Throughout scripture, we are frequently reminded of God’s close relationship to the environment. Too many believers fail to recognize the importance of the natural world as a spiritual place of worship.
Sikhism follows 300 year cycles which are assigned by chosen Sikh leaders. The most recent one has finished in 1999. The next current cycle which ends in 2299 is the Cycle of the Environment. A concern for the environment is an important part of an integrated approach to life and nature. Because all creation is united by the same beginning and ending, we as believers must have concern for a healthy relationship with the rest of creation.
