Do Not Resist Nature

From the distant past to the infinite future,

Nature creates and completes all things.

Simultaneously, Nature destroys and buries all.

Nature governs the birth, longevity, punishment, and extinction of all.

Animals and plants thrive in Nature's embrace,

While humanity passes from generation to generation under Nature's care.

No species can escape Nature's grasp,

And all grandeur and power pale before its might.

The inscrutable and unparalleled Nature is a living entity,

Perceiving and responding to all.

Nature embraces all but adheres to its own rules and laws.

When all abide by its laws, harmony ensues.

Yet when humanity resists, disasters befall.

A single insect, a small bird,

Are cherished creations nurtured by Nature.

A stream, a mountain,

Manifest Nature's exquisite beauty.

Destroying forests, excavating mountains, filling lakes, damming rivers, reclaiming land from the sea,

Are all acts of resistance against Nature.

Should sleep, don't sleep; should eat, don't eat; should play, don't play; should die, don't die,

Are all defiant against Nature.

Observe all within Nature's domain,

Where everything but humans live in harmony with its creations.

Yet humans, aspiring to reshape and conquer Nature,

However, humans, your thoughts are wrong.

Ultimately, it is not Nature that will be conquered, but humanity itself,

As everything dissolves and merges into Nature.

Follow the path of the Greatest Creator, the path of Nature!

Perhaps therein lies salvation.
