Uttarakhand Himalayan Tsunami – Root cause analysis

Please find embedded a thought provoking article on the possible causes of recent tragic events in Uttarakhand.

This is an initiative of Bharath Gyan with Art of Living.

Few salient aspects of the possible causes of the nature’s fury have been attributed to the following:

An Overpowering situation: plethora of Hydel power projects being built at close proximity of the the main river itself.

Shifting the silt: damning the river and in the process restricting the perennial enrichment of the plains by mineral rich silt from the hills.

Footprints on the Himalayas: Commercial opportunities have presented themselves in such times and man’s greed to make the most of them without thought. Special focus on Badrinath & Kedarnath

Barren without the Banj: pivotal role the Banj tree had played in maintaining the ecosystem of these hills. A bacteria called “pseudomonas Syringae” and Cloud Burst

Power of Energy, Shakti: the Dhari Devi temple had a subtle connect with the temples of Kali Math and Kedarnath that were designed and installed at specific angles with each other to balance the Shiva – Shakti energies.

The same have been dealt in detail in the document.
