"Nothing can make man happy better than pure, fresh and friendly natural environment."
Do you love the nature? I love to travel to the national parks where the natural environment including animal species is protected because not only can I enjoy the natural beauty, calm and peace of natural environment but also can develop my friendly spirit to the natural environment including animal species by treating it. with loving-kindness, compassion and true wisdom. Nature gives the benefits of the survival of all forms of life and a spiritual pleasure to all beings in the planet. Moreover, nature acts as our teacher because it shows us the true Dhamma of Impermanence (Anicca), Suffering (Dukkha) and Non-self (Anatta). So we can gain the true wisdom through seeing the nature with mindfulness. Now I would like to take you to Kha-ka-bo-ra-zi National Park, with its width of 1,472 square miles, which is located in Naungmung township of Kachin state, the northernmost state of Myanmar, established in 1996.

Kha-ka-bo-ra-zi is the highest mountain in South East Asia with 29,698 feet in the height. It looks like a white iceberg in Antarctica because of its always being snow-capped and the weather is cold around the year. We felt as if we were in Antarctica.

Stunning natural evergreen forests, hill pine forests, moist upper mixed deciduous forests made me calm and peaceful. Trees and plants are our friends or benefactors because they provide us the necessities of our life, such as food, clothing, shelter and medicine, etc. for our survival. Therefore, we should not destroy the forests and should pay a spiritual gratitude to them by protecting. Our loving-kindness and compassion should be extended beyond people to include animals and plants. In Kutadanta Sutta of Dighanikaya, our Lord Buddha taught, "If one were to sit or lie down under the shade of a tree, one should not cut a branch of that tree - if one does, then he is an evil betrayer of friendship."

Ecological conservation is very important for the attainment of enlightenment in terms of Dhamma because a healthy environment is a natural decisive support-condition for the development of paññā (wisdom) and an unhealthy one can lead to dosa (anger) which may be so strong that. One Kills Performs Other EviL or deeds. Destruction of The Destruction of Environment is ourselves. The Protection of Environment Protection of ourselves is Not Because all Can Survive Without a Healthy Environment.

In these days, the natural and safe habitat of animal species is becoming extremely rare in the world because of economic expansions. Some Species Have Already Lost from The World and some are Endangered. We should Not Kill them Because Killing others is Killing ourselves. All Beings are linked to each Other Through Nutritional and symbiotic Relationships. If some Become Extinct, then it Will Lead to others'. Loss. So we should show our Loving-kindness and Compassion to Animals by Not Killing them.

We also met indigenous Local People, Rawang, Lisu and Myanmar -Tibet Ethnic Nationals in Kha-Ka-bo-ra-Zi. They live a simple, happy and healthy life, earning their livelihood by farming. They are honest and friendly. I felt that to have meet with them is like coming across with gods and godesses from the World of Tavatimsa. Their innocent, honest, friendly and lovely smile is in my memory forever.

In conclusion, After Returning from a visit to The Mount Kha-Ka-bo-ra-Zi National Park, I Have realized that MAN should Develop positive Attitude towards The Environment, Appreciate ITS value and Treat it with Loving-kindness. Developing a Friendly. Spirit to The Environment by trying to Protect and Consume it to exist Without being Destroyed ITS MAN is The Character of a good or traveler. Finally, I have decided that I will be going on a visit to other national parks with loving-kindness, compassion and true wisdom because the natural beauty, calm and peace of the Mount Kha-ka-bo-ra-zi National Park have made. me so impressed.
