He shrunk back, his audacity dwizzening under the teneberous gloom of the giant’s long shadow.

“The ecological crisis is only an externalization of an inner malaise and cannot be solved without a spiritual rebirth of Western man […] It is still our hope that as the crisis created by man's forgetfulness of who he really is grows and that as the idols of his own making crumble one by one before his eyes, he will begin a true reform of himself, which always means a spiritual rebirth and through his rebirth attain a new harmony with the world of nature around him. Otherwise, it is hopeless to expect to live in harmony with that grand theophany which is virgin nature, while remaining oblivious and indifferent to the Source of that theophany both beyond nature and at the centre of man's being […] Few are willing to look reality in the face and accept the fact that there is no peace possible in human society as long as the attitude toward nature and the whole natural environment is one based on aggression and war. Furthermore, perhaps not all realize that in order to gain this peace with nature there must be peace with the spiritual order. To be at peace with the Earth one must be at peace with Heaven.”
― Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Man and Nature: The Spiritual Crisis in Modern Man

“दुआएँ तो हमेशा-हरसंभव दी ही होंगी लेकिन जब कभी भी मन बहुत ज्यादा दुखा होगा, न चाहते हुए भी बद्दुआएँ भी कभी मन से निकली होंगी. तो फिर क्या मन से निकली हुई उन बद्दुआओं का पश्चाताप होता है ? कभी होता है अनु दा, कभी नहीं होता. शायद होना चाहिए, लेकिन कभी-कभी फिर भी नहीं होता. कोशिशें की जाएँ तो भी नहीं होता !”
