We have a Sacred Bond with the Environment

Day 37: This subject of total well-being would not be complete without considering the environment.  Wouldn’t you say? Our physical bodies are part of the environment.  Our bodies are part of the natural environment. If we pollute the environment, we are polluting our bodies and you see that; air pollution, water pollution, and food pollution, with many pesticides and chemicals.  It comes back to us through the food we eat and the air we breathe.  We share molecules with our world.   We breathe in air molecules, we take in food molecules and we give them back out. Our body is in a dynamic relationship with the environment through everything we eat, drink and breathe.

Doesn’t this say that if we are to take care of our bodies, we need to take care of our environment?  Have you been taking care of your environment?  Have you been conscious of the living world around you and what it means?  We are connected to this world; we have a sacred bond with the environment.  The same Spirit that moves within us, that same Source of all the energy within us; that Supreme Consciousness that exists within the core of our being, is also in the natural environment.  The entire living world, all of Nature is an expression of the same consciousness that is within us.
