AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada says .

The great mistake of modern civilization is to encroach upon others’ property as though it were one’s own and to thereby create an unnecessary disturbance of the laws of nature. These laws are very strong. No living entity can violate them.Only one who is Krishna conscious can easily overcome the stringency of the laws of nature and thus become happy and peaceful in the world.

As a state is protected by the department of law and order, so the state of Universe, of which this earth is only an insignificant fragment, is protected by the laws of nature.This material nature is one of the different potencies of God, who is the ultimate proprietor of everything that be. This earth is, therefore, the property of God, but we, the living entities, especially the so-called civilized human beings, are claiming God’s property as our own, under both an individual and collective false conception.If you want peace, you have to remove this false conception from your mind and from the world. This false claim of proprietorship by the human race on earth is partly or wholly the cause of all disturbances of peace on earth.

End ..

We should know of the self-evident truth of all living beings and respect others’ cultures and lands .

Modern-day global conglomerates that drive greed  monopolies worldwide are  destroying ancient cultures and family traditions. They also destroy the local environments, destroy creatures of all kind , and exploit endlessly local resources for their needs and very often poison the land filling it full of plastics and chemicals.

We should all understand simple living and the high thinking associated with the principles of karma yoga,  jnana yoga,  niskama karma yoga,  astanga yoga, and ultimately the unifying force of Bhakti yoga and described in the Vedas .
