Extreme weather, global recession and a pandemic – Shamini

Extreme weather conditions, a global recession, trade wars, and a pandemic. Are we as a collective, compelled to change? It cannot be denied that the world will never be the same again post 2020.

P. R. Sarkar said: ” Our world needs a great change in order to move forward. A new wave will have to take place of the old, in order to remedy the ills of the world.”

I want to be part of that change!

I would like to see a different world. One that offers clean air, land and water as a result of a thriving global ecosystem. Governments that base their system of governing on benevolence and welfare for all instead of inequity and inequality. Everybody having access to proper healthcare (really important in times of COVID!), education, shelter, food and clothing. Society on an individual level, to feel love and an interconnectedness with each other and that the divisiveness of race, culture and caste are dissolved and in fact celebrated.


YogaEcology offers a platform that addresses such issues. The mass mind often perceives social activism as being separate from spirituality. I believe if we search deep within ourselves we might be able to find a platform where they actually co-exist, like two sides of a coin. It seems convincing to me that when we go even deeper still, a desire for something greater is ignited. That awakening is what naturally arouses a love for all beings. Our responsibility for environmental stewardship is evoked. The compulsion to act against injustice and protect the vulnerable follows logically from this awakening
