THE NECESSITY OF HARMONY BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL AND ENVIRONMENT
Dr. K. R. Subramanian*
ABSTRACT
There are constant changes in the environment ? it comes about at a slower pace than changes to the individual as he goes through the stages of childhood, adolescence, youth, adulthood and old age. The changes to the individual are irreversible during his short life time. The environmental changes are also not static, but society and individuals adjust to these changes. While certain environmental changes can be avoided or delayed, this very much depends on the individual?s Aim and Objectives of life. So, it is this aim and objectives of life that determines the Harmonious blending of individual and his environment. The objective of individuals may or may not be fulfilled during his life time; but he can make progress towards the same so that the succeeding generations can enjoy the fruits of his actions. In fact this interaction between the individual and environment in society is what is called Life or History of Life. History is HIS-STORY of how he has lived a life of fulfillment in harmony with his environment. Man?s sojourn or his term, is limited by his life time. But history of man continues and the environment exists with whatever he does to it. So, it is but natural that man co-exists with his environment with Harmony so that future generation of humans may thank him.
