

“If a man desires Śyena (inflicting injury upon another), one must do so
entirely because he wishes and not because of any text”

The Practice of ‘Ahiṃsā’ is the foundation of Indian thought and appears
in the Śatapathabrahman as ‘Non-injury’ with the connotation of morality.
The Vedas repeatedly instruct that animals must not be harmed. However,
man’s self-centred approach has driven him to purposefully misconstrue the
Vedic voices. The Yajurveda declares:

“Animals are not to be killed or harmed . They are the bedrock of a
prosperous society. Animals should be protected and must live fearlessly

Today, ‘Animals, Birds, and All Sentient Beings’ exist in fright. Rooted in
ignorance, man has exploited them to the point of absurdity. He slaughters
them savagely for their skin, organs, hanging them up as a piece of décor,
or just devouring them as a meal. The pitiful condition of these celestial
beings is a question mark on human morals, ethics, education and life.
Contrary to this view, animals have been revered in the Vedas as
‘Ṣodaśkalāḥ (bejewelled with sixteen celestial arts)  and as ‘Maḥ
(worthy of worship for their love and grace) They have adorned Indian
culture, art, architecture, philosophy, religion, traditions and life in
general. The Vedic texts consider them to be the manifestation of God
(Vibhūtis). In this regard states the Vibhūtiyogaḥ of the Śrīmad
Bhagwadgīta,

Amongst the horses I am ‘Ucchaṣvā’ that emerged during the churning of the
ocean. Amongst the elephants, know Me as ‘Airāvta’, Amongst the cows, I am
‘Kāmadhenu’. Amongst snakes, I am the ‘King Vāsuki’. Amongst the Nāgas, I
am ‘Ananta’ and amongst water beings, I exist as ‘Varuṇadeva’. Amongst the
animals, I am ‘Mṛga’, ‘Siṁha’ and amongst birds, I am ‘Gruḍa’. As a
purifier of all lives, I am ‘Vāyu’. Amongst the beings of sea, I am
‘Magara’ and amongst sacred rivers, I am ‘The Gaṇgā. I exist as the Ātman
in the hearts of all living creatures and I am the beginning, middle and
end of all these beings.

Each animal, bird and insect is associated with a Deity and embodies Its
energies. Thus, revering that animal necessitates adoring that Deity.
Bulls, dogs, snakes and scorpions are associated with Lord Śiva. Elephants
are worshiped as ‘Gaṇeśa’. Lions are associated with ‘Ādi Śakti Durgā’.
Crocodiles are connected to ‘Goddess Gaṇgā and Yamunā’. Further, in order
to re-establish Dharma, ‘Mahāviṣṇu’ appears as a Maṭsya, Kūrma, Varāha,
Nṛsiṃha and more. Even the smallest of insect is considered Divine.
‘Bhrāmarī’, a wasp who ended the demon Arunāsūra is associated with
‘Goddess Pārvatī’

Gaumātā holds an extraordinary place in Vedas. Her physical, religious,
economic, environmental, social, cosmic, and spiritual vaue is extolled in
the Vedas. She is revered as Goddess Lakṣmī[l
<https://indiafoundation.in/articles-and-commentaries/vedic-averments-for-cosmic-environmental-tranquility/#_edn57>and
must never be killed or harmed (Aghnayeyam). Vedas annonce Her as a noble
being endowed with splendour, divinity, purity, beauty, nonviolence,
tranquillity, knowledge, compassion and the ability to nourish all beings A
society that invests in Her health and wellness flourishes by leaps and
bounds.

‘Ṣvāna (dog)’ is declared as Godly in the Vedas. The Rudramsūkta of the
Kṛṣna Yajurveda states,

I bow to Rudra, who controls the dogs, who is Himself the dog and who
protects the dogs

The Atharvaveda associates Rudra (A fearsome form of Lord Śiva) with
Dogs The Goddess Dog ‘Saramā’ appears in the Ṛgveda. The text also refers
to Dogs as divine messengers and states,

The Vedas advocate an organic cosmology that is devoid of distinctions
which makes it a universal and all-encompassing. It is crucial to recognise
that these timeless scriptures are incredibly scientific and have
influenced many modern breakthroughs, hypotheses, researches and studies.
The Vedas are not at odds with science and technology for as long as it
serves to promote overall well-being. Only when modern science wishes for
human-centric development at the cost of ruthlessly destroying forests,
water bodies and animals is when there is a prominent gap between Vedic
thought and modern science. Only when the entire cosmos is taken into
account with unified vision of wholesome welfare of beings will science be
seen as all-encompassing and complete. At present science exists in a very
limited space. It is for the humans, of the humans and by the humans. All
its developments stand upon the graves of innumerable sentient beings and
on the delicate body of ‘Mother Nature’.

