Summary:Man is the product of nature and part of nature, like all beings living on the Blue Planet (Earth). As all the other species, man is the result of evolution on this planet. Through man, nature and, generally speaking, matter, have learned to know their own inner side. The Judeo-Christian religion considers man to be the king of creation, having the mission of mastering nature. But, in his megalomania, man has misinterpreted the notion of master. A master should take care of his subjects; he is not above nature, but only one of its components. Along his evolution, man has become an enemy of nature, the only one of all species who has turned against it. By analyzing the behavior of Indians, who live in harmony with nature, and that of the Western civilization representatives, who consider themselves above nature and dare to intervene for modifying it, before truly knowing it, Rabindranath Tagore addresses MEN and invites them to reharmonize themselves with nature. Return to nature and man's reharmonization with nature is the only solution that can grant the survival of both NATURE and MAN, as an earthly being.
