    Is SUSTAINABILITY a recent trendy term?
    COEXISTENCE WITH NATURE has been an integral part of all ancient
    cultures, including India.

    This is evident from the various religious, cultural, and traditional


    practices; rituals; art and sculptures; and folklores that still remain alive in
    different ways in the daily lives of Indians.
    ’Do not harm the environment, do not harm the water and the flora, earth is
     

    my mother, I am her son, may the waters remain fresh, do not harm the
    waters…. Tranquility be to the atmosphere, to the waters, to the crops and
    vegetation”- Atharva Veda,

    The chief of all the virtues which the


    authors have summed up is the
    partaking of food that has been shared
    with others, and the preservation of
    the main fold life of other creatures
    A look at the ancient Indian literature shows us innumerable references to the
    management, preservation, and protection of environment.

    Ancient texts replete with verses that talk of protecting the natural resources,
    which help us to understand the ancient ideas behind environmental conservation
    and the insistence on maintaining a balance within the forest ecology.

    Besides the ancient texts, from an archeological point of view the presence of
    highly advanced city planning, sewage system, and water management
    techniques in the Indus-Saraswati civilization speak of the importance that our
    ancients placed on living in harmony with the natural environment.
