Abstract
Spiritual Ecology is evident when we manage the environment to sustain our lives. In recent years, we have lost the rights of nature. Environment has been damaging the soil, air and water. The well established religious scripture, the Qur’an provide satisfactory guidelines to protect and manage the ecology. Rituals and ceremonies in the traditional communities and families, which used to create a space for spiritual enrichment of ecology, have almost disappeared.
Ancient wisdom offered us some clues to understand what our nature is, and we can create a pattern of living which is harmonious, integrated and balanced. Spirit brings meaning to the matter, matter gives form to spirit. Without spirit, matter lacks life. A tree has body and spirit. Seek the spirit in the practical life of the material world. Spirit is never without matter, matter is never without spirit.
