Question

What aspects of our spirituality might we draw on to help us address the global water crisis?

Answer 1

Spirituality can help us realize the core meaning and value of conserving water. It will prevent us to misuse and deplete the water resources. Through spirituality we start looking at the world in a different and creative way. The awareness of human spirituality would bring us to deeply think and hold on to the fact that water has an intrinsic value and thus it will result in bringing true respect for earth and its natural resources. Water, has always been a symbol of spiritualism and essential part of ritual in communities for years.We should help ourselves and others to realize the true sacredness of water in human society and its symbolism of life and that that life cannot exist with the constant misuses and depletion of water. Spirituality draws an aspect of respect and realization of the true conviction of water in human life..Sadly though, due to constant depletion and misuse of water resources now-a-days there is a lot of water crisis throughout the globe, resulting in constant illness, starving, deaths in places due to unavailability of water. We can help conserve water through bringing out the respect and importance of water and help conserve water in our own individual ways. Also spiritualism and religious believes  say  abusing water is like insulting God. So keeping points in mind we should hold on to save earth and make it a healed and better place to live in by saving not only water but also other natural resources that are very important.
