“We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate for having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein do we err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with the extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings: they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.” ― Henry Beston

Symbiosis celebrates the coexistence of humans with nature. No matter how hard we - the humans - try to shield ourselves from the elements of nature, nature finds ways and means to remind us of our deep rooted connect. We are one big family, we did co-exist in close proximity - with respect and concern to each other but the gap has widened - thanks to our ignorance and lack of empathy. Though a harsh reality, we humans also possess the immense capability to correct the course and make it right. It's very much evident in distant lands, away from the madness of our cities, where the thread of connection was never ruptured. Be it in the Savannah of Kenya or the Mighty Himalayas, occupants of these far corners have long realized the importance of co-existence. The very motto of ‘Live & Let Live’ held high.

“If we were to disappear overnight, the rest of the world would get on pretty well. But if they were to disappear, the land’s ecosystems would collapse.” ― David Attenborough
