The human relationship with the environment
has gone through various stages .In the very
inception of the 'modern man', human being
lived in the state of symbyosis with nature.
Evolutionary it was followed by various stages of
increasing mastery over nature upto the industrial era,
which is characterized by intensive exploytation of
nature.It adversley affects the environment.
In the same time the modern world is currently
exploring the concept of Sustainable Development
which has arisen mainly from environment concerns.
This approach will permit continuing improvments of
quality of life of the people by means of rational
use of resources.
Furthermore the sustainability is defined by words
related to the resilience,viability,health of organisms
and systems. Thus the crux of the sustainability
is the long life and good health of ecosystem and the
indeviduals who are embodied in it.
In the 6th B.C.,Ayurvede,which was derived
from our indegenous knowladge,is defined itself as
science (Veda) of longavity , which was influenced
by the Buddhist and Hindu phylosophys . These
phylosophical approaches explain the world with
the equilibrium state of individuals and the nature;
with the balance of rational use of natural resources;
and through which long life of our ecosystem and the
individuals and the societiesthose are embodied in it.
Thus,can't we use this indegenous
approaches in human sustainable
development?
Can't the 6th B.C. phylosophical approaches be
used as alternative knowladge in
the modern world?
