Sat nam,
I came across this beautiful blog by a Sikh.
Perhaps many of you will enjoy it as much as I did.

excerpt:
"Wonderful are the animated beings and their distinctions, their forms and colours. Wonderful are the creatures that go about naked. Wonderful are the winds, and the waters, and the fires that play wonders. Wonderful is the earth, and the sources of its production."
Asa Ki Vaar, Guru Nanak
Would we be able to survive without the care and provisions that EARTH gives to us ? The earth provides us with air, water, food, soil, moisture, warmth, cold, rain and endless more things. Should we take the earth for granted? Should we treat the earth as a material commodity, and expect it to provide endless quantities of food, water and air for our endless consumption and waste? Is the earth a slave to the human desires and whims?
Humans need the earth more than the earth needs them. Despite our infliction of constant selfish violence on the earth's body, in thought and action, the earth has continued to cradle and hug us, feed and water us, and provide for all our needs and well-being. How can we describe such as profound relationship of supreme and infinite benevolence service? How should we modern day humans consider this intricate, yet unequal, uneven, relationship. Does the earth deserve our appreciation and respect?
