Godhead expresses itself initially as the five elements: sky, wind, fire, water and earth. All creation is but a combination of two or more of these in varying proportions. The characteristic nature of these five elements are sound, touch, form, taste and smell; cognised by ear, skin, eye, tongue and nose. Now, since these are saturated with the Divine, one must use them reverentially and with humility and gratefulness. Use them intelligently to promote the welfare of yourself and others; use them with moderation and with the idea of loving service to all. They are all free and full of precious potentiality. Appreciate the plenty and the preciousness. You know from experience that excessive quantities of wind, fire or water are injurious to health. So, efficient use of these is itself a form of worship. Nature is in essence Divinity itself, lshavasyam idam sarvam: all this is divine. Vasudevassarvamidam: all this is Vasudeva, God. So, tread softly, move reverentially, and utilise gratefully.
