United in Nature
O God beautiful, O God beautiful,
At Thy feet, O I do bow!
O God beautiful, O God beautiful,
In the forest Thou art green;
In the mountain Thou art high;
In the river Thou art restless;
In the ocean Thou art grave;
O God beautiful, O God beautiful,
At Thy feet, O I do bow!
O God beautiful, O God beautiful,
To the serviceful Thou art service;
To the lover Thou art love;
To the sorrowful Thou art sympathy;
To the yogi Thou art bliss.
O God beautiful, O God beautiful,
At Thy feet, O I do bow!
O God beautiful, O God beautiful!
Hope you all have heard this poem... Till today this poem by Guru Nanak lingers in our ears as and when we think of the beauty of nature.
Nature gives us enormous things to ponder over. The very history of the world starts with the origin of natural components.
Biologically, so far, we are nature's highest evolutions. Geographically we are oriented towards the land in which we make our sustenance possible.
We have the utmost responsibility to safeguard the home we live in.
This beautiful nature tells us three things...
1. We are the co workers in the marvelous creation of God.
2. As nature is an systematic entity, being evolved from nature, we too have to systematise our life.
3. We are nowhere greater unless we are united.
Thus let's be united in the creative work of God as one human community.
Let's Pray:
Lord of the Universe, create in me a clean heart to cleanse my surroundings and make me conscious in what I do. Amen.
