Article Traditionally, Affection With Rivers - Dr (Ms) Sharad Singh Writer, Author & Social Activist Blogger - "Climate Diary Of Dr (Ms) Sharad Singh" Both water and environment are essential elements of life. Life is not possible without water and availability of water is not possible without healthy environment. Our sages had proper knowledge of the environment. He also understood the mutual harmony between the inanimate world i.e. earth, rivers, mountains, plateau etc. and the animate world i.e. human beings, animals, plants, vegetation etc. and denoted this harmony as an essential element of the environment. He understood that The balance of nature can be disturbed due to the damage of any of the inert and animate elements. That's why he propounded respect towards every element. So that humans do not harm any element. We gradually forgot these ancient values, as a result of which today we have to face the crisis of environmental imbalance.