HOW SCIENCE THINK ABOUT

Step 1: Turn it off

Energy conservation is one of the most important things you can do to
reduce your carbon footprint
<https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/what-is-a-carbon-footprint/>. Leaving your
electricals on standby uses unnecessary energy – turn them off at the wall
when you’ve finished using them, and you could see huge improvements.

Step 2: Invest in eco-friendly technology

Want to go further than simply turning it off? If you need to get new
appliances, check their energy-efficiency rating to ensure they’re as
efficient as possible. This way, you’re using much less energy for the time
that the product is on and reducing your energy output.

Looking to make bigger changes at home? You could look into getting a heat
pump <https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/products/heat-pumps/> to heat your home,
and move away from gas or oil central heating for good.

Step 3: Switch to renewables

Choosing 100% renewable electricity is a great eco-friendly tip for any
home – and is one of the biggest things you can do to help tackle the
climate crisis. Unfortunately, due to the current situation in the energy
market
<https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/about-us/whats-happening-in-the-energy-market/>,
it’s best to stay with your existing supplier right now. But you can sign
up to our newsletter to stay up to date with news about renewables and
climate action, and to hear when you’re able to switch again.

Step 4: Eat less meat

Being careful with what you’re consuming is at the heart of being more
environmentally friendly, and cutting down on the amount of meat you eat
can have a huge impact. Not having red meat and eating a more plant based
diet – even if it’s just for two or three days a week – can have quite a
significant impact on reducing your carbon footprint.

Step 5: Don’t waste food

Waste not, want not. Did you know that 9.5 million tonnes
<https://www.businesswaste.co.uk/food-waste-2022-the-facts/> of
food is wasted in the UK every year? This isn’t just a huge waste of food
and money, it adds to the amount of CO2 and methane being created in
landfills.

Step 6: Compost

If your food as gone too far beyond its ‘best by’ date then you could
compost it rather than putting it in the bin. Not only will this help
create a natural fertiliser and keep your garden green, it’ll also reduce
the amount of waste going to landfill – and as it won’t break down
anaerobically, there will not be a build-up of methane gas. If you can’t
compost at home, you could find out if there are any local compost schemes
available, or if your local authority collects food waste alongside other
recycling. Make sure to only compost organic waste to avoid unwanted pests.

Step 7: Recycle everything

Chances are that if you’re pursuing a more eco-friendly lifestyle then
you’ll already be recycling. But could you improve your recycling-ability
(now a word)? You can recycle almost everything, from batteries to paper to
crisp packets to cars. Before you throw it away, take a minute to find out
if you could recycle it instead.

Step 8: Try to cut out plastic

Plastic seems to have found its way into every single aspect of our lives.
However, giving it up isn’t as difficult as you might think – bring a
canvas bag with you when you go shopping, buy your fruit and veg loose and
stop buying bottled water.

There are also more and more shops around where you can bring your own
container for things like nuts, seeds, pasta, oats and more – plus get
refills for soap, shampoo, washing up liquid and laundry detergent.

Step 9: Use LED light bulbs

Not only do LED light bulbs last longer than conventional bulbs, they’re
far more efficient too! This means that you’ll be using less power and
having to replace your light bulbs less frequently – everyone’s a winner.
What’s more, they’re available in a range of brightness and designs so you
can really tailor the lighting to your needs or to suit the room.



Step 10: Insulate your home

Homes that aren’t well insulated are much harder to keep warm when it’s
cold, and cool when the weather is hot. Insulating your home is one of the
best eco-friendly tips
<https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/saving-energy-at-home/> for
your home that we can offer you.

