REFLECTION QUESTION
Nature Practice Gratitude for Earth

Kathleen Dean Moore says that a sense of gratitude leads to a sense of moral obligation. Do you agree? How do we cultivate a sense of gratitude as individuals, and as a society?

Dnyanada Bhide 10/23/2019 10:55 AM

Yes I do. In some cultures they practice those as an individual and as an society by assigning a particular day in a year for that animal, plant or a person. For example in India they have a day for Oxen. In old days all the farming was done with the help of a bull/ox. So one day a year people ate food that was hand grown, where no bulls were used. This leads to people appreciating the work ox do.
Some of the old cultures have similar things as a part of religion so people will follow it.
Now a days the earth day is celebrated with similar idea.

  Hi Dnyanada! Yes, most of the focus on environmental degradation and/or environmental irresponsibility is on how it affects people. It is important to include our resident animals & plants in all environmental protection policies. :-)
