New Delhi – Elements such as Sattvikta, righteous living, the importance of indigenous Indian cows, and chanting the Divine Name, as found in ancient Indian scriptures, are the true pillars of sustainable development. Not just eco-friendly technologies, but a spiritual perspective rooted in purity is essential to secure the future of humanity and the planet. This research, conducted jointly by Maharshi Adhyatma Vishwavidyalay and the Spiritual Science Research Foundation, was presented at the recently held Rural Economic Forum in New Delhi. The presentation was delivered by Mr Sean Clarke, a member of the research team from Maharshi Adhyatma Vishwavidyalay. The research was guided by the university’s founder, Sachchidananda Parabrahman Dr Athavale.

Key Points from Sean Clarke’s Speech :

Mr Sean Clarke
  • Since the Industrial Revolution, little attention has been paid to the environment in the path of development. Though the concept of “Sustainable Development” was introduced at the 1972 Stockholm Conference, it still hasn’t been implemented effectively even after 50 years.
  • The root of today’s environmental crisis lies in the impure tendencies of the human mind. Therefore, development must not only be a material concept but also spiritually sattvik (pure), which is the central conclusion of the research.
  • In an experiment using GDV Biowell technology, it was observed that adding a few drops of cow urine to bathwater activated and balanced 65–78% of a person’s seven chakras. When consumed, this rose to 90%. The presence of cows increases positive vibrations in the surroundings by 22%. Cow urine showed beneficial effects on skin diseases and general health, indicating that cow-derived products can be a key to prosperity for rural India.
  • The research highlights that many ailments and addictions have spiritual roots. Chanting “Shri Gurudev Datta” helps with de-addiction, mental stability, and controlling karmic illnesses. An example shared was of a 20-year-old eczema condition that was healed solely through three months of regular chanting.
  • According to spiritual science, current environmental remedies are superficial. Due to rising spiritual impurity in the world, the five elements (Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether) which regulate the global climate are being negatively impacted. The best way to restore purity in the environment is through spiritual practice (sadhana). Only then can India truly become Atmanirbhar (self-reliant).
