Greenery – A Heaven in Itself

Greenery has become much more important and essential in the current scenarios when the unplanned urbanization is at its peak. Green spaces in the cities are as indispensable. Even the famous scientist Sir Isaac Newton has also said “Nature is pleased with simplicity, and is no dummy”.

Well, nature has a positive impact on human beings. It assists us in reducing our anger, stress and also increases the pleasant feelings within us. Nature not only supports us emotionally but also helps us reduce BP levels and muscle tension. Mainly, nature contributes to our physical wellbeing in every possible way. Compared to the treatments of patients in hospitals, rate of recovery is way faster when it comes to treatment done by nature.

Our environment is at a stage of collapsing because the increase in heat energy is shearing down the system. We, humans have to work a lot to reduce the effects of this impediment. Not only is the ozone layer vanishing but.

water resources are also getting polluted. Our rainforests are rapidly shrinking in size, and the cause of this is ignorance. People still think that if we do not care, these problems can be averted. But that is completely wrong. Granted, there are many people who do more than their share when it comes to saving our planet, but it still is not enough.

To prevent all hell from breaking lose on mother Earth, before it does, necessary measures have to be taken up in such an indigenous way, where it is practically impossible for those problems to rise from the dead once again. ” Environmentalists and a few voluntary citizens came up with a few methods to clean up this mess once and for all. “

These initiatives were started in the forms of drives and awareness programs which were then implemented as rules by governments of countries in the forms of bans, penalties for abuse of these rules and many more such ways.

This was the very motive of Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul Bangalore when a ‘Green Drive’ was organized in this institution. The Green Drive was mainly aimed at making students aware of the current environmental problems and the problems caused to the human race by them. The presence of His divine holiness Parampujya Shree Devkrushnadasji Swamiji, Parampujya Krushnacharandasji Swamiji, on this special day indeed made it more auspicious and filled with passion. Students, overflowing with zeal, took part in the event of planting trees in the Gurukul campus.

HDH Parampujya Shree Devkrushnadasji Swamiji himself took part in the proceeding, filling awe in the hearts of his devotees and the students present in the vicinity during this event. Over 200 trees were planted over a span of 3 hours by 780 students. Trees like Neem, Peepal and Areca palm were planted with the fact in mind that these types of trees produce more oxygen, thus supplying Gurukulites with fresh air every day.

We at Shree Swaminarayan Gurukul Bangalore have taken the step towards a Brighter future, a GREENER FUTURE. It is now your turn.
