In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said that the Lord Himself is the seed-giving father and material nature is the mother of all living beings in all shapes. Thus mother material nature has enough foodstuff both for animals and for men, by the grace of the Father Almighty, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. The human being is the elder brother of all other living beings. He is endowed with intelligence more powerful than animals for realizing the course of nature and the indications of the Almighty Father. Human civilizations should depend on the production of material nature without artificially attempting economic development to turn the world into a chaos of artificial greed and power only for the purpose of artificial luxuries and sense gratification. This is but the life of dogs and hogs.&lt;/span&gt;<br /> <br /> === SB Canto 2 ===<br /> <br /> &lt;span class=&quot;q_heading&quot;&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;When the air is transformed in course of time and nature&#039;s course, fire is generated, taking shape with the sense of touch and sound. &#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;/span&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;span class=&quot;SB-statistics&quot;&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Vanisource:SB 2.5.26-29|SB 2.5.26-29, Translation]]: Because the sky is transformed, the air is generated with the quality of touch, and by previous succession the air is also full of sound and the basic principles of duration of life: sense perception, mental power and bodily strength. When the air is transformed in course of time and nature&#039;s course, fire is generated, taking shape with the sense of touch and sound. Since fire is also transformed, there is a manifestation of water, full of juice and taste. As previously, it also has form and touch and is also full of sound. And water, being transformed from all variegatedness on earth, appears odorous and, as previously, becomes qualitatively full of juice, touch, sound and form respectively.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;/span&gt;</div>
