What is the Significance of Harmony between Man and Nature?

Harmony between man and nature has been continuously emphasized in recent decades. People begin to truly stress the importance of maintaining sustainability in the aspects of environment, economy and society as the planet reaches a potential state of reducing the resources of future generations, in providence of the present generation. Some people do wonder: what is the significance in maintaining this harmonic relationship between man and nature?

An explanation can best be found leading back to the traditional Chinese philosophy Taoism. This religion teaches mankind to respect and protect nature, in order to achieve mutual understanding, friendship and oneness. We are not to forcefully alter the environment to suit our needs, but to follow the principles of nature; else, troubles can be expected from our recklessness. Over the years, Taoism has highlighted central concept of avoiding deliberate and intentional action, especially in the face of nature. The universe works harmoniously according to its own rules, and we are not supposed to demonstrate any interference. Taoists believe that when mankind interferes with the workings of nature, we disrupt the ecology and destroy nature.

Western countries traditionally support dualism in opposition to monism in Chinese culture. Dualism fundamentally denies the interrelationship between man and harmony. Westerners attempt to change nature and the environment, instead of adapting to it, and they do it through advanced technology. One example is the farming methods in California. In contrast to that in China, Westerners are keen on installing sprinklers and constructing greenhouses for growing farm crops and plants, whereas Chinese remain happily united with the weather. Whether nature permits or opposes farming during a particular period of time or at a certain location is completely up to nature itself. Mankind has no say in Mother Nature’s decision making.

Harmony is further accentuated in this century more than it has ever been before. Statistics suggest that Earth is walking on the path of no return. The irrevocable climate change and the permanent results of industrialization – the burning of non-renewable energy resources and the creation of various pollutants in disruption of the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere – has finally challenged mankind’s ignorance in believing that sustainability could be achieved with hostility towards nature. Humans are beginning to realize the significance of harmony between man and nature as the ecology starts to collapse, and we have learn one important thing – we must depend on nature for survival, and we must continue to maintain harmony between man and nature.
