Hinduism Makes its Way to Copenhagen

Melbourne, Australia: An unprecedented assembly of Hindu Spiritual Leaders at the PWR has issued a Hindu Declaration on Climate Change. “It is a matter of survival,” says the Declaration; “we cannot continue to destroy nature without also destroying ourselves.”

All morning the Hindu Convocation has been meeting, with one seer after another rising to deliver a homily. Australia may not know it, but this is an extraordinary gathering in Melbourne: it includes H H Swami Avdeshanand Giri, Head of the Juna Peeth, the largest group of spiritual leaders in India, and Trustee of the Acharya Sabha, the highest council of authorities on Hindu Dharma.

And it brings together Hindu leaders of India and the modern diaspora, with the leader of the descendants of the ancient Hindu diaspora to Indonesia. The final prayer at the Convocation was said by the head of the High Priests Assembly of the Indonesian Hindu Council.

All the religions of the world have a voice in Copenhagen, except us, said the presenter of the Draft Resolution – “it is important that we create a Hindu voice.” He said, “Would you OM with me if you feel that a reasonable Hindu statement?” And they did!

The Hindu Declaration on Climate Change ends with a remark that notwithstanding the reassurance of Sanatana Dharma’s vision of time and of every dissolution being the preamble to the next creative impulse, “Hindus still know we must do all that is humanly possible to protect the Earth and her resources for the present as well as future generations.”
