Abstract
To understand the Indian mind and culture one needs to explore the attitude that the Indian people have adopted towards nature. The Indian view is both the cause and the effect of man's involvement in and with nature. Geographical conditions have been responsible for shaping the Indian mind and life, but Indian thought has also given a distinct perspective on nature. This dual character of man's relation to nature has imparted a uniqueness to the Indian attitude towards nature.
