Duality of Nature


Nature…. Something which pleases us and give peace in their Environment. Everything around us like  Awesome Blue Water, Green green trees, Deep Valleys, High and Delightful Mountains with soft and Fresh air, Waves of sea and its voice, Constantly Flowing river...etc…. These all things came into our mind when we came in front of the word Nature. These all things helps us survive but at the same time it became disastrous for Human existence or survive.

In the whole over this world each and everything consists of two opposite side. For Example Living being divided in two gender Male and Female, Woman and Man. Coin also has Head and tale and anything which has positive as well as Negative side of it. Medicine which gives relief from pain but it also have some side effects which weaken our body parts. In the same manner in the lap of the Nature we get peace and also can feel like that whole treasure of the world is only in Nature but sometimes it proves Dangerous and disastrous which take the lives of people and also affect the Everyday life.

Nature as Teacher

Wordsworth use to consider nature as teacher and according to him nature teach us life lessons. Which idea is very deeply rooted in Indian Vedas and Puranas. In ancient India, people worship the nature as God and and get life lessons from it.
पिबन्ति नद्यः स्वयमेव नाम्भः 
स्वयं न खादन्ति फलानि वृक्षाः ।
नादन्ति सस्यं खलु वारिवाहाः 
परोपकाराय सतां विभृतयः ॥

Means Flowing river never drink their own water still they quench the thirst of people. Trees also do not eat their own fruit and clouds which provide water for grain but not eating grain in these way everything in nature complete our necessity with any wish in back. So human also should be like Tree, River and Cloud to help another person.

Different Use of Nature

People use nature for different purposes like...For surviving necessity to get water, food, house and Clothes. Some people get joy and peace in nature while some get relief from every problem and look far far away from this worldly burden. People use nature as an Escape from the world of reality and use to live with the world of Illusion in nature.

Duality in Nature

In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide by R.L. Stevenson we find two different and extreme opposite side of Human nature in the same way Nature has also two face or Duality. At one side it gives peace and free mind from whole the world...which cuts our connection with society and joined us with the real world in the world of beauty and Romance called Nature. Secondly sometimes nature proves dreadful and dangerous because of Natural calamities which take the lives of hundreds of people in only one stroke. There is one proverb in Gujarati that…"જે પોષતું તે મારતું…" Nature which complete our life and to some extent it also end our life. "Manvi Ni Bhavai" novel by Pannalala patel is the great example of the evil side of nature. Novel centers around the Femine in gujarati locally known as "છપ્પાનીયો દુષ્કાળ" This novel proves that how harsh a nature can be.


Nature as Strength

 Like everyone, I also feel a very deep connection with nature. Nature which provide strength and spirit to do such things. Generally when we sit with nature it strengthen our inner mind to do things and believe in yourself. Breeze at sea coast and Soft air at the top of the health delight our heart deeply and freshen up our whole body.


In Modern world the concept of nature is changed. In our busy schedule we can't get time to chilled with nature. So people get tired from their life they find a place in nature.

Every writer or anyone who try to connect nature with Life. Nature is an integral part of life. Our life created around nature and from which there is the birth of culture. So we never imagine our life without nature.Here I would like to put one poem by Krush Dave who try to connect nature with education...

At last I would like to put some images...





Thank you........
