“Creating the world, God has made it a place to practice spirituality.”

 “The environmental crisis caused by humanity’s exploitation of nature is leading to the depletion of renewable resources, destruction of forests, and overuse of land for agriculture and habitation. Today pollution is contaminating air, land, and water. This crisis cries out for an immediate and urgent solution.”

From, “Sikh Faith Statement,” complied under the guidance of Sri Singh Sahib Manjit Singh and reprinted in Faith in Conservation by Martin Palmer with Victoria Finlay, published by the World Bank, 2003

   
 

Sikhs cultivate an awareness and respect for the dignity of all life, human or otherwise. Such respect is fostered where one first recognizes and nurtures the divine inner spark within oneself, then sees it and cherishes it in others.
