Hinduism, the worlds oldest extant religion, is a complex of spiritualism, philosophy, and scientific research. Hinduism in its key is an integrative system that perceives all things as interdependent ranging from subatomic particles to cosmic dimensions. In this article, we set out on a journey to explore how science meets spirituality in Hinduism by understanding ancient scientific knowledge, universe and ecology present in its texts.

Ancient Scientific Knowledge:The ancient sages and seers of Hinduism were not only spiritual visionaries but also keen observers of the natural world. The Vedas – the oldest religious texts of Hinduism – contain references to several scientific concepts that were well ahead of their time. For example, hymns in Rig-Veda describe the earth as spherical and rotating around its axis which precedes today’s bright discoveries by centuries.

As climate change, pollution, and resource depletion continue to be some of the planet’s biggest challenges, sustainability has become a global concern. Faith-based organizations like gurdwaras can help advocate for environmental stewardship. Gurdwaras as places of worship for Sikhs should practice what they preach by embracing strategies such as energy conservation, waste disposal methods, and water collection that preserves the environment. The above piece explores how Sikh sustainable practices and operations in Gurdwaras tally with religious standards.

Environmental Stewardship according to Sikh TeachingsFrom his inception in the 15th century, Guru Nanak’s Sikhism has always propagated living harmoniously with nature. Sikhism’s core tenets such as “Naam Japna” (remembering God), “Kirat Karni” (honest living), and “Vand Chakna” (sharing with others) are based on maintaining a balanced and ethical lifestyle. Furthermore, according to Guru Nanak’s teachings, it is important to respect all creation since the environment is God-made.

In their holy book Guru Granth Sahib, Sikhs frequently eulogize nature while calling upon humanity to protect it. One example of this is found in one of his hymns where he says that air is principles while water along with earth are parents.