A well insulated home is also the first step to upgrading your home’s
heating system – find out more about our heat pump service here
<https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/products/heat-pumps/>.

Step 11: Have your food shop delivered

Home delivery is like the public transport of groceries. Instead of having
20 odd cars make their way to the supermarket – one van drives around
delivering to everyone in the area (and many supermarkets are upgrading to
an electric fleet, too). Additionally, it means you’re less likely to
impulse buy which can help to reduce any waste food.

Step 12: Fix it, don’t throw it

Repairing or fixing something is more environmentally friendly than simply
throwing it away, although the latter may seem easier and cheaper
sometimes. The internet gives you access to the tools and information you
need to fix practically anything, and if you still can’t fix it then why
not try and turn it into something else?

Step 13: Use eco-friendly cleaning products

A lot of cleaning products have a lot of harmful chemicals in them that
aren’t environmentally friendly to create or dispose of. In fact, repeated
exposure to these cleaning products can affect your health as well as the
environment. Green cleaning products use more natural and organic methods
of cleaning which are far less harmful. Here are some great time-honoured
tips from the National Trust
<https://www.goodenergy.co.uk/blog/2017/08/22/ultimate-guide-eco-friendly-living/>
.

Step 14: Consider your transport

If you can make the journey by foot, bike or public transport, then do it.
Driving, unless you’re in an electric vehicle, isn’t very eco-friendly and
can really add to your carbon footprint. When you do have to drive, make
sure that you get the most out of your vehicle by keeping the speed down,
ensuring tyres are properly inflated and that the engine is running
smoothly.

Step 15: Use your microwave

Honestly, you’d be surprised by how much more energy efficient microwaves
are compared to conventional ovens. While you’re already surprised, you may
as well continue to be shocked with some of the awesome things you can cook
in a microwave
<https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/collection/microwave-recipes> (hint:
it’s not just ready meals).

Or if you are regularly cooking small batches, you could join the air fryer
<https://www.which.co.uk/news/article/oven-air-fryer-slow-cooker-or-hob-comparing-the-cheapest-ways-to-cook-a0kmu7Z7tBhJ>
 hype.

Step 16: Buy local

>From clothes to food, the closer to home these products are made and
bought, the less carbon is created with their transportation. Not only
that, but you’ll be supporting the local economy which means that in time
you’ll likely have even more local items to choose from.

Step 17: Don’t fly

Flying is one of the most environmentally damaging things you can do – just
flying from Bristol to Edinburgh produces 0.15 metric tons of carbon!* Why
not stay a bit closer to home and explore some of Britain’s beautiful
nature? Camping, hiking and cycling are all great things to do in the UK
and are extremely low carbon.

.Step 18: Grow your own

Growing your own vegetables isn’t just a good way to save money, it’s also
a great way to cut down your carbon footprint and be environmentally
friendly. Don’t have any outside space? Windowsill boxes are a great way to
brighten up your view, filter the air coming into your home and offer
plenty of space for herbs and small vegetable patches.

Step 19: Plant some trees

Ecological sustainability is very important when it comes to eco-friendly
living. Without a stable ecosystem, things start to fall apart. Making sure
that we’re planting more native trees to replace those that have been
felled to make room for developments is something that more people and
businesses need to do to protect the environment and improve air quality.

Step 20: Choose your personal care wisely

When it comes to personal hygiene there are several things you need to be
careful to avoid for a truly eco-friendly lifestyle. The most damaging of
these is microbeads, which are small bits of solid plastic which aren’t
biodegradable and make their way into watercourses and ultimately end up
damaging the environment by entering the food chain. Make sure that your
body wash, toothpaste, face scrub and other products do not contain these
beads. In addition to this, avoiding chemicals and opting for natural
cleaning products – like those sold by Lush <https://uk.lush.com/> is the
best way to keep yourself and the environment clean.

KR:    Can anyone do all these? NO never. If one were to say, adopt a few
things at least, then, for A group few not adopted but insisting with
others, may be different in the maintenance of the eco-friendly atmosphere.
So there will always be breaking the rules. May be if the living is made
contented, well, all will get along. But ego and pride thwarts the ECO.
