- Many Seeds, One Garden: Learning from Sacred Groves of IndiaNew Acropolis, Mumbai
Celebrating International Mother Earth Day
Sacred Groves represent an age-old tradition of environmental conservation based on indigenous knowledge, culture and religious practices. Apart from being a repository of rich bio-diversity harbouring many rare species, sacred groves are a living example of the strong symbiotic relationship between human beings and Nature.
On the occasion of International Mother Earth Day, New Acropolis Mumbai in collaboration with Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) invite you to explore the hidden wisdom nature offers. Through a talk & presentation, Environmentalist, historian and author Dr Nanditha Krishna and Philosopher and Director of New Acropolis India Yaron Barzilay will take us on a journey of rediscovering our rich tradition of Sacred Groves. Perhaps in reviving our connection with Mother nature, we will learn to revive and deepen our connection with our own selves.
