Abstract:<\/strong> The accelerating ecological crisis of the contemporary world\u2014manifested through climate change, environmental pollution, deforestation, and biodiversity loss\u2014demands solutions that go beyond technological interventions. Ethical, philosophical, and cultural perspectives are increasingly recognized as essential for sustainable development. In this context, ancient Indian wisdom offers a holistic ecological vision rooted in harmony, restraint, and reverence for nature. Indian philosophical and spiritual traditions perceive nature not as a mere resource but as a sacred, living entity governed by cosmic order (\u1e5bta). Concepts such as Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (the world as one family), Ahimsa (non-violence), and Aparigraha (non-possessiveness) foster ecological responsibility, compassion, and sustainable lifestyles. This paper explores key ecological insights embedded in ancient Indian traditions and examines their relevance to contemporary environmental challenges. It argues that integrating indigenous ethical values with modern environmental practices can contribute to a more balanced and sustainable relationship between humanity and nature. Revisiting these ancient perspectives may help reshape global environmental ethics and promote long-term ecological well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
