 Closing Thoughts
Our Objective is to achieve the totality of circular life of
the village republics in ancient India, where every activity
had a beginning and end in nature.

Modern society has transformed civilization into one of

superior experiences, comforts and materialistic
possessions. Yet, everyday, we hear of a new tragedy or
new affliction human activities are responsible for. If we
were to design our requirements in such a way that at the
end of it all, we return to nature, not something that will
degrade in a thousand years, but something that can be
utilized by nature herself, we will have established the
symbiotic relationship, we strive for.
