Following our ancestors, they worship the sea as God,\u201d she said, while suggesting ways to protect and conserve the environment.<br \/>\nThe President arrived in Odisha on a four-day tour on July 6.<br \/>\n\u201cThere are places that bring us in closer touch with the essence of life and remind us that we are part of nature. Mountains, forests, rivers and seashores appeal to something deep within us. As I walked along the seashore today, I felt a communion with the surroundings \u2013 the gentle wind, the roar of the waves, and the immense expanse of water. It was a meditative experience,\u201d she said.<br \/>\nMurmu said it brought \u201cto me a profound inner peace that I had also felt when I had a darshan of Mahaprabhu Shri Jagannathji yesterday. And I am not alone in having such an experience; all of us can feel that way when we encounter something that is far larger than us, that sustains us and that makes our lives meaningful\u201d.<br \/>\nIn the hustle and bustle of the daily grind, people lose this connection with Mother Nature, the President said, sharing pictures of her walking on the beach.<br \/>\n\u201cHumankind believes it has mastered nature and is exploiting it for its own short-term benefits. The result is for all to see. This summer, many parts of India suffered a terrible series of heatwaves. Extreme weather events have become more frequent around the globe in recent years. The situation is projected to be far worse in the decades to come,\u201d Murmu said.<br \/>\nMore than 70 per cent of the Earth\u2019s surface is made up of oceans, and global warming is leading to a rise in the sea levels, threatening to submerge coastal areas, she said.<br \/>\nThe President said there are two ways to meet the challenge of protection and conservation of the environment. \u201cBroader steps that can come from governments and international organisations, and smaller, local steps that we can take as citizens,\u201d she said.<br \/>\n\u201cThe two are, of course, complementary. Let us pledge to do what we can do \u2013 individually, locally \u2013 for the sake of a better tomorrow. We owe it to our children,\u201d Murmu said<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_19537\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19537\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img
